fSCT AND GOSSIP IN MONEY MAnTS Capital Not Alarmed at Nomi nation of Wilson—New Pol icy in Effect. By B. C. FORBES. yEW YORK. July s.—Capital will show no fight over the nomination of Woodrot* v Ison. Nor would it have been stam by the selection of Clark. Under wr.n.i, Harmon or any other candidate. < anital's new policy is to woo the pub >.,. more and the politicians less. If it can ■....■ are itself with the great mass of the ..pnple it will not spend millions in win r ng over the good will of the politicians. Thrice is he armed who hath his quar rel just." Capital is conscious that its r , .. lion is less open to condemnation than if was five years ago or ten years ago. There has been a financial housecleaning. Til nooks and corners have not yet been Lwept clean—they never will be until a prescription for remaking human nature has been discovered. But in certain di f-onr the cleaning process has accom rTshcd much. Take our great railroad ~-■-a'ions How often do we now hear .rs t' rm corrupting the dominating state sciy.itures' How often are wholesale inn’ting- of railroad properties attempted mdai Have not the relations between t hr -ailroads and the public undergone remarkable improvement? Then capita! has become reconciled to re<i reductions in tariff Schedules It ex pert few favors in this connection from the progressive Republicans and fewer still from the Democrats. But standpat no longer a fetich. * • What our financiers do not view with comfort is the prospect nf three parties in il>r- field for the next four months. The . nc thing that the financial world can not withstand is acute uncertainty. Once it kn-'V’ • what is to be done it can adjust Itself in advance, but if it be kept guess ing. ’f it be doomed to stay In the dark. It becomes nervous. The worst feature of the political outlook, from the capital istic viewpoint, in the confusion, the com tdiration. the doubt that a triangular con test will involve. There Is still a feeling in erta>n influential circles that Roose velt will withdraw, despite his protesta inips to ’he contrary. Tr<]a.’ optimistic interviews will, no doubt. be given out by Wall Street peo ple assuring everybody that everything is all right and that Wilson need not bp re garded as a menace. Rut it will be pass ing strange if no outburst of nervousness witnessed between now and November 4 Incidentally, should the stock mar ker suffer a severe slump, a great many potential investors would act promptly. Quite a few are waiting and hoping for just such o break. Here is the philosophic summation nf thr nolitico-eebhornic-flnancial situation drawn up by one of New York s promi nent investment banking firms: It is evident from the political de- of the last few weeks that the lines of cleavage between the two established parties have become less sharply drawn on the old issues, and s hat jn their stead new forces are being created which, for better or for worse, appear destined to determine ’n what extent the so-called ’’pro gressive' politics are to- govern the' attitude of the ‘nation Inward vested." <anital. ’ ' ria’ business itself is not worrying '■ver-much about the future solution ■ f these problems is evident from the steady flow of trade ino.cated by the increase in total clearings (notwith standing the great reduction in activ ity on the New York stock exchange), by the material advance In basic metals: by the increasing demand for labor: by the decrease in the number of idle cars. and. to mention no. other, b' 'he volume of our foreign trade, which reached during the fiscal year Just ended the enormous total of four billions nf dollars, easily the largest total in the history of our country. -W these results were achieved while • '•r general complaint of indifferent business was being pretty generally all over the country, it seems pertinent to ask whether a more active development would really have hr on healthy. p are of no two minds in assert ing that anything in the shape of a hon n . would have produced a much -mind condition, and would in c' ’ably have, laid the seeds for fu ture retribution. • • • nanimity politically has not yet been " r 'd at by Big Business. If all three ■r-"-laics run “Wall Street” will have ;Ff 'cuity m agreeing upon a favorite. Real Estate For Sale. Real Estate For Sale.

PHONE IVY 5717 COTTON CROP FSB BEWnTHSGE Rains and the Cool Weather Cut Prospects to Per Cent. That the Georgia cotton crop will be far below ths- f last j c indicated by the July report o£ the state depart ment of agriculture made public- today. Commissioner Connor's figures show cotton prospect? in the state are but 64 per cent of those of 1911. Corn shows but little better prospects, the estimate of the corn crop being 70 per cent. The estimate given on Jias and forage crops is 86 per cent and on the potato crop 83 per cent. In discussing the present conditions. Commissioner Connor says: "In nearly every instance the reports show that the cause of present condi tion and prospect of the cotton crop is due to excessive rains, cool weather and. in a great many eases, wilt or black root. Excessive rains and cool weather have also greatly affected the corn crop. A great number of reports showed that bud worms are proving very damaging to the -corn crop." TAFT PLAYS GOLF AT SUMMER HOME; CLUB MEN PAY RESPECTS BEVERLY, MASS., July 5.--Presi dent Taft motored to the Myopia golf links today for his first game nf the summer on his favorite grounds. The president sat alone in the machine with the, exception of the chauffeur. Behind him as usual trailed three secret ser vice men in another automobile. The visit of the president bad been anticipated and there were quite a number of club members to extend the compliments of the season. The presi dent was congratulated Upon his Chi- I cage victory. Regardless of the heat President Taft enjoyed a lively golf game, after which he took a ride up the north shore. Mrs. Taft and her daughter. Helen, were in town doing some shopping in the cool of the early morning. They greeted many shop people pleasantly recalling their names readily. President Taft still has quite a few Influ ential friends in financial circles. Roose velt. too, has not alienated all his old capitalistic backers Nor Is the Pemo cratic party without supporters below Malden Lane, for the course pursued by the Republicans has aroused the Ire of many corporate interests. The truth is that no cut-and-dried program has been arranged by Wall Street." Whether there can be a "get-together" movement this time Is somewhat doubtful, altlioug: birds of a feather do have a habit of flocking together. * • * A banker enjoying a high reputation for acumen made this astonishing remark to me the other day: “The big people down here have made all the money they.need for the present. They can afford to let the people have their own way for a while." • • ♦ And it looks as if the people were de termined to have it whether capital ar quiesces or protests.

July 5 Buoyancy of Canadian Pacific in London was reflected ; in a 1-point rise in that issue in the New j Yorjr market at the opening today. Out of Canadian Pacific the list was ir with prices representing gains and losses in about equal fractions. United States Steel common. Amalga- ; mated Copper and Baltimore and Ohio each declined %. Union Pacific was sup plied for a recession of ■"■«. Erie, common gained %. while the preferred was up % Lehigh Valley and Reading each gained %. There was a good deal of speculative Interest attached to dealings In the Hill stocks Great Northern preferred. North ern Pacific and Great Nortern Ore all made fractional gains, selling at the high est level they have reached in a number of months. The curb was easy. Americans in London were narrow. Canadian Pacific was strong in London In the late forenoon a number of buying orders appeared, and many stocks which had shown weakness in the early trading rallied slightly and a steadier tone pre vailed. Business was exceedingly dull In the afternoon, the professional* being about the only traders in the market From this source a number of lb 11 • ■'•"’g rail roads and industrials were offered lot sale a' slight concessions. Selling of Union Pacific by professionals was ac companied by a good deal of talk about prospective tariff legislation and board room sentiment on this stock was decid edly bearish. There was also some pres sure exerted against Lehigh Valley, which yielded 1 point. The market closed irregular, govern ments unchanged; other bonds steady.
