MARKET RAIDED

Report of Tax on Canadian
Companies Pretext for
Activity.
c. P. AND DOME SUFFER
Crucible Steel and American Ice
Among Few Stocks that Remain
Firm Under Pressure.

New York, Feb. 1s.-Taking ad-
vantage of bearish professional senti-
ment and OF public apathy, a few
operators raided the market in Wall
Street today. They used as a pretext
a report that the British government
would tax all Canadian companies %
per cent OF profits in excess of per
cent when made on war business.
Mexico also was a factor.
Canadian issues broke badly, the
chief sufferers being Canadian Pacific,
Cranky Copper and Dome Mines. These
stocks are all popular and when their
decline was followed by a sharp break
in American Tobacco. the street began
selling the whole list. The result
was material weakness.
Among the few stocks that held
firm were CruCible Steel and American
Ice. but the very firmness of these led
the street to believe that they were
held to cover up liquidation in other
departments and so they attracted no
following. The Canadian tax report
is not confirmed officially. It grows
out of the reports current for the last
month to the effect that International
Mercantile Marine will be taxed
heavily.
Companies not directly employed on
war orders find their profits growing
at a surprising rate. For instance,
American Beet Sugar IS reliably re-
ported to be making more than 35 per
cent on the common stock. General
Motors reports earnings at the rate
of ISL per cent yearly. American Can
will serve as an Illustration of the
companies turning out munitions of
war. Its profits for 1916, assuming
the war lasts throughout the year, are
conservattvely estimated at about
b20.OOO,0OO net. Westinghouse is
struggling to make place for some
important new war orders. The new
Mdvale Company is assured of all the
business il can do at it's own price.
The United States Steel Corpora

earnings of the corporation. places It

There iS a great scarcity Of wheat in Europe and
