STRINGENCY IS NOW FEARED.
JCEW YORK. Aa. 20, Under dale
is the banking bouse of
llenrr Clews Co Usued their regu
lar weekly letter, as follows:
A decided chance for the better has
r,irk in the stock market, and.
the sharp rise which started on Thurs
day quickly dispelled the wave of des
w.ntn that threatened the whole
business community a few days ago
a mtxAAt-ri m. chanre was of course
largely due to manipulation, based up-
n tit rhanre of oslUon by some of
the big operators who exerted such
severe and persistent pressure upon
the market for weeks past, being as-
itii bv an onranized effort to check
and ounUh the over-aggressive bears
It is of course Impossible to learn
whether the market leaders have fully
accomplished their purpose or not. The
presumption Is that they have, or the
market would not have been allowed
to recover in the rampant fashion that
it has done. It Is quite certain that
the decline of' the last rev months
has been materially Intensified by
speculative operations to accomplish
certain purposes, however much natur
al conditions may have justified lower
prices, and It is equally likely that
the market will now continue Its re
covery until a normal level is reach
ed. No one pretends that there has
been any change in Intrinsic conditions
during the last six months to corres
pond with a drop of 30 to 60 points In
good securities. - Granting that the
top of the boom was touched last year,
that the tide of prosperity has begun
to recede, that there Is still a large
amount of unmarketable securities, and
that we have been overdoing general
ly, there was no warrant for a decline
in stocks so utterly out of proportion
to other changes. A part of the decline
was certainly Intensified for speculative
purposes and if It proves true that
these have been attained a stronger
and active market Is in prospect.
wall street has undergone a pretty
thorough test. Ma r weak spots have
been eliminated by forced liquidation;
stocks have passed from weak into
strong hands, and thus the whole spec
ulative situation has been much clar
jnea py an unwelcome but necessary
house-cleaning process. The market is
by no means free from uncertainties.
far weak spots still remain; but there
is no reason now for the destructive
CI t rust which was undermining the
wnoie financial fabric before the turn
came. "Very likely. Important develop
ments will follow ' recent operations.
control of some properties has un
doubtedly changed hands, which may
result in facilitating ,ome oC the la
er deal that big financiers are known
lo have contemplated. How far these
plans may have been a factor In the
conduct of the late bear campaign will
nevtt be known, but It is fair to credit
.its managers with sufficient shrewd
ness to take sll fair advantage of tech-
Jilral conditions.' . . . .
Outside of the stock market the out-
sausfactory. As, previously
southern cotton planters, go-" i reac
tion is noticeable in the iron trade,
which Is our baslo Industry, but low
er prices are likely to invite a fresh
run. of orders which' could not bo prof
itably placed at the old level. Labor
agitation is diminishing and contract
ors know better what conditions . to
figure upon. The decline , in stocks
seems. to have temporarily checked
new enterprises, but this win cause no
harm, as conservatism now ; -will pre
vent trouble later on. The textile-situation
is confused by scarcity and
speculation in cotton, a condition .that
will be changed by the arrival of the
new ? crop In another month or six
weeks.;--"
The monetary 1 situation has, been
much relieved by local liquidation and
payment of foreign loans. More con
cern at the high level of loans is shown
than circumstances warrant, cons'der-
lng that the surplus reserve is 120,000,-
000 above the 25 per cent requirement.
Loans are but slightly above deposits,
while it should be remembered that
the banks could in addition loan upon
their capital and surplus, amounting
to- considerably over $200,000,000. and
still be within the limits of prudence.
As a matter of fact, . the New r; York
banks are in strong condition and
have cancelled many weak loans, but
the funds thus released have been
transferred to those with stronger cre
dit, thus improving the situation with
out making any apparent change in
the volume of loans. Very shortly crop
demands will assert themselves, so easy
money rates are not yet in prospect.
The chances of serious stringency,
however, are remote, for conditions are
growing more favorable to gold im
ports, - besides we shall have little dif
ficulty in borrowing abroad for legiti
mate requirements. A favorable feat
ure is the larger purchases of wheat
for export and the declining tendency
of foreign exchange. Some realizing
may be expected after th elate sharp
recovery, but the situation has been
greatly improved by the diminution of
the supply of weakly held stocks. A
better investment demand exists than
for several months, which has already
taken", a large supply of bonds and'
stocks out of the street.

: Boring for oil has been temporarily

lack of capital. Oil experts agree that

money gave out and the wvrkers quit.
At Monmouth oil was actually struck
at j 1000 feet when f stockholders
concluded . to . shut down for a
while. . In Lincoln i county the
drills had not reached a depth of 800
feet when operations were suspended,
and at JVale, in Eastern Oregon, it was
thought a few feet, more would find the
oil. when the men were ordered to drop
their tools for the time being. Drillers
are now. at work on the bank of , the
Willamette rivr below St. Johns, with
good prospects,, and it -is probable the
