FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SATURDAY Feb 20
Practically the only considerationprices of etocks here today was
continued weakness or the foreign marketsIn Paris especially the security marketseemed to be demoralized The feelinghere was that it was surprising considering
all this that there was not more liquidationhere for foreign that the smallquantity of foreign selling that did takeplace was an indication that speculativeholdings of our securities abroad were muchlees than had been commonlyThe extreme weakness inParts was not known here however until
after the close of tho Stock Exchange
Consols it was said were offered on theLondon curb at 85H or A of a point below
the figuro at which they sold early in thelay while in Paris French rentes declinedfrom 05 to 93M or to the lowest pointtouched by them in the last cloven yearVheOier therefore the full effect of
the disturbance abroad was measuredin local prices today is doubtfulDespatches from the other werenot illuminating as to the precise causeof the trouble but the extended com-
mitments of some of the largo operatorsitt stocks on the Continent of Europe areprobably at the bottom of tho matterThere no doubt that the approachingfortnightly settlements in Berlin andare awaited in those citioi with noapprehension Political affaire in Europeare unquestionably more disturbed thanthey have been for many year and havebecome so with comparative suddennessThe judgment of tho that alto-
gether too high an estimate has been formedIn past of the military prowess and gen-
eral moral financial of
the and that if eventswhich seen to be near at hand haIl givethis conclusion permanent basis a reali of whoseeffect whi bo felt in every of Europecannot be avoided The war cloudwhich has arisen in the Balkans is reallypart of that whose shadow has already fallenupon the Far East However necessary andfortunate it may be for the interests ofmankind that the great question involvedInthese affairs should be definitely andfinally answered their asking now has beenunexpected by many acute and far seeingstudents of political affairs and has causednatural uneiwlncs in the European finan
own market this week has been oneof the dullest and mcst apathetic in thehistory of the Stock Kvlmnge Jt mustbe said that development if theysuch as to afford little substantialfor speiulative operations for the declinewere yet hardly adapted toing of securities Railroad earnings usreported were generally bud duo in groutmeasure of course to tho extremely un-
favorable weather that has prevailed thusfar throughout the winter but whichstill are unpleasant readingthat at the end of the wed a double holi-
day awaited added to tho desire fortion and that there was a fair possibilitythat the long looked for derision in theNorthern Securities case might at anytime be handed down strengthened thofeeling of speculators that it was well forthem to bo out of tho market for thepresent Individuals who felt that theymust be engaged in speculative venturesof some sort found ready opportunitiespresenting in tho grain and cotton marketsThe most sensational price movements ofthe week tool place on the produce ox
There wheat rose to the highestseen since the famous Leiter
in 1893 tho advance taking itsostensibly in the very large milling de-
mand for the commodity in our owncountry and In the fears owing 1o thewar scare of a possible curtailment of thosupply of the article available for consump-tion The real roason of the advance wasof course the ardent speculation in wheatwhich has been artificially excited by Chicago
Revised and official estimateboth of private persons and
of insurance companies by the Baltimorefire show as was anticipated by allservative folk that these will be aboutthat popularly set forth at the time ofdisaster There seems again a perplexingstate of affairs in the iron and steel tradeThere is a bettor inquiry for finished steel
tho railroads in particular sendwhich have been delayed aw
long as they could ho for rails andarticles of tho kindand there is talk of anadvance in the list prices for bar iron Onthe other hand pig iron hal developed aplainly weaker tendency The Southernproducers have lowered their prices to theparity of those made at the Northern fur-naces and the impression in the trado isthat a cut in Southern pig iron beyond theseprices is near at hand Money rates continue exceedingly easy time moneynow available at 4 per cent for nix monthsand at 4 per cent for periods runninginto 1905 but whether or not this ease repre
lack of demand for it and woulddisappear if the demand increased
is a question concerning which there ismuch dispute
Opening quotations o the stock markettoday were at rather larger net declinesfrom the previous closing than has recentlybeen the case Thereafter tho marketcontinued dull although with a weakundertone until tho publication of the bankstatement After this event the marketrallied a little but immediately againdined so that final prices were about atthe opening figures The bank statement-was superficially very favorable as itshowed an increase in cash of 7544400or fully as much as the most optimisticforecasts yesterday had made out an increase in deposits of 1668100 and a decrease in loans of 5131100 The banksurplus now stands at 37506030 The
at this time in 1899 was jo334oooWith this ono exception the surplus-for tho week was thofor similar 1897 whenowing to the practical paralysis of busi-ness it stood at 55615050gain in cash during the week undoubtedlyrepresents to sonic extentto in preparation for tho call soonto be mode of the Treas-ury upon the depository banks for 20 per
