WALL STREET trend
ALONG NEUTRAL Line
Marine and Cuba Cane Sugar. How
ever. Sell Strong.
Osy the international News Service.

m .ha International News Ser1tce.D
Now York. ug SO.-With the exception
O, Marine stocks. both issues OF which
made new high records today, and Cuba
Cane Sugar. which broke nearly four-
taan noInts on single transaction, the
stock market was neutral. Most brokers
have taken sides with the railroads in
the great conspiracy to starve the Amer
ican public as neither England nor Ger
MANY has been starved in the great war
price changes were of no importance and
the Street busted itself chiefly with plans
FOR the big bull market that is to come
strike or no strike.
This bull market that Wall Street fore
sees Is based on such broad founda-
tions that the railroad strike can inter-
fere with IL only temporarily. Activity
Of Marine today was based on the same
argument that has been putting the stock
I'M for the last fifteen days. On January
the company will have Assets and cash
equal to par for all its outstanding bonds,
its preferred stock and the accumulated
dividend on the preferred stock, 1t is
earning now at the rate OF $50 snare
yearly on the common stock.
Assuming that the common Is worth
nothing now. which II is !ntrinsically
on January / the value will begin to pile
nm rspidlv for that issue and in the
Two wears of wpr that the English cab
met assures the cOmpany's officers VIII
he waEed, the company will have the
opportunity OF earning Sl6O snare on
fhe common. Wall Street feels that a
stock with such prospects Is worth buy
Ing should the war end suddenly,
maritime common would fall back to
about so a share and anybody who be-
lieves the war is likely to end suddenly
IS very foolish to touch 1t at current
prices.

NeryOusness in Evidence.

The following analysis of the New
York stock market was received yester-
day by w. B. Hibbs G. Co. from Logan
& Bryan, their New York correspond
ents:
THE list closed shade lower with
the exception OF Steel and a few special
ties. While much nervousness was in
evidence, sentiment appeared to be hope
fully inclined. 1t is thought that some
legislative action will be taken of a sort
that will relieve the situation, but the
conrending elements still show no dispo-
s!tion to recede materially from the
stands which they have assumed. Basic
conditions are being ignored and uncer-
tainty will probably prevail until some
thing definite transpires in the strike sit
uation, meanwhile it would appear TO be
in keeping with a conservative course to
contract long lines until the outlook is
more assuring

ket is weak"

iy for Improvement in the raw sugar

Dealers are beginning to realize what
the impending railroad strike will mean
to them. Coming as it does right in the
midst Of the fall selling season, when It
is difficult under the most advantageous
circumstances to get cars as fast as de-
sired it is a serious problem. True, it
will be possible to make the trip over
land to the factory, taking along a crew
to drive the machines back. This. how
ever, is rather expensive and besides
means considerable delay. From Wash
ington to the Middle West, where the
ma iority of the factories are located, is
at the best a two-day trip by automobile
Returning it would be longer for new
cars could not be pushed over the road
as fast as a machine already broken IN.
Then also there is the delay bound to
occur in getting started on the return
Journey. Men would require at least one
days rest before undertaking such a
tourney. In addition IL the strike does
really occur what will become of the
gasoline problem. To the majority of
cities in the United States it must be de-
livered by rail 1t is safe to say that in
no city is the supply on hand at pres
ent more than sufficient to last at the
best week Dealers themselves will
probably be able to stand the tie-up bet
ter than many of their statesmen. These
men, with few exceptions. work on strict
ly q commission basis. At this time of
year many have just returned from va
cations and are getting back in the har-
ness again. Bank accounts are not as
flush as they were before vacation time
No cars to sell means no commissions and
no commissions means no money. This
Is rather a gloomy view to take, but IT
Is one that presents itself
