Dlstrlbatloa Under Way. Th new phase that has been die. cerned ln observant quarter 1 da-' srclbed as "distribution.'' That 1 to say, the July r.covery Is held t. have, reaoneo ita point of eulmlnation. th ; point where th Important operatora . aell the stocks that they -bought on 1 such a declln as ended In June, Wer tnis view correct, one might expect to selling com Into the -market, with yielding of prloes under th pre. ur. . , , ,. As a matter of fact, sine th sharn run-up Tuesday afternoon ad Wed nesday morning tha stock market .has been, called upon to take a considerable volume of selling. Stocks that went up th faatsst cam. down. th. mast on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, Tha market acted In a way to eon firm the view that "distribution" wag under way. . - , Dletrlbutioa doea not take nlaca. however. In on day er two or three. It .cannot take plaa all at once. For tnat reason those who hold to the theory that the period ef distribu tion haa atartad rather exnsot that tha market will be supported for a period - f a week or so, while th sellln I. going on. After that, there would be expected to develop resumption of the declln that ha been the major ' movement for something like two yeara.. Whether auoh an avsntuallty ' will follow rallies and reaction may be looked for during th coming w..lt an only be told after th vent. Tn foregoing 1 given as an Inter. pretation of a stock market In which there Is eopcededly not a targe puhllo Interest, and which Is almoat wholly In ths hands of th sooslled profes sionals. Thar. I. . . broad puttll. speculation today to tak. into ao count as a factor of gr.at uncertain ty. Perhaps It Is becaua. of the nar row professional oharactsr of the mar ket that thoae who atudy epeoulative movement ventur aa confidently aa th.y da to deecrlb. the present period ss one of distribution. Wealth Nut latrreated. The Important part of the "public" In the market consists of those men of wealth who have ample funds with which to engage In large speculative committments. There re few of these, If any, In ths street- today. On th contrary, soms of those who hav been In th habit of carrying iarg line of stocks are in soms cases selling, not , merely "staying out." Ths eollaus In prices or a few. apeelal stocks lndi- rated clearly last week that some large noiaers or securities wer. under the necessity of disposing of soms of the holdings.- Nor Is the amount of money that In the old days could ba counted upon to be available for stock our- chaaea forthcoming this year. A cus tomers msn in one of the largeat houaea In 'the street said the other day that whereaa In tha old daya he could count upon 1500,000 from a few of hi euatomers to be used- for buying stocks at thla time of the fear, tha amount mat naa neen forthcoming haa not ex ceeded 160,000. , - ln the meantime funds of the bank available for stock msrket- use ara not plentiful. Tha call money rate during the past week showed .a per slstent tendency to stiffen. Ten day ago the rata dropped to m per cent, tha lowest In two years. Wail atreet made much st this low rate for money, and many predictions were made of continued eass In the money market Aa It has turned out. the rate had risen in a week to six per cent. The sic , per cent for renewala reached oa Frl- . day waa tha flret time that figure had obtained since July 20th. It waa atated aa a fact during th week that there waa considerable all Ing of stock market loana by th . banks. Also, out-of-town banka have been withdrawing their funds from New York. The latter mov. b.gan wh.a call mon.y declined to 1 a.r cent, and there waa llttl profit to oat- Bide lenders to have their money bringing that aort ef return 4iere. Again, there ia the wsstsra dsmand for money for financing the crops which appears regularly In Auguat and It ia poaslble that on account of the heavy movement of wheat thla year f the marketing centera the demand for funde has been f.lt earlier than uauat. Competent authorltleo on tha money situation do not look for any lowet call rate during the month than sts r p.r cent. Mo Bim froflea Saaa. Th.
