The possibilities OF MarcOni Wireless Telegraph cannot be estimated.
The ultimate value Of the stock cannot be measured. The system has de-
velOped faster and accomplished more in the same period OF development
than did either the Telegraph, Telephone or Electric Light. Every step
from the beginning has been an advance. THE FOUNDATION WAS
SECURELY AND FIRMLY LAID, FIRST ONE MILE WAS COVERED

The protection against new competition
afforded to the steel trade through the ac-
QUESTION OF the Hill ore lands by the Steel
Corporation will not be confined to the pur-
chase OF the ores. but will extend to every
concern now enga ged in the business. This
IL the reason for the strength in the stocks
OF the independent companies the menace
Of cut throat competition has vanished for
good. and the Steel Corporation can pursue
at the very outset OF it, career OF conducting
operations on u & basis as TO promote
q healthy growth Of the industry and Of all
legitimate enterprises In its various branches.
Only in two respects has the situation been
changed-the danger Of new competition has
been eliminated and the Steel Corporation

career Of profit able operation.

The bank statement came upon the Street
rs a disa sreeable surprise. showing a con-
siderable reduction in the surplus reserve
where a substantial gain had been expected.
The effect was to cause a little freer offering
OF stock and to lessen the siren 9Th of the
supper that had been lent to the market
previously. and some OF the traders argued
therefrom that large inter ests were endeavor-
ing to depress the market by an unfavorable
pres entAtion Of the money situation. This
theory was not borne out by the character
Of the trading. for had the large. interests
chosen to make a dem onstration against the
market the time would have been opportune
for ~offering stocks down when 80 many
operators were away attendin z the automo-
bile race. There was. however. no appear
ance Of any such tactics. and a. a matter Of
fact the principal selling in the last half hour
came from traders who had waited for the
bank statement in the expectation OF. a good
showing which they hoped to avail them
selte e. OF for profit taking, purposes. Not
getting this. they sold anyway so Is TO have
a clean slate over Sunday. .

TALLY correct the report that the st. Paul
management has considered a plan to double
the amount OF capital stock by an additional
issue of SIS, OOO. 900 preferred and an equal
amount OF common and that stockholders
will be asked to approve the increase at the
adjourned annual meeting on october 30.
Naturally there is a great deal OF 'guessing
as to the reason for such a large increase,
but as in official quarters it is not even adj
mitted that the matter h under consideration
the real explanation cannot be ascertained

both closed at exactly the same figure, with
the former up.IT and the latter down y on

special reason was given, although the traders
argued from IL that a prominent banking
house which had not been active in the mar

opposed TO some judicious attention to stocks
Of companies controlled by IL. There Is now
