Aug. 26. Call mency at 8 per cent upset the calculation Wednesday of , the .bull leaders in Wall street. In the morning the mar ket was strong with ' nearly, every Issue showing - material gains. - It seemed, howevea, that the short traders had been eliminated almost completely. ( Early in the day It became apparent that : money was going to be tight in the afternoon and the professionals be gan selling freely. - When the receiver ship i of Bethienem Motors waa an nounced the whole market became -weak and continued so through to the close. Final prices were about the lowest of the day. Net losses were not large because the early advance had .: been rather sharp. A few stocks made ma terial net gain, notably. Consolidated Cigars, Iron Products, General Electric. May Department Stores and American Sumatra. The speculative leaders were the largest losers because professionals attacked them with concentrated selling. In spite of the weakness of the mar ket, ther is no change in the sentiment of leading bankers regarding the near future of prices.. They have turned def initely bullish. "' ,;-.- .-, The presidential election is worrying the Democrats. They imagine they see a conspiracy on the part of the banks to ruin business and blame it on the Democrats. v . ,... .; $15,000,000 Loan of Morris & Company Is Floated Locally The new' $16,000,000 loan ef Morris & company, nationally known meat pack ers, was announced tms morntngf witn several Portland bond and Investment houses handling the issue locally. .
