The result has been, of course, that the insurance oompanies lave bad severe losses.

This, of course, tends further to depress the market for high-grade bonds. It also means that, these companies aro temporarily out of the market for bonds durieg a period more or less prolonged. .in which they are catching up the usual amount of caeh reserve they consider it prudent to carry, e„,This has happened this year, and so a very substantial buying power has been removed from the market for high-grade .boeds temporarily. , ,,Everilthing considered, the best judges of the bond market are of the opinion that the price of bonds has about reached "reek bottom." Money is showing an un- reietakable tendency toward lower prices, and while England has been out of the market now for a considerable period any resumption of buying from that quar- ter, not to mention' our own fire insur- ance companies, will Goatee high-grade bonds to resume their former heights or at least move up from the very attrae- tive prices they now command. It is easily seen, then, that fluctuations in bond prices are natural.

Though the municipal eleotions are still almost five months away, mayoralty can- didates are already jockeying for position. It has been assumed that Mayor Geary will tot again seek re.eIeetion. He has had three years of it, which, under or- dinary circumstances, is supposed to be enough for any ream The last two terms he 1ms had on easy terms: last election belied no opposition and the year before no really serious opponent. But the Mayor's chair he attained in the first place only by hard atrugglee. The Bret time he, was a candidate he offered him- self as a" lamb for the slaughter. That was in the historic fight that Dr. Bekttie Nesbitt made for the.position. Vesbitt's opponent was Joseph Oliver, a Liberal. Nesbitt was beating the party drum for all he was worthand would certainly have beaten Oliver in a single contest. Recognizing this, influential Conservatives who did not relish the idea of Nesbitt in the city's chief magisterial position in- duced Geary to run, with the almost open- ly' avowed, purpose of splitting the Con- servative vote, so that Oliver would-be elected. The plan worked, and it is G. R. Geary Toronto has to thank for keeping Dr. Nesbitt mit of the Ma,yor's chair in the days when. the Farmers' Bank was just getthig under way. TIIE HOCE.EN-GEARY FEND. Some might have been afraid of the less of prestige which a defeat would bring, but it didnot. work out that way in Geary's ease. When Oliver relinquished the offtee, Controller Hocken._ aspired to the succession. Under other circumstanc- es, Hocken might have beaten Geary, for his sources of strength in the Conserva- tive party were much the sante, and ap- parently about equally ,as strong as Geary's, and he had many influential friends among the Liberals. But the Lib- erals who don't expect many of the sweets of oillce-in Toronto remembered Geary's service to Oliver and there is little doubt that in the strenuous struggle that re. suited Liberal votes decided the issue. That was three years ago. After a year's absence from Council Mr. Hocken: returned to the Board of Control. He.did not again essay to defeat Geary, though the animosity kindled between them has never died .out, and not infrequently blazes up at board ineetings. , But all the time Controller Hocken htis regarded him- self as .the 'logical successor of Mayor Geary. And aX the Moment he probably expects that in the year of grace, 1913, it will be Mayor Hock'en. His chances are, undoubtedly, good, but there art several possibilities which' have to be reckoned with. In the, first place, Geary has net definftely announced that he will not he a candidate again. During the present terra hie name has been ire- , quently mentioned in connection with permanent civic and other positions. But should he seek a fourth term as Mayor, Controller, Hocken may give him another fight, and unless Geary eompletes the year more aggressively than he has be- gun it Hocken might oust him. - CHURCH A NEW ASPIRANT.
