THREATEN MARKET
Signs of Unrest Spreading—
Irregular Market Predicted
for Immediate Future.
Special Dispatch.
New York, March 15.—The weekly Auan*
cial review of the backing house of Henry
Clews A Co., says:
The stock market continues to show a
healthy undertone. Prices have undergone
a further hardening tendency and the up
ward movement has receivd no serious check
beyond that imposed by occasional profit
faking. Conditions affecting values are still
of a generally favorable nature. Tho great
railroad and industrial corporations of the
country are all actively employed and en
joying reasonably good profits. Railroad
earnings are increasing, both net and gross,
and the advance in New York Central's div
idend had a decidedly strengthening influ*
cnee up.gi other lending railroad shares.
Some of our principal industrial corporations
are also reporting very flattering faults,
emphasizing the fact of general trade activ
The monetary situation remains satisfac
tory: loanable funds being plentiful at mod
erate latM to all good borrowers. The tend
ency, however, is for somewhat higher rate*
of interest as we approach the first of April
settlements. Western banks have an unusual
amount of loans outstanding, and tha loan
account of the New York bank* is steadily
increasine: while local reserves are .now
down to below $10,000,000. it would cause
no surprise, therefore, if lenders should
show more conservatism in making loans,
and bankers are already discriminating in
their purchases of commercial paper, only
the highest grades finding a good demand.
Of course, higher interest rates would tend
tp ••heck the anticipated exports of guld: bo.
too, will the larger foreign purchases of
American securities which have recently been
made.
There haa recently been a much better de/
maud for bonds, Europe having taken n ver/
considerable portion of the freest, issues.
This movement ha* been an important ele
ment in strengthening the stock market, and
is one of th* beat aymptvms curreut in the
financial situation. The speculative temper
ament on the stork exchange is certainly
showing more activity, as well as a healthy
division of opinion.
Our exports of merchandise arc still un*
duly small, owing to high prices ami the
persistence with which agricultural products
are held at first hands. This latter feature
was emphasized by tho government state*
meat of /arm reserves of wheat, which shows
that farmers are holding 30,000,000 bushels
more than a year ago. These figures fully
account for the shortage in exports of wheat
and raise the question as to what must be
done with tfti* surplus ns the new crop
draws near. All indications point to a big
acreage during this coming spring, and much
of the grain held bark may hau> to be
shipped later on at lower prices than now I
current. If so. this, too, would have an of
feet in restraining gold shipments. Wheat
is not the onlj product held back by grow
ers for high prices. Our farmers are pos
sessed with the idea of holding on and are
financially able to do so. The question Is. I
will they carry this policy too far and bring
on a reaction when ihe new crops approach? '
The most threatening clement of thp mar
ket is the labor situation. Sign's, of unrest ,
•re spreading in many -.dirggtinns. leaving
those who manage in a 1
state of much uncertainty «« io future plans.
The great textile trades err air nr
less embarrassed by the small margin of
profit between raw materials and finished
products. Consumers are seriously object ■
ins to paying ettfont high prices; hence. 1*- ’
toilers and jobbers are reluctant to slock j
up with merchandise qiarkets fbrir pres
ent conditions. Eren in the *te 1 trade high 1
nriccs did at one time check distribution, nnd •
in th* l mMOnty of inxtsnc recent orders
k been placed at slight con'*e»«ions from •
; prevailing a year ago. A similar pol j
<■- vould be wholesome u> many other de •
nartmenta of industry. '
For the immediate future an irregular
market is to be anticipated. But with the
underlying conditions sound nnd promis
ing no ssrioua reaction is to bo expected.
Rut after we get over the firs* of April set
tlements the speculative spirit is likly to
rise which will man increased activity and
higher prices.

Hubbard Bros. I Co.: The market re

With the material advance on pork on
th*’ northern market, the influence is materi
ally felt all oner the country. Brokers'
prices for tho first of the week indicate
lan advance on cured nieata of from one
fourth to one half cent per pound.
Country produce is holding firm and
' steady with tbe cooler weather. Eggs re
! mam stationery in price with a normal sup-
I ply. Chickens and turkeys remain scarce,
with no reduction on quotation*. But few
I coops are coming in.
llii l usual aiKGUnt of vegetables are coni
mg from the coast country to supply iho
; •'ity trade. As the spring advances the qual
j ity improves, but in conjunction with the
[ larger volume no advance is noted in prices.
The potato market is holding firm at un
(hanged prices. It was believed that by the
first of this week a reduction would be ob
•erred. However, with the remaining cool
weather and the fine onndluon of stock,
price, are bolding quiet and firm.
Some commission men are complaining
j jn»t onions are uprooting badly with them.

GODDSHOWING
’ Clearing House Report Shows
Over Double Increase Over
Five Years Ago,
I
The magnitude of the financial,
growth of San Antonio during a period
of five years is vividly shown in a state
' meat recently compiled by Earnest L. j
] Brown, manager of the bank clearing
' house.
This report indicates that the total
। clearance for the month of January,!
। 1910. was more than double the business
done for the same month in 1905. Ini
figures the report shows that the total.
clearance for January, 1905. was $22,-
"57,274.73, and for the same mouth:
1910, $45,380,746.73, showing a gain of
*22,6|J9,473.37.
From a commercial standpoint this 1
report is nn index ot' spleudid increase ]
and prosperity, and with the banks of;
the city better equipped to handle the:
increased trade of both the city and'
country this magnificent showing will]
undoubtedly be superseded for the same:
month 1911.
for tho deatrnetion ot the ticks that transmit '
: tho disease.
“Tho vats in which such dippinq is done;
shall have at their maximum working caper- *
ity a length nf not less than 40 feet at the ’
dip line, n width ot 34 to 40 inches and a :
minimum depth ot swim of 5’4 feet; the
.idea shall be perpendicular instead of slop
ing, the only elope below the dip Une be '
ing that at the end from whieh the cattle ' 1
leave tho vat. The slide board shall be 5 »
lo 5V4 feet long with a elope of not loss 1
than 45 degrees. Vats that am alreadv in
stalled, which have a length ot not less than
35 feet at the dip line, otherwise conform
ing to the above requirements, may be ap ] <
proved. The vats shall be covered when not | ,
in use. shall be so constructed that water j 1
from rains and overflow van not inn int , ]
them and that the drainage into the vats'
from the drainage pens shall be cut oft when
they arc not in use. ]
“The area under quarantine lias been re-1 ”
dured by more than 80,000 square miles |
within the last three years as a result of •'
the campaign being waged by tho federal 1 1
and staUi authorities for tho extermination *
of tho ticks, nnd as this work progresses the I
quarantine will be removed from additional
territory. - ' I
