The movements of Sugar and the Balti-
more and Ohio securities during the past
week have been in such sharp contrast
that they have attracted almost universal
attention among market people. Sugar
usually leads the entire market, beginning
declines and taking the front in important
advances. During the past week the stock
has had a bad tumble, resulting In the low
est price in more than year and in net
decline OF a dozen points or more. The
Baltimore and Ohio securities have adj
vanced and at the end of the week are ma
teriaily higher than at the beginning and
very near TO the highest price they have
ever attained. II should be noted that al
though prices generally have not advanced,
they have been more in harmony with the
Baltimore and Ohio securities than with
Sugar The question as to the future course
Of Sugar is one OF the locked doors. No
body outside Of the very inner ring knows
IL the Sugar dividend is 10 be cut or passed
in March. and hence nobody has any right
TO predict whether Sugar stock will 60 be-
low par or continue its sharp recovery be-
gun two days ago. In the face OF this I'M
certainty it is a most fortunate thing that
the street generally seems inclined TO di-
vorce Sugar from the remainder Of the
market. II may also be stated as fact
well understood by market people gener-
ally that If the public could be persuaded
by this uncertainty 10 keep out OF the
stock and devote its attention TO more sta
bic issues Il would be much better for the
public and for the general market. Sugar
is a blind pool. the worst in the list The
only people that have ever made money in
II are those that have bought it for invest
ment at the low prices and kept it for the
dividends. There will be many that viii do
this now. and in the end there can be little
doubf that they will realize we'll on their

has been a continuance OF the talk OF a

to put too implicit faith in this suggestion.
The company is making a superb showing
in gross earnings, and even better one
in net, as a result Of excellent and econom-
zeal management, and during the first six
months of the year there was earned on
the common stock, after all charges. some
thing better than a rate Of per cent. II
Is not believed by careful railway people
however. that the management will wish TO
pay dividends on the common stock so soon
