Bearish on steel.

The trading element and perhaps the
brokerage fraternity also are SIN bear
ish on steel. They are suspicious OF
the bottom fhat has been made and
talk about the stock working down To
80 or So Their reasons are that the
trade Is Ear from being in ilourishins
condition. They may be right about the
condition OF trade and they may at the
same time misiudge the market posi-
ton OF tho stock. Unless there liz re-
ncwed liquidation in Steel common on
fairly extensive scale 1t Is difficult
to see how the price will work down 20
80. The presence NJ the minimum price
has shown It's ability to prevent specu-
lativc attacks, so that there is little like
lhood Of effective bear campaigns.
Moreover. the fact that Steel stopped
where 1t did In spite Of heavy specula-
tive pressure and has not yet renewed
It's downward trend means something.
II does not mean that IL is physically
impossible for the stock to go lower,
but It Is that new buying was met be-
low 40. or course, liquidation may nc
renewed at any time for after all the
war Is still the great unknown guam
tity. but II the present market Is any
indication. Steel stock has readjusted IL
self TO It's position as a non-dividend
payer.

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
Stocks and wheat.

II is a common opinion in the Street
that the phenomenal rise in wheat has
arrived at stage where IL Is no longer
a bull point on the stock market. The
present situation in wheat is abnorrool
and the stock market is extremely
sensitive to any departure from the
normal A good decline in wheat, II IL
was conducted In orderly fashion, would
undoubtedly be considered a favorable
development Further II is pointed out
that with wheat prices advancing and
the exportable surplus reaching an end
the economic Disadvantages of very
high prices for produce are obtrdding
themselves. Nevertheless there can he
no denying that high prices have
brought tremendous prosperity TO the
agricultural sections of the country or
that the huge exports at these prices
have reduced the country's foreign debt
as II could not have been reduced In any
other fashion. The first named is bound
to have direct effect upon general
business. In the old days, when the
farming community was not as well off
as II is now, the Western drummer could
always sell big supply of lightning
rods after good harvests. Nowadays the
farmer will buy freely, but securities are
Just as likely to be in demand as light
ming rods

A prominent inv stment house mas is-
sued circular letter ON the prospect
for Missouri. Kansas and Texas securi-
ties. The letter lays particular em-
phasis upon the fact that Sl9,000,00
notes come due on Nay ! next and
evidently expects that the holders will
see the wisdom of renewing them. II
Is pointed out that an unusual collec-
ton of circumstances, some due to
natural causes, has brought NJ X. and
7. securities down to the lowest prices
in twenty-five years. As a result Of
these circumstances the surplus was
reduced from S2,3i6,000 in 1918 to $780,
900 in 1914. In the five months OF
the present fiscal year the road has
done remarkably well, earning $1,liS,-
600 above all charges. But there now
comes the problem of taking care OF
the notes maturing next May. Under
present conditions in the investment
market weak companies are at a serious
disadvantage when they have to have
money. II is considered. therefore.
highly desirable that things should be
tided over until the notes can be per-
manenty financed. Hopes Of effecting
this delay arr encouraged by the fact
that the notes are in strong hands

SHAUGHNESSY OPTIMISTIC.
Sees Prosperity for United states
In Near Future.

Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, president
OF the Canadian Pacific Railroad. at the
Ritz-Carlton yesterday said he saw no
reason why the United States. In the
near future. should not enter upon an
era OF marked PROSPERITY He was es-
pecially confident regarding the outlook
for Canada.
Regarding the reported intention of
the Canadian Pacific to sell or lease its
steamship lines Sir Thomas said IL was
true that the company was forming a
concern to take over its ocean steam
ships
Discussing the crop situation i'm Cam
ada Sir Thomas said with regard
10 the current year the area under crop
is very largely in excess OF anything
we have ever had before in western
Canada, II is estimated by some that
the additional acreage under crop IL az
much as 40 per cent, hut. speaking
conservativcly, | should say we can
safely count on a 20 or % per cent. in
crease In acreage, and this ought TO
produce a record crop.
THE only threatening feature In
Canada now" he continued. lis the stu
alton resulting from the wild and
stupid railway policy which has been
pursued there, eXemplified by the con-
struction OF two additional transcon-
tluental lines, almost entirely under the
auspices of the Government, many years
