CHARLOTTE DAILY .OBSERVER, AUGUST 31, 1903. . j 7 Financial: and Commercial ; FINANCIAL REVIEW. f Nw Tork, Ai. 80. Natural con ' dltions have often combined to roaka . jAufiut a month of importune in the 4 financial markets of the world and vwn monta now enaing nw to ' exception, albeit ome of lt more In . tereetlng events 'miht be Attributed i to unusual causes. Eoremost among :' these -was tha failure of a prominent , commission house under circumstanc es that caused an investigation into stock exchange - methods. An offl cUl inquiry is now under way With a view to-amendment of rules gov '.erning operations on the exchange so ' as to make lmpoasibler'any recurrence ' of last week's extraordinary incidents. "f Aside from the unsettled conditions " 4 that led up tar and immediately fol l ', lowing the stock exchange failure re- ; i ferred to, stocks moved during, the past week very much as they had done earlier in the month in lrreg '' . ular and uncertain fashion. It is in- . terestlnr to note that up to the last : few days the twenty leadfhg railway ' issue ' showed nd material change from the level of the previous f ort- - night. - Later, however. under 4 tha . stimylue ot a move in Southern pa , . elite common which sent that stock 'up to a new high record, almost the ; entire active list moved forward. In point of activity, as well as strength, the Harriman issues have again been ' foremost, trading In Union, Pacino v , and Southern Pacific common for the . past; six days aggregating . the' enor i mou number of 1,100.000 shares, or , 't about SO per cent., of the entire . V week's operations. ' . ';,v ,- -y - Industrial and ' mercantile - eoHii tlons show a somewhat better tone. The floods in Georgia and the Caro Unas, however, have wrought serious f " havoc to cotton and a great number , . of industrial properties, - while their effect upon general business through ,., ; out the stricken sections has given t rise to some apprehension, -f : : - It is a striking coincidence that the past week should have witnessed new ' low -records for cotton, . with very " V heavy liquidation, the whole result " ing from the previous week's collapse - of a large cotton pool. Money is . . working easier at all the principal monetary centre. In the local mar -ket, the most interesting feature was s the -steady shipment of gold coin to -Canada, The movement aggregated . . well, over IS, 000,000 ' and was said to represent the discharge of Lon ,' '.don's obligations to its colonial de i" -pendency. .v.

Cpirespondence of The Otwerver. ' New,, York, Aug. 29. Last week's ex- " eesslve plunging operations fortunately created . only a temporary disturbance. y Incidentally they proved the haxardous - position of the short side of the market. -i ; There are comparatively few stocks for - sale; partly, because investors and the public , recognise that recuperation la the erder of the day, and partly, because (he ,: big operators- are opposing any important t reaction at this . time. As leng M Ira. '. provement in industrial and mercantile t egalrs continues It will be dlffleult to check the present hopeful temper which . prevails In financial clrclea Wall Street y always looks far ahead, and is now ac "s : tively- discounting all the Improvement . -that is likely to take place before next January. It may be over-discounting that ', probability; but if so, it Is only moving in accordance with precedent. . By far ' the. most important element In -, J , the stock market Just now is the world wide ease In money. This ease la not so much . a consequence of Increase , In the gold supply as some would have us be lieve, "although that factor ' cannot be ignored. The present glutted condition ,' of the money market Is chiefly attribut-.-. able to the accumulation of funds which ;- ; always follows panic, regardless of the t production of gold. Business activity, has . been at a minimum, and funds came out V of hoarding as confidence, revived. These V - two movements caused a piling up of Idle funds In the banks, which now hold ex s, traordlnary reserves In spite of the fact i that the crop movement has begun, and '"V that usually 'currency Is flowing freely to the West and Bouth at rkla season. , They also account for the record-breaking ' accumulation of gold In the American, and European banks more than the enormous . production of the Rand', district. What is the effect of such An accumula tion of Idlerfundsf The owners must In .evltably seek" better employment than af " 'forded by current low rates on call and time money. Since confidence, though rising, Is not fully restored and caution Is necessary In making investments; cred v K espands slowly. ' Only-tha beet bor- - rowers and ,the ; best proposals ;re wel ' come at the bank. Discrimination Is ettll necessary; the result being that large holders of idle money are obliged to in ; -rest in, the better class ; of securities. Money can be much more profitably tra i ' ployed Jn , these lines than In ordinary lending; good Investments thus become scare., and. the big speculator with an i abundance of cheap money at his eom- - mand Is afforded an unusual opportunity. ' This explains the ' present . stubhornnesa ' of the market to yield to, srtlflclal pres- ' sure, also the" strong- undertone shown In ', "" the face ol unfavdrable . news. - Cheap ' ' money is not only -a powerful but under - tha circumstances It Is the most natural stimulant to business that could bt uA pected. With the prospect or low rates ' of interest for several months to eome ' there is llUle chance Jor any. Important ' ' reaction in either financial -ot mercantile -Circles, certainly not until money rates v ' advance or reaction Is ; produced from ' causes not yet apparent. . ' The course of foreign exchange will be 1 watched ' with unusual Interest this aa , tumn. Lately there has been a better sup ply of cotton and grain bllB. Europe be i ing a lago- buyer of cotton and wheat. Trade' ccftwJIUons favor small Imports and . liberal exports, or a large excess ot the latter In eur favor; therefore It Is a mat ' ter of interesting conjecture as to how Europe will settle her Indebtedness to us. It Is probable that eur obligations abroad, 'which were so heavy ia.1901. have been Vfly settled, and it Is unlikely that we . aV permit our credit abroad to pile up - V?any extent when Interest rates ithere art as low if not lowsr than .here, tfore ' ' over, Europe is not inclined to send back American securities, when It Is recognised - that we are' on the op-grade. .'There seems to be no alternative then, but for os to take gold in payment for our prod- ' -ucts, little as we are in need of the pre cious metal. In fact, it would be bene ficial if we could return the balance of - our takings ef last year, and M these are to remain and be augmented the effect ' WHY JAMES LEK GOT VTELL.

