General Electric Floats Notes at
6H Per Cent.

The General Electric Company an
nounced yesterday that it had completed
arrangements for a loan not to exceed
100000 for eight or nine months at 81
per cent Although no official statement
was made, II was learned that between
$4,000 and 100000 has already been
sold 70 J. p. Morgan & Co. With the UNI
derstanding that they will furnish the
remainder. The following statement was
issued by C. a. Coffin. chairman Of the
General Electric board:
"In September. 1917. the General Elec-
trio Company sold 100000 Of it's for
ty-yesr > per cent debentures out Of a
total authorized amount OF 5000. coo. At
that time it was expected that the pro-
ceeds OF these debentures would be suf-
ficient TO provide for the company's cap
ital requirements until late in the pres
ent year.
Owing, however. To an unprecedented
increase in the companys business this
has not been the case and I'm preference
10 issuing more dcbentures at this time

needs by borrowing not exceeding $40
10000 for eight or nine months at 81

THE CROP MARKETS
Grains All Firm and Higher
Coffee Also Advances.

Export sales in increased volume were
responsible for an advance in the local
wheat market yesterday. which amounted
10 i2c to l4c net. There was nothing in
the reports to indicate any spread Of rust
in the spring wheat districts but some
complaints of cool weather came in from
Canada. Pressure OF supplies continued
10 prevent any enthusiasm regarding
risks on the long side of the market, al
though it was noted that farmers were
showing some disposition TO hold for
higher prices. Weather conditions domi-
mated the corn market. but as rains with
in the next few weeks would make big
change in the prospects there was no
rush of buying orders. The conditions
gave a firm market, which closed CSC to
sc up. Oats were affected one way by
reports Of disappointing yields. and an
other way by liberal supplies 81 old crop
the result being a firm market and a
close showing a net advance for the day
Of CSC to &c.
Coffee seemed To be influenced almost
entirely by conditions in Europe, and at
the start there was a small decline. Offer
ings were small. however, even with Eu-
ropean coffee appearing at almost every
bulge final rally in Havre OF some
foreign buying helped the market here
and the close was at net gain Tor the
day OF to 10 points.

continuance Of hot weather, although no
actual damage was reported The

FOREIGNERS LENDING HERE
Offer 100000 at ia Per
Cent-Only 100000 Taken.

An interesting feature Of the time
money market yesterday was the lending
Of money from abroad on the Stock Ex-
change. II was stated that London Of
fered to lend 10000 on sixty and ninety
day notes at o.. per cent, but that only
$4,000 was taken.
This IS usually the time OF the year
when foreign exchange houses and banks
with European connections draw finance
bills against credits extended to them by
their foreign correspondents. They lend
the proceeds in this market pending the
maturity Of the bills in the fall, when
they can be repaid with lower exchange.
Up to the present. however, finance bills
have been conspicuous by their absence,
and the reason put forward was that
money was worth as much, If not more,
in Europe than here
