1t is said now that the Guggenheim Smeit-
ing interests want voice IN Mexican Cen
trail on account Of the large contribution to
the roads earnings which the Guggenheim
Smelling plants make through their heavy
shipments. This is something of modifi-
cation of the report current few days ago
that Smelling interests might obtain con-
troll Of the road. but 1t seems to make 1t
more likely that the apparent accumulation
of stock that has been going on is for tho
purpose of comforting the right to at least
an important representation OF new in
terests on the Mexican Central board
The new report comes from Boston, where
Mexican Central control IL largely held.
CThe railroad is Massa chusetts CORPORA
tion). The Pierce management Is said not
to be very friendly to the Guggenheims. and
there would seem to be a good chance
of contest for control OF the road.

Bartlett, Frazier & Darlington say:
I'VE learn from an excellent source that
Secretary Shaw Is keeping in touch with
the local situation, and IL this firm money
continues for a few days. he will make sub
stantial deposits in the western banks. OF
course, it cannot be said definitely when
the Secretary will do this or whether il VIII
be necessary. Liquidation in the stock
market is not. in our opinion, likely to be
carried to any great extent inasmuch as
stocks are apparently concentrated in very
strong hands, and the holders are believed
TO be very bullish.''

to three years ago is hardly likely to be
brought into the market save through

In other words, such securities, showing