A further advance may. be In prospect: but those with big gains are likely to step out betose long and leave what profits remain to the late buyers.

VrATCHlXQ VERMONT ELECTION, Outcome of the. Battle of Ballots in Creen Mountain State Awaited With lnteret by Both Great FartW Repabllcan Campaign in the East .to Be waffd With Vigor. New York, Aug. 30. The outcome of the election Tuesday In Vermont is awaited with keen Interest at the headquarters of the Republican and Democratic national committees In this ltv. Tha shnwlnf -mnrio In t'nla State ,ln the matter of the number ot voters who go to the polls and the gains or leases to either party in com parleon with the vote of four yean ago will influence In no small degree the shaping of the campaign in all ot the Eastern States. It Is conceded that the Republican oartv will win. if the nluralitr is re duoed toy reason of Republican apathy, then it will stir that party in the East to renewed, energy-In . trying to arouse enthusiasm and interest. Chairman Hitchcock found a dis position on the part of Eastern State managers of the Republican campaign to claim everything and advise that the real work be done In Western States. To a large degree 'Mr. Hitch cock shares this view, but at the same time has urged that there be no- let-up in the vigor of the Eastern campaign. Senator Hale, . of Maine; Charles F. Broeken, of Connecticut; Senator Crane, of Massachusetts and -a num ber of others prominent in national Republican councils, have . advised That just AS earnest worif tie tone by the national committee In the Eastern States as thousrh every State were re garded as in doubt. President Roose velt is reported to have tbld the offl dais ef the congressional campaign committee who called on him at Oys ter. Bay- a few days ago that the way to prevent political apathy from get ting a hold on the voter Is to keep out of political headquarters. It Is likely, therefore, that the campaign in the East will hs every bit as .brisk as in western States, where it la known that the race will be close. .

CONDITION OP COTTON. August Deterioration Said to Be Leas Than Normal. Correspondence of The Observer. Greensboro. Aug. 28. Cotton prices are not much changed from those ruling a week ago. Fluctuations in the meantime have been firquent ahO most ot the time higher, based on the rain and floed report from the Carolines and Georgia. Torrential rains have fallen In the pied mont sections of the States named and the damage to quality and quantity of the crop will prove to be considerable. From other sections, the crop promise is for exceptionally large yields and the complaints Indicate that taking the cot ton belt as a whole, the August deteriora tion has been less than normal. Trade conditions indicate but slight Im provement and a full consumption of cot ton even at low prices Is only remotely probable. The trade believes they are confronted with a large supply of cotton in prospect and spinners know they have a limited demand In evidence for goods. What the solution will finally be must be developed, nereafter. - , Cotton at 8 cents per pound and corn at $1 per bushel and meat at 12 cents a pound, does not make a very cheerful prospect for the cotton farmer.
