FACT « GOSSIP IN BUSINESS WORLD By B. C. FORBES. HEW YORK. May 3.—The head of an Important stock exchange firm said to me the other day in answer to a suggestion that he should do a certain thing: •T would gladly do it. but it might be construed as an act of antagonism toward the money power.” ■'l thought you were dependent upon no one: that you ran your business on your own capital?" I replied. •'That's true We have money enough to carry on our affairs, but occasionally when we are carrying large amounts of stocks for customers we find it convenient to borrow tem porarily. But even were this not so 1 could not afford to do anything against the powers that be. You ought to know that.” "So there is a money power?" T queried. He looked at me quizzically. "You did not come down to the street for Ute first time yesterday. Therefore I need not reply to that question.” "Kind of humiliating position for a man 0f your standing to be in,” I ventured "But what can you do about it?” he asked Then he changed the subject. Some time ago an article appeared in this column on the text that there is not a monev trust, but that there is a. money power A publisher of works on finance a week or two later was discussing the contents of this column front day to day. -Of course, I took it for granted that what you wrote about there being a monev power was inspired.” he said. "Inspired?” I asked, puzzled. 'By whom?" "Oh, by your people,' he re plied This was the very first innuendo I had ever heard that anything appearing in this column was "inspired.” The as persion was rather humiliating, especially as it came from a responsible source. 1 had Imagined that these simple comments on economic matters were at least .straightforward, that they rang true, that i”hev breathed sincerely and that the? bore no earmarks of having been ma chine-made, out to order and according to samples supplied. * < best some others harbor similar ideas, mav I be allowed here and now to pay "vour people" the compliment of an as surance that never in even-the remotest, the most roundabout or any other wav have they sought to influence by one hair's breadth a. single word here writ ten. Common justice demands such a tribute. It Is a tribute that could not with equal honesty be paid by writers on everv paper in New York city. XS hen. however, such tolerance, such broadmind edness is shown. Iszit not rather galling to have sinister motives imputed to one's employers? • • • When, therefore, the view is here ex pressed that there is a money power it means that such a view is conscientious ly believed to be founded on fact. The interview reproduced in the first para graph is not drawn from imagination. Nor were the statements made by an avowed enemy of the money power. They are statements such as any banker or broker of note in New York city could make were he to speak his mind—indeed, similar remarks are as common as cur rency in Wall Street. Since the proposal to investigate conditions came up quite a number of financial people have expressed their cordial (though secret' approval. The yoke has become irksome. Rather, the consciousness that an offending step might bring disastrous reprisals is grow ing more bitter and unbearable. Bankers not hand-in-glove with the money power arc yearning to be able to call their souls their own They fondly hope that something will be done to re store to them that sense of sturdy manli ness which is every man s birthright. Their hopes, however, are tint gener ously blended with confidence. They can not prescribe a sure remedy. The sys tem is SO subtle, so intangible, so word less and wireless, so much a thing "felt" in the atmosphere, a spirit rather than a body, a consciousness rather than a thing of flesh and blood. How can you grip such an offender against free play? There is nothing to put the finger upon, nothing to point to and declare: Thia is the money power. It is without form, yet far from being void. Invisible a= the wind, it is as powerful, on occasion as blighting. Merely because a thing is invisible must its existence be denied" XA e can not see the air we breathe Messrs. Untermyer and Farrar are promised the widest possible scope in con ducting their investigation. They should he able to unearth much of interest, al though the airy, unwritten ways of the money power will be hard to nail to the counter. The revolt against financial overlordism has not yet become open and avowed, but circumstances may so shape themselves that a strong lead will be taken in throwing off the yoke. I,of Wall Street rise up in arms, let there be con certed action under inspiring leadership and f « money power may fall, as all ty rant!. fall sooner or later. At the. mo ment deliverance is not within sight, but the investigations may beget the neces sary courage. COTTON MARKET OPINIONS. Harden. Stone * Co.: It Is still a weather proposition.

