Weekly Financial Review
written Especially for The virginan by r. l. Rodcn

Much attention has been given to
the developments in Chicago this
week. 1t has been a political market.
The street is of the view that the
great question of preparedness Is
bound up in the nomination OF Mr..
Roosevelt. II Is believed that with
out his support the choice of the con-
vention cannot be elected. and, there
fore, the nominee is bound to be either
himself or someone selected by him.
II 1t so happens that Mr.. Roosevelt
dictates as to the nominee II would
mean IA sharp squirt in the market.
Trading in railroad securities has
been on larger scale. Reports of
earnings continue to show material
expansion. Louisville and Nashville
Is earning more than 10 per cent net
and II is thought that the directors,
at their meeting on June Is, may re-
store 1t to a seven per cent dividend
basis. Coast Line and Southern Rail-
way are doing Just as we'll. and the
advances made in these two would
indicate an expectation of dividend
resumption on Southern Railway pre-
ferred and an increase in the Coast
Line rate. The strength of Chesa-
peake and Ohio shows that q dividend
is expected on the shares Of this COM
pany before the year ends
Subscriptions to new Motor stocks
are larger than the amount of stock
offered The wild trading in this
class OF securities continues. but on
a diminishing scale.
The Copper market Is quiet. There
is no large buying at present but
Europe Is making inquiries for the
metal
The Mexican situation has become
more acute, but has been ignored by
the market Traders appear to have
made up their minds TO disregard the
Mexican question until some more
definite program OF dealing with this
matter Is brought forward.

There was strong upward move
ment in Steel the latter part of the
week. The Steel Corporation orders
show some shrinkage since the first
of June, the first time this has hap
pened since August of last year. 1t
is due more to a falling off in domes-
tic business than that which comes
from foreign sources. Mills are sold
up for the balance of the year. and
the shrinkage causes no surprise.

In previous presidential years,

In previous presidential years,
the Republicans have laid great
stress on their claim that the
election of Democrat meant Fl
nanclal disaster as the party
was incapable of administering
the affairs of government. You
have not heard any thing of the
kind this year. The Democrats
have been demonstrating the
faIsity of such claim for nearly
four years in most successful
administration of affairs and
have so changed the banking
laws that Republican money

will. Financial affairs were
never in better condition nor
business more flourishing. The

Senator Gore, the blind man

that the Democrats had passed a

taxation, seems to warrant the
belief that in the event of his
election the law which is taking
millions from the rich for the

be repealed. The successor the
