BUYS UP ATCHISON
Union Pacific Gets a Voice in
Its Affairs,
SAYS WALL-STREET RUMOR
Explanation of the Strength Exhib
ited by Both Stocks in the New
York Market Bank State
ment Not Surprising.
NEW YORK, Sept. 2. Busy surmise, -which
has been seeking for an explanation of the
persistent strength of Union Pacific alighted
today on an alleged purchase by the Union
Pacific interests of several hundred thousand
shares of Atchison, thus insuring it an influ
ential rolce in Atchison affairs and strength
enlng its control of the whole- trans-continental
railroad situation. It must bo said for this'
rumor that there was better authority for tho
credence attached to it than for some of he
many others and the sagging tendency of the
stock on the report did not shake the faith
of its believers. The heaviness of Union Pa
cific was attributed to profit-taking by the
speculators who had followed the movement,
and the decline showed no signs of precipita
tion. The most decided effect was caused to
Atchison, which made a rather aggressive ad
vance, especially the preferred, which, was
unusually active.
The United States Steel 6tocks also devel
oped great strength without special news. The
details of the August exports showed some
very heavy declines in values for Iron and
rteel compared with July, but the buyers of
the steel claimed to have encouraging advices
of progress In the revival in the trade. The
general list wao decidedly neglected and moved
narrowly and not more than was accounted for
by slight sympathy with the special strong
stocks.
The bank statements offered no great sur
prises. A loan contraction was not unex
pected, but It was not as largo as was hoped
for and was not sufficient to prevent a fur
ther substantial depletion of the surplus re
serve. Transfer of loans frpm banks to trust
companies is known to have been made to a
large extent, which Is & process that does not
affect the actual volume of credits nor the
ultimate reserve obligations upon the New
Tork banks. The market closed sllghtlyirregu
lar, with a few fresh advances Just at the
last. Total sales of bonds, par value,
$2, 195.000.
Misgivings over the stability of the price
level of stocks have been more or less in evi
dence ell the week. The prevailing tendency
of prices, however, has been downward, and
the activity of trading also marks a decline
in epeculative interest. As the period for the
maturity of the crops approaches, epeculative
attention is concentrated on the outcome. In
reviewing the course of the late rise in
stocks, It is easily recognized that the crop
prospects on which it was initiated have been
materially modified. Severe reduction in esti
mates of all three of the leading crops, wheat,
corn and cotton, have had to be made, and in
the cases of cotton and corn, tho process is
still going on. The estimates of tho com
crop generally accepted In Wall street this
week have been settled at aboutr 2,000,000
bushels, or below, with the corroboratory
testimony of authorities on whom the finan
cial world places high value.
The fact is impressed by a process of
retrospection that a flood of rumors and as
sertions has been made the basis of enor
mous buying of stocks and wide advances In
their price for days and even weeks and
thrown aside and forgotten without being real
ized. Expected dividend increases, great -combinations
and absorptions of railroad systems
and alleged contests for control in the open j
market have been made to feed speculative
excitement continuously and then relegated to
the obscurity of unwarranted rumors without
material after-effect on the prices which they
had served to enhance. The week's principal
rumors centered about Union Pacific, but they
proved so numerous and contradictory as to
impair their' Influence and were dropped out
of consideration.
The withdrawal of funds from New Tork by
the Interior has continued, and former esti
mates of the unlimited sufficiency of the bank
ing surplus have been revived by the rapid
rate of depletion of three previous weeks. The
rising course of loans has had a deterrent
effect on speculation.
The reports to the Controller of the Sep
tember 6 condition of National banks through
out the country disclose a state of reserve in
the South and West that offers no prospect of
less than a normal call upon New Tork for
Autumn requirements.
Reports of railroad earnings and of the
course of general business have been regarded
as .satisfactory, but .have lacked influence on
etocks, owing to their agreement with expec
tations which had Induced previous operations
in stocks.
The bond market has been Irregular and
somewhat less active. United States 4s and
the old 4s registered, have advanced J4, the
2s and the old 4s coupon Vi per cent on call
during the week.

