Electric Opens Weak, but Braces Up on
Bullish News From Boston-Philadel-
phia Gas Maintains Its Grip
Eastern Speculators ShakY.

Eastern Spectators Shaky.
The only features of special interest de.
veloped in local stock circles during the week
were the alterations of the strength and weak
ness in Electric, and the general steadness of
Philadelphia Gas. Sales yesterday were ITO
shares; for the week, 1920, of which 1,795 were
Electric and 944 Philadelphia Cas- AS a gen.
eral thing, the close was at about the top.
Electric was dull on call yesterday Boston be-
ing quiet and few orders IN. After call, how
ever. it firmed up on the strength of more
bullish feeling at the Hub. and the receipt of a
few orders, presumably from the same place.
On call it was quoted at 1lh and III. The later
impetus sent it up to about Il, which was the
Boston figure.
Mr.. Westinghouse was expected to reach the
city last night aud return to New York to-
morrow. 1t is now known that he has been in
constant communication with the committee
of creditors and 1t is believed that his state
ments to them have been satisfactory.
Trading was dull at the wind up on an unsat-
isfactory bank statement and widespread
feeling in the East that monetary stringency
is impending. There may be some ground for
this apprehension so far as Wall street is con.
cerned, but funds are easy for legitimate busi-
ness, and likely to remain SO during the season.
The scare" is no doubt due to the bad condi-
tion of Argentine finances and a few European
failures. In this country the situation seems
to be steadily improving.

The following, from a correspondent in
Orange. n. J., shows conclusively that good
roads enhance land values. There is q wide
field in Western Pennsylvania for this kind of
improvement: "a few years ago 1 bought Is

Orange, opened up the land and put in the
best kind Of l2-inch Telford road. This, with
other improvements brought the expenses of
the land to me up TO slOa front foot. Pretty good
price, you say? Well, wait minute. l sold
that land pretty nearly as fast as l could draw
up the deeds, and sold none of it for less
than $50 front foot. There were II acres on
the other side of the road owned by the same
man OF whom bought. This he offered me at
the time ] bought the first tract for 81, 200 an
acre, but didn't buy it. The improvements
which put on the adjoining land gave this
second tract a boost also, and l was very glad in
the course of year to buy it at s., 600 ar acre.
Improved 1t as l did the other tract, and in
less than two months sold enough of 1t to pay
the purchase price and cost of improvements,
and still own part of it which can sell to-
day. If l want to- for Sl00, 600. Every dollar that
have made out of that land I made because

Signs Of a Settlement.

The impression is gaining ground thot build
ers and carpenters have agreed upon the basis
of settlement, and that there will be no strike.
On this subject gentleman who has cousideIa-
BILE building on hand said yesterday: 'It seems
to be in the air that the eight-hour question is
good as settled. / have no special authority
for saying so, but l believe there will be no
strike, and almost everyone with whom have
talked during the last few days is of the same
opinion. hope it is true. There Is SO much
building to do in this city and vicinity that
strike would be positive calamity. With this
danger out of the way, think we will have
busy season."

strength. Naturally the Changers, and espe-
cially Rock Island and Atchison, were most
prominent. but Louisville and Nashville led the
advance and Chicago Gas, under buying for
western operators, scored handsome gain in
the first half hour. News from the meeting Of
directors and creditors of the Union Pacific was
reassuring, and while that stock failed to
answer until late in the day, prices in the gene
raj list crept up from 1612 per cent, with
special sharp gains in a few low-priced shares.
After the announcement of the arrangement
agreed upon by which the floating debt of the
Union Pacific is to be taken care of, there was
a selling movement in that stock which wiped
out all of its advance. Realizations in the gen
eral list became more abundant, and prices
yielded all along the line, the last hour being
marked by steady though slow decline. This
downward movement. which was helped by the
efforts of traders to bring about rection, was
sufficient in many cases TO entirely wipe ont
the early gains, and many of the active stocks
actually closed lower than last evening A
slight rally occurred in the last few minutes
but the market closed rather heavy, generally
at insignificant changes from the opening
prices. Final changes are quite irregular, and
while Buffalo, Rochester and Pi5tsburg is up
1ss and Southern Pacific ~ per cent, National
Cordage is down ] 1S per cent. and active stocks
generally show only slight changes. Sales of
listed stocks aggregated 1874, 600 shares; unlisted
