fil arial Dispatch to The Star.
KBW YORK. December 5.r~It was again
the case today that it was impossible to go
very far beyond the lines of the money
market in any consideration of stock market
conditions. Opening and renewal rates
for money ranged around 18 per cent, which
wert- the highest figures quoted during that
time of the day at any period Of the pre
Vailing stringency. Further transactions of
currency to tlie interior were made through
the siibtreasury. and this morning's tigures
showed that the hanks have lost to the subtreasury
since last Frid-y an increased
num bringing the total up to Ji.U34,000. Current
estimates put the actual loss, including
today's transactions, at about $7,<XK),000.
These tigures should be considered in
the light of the amount of surplus rest
rves reported in last Saturday's bank
statement. Condit ons corresponding to
tho :c in the market for call loans prevailed
in the time money market, where 10
per cent was bid for accommodation running
over thirty days. It was almost useless
to uiscuss any matters of general
Importance, of which there were very
few. aside from those relating to t>-a
money market.

of the Treasury, In which he intimated his
Intention to employ what he considered
attrphis funds of the government for the
relief of the monetary situation, but on
the other hand, according to private advices
irom Washington, the Secretary saw
110 immediate need for taking action. In
thait event he may have overlookeu the
rates now being quoted for commercial
paper.
Conditions Abroad.
The London stock market was reactionary
because of revived anxiety as to money
maikot conditions at tliat point, due to the
resumption of gold exports to Egypt.
Nevertheless there was no substantial
change In the rates for either call or time
loans at that point. For some reason foreign
houses were quite heavy buyers In
this market, notably of United States Steel
common, which was, in fact, one of the
Strongest stocks on the whole list.
Tht- market opened Irregular and fluctuated
in an irregular fashion throughout the
business session. In the main its tendency
was heavy, but not remarkably so, in view
of the excessive rates which were quoted
for loans on call. As had been commonly
assumed, in view of yesterday's- increase in
the rates of dividend, on Michigan Central
and L,ake Shore, the dividend on Sew York
Central was raised today to an annual
basis of ti per cent, to which circumstance
the stock gave some early reflection, but

to the increase in the capitalization of the
company, which it was assumed would

Drainage Congress In Session.
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., December 5.?
The national drainage congress, meeting in

here today with many Irrigation and

parts of the country.
George A. Ralph of Washington, D. C-,

[BULLS AND BEARS'
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 5.?The professional
element in Wall street continues 1
bearish, principally because of the high
rates for cail money, but shrewd stock market
observers, Including Internationa? bankers,
confidently believe that Secretary Shaw
will soon come forward with a comprehensive
relief measure. From the confidence
displayed by some interests it would seem
that they had received direct Information .
that such action will positively be taken in
the near future. An international banker,
in discussing the monetary situation, called
attention to the fact that the rather heavy
withdrawals for inerlor points could not be
* "* ? ' - - i I _ il J

that, on the other hand, the demand for
money from those centers could reasonably
be construed as representing the legitimate
requirements of general business about
which Che Secretary of the Treasury has
had so much to say.
It is generally conceded that while most
of the trading recently has been of a highly
professional character, the head of a commission
house which has Important foreign
connections says that the buying of the
standard stocks for foreign accounts for
some time has been large la the aggregate.
?
* ?
Those who take an optimistic view of the
stock market base their opinion not only
upon the belief that the money market Is
to be relieved, but on the Idea also that if
the issues of new securities about which
there have been persistent rumors are actually
to be made general, conditions In
financial circles are almost certain to be
favorable. In addition to the rights, which
it is believed will be announced on Great
Northern, St. Paul, and Canauian stocks.
It is believed that the Atchison stockholders
will have the rieht soon to subscribe either
to an additional amount of convertible
bonds or common stock. While it has been
generally rumore'd that the next increase in
the authorized capital of the Atchison would
be in the shape of convertible bonds, railroad
men are Inclined to believe that common
stock will be put out Instead of bonds.
It has been the theory of some well-informed
interests that such action would not be
taicen until thecommon stock was established
on a t> per cent basis. Some railroad interests
still cling to this theory, but others are
of the opinion that because the demand
upon the traffic facilities of the Atchison
has increased at such an unexpectedly rapid
rate, the new issue may be put out before
the next dividend period comes around.

The sharp advance in New York Central
in London this morning tends to make
credible the statement made by many observers
of the market yesterday that had
it not been for a sharp and sudden advance
In money rates yesterday New York Central.
on the increased Lake Shore and
Michigan Central dividends, would have
closed higher. The action of the Lake
Shore directors has called attention to the
potential value of the assets in New York
Central's treasury. Many important interests
confidently believe that within another
year the Lake Shore dividend will be made
15 per- cent more.
The company's real earning power is estimated
at around 30 per cent, so that
anrnle margin remains for a large increase
in that dividend.

CLOSED THE ARGUMENT.
Supreme Court on the Question of
Sheriff Shipp's Contempt.
Tlie Supreme Court of the United States
today finished its hearing In regard to the
legal aspect of the cases of Sheriff Shipp
and others, under prosecution for contempt
of that court in connection with the
lynching of the negro Johnson at Chat
tanooga, Tenn., last March.
Former Attorney General Judson Harmon
of Ohio and Messrs. Louis Shepherd
and George M. Ohamlee appeared for the
defendant, and Solicitor Genera. Hoyt
closed for the government.
Mr. Harmon contended that as Johnson's
case was not one which involved the construction
of the Constitution of the United
States there was no right of appeal to
the federal courts, and that consequently
the Supreme Court did not acquire jurisdiction
and should not proceed to inflict
punishment for contempt, but should leave
the lynching offense to be dealt with by
tlhe state courts as a crime under the
state laws.

much assistance.
About two hours arter tne wrecaea automobile

firemen received a call from the vicinity
of 1st and R streets northeast, and when
they reached there they were surprised to
find that Mr. Wardman's property was in
flames. The blaze was extinguished before
