Financial Gossip.
BY I. A. FLEMING.

Action in the equipment stocks on the
New York Stock Exchange today IL
taken as evidence of a belief that the
advance granted in rates will result In
large orders from the railroads for
rails, cars, locomotives, etc. Because
of their reduced gross earnings, rail-
roads. in an effort to produce as good
net results as possible, have not main
tanned their usual average expenditures
for maintenance and equipment. Need
ing supplies of this character. they will
probably make liberal expenditures
within the next few months.
Equipments were the only stocks on
the list that showed much strength.
American Locomotive advanced from
s5 to 96B. Pressed Steel Car Company
moved up from 35 to SO, and Steel COM
mon. on expectation of rail orders, ad
vanced a point, but did not hold the
full gain
The action in railroad shares again
demonstrated that Wall street had
fully discounted the decision. Some
stocks were firmer, especially Cana
dian Pacific. which rose a point, Erie
first preferred, which was y higher.
and New Haven with point gain.
Kansas City Southern lost a point.
while New York Central and Pennsyl-
vania were barely steady. The whole
market was extremely narrow.

The refusal of United States Senator

There Is an element OF humor In the
squabble Nobody In Congress really wants

Representative Morrison OF Indiana does
