Union Pacifc's Big Income.

Union Pacihc's May report, made
public yesterday. furnished additional
proof, If any were needed, Of the
brilliant prosperity Of the railroads.
Operations on the lines Of the system
during the month yielded the largest
gross and net revenues since Deem
Der. Gross increased S2,l49,b66 20
total of Ss,734O26, while the net item
gained s1,55s,157, compared with year
ago. amounting to s3,9s5.547. With
only one month to 60 before the end
of the current fiscal year, It is almost
foregone conclusion that Union will
earn more than Il per cent on the com
mon stock for the period. compared
with actual earnings of 1923 per cent
in 1e14-15. Yesterdays fine showing
strengthened the belief in the Street
that the company would sooner or
Inter consider an extra distribution on
the common.

GOVERNMENT BONDS.

public at the rate of "A ,centavos gold

paper is the chief currency of the coun-

this plan of issuing notes at a fixed
rate for gold was adopted in the clos
ing COS after Argentina had expert
enced a severe depreciation in it:
paper currency. With the growth Of
the dollar exchange business between
South America and New York, it is
suggested as likely that fund similar
to that now on deposit in London may
be built up here and that the gold
brought in this week is the first step
in this direction.

Anaconda's New Rate.

In a good many quarters the action
Of the Anaconda directors in raising
the dividend TO S. year came as a
distinct surprise. While it is true that
e month or 80 ago an increase in the
rate was generally predicted, recent
Developments in the Mexican situation,
coupled with bearish reports on the
outlook in the copper trade, led many
persons TO believe that conservative
action might be expected at this time.
Fsrlv Yesterday the report went out
TIA. the directors would declare an
extra dividend instead Of raising the
regular rate. For that reason the IN.
crease came as welcome surprise. and
the Street viewed the action of the di-
rectors in the light Of vote Of con-
fdence in the future Of the copper
market. Anaconda advanced sharply
early in the day, apparently discount
i7r the higher rate 1t sold above so
shortly before the announcement ,i and
subsequently, touched 81, later falling
bsck 10 close at 1914. where it showed
z gain of 2B points on the day.

COFFEE,

A slight early rally was followed BY re-
newed weakness in the coffee market with
most Of the active months making new low
ground for the movement under further
scattering liquidation and little trade sell
ing Reports Of easier cost and freight Of
fers served to check the early demand, which
had been based chiefly on reactionary argu-
rents, and there seemed 20 be very little
support around the ring during the after
room, with the close showing a net loss OF
20 Z points. Sales were reported Of 90, $50
bags.
The declining tendency in the primary
markets was reflected IN the Official eaoles

Helping the Brokers.

If no one else does, the broker GER
tainly ought to profit from the change
in the basis Of trading in WHY'S
Overland shares inaugurated yester-
DAY. The trader who bought 100 shares
of the stock or Monday, paying his
broker the customary $3.50 commits
sion, found if he sold 1t yesterday that
the brokers' selling commission on the
same number of shares cost four times
$3.50. or $50. The reason for the sud
den advance in the commission charge
vas due 70 the fact that beginning yes
terday ys-Overland shares were
traded in on a basis Of s25 par, each
500 par value of stock being split into
four shares. The holder Of WHY'S
Overland who had forgotten that yes
tsrdav was the day for the start Of the
new arrangement must have had ner-
vous moment or two when he saw the
stock quoted at 69S4 az the opening:
compared with closing on Monday OF
27s. On the old basis the opening price
was the equivalent of 279.

New Argentine Conversion Fund.-

In the absence Of an official explana,
lion of the purpose Of the Sl,500OOO
gold shipment from London TO New
York for the account Of the Argentine
government, the point was made IN
banking circles yesterday that possibly
the South American republic is to es-
tablish n gold conversion fund in this
citv similar to that now held in Lon

what is known as a gold exchange
standard basis, protected by the GAIA

Teuton Exchange Low.

German marks, which have been de
chning rather steadily Of late, dropped
abruptly yesterday, getting down at
one time during the day as low as
72hc for checks, compared with a close
on the previous day Of 744c and re-
cent high Of u.s. This meant that
check on Berlin good for four marks
cost less than 73c, whereas in normal
times il cost about Csc. At yesterday
low marks were only a cent above the
low record Of the war period. Foreign
exchange men were at loss to explain
the sudden break in German exchange
although they were inclined to associ-
ate il with the increasing pressure of
the Allied military and naval forces
upon the resources Of the Central
Powers
