It 1o neeeasary -to go toack he record of previous years in which preetdenUU lection hare occurred to find any- paral'el for the stagnation-in-which "the se cujlties' market, lay last week. The dwindling -volume of activity fell by Friday to total of 71,000 hare'- There was a perceptible, if alight stirring of. demand in the bond dlvis ion of the market In spite of the profound apathy In the stock division. TJsual'y such. a demand springs up m anticipation of half-yearly disburse ' mtents 6T dividend and interest In Jan uary and July. On this occasion It was Indistinguishable until after the turn of the half-year and was very moderate then. The large offerings of new Issues which have been placed on the market In the laet few months following the success of the Pennsyl vania sale of 140.000,000 of first mortgage bonds are held partly ac countable for the blunted investment - demand. " It la obvious that Jack of money market resources plays no part la the sluggish Investment demand. The half-yearly requirements1 In New York wre unusually heavy, Including pro vision for disbursements approaching 4200,000,000 subscription payments for 111. 825. 000 of new Northern Pa cific stock and withdrawal from the banks of something like 125,000,000 by tne trust companies to replenish their proportion of reserves In com pliance with a newly effective provis ion of the law. There was besides the notice from the Secretary of tho Treasury of recall of 145,000,000 of government deposits payable by July lS'th which in expected to converge hvrgely on the New York banks. Not withstanding thee large requirements money on call in New York did not rise above 2 per cent, and that hut momentarily, with a subsequent lapse of 1 per cent. Ians on time carrying over the end of the year fell to a I 3-4 per cent. rate. Facilities for holding securities are thus made abundant and there is no pressure of liquidation. The steady tone of the market Is a consequence, in spite of the paralysis of demand. Besides the ease of the money irmrkrt, the good promise of the country's" crops la a sustaining Influ ence on stocks. Confidence In the crop outwirae was not Impaired last week In spite of twin unfavorable reports affecting the winter wheat crop. This conndenci Jn me progress f the crop keeps up the hopeful spirit which Is felt In a revival of business activity when the crops begin to move. This hopeful spirit is dis cernible In the tone of the market re views and In the expressed views of railroad traffic official CLEWS' FINANCIAL TiETTER.

Correspondence of The Obesrver. New York, July S The first six months nf the year have cloned, showing a de cree of recovery from the October panio which fully equals. If not surpasses, all reasonable expectations. It has been a period" of somewhat painful convalescence,' but the Improvement hss been pro nounced and substantial, and If sustained for the remaining six months of tho year, will go fur toward obliterating the effects of last year's disasters? Of course there are many unsatisfactory features still re maining; trade and Industry are restrict ed, and more or less disappointment and discomfort prevail In consequence.

So much liquidation-and housecleaning have taken place that the financial situation has been rreatly elarified, although frequently at the expense of losses and ' difficulties i Which naturally cloud the vision of those tipon whom they have lullen with great severity.

The crop movement has already begun.--This will make' increasing -de mands upon the railroads, -as-well-aa pro ylding a stimulant, to other traffic. The , most unfavorable feature la the situation la the crop situation; too rqueh rain, and low temperatures during- thsrlast "three weekr having made eorn very backward, and caused a decrease In acreage in many section,,- The -4owlandg, hare, been se verely Hooded; not -only to the injury of com, but also to wheat, which may show a slight deterioration In the next govern ment report, There li still plenty of tune, however, for corn ttf regain lost ground; and the condition of wheat was so high a month agd as to leave ample margin for a decline in' condition without seriously Impairing the fine prospects reported on Jane 1st. In brief, the crop outlook Is not as brilliant as a month ago, hut no serious panger has been done, and there Is abundant time for Improvement. Cot4 ton actually showed an Improvement durT ng the past month, and the outlook for that erop Is as satisfactory as. could rea sonably be expected. Money" t a drug; both call and. time rates being excesslvly low. Our bank reserves are piling up rapidly, and hav now surpassed the record,, touching 1400. 000,000. or $120,000,000 more than a year ago. This plainly Illustrates the desir ability of -an elastic currency system, in which we are sadly lacking. Our currency should now be contracting because It is more abundsnt than needed. Instead It is expanding at a time-when not -wanted," because regulated by the Dona maraei rather than by the demands of commerce and Industry. A.s a result there is a tend ency to Inflation, which is apt te retard rather than sccelerate a heaitny ana per manent readjustment to new conditions. Thts over-redundancy" uf funds ts a more powerful element in the security market than U generally appreciated. Many se curities are now as high as a year sgo. and this In the face of business depres sion and shrinking dividends. TWn can only be partly accounted for by the spirit of hopefulness, which soowb itself in holding securities for better times which are sure to come. Were It not fpf the great abundance of cheap money, many securities would not probably be selling at their present level. The market lead ers, however, have unlimited ninas si ti.olr nnmmand at low rates, and are In a position to sustain the market against j all ordinary adverse influences. Briefly, j stocks are in strong hands, the floating j uprly is llht, liquidation has neen thorough. weak points nave neen thoroughly eliminated, and tho big men find little difficulty In supporting me market against all attacks. The boar elemrnr In the market Is small, and spec - ulatlon Is on a much more restneten scale than usual, for no one cares to part with stocks when believing that the worst Is over. The technical position Is consequently a strong one and opposed to lower prices: albeit that current de velopments are frequently of an unfavor able character. Political scares anrt crop scares must be anticipated. There Is also Dosslbllity of labor troubles In the event of an attempt on the part of the railroads to reduce wages, since It must be remembered that organized labor has not yet accepted Its share of the business reaction which has lately fallen upon the country. But aside from these three dan ger points, there Is nothing In the situa tion of sufficient Importance to counter act the Influence of an unlimited supply of abnormally cheap money, which is still the controlling element In the stock market. An element of some "concern Is the course of oaf national finances. The fiscal year -eloses with a-redarttotr "Of IBO.OOfl.OTK) In revenue, 48.000,000 of this loss being due to the shrinkage In Imports following the panic. There was also a considerable loss In Internal revenue, much of which was attrlbutabla to the prohibition move ment. A year ago. however, the govern ment closed Its books showing a surplus ot $8?.O00.00O in receipts over expenses, which means a loss of about J150.000.000 In the twelve months. Congress has complicated matters by making extrav agant appropriations at a time when econorny shtiuld have been the watch word. The Treasury, however, is still In a strong position;, the government bal ance being about 1293,000,009, of which more than $150,000,000 Is in the depositary tanks. This may be reduced shortly by a call for 150.000,000. HENRY CLEWS. Charlotte Cotton Slarket. figures repiesent prices paid wagons.

With some, .whA in addition to being endowed with unusual physical power, possess those qualities of heart and mind that enible them to realize the best in life. It Is almost impossible to associate death. Such Is It In the case of "Jim" jMcNeely. Ills old college friends recall with pride the fine rushes j Which he made on the football field, as one of Davidson's best halfbacks,; the cool determlnatlur and Christian manliness whlch-he always used in playing the game. They remember, too, the sincere regret on the. part of the student body when "Jim" wan compelled by weakness f the eyes to give. up his college course, a regret based not simply on his great, value as an athlete, but on the greater value, of his strong character. It was'a bitter disappointment to him, for he cher ished the idea of a ftntuhed-collrgtate course with additional study looking towards a profession: but God knew best gild our friend was willing t trust Him.
