Railroad Dividends.

This week there is another instance
to record Of the effect Of the recession
In business, now so much talked Of
the passing Of a dividend payment by
an eastern railroad. From time to time
reports of lighter tonnage on the prin-
cipal roads, Of declines in gross re-
ceipts and even larger relative declines
in net earnings have been features Of
the financial news, and much prophecy
has been heard as to how soon and
in what degree this would begin to
bear upon the holders of securities.
To date, three companies have sus-
pended dividends, but in no case has
a road Of prominence taken such
action, nor is there anything to indi-
cate that this will follow. Some Of
the smaller dividend-pa American
roads, sound, and in the main con-
servatively managed, have neverthe-
less habitually skated on rather thin
Ice in this respect, and have never
shown very heavy excess figures over
fixed charges. Moderate declines In
business, accompanied by general in
crease in the operating ratio, and the
effects of a winter severe almost be-
yond precedent, have drawn down net
figures to a point where it would have
been against sound policy to have
longer continued payments.
That more Of those roads whose
dividends have been heretofore main
tanned by narrow margins only, and
without opportunity for accumulation
of anything large in the way of sur
plus may follow the lead Of the three
but that any of the larger and strong
er systems will be seriously affected

lions,

Wheat Prices.

Half way thru June finds the grain
trade at sea as to future wheat prices
For fortnight bearish sentiment has
grown, as bearish news increased, but
decline has been hard to effect and
price recession moderate.
A great bear argument is lack OF
export business. For some time
America has sold comparatively little
wheat to Europe, while Russia, Argen-
tine, India and Australia shipped
heavily. A year ago Liverpool July
wheat was 6s SID and Chicago July
76c and a fair export business was
being done. Now Liverpool is about
6s Ind, and Chicago around SAC and
while this difference maintains ex-
port business will lag. Liverpool is
the worlds regulator. Sooner or later
prices always adjust themselves to a
legitimate basis, hence the contention
that decline is in order.
Against this there is the fact that
America has little wheat to sell.
Stocks at all points are small and the
movement light, and, domestic re-
quirements considered, there is really
none to spare. There will soon be
wheat to export, however, for the new
winter crop will shortly be coming to
market. The bears feel that prices
ought to go to an export level to keep
the wheat moving out, but the bulls
believe the crop outlook as yet too
indefinite to warrant decline. The
winter wheat is still far from secure,
and wet harvest would change the
complexion Of affairs.
AS to spring wheat, the weather has
been splendid and the crop is coming
in some very important localities,
which suggests possible hot wind or
early frost damage before harvest.
The combined winter and spring
wheat promise, based upon govern
ment figures, is for 610,OO0,OOO to
64O,000,000 bushels. which, al
lowing for increased domestic
exportable surplus of between 1885,
100000 and 100000 bushels.
This is approximately the present
stand. If the most favorable condi-
tons maintain thruout, the country
will not be overburdened with wheat,
while the vicissitudes Of the summer
are yet to be reckoned with.
Hence it would seem that the mar
ket is still a two-sided proposition
despite the present predominance of
lbearish sentiment and the fact that
Minneapolis July wheat in the COS and
September around soc, looks high by
comparison with average prices for
previous years.
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1904-06-18

late copy Of the Scotsman, the great
daily Of Edinburgh, reveals the fact that
Minneapolis as a grain market Is prac-
tically unknown in some foreign quarters
The Scotsmans eight columns Of market
reports quotes wheat at Toledo, Duluth
and st. Louis The fact that Toledo
should appear as an important American
wheat market while Minneapolis is
omitted altogether may surprise many in
the trade. Possibly little effort on the
part Of the Minneapolis Chamber of Com
merce might change this.