NEW YORK BANK STATEMENT.
Decrease In Loans and Deposits foe First
Time in a Month.
NEW .TORK, Sept. 24. The Financier
says;
One notable feature of the official state
ment of the New Tork Associated banks last
week was the decrease for the first time
since the week ending August 27 of loans
and deposits, the former by $2,464,000 and
the latter by $10,123,500, making the net
increase in loans since the above date of
$39,447,600 and in deposits of $86,780,300.
The cash reserve showed a loss last week
of $5,633,000, which sum very nearly cor
responds with the loss as estimated upon
the basis of the traceable movements of
money during the week, there being a dif
ference of only $405,500. The required re
serve was reduced through the decrease in
deposits by $2,530,875. which sum, deducted
from the loss In cash, left $3,102,125 as
the reduction In surplus reserve to $26,
251,025. Computed upon the basis of de
posits, less those of $23,437,100 public funds,
the surplus is $32,110,300. The decrease of
$2,454,000 in loans, as. above stated, was
probably due to the liquidation of specula
tive accounts in the stock market during
the week, the result of the unfavorable re
ports as to the yield of corn. The state
ment foiled to balance, the sum of the re
duction in loans and of the loss of cash be
ing $2,036,500 less than tho decrease In de
posits. Circulation Increased $611,800, and
the largest gain in this item was by one
bank.
Comparisons of loans show that eight
banks reduced this item by $2,750,000 nef
these banks lost $3,200,000 net In cash.
Compared with August 27, Ave of the larger
banks show a net expansion of $27,500,000
in loans, a net reduction of $28,000,000 in
cash (or nearly the whole of the loss Indi
cated by all the banks In the association)
and a net gain of $1,000,000 in deposits.
The statement of averages of the clearing
house banks of this city for the week

ENGLISH CROP IS SMALL J
YIELD OF HOPS SMALLEST SINCE
1882.
Latest Estimate Places it at 275,000
Bales Heavy Buying in
. California.
A London cable received in this city yester
day said:
"English crop will not exceed 275.000 cwt.
Market advancing. Growers will not eelL"
A cable from Manager Henley, also received
yesterday, put the yield at 280,000 cwt. Com
menting on the cable news, a leading hop
man said:
"These figures ehow that the.English crop is
the smallest since 1SS2. In that year hops
went up to $1.25 per pound. There was con
siderable surplus carried over then from .the
year previous. This year there Is practically
no carry-over stock on hand. "What Is .to
prevent hops going as high as they did In
1SS2, or even twice as high? The Oregon
growers Tiave the situation in their own- hands.
They can keep prices down to the present
figure by selling, or by holding they can put
the market up almost wherever they want It."
It was learned yesterday that Herman
Kla.be r fc Co., of Tacoma, bought 1100 bales In
California at 2627 cents, which leaves
only 6500 bales in first hands in that state.
Klaber also bought several' lots at Eugene at
27 cents. Phil Nels. of this city, yesterday
paid 27 cents for 100 bales at Independence
and a number of smaller sales were also re
ported. A private letter received yesterday morning
from a S. May & Co., of Albany, N. T.,
said the crop of that state would amount to
60,000 bales.

CALIFORNIA CURED FRUIT.
Most of Principal Lines Out of First
Hands. "
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 24. (Special.)
Most of the principal lines of cured fruits are
practically out of first hands and offerings by
dealers are small. Peaches aro scarce and firm
at top quotations. Pears are about cleaned up
and aVricots are In small supply at steady
rates. Apples are rather easier. Figs are
weak and declining Larger sizes of prunes
have lately developed a little strength. Other
sizes are weak and low. Old raisins are mov
ing out at steady prices. Eome new seeded
have been sold, but packers are not anxious
to do much business until the old are out of
the way. Raisin and prunegrowers had ample
warning of prevailing rains and not much
damage was done.
The storm restricted . trade in all the local
markets today. Wheat speculation was tame
considering Chicago's strength, and Decombcr
closed with a small net loss. Spot wheat was
firm. Barley was stronger for spot and fu
tures. Oats were stead. Receipts of hay
were very heavy and the market weak.
The fruit market was dull. Owing to the
destruction of moat .of the crop in the north
ern half of the state, grapes are expected to
sell higher next week.
The prolongation of the storm Is causing
firmness in potatoes and onions. Tomatoes are
advancing, as the remainder of the crop- is
practically wiped out.
Hops are firm.
Dairy products are quiet ' but steady. Re

cheese and 19,000 dozen eggs.

Most of the Gain Is Lost on

CHICAGO. Sept. 21. Failure of foreign grain
markets to reSDond to the aharr ndrsTiM ir
yesterday caused considerable liquidation, in

timent was quite weak. Initial quotations on
December were oft 5s0c to 101o at
$1.12 to $1.13. May was a shade higher to
0c lower at $1.13 to $1.14. Shorts took
advantage of the break and covered freely,
bringing up prices to last night's closing fig
ures, December selling up to $1.1334 and May
to $1.14. The advance -was not held, however,
renewed profit-taking causing a moderate re
action. In addition there was eome selling on
a denial of the rumor that the French gov
ernment contemplated reducing tho import duty
on wheat. A report of a Canadian Pacific of
ficial also had a depressing Influence. Ac
cording to that official the crop damage
stories regarding the situation in the Canadian
Northwest were grossly exaggerated.
Toward the latter parti of the session, senti
ment suddenly veered to tho bull side. An un
confirmed rumor of possible complications in
the war situation Involving Great Britain and
Russia caused active covering by shorts. Dur
ing tho last half hour, most of the gain was
lost, renewed profit-taking causing a decline of

December o higher at $1.1401.14. Final
quotations on May were o up at $L16