May 3. -The cotton mar-1 ket opened steady today, first prices un-i changed to 4 points lower.

HAYWARD & CLARK'S DAILY COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS. May 3 The greatest danger to the trad*> now seems to be exaggerated and false weather news. Judging from prix ate reports received yes terday afternoon, on which the market was worked up. the whole belt was flooded, whereas in fart there were only scattered showers, mostly in Mississippi, though heavy at some points. The map this morning shows partly clnudy 10 cloudy but no rain in western states, and 1 scattered showers In the central belt. Indications are for partly cloudy, and probably* scattered showers, which in the greater part of the belt are considered beneficial. Liverpool barely followed the recover?’ in our market; spots 9 points higher; sales 10.000 bales There was more general buying in our market this morning, based on prospects of unsettled shower? weather, and in anticipation of bearish mill takings in the afternoon visible statement. The market, however, depends largel?- upon support in New York, and as this did not appear promptly, prices dropped 12 points on little selling. The political situation in this country is now also more freely men tioned in discussions of future price pros pect 3. A crop inspector wires the following In regard to the delta; "Memphis. Tenn : Magnolia. Jackson, Grenada to Memphis through hill section of Mississippi, farnpng preparations very backward. Very’ littl* cotton up. Much land not plowed. Soil in poor condition. Grenada 10 Memphis not more than 60 per cent plowed. As a whole, poor start." (tfficial rain records name only five points in entire belt as having had a heavy rain yesterday, and these are all in the same limited area in the lower cen tral belt from which we have hea.J of heavy rains right along. The favorable conditions prevailing in the greater por tion of the belt ’seem to be overlooked. RAN GE JN_ N EWO RLEA N S FU TURES.

New Orleans Times-Democrat: Again the market appeared friendless. but around the day's low levels support de veloped and when the iaient learned that the continent was buying actual cotton in the New Orleans market, that export ers were buying Mav contracts here, and that raip was falling in some sections of the central belt, the aspect of things changed, and the market climbed points higher than the bottom. Os course, bulls immediately exploited their belief that the sharp decline had been brought about b?- sentiment rather than by the facts of the general situation, while bears spent their lime explaining that the weather is not nearl?’ so bad as claimed and that progress nf a marked character is being made in many sections. Addi tional are further complicating the situation in the Mississippi valley and man?’ of the reports from sections in Ala bama and Georgia, and portions of the west are not establishing fresh confidence In the new crop promise, though good stands are reported by other sections.

Show Losses in Heavy Market. By CHARLES W. STORM. NEW YORK. May 3. -Rejection of the anthracite operators' tentztiv® peace agreement by the men causer! heaviness among the hard coal carrying railroads at the opening of the stock market to day.. Reading, the most important of the hard coalers, opened at 176. 3 « lower than Thursday's closing, and within a few minutes its net loss had reached one point. Lehigh Valley was off Canadian Pacific showed pronounced strength on bullish operations in London, opening at 25«t*. a gain of m. I'nlted States Steel common lost The entire list was heavy. Among the initial declines other than those men tioned were: Amalgamated Copper Baltimore and Ohio Atchison I nion Pacific was weak, losing lon vigorous selling Southern Pacific was unchanged. The curb was firm. Americans in Ixmdon held steady, but operations were sluggish. In the lale forenoon the tone was heavy, and the prices of May issues showed losses of I point or more from yesterday's close. The trading element on the floor regarded strike developments as a sufficient inducement for aggressive bear operations. Steel common and Reading were prominent in the down ward movement. American Cotton Oil and American Can were strong, advancing more than each. There was vigorous selling in the mar ket this afternoon, the market making sharp declines, and for the first time this week there was evidence of speculative liquidation on a heavy scale. Union Pa cific was forced down 1 point to and a loss of over 1 point was sustained in Reading, bringing it 3 points under Thursday’s closing. One of the most im portant market factors was the with drawal from the bull position of an ele ment that has been aggressively ad vancing prices since shortly before March 1.
