Excessive Profits

The small corporation and the part
nership in the tobacco trade arc between
the devil and the deep sea. The eX'
preston Of satisfaction over the pros
poets of the tobacco trade escaping
further internal revenue increases for
the year was given with = will when
the new revenue bill was first reported
in Congress. The cigar trade read into
the various provisions an attempt only
TO fasten the responsibility of fnane-
ing preparedness" upon munihon
makers and other fat frying corpora
tons. But since then somebody has
been doing lot Of thinking. II has
been discovered that the bill made no
distinction between the munluon
makers and the cigar makers, between
the fryers of fat on u larrc scale ana
those on small scale. The bill goes
after excessive profits" and the Ian
guage is plain and concise. The taH
collector will be interested not at AZ
in Whit In manufactured, but in whal
profit is made over and above - per
cent of the actual capital invested
Somebody may have to confess that Nv
is really making money.-Tobacco'

WHEAT AND COAL PRICES
ARE REGULATED IN SPAIN
Present Supply of Grain Sufficient for
Domestic Consumption

The work of the official Spanish
Provisions Board, according to a re-
port from Consul General Carl Bailey
Hurst, at Barcelona, has resulted in a
number of royal orders regulating the
prices of certain commodities of prime
necessity. The maximum selling price
duced is fixed at s2.95 per 100 pounds.
The provincial boards are to ascertain
the normal price of transportation in
each province, and, adding this to the
price OF wheat at the place of origin
as fixed by the central board, the
selling price in each locality IS fixed
The selling price Of -four and bread is
likewise set. Regulations as 10 the
systematic distribution of wheat and
-four are also made, so that every
community may receive an adequate
supply.
The Association of Spanish Agri-
culturists has informed the Provisions
Board that it believes the present
supply of wheat will suffice for domes-
tic consumption, and that it will not
be necessary to purchase foreign
wheat during the present season. This
organization proposes. however, that
the government obtain data as to the
amount of foreign wheat available in
the event further supplies of wheat
should be called for hy Spanish
millers and wheat importers.
The price of coal on cars at station
of origin has been adapted TO cir
cumstances existing in various min
ing districts. taking into account
whether intended for use in large
manufacturing industries or for do
nestle use and small plants.

DUTCH BANK EXPANDS
IN SOUTH AMERICA
Opens Third Branch in City
of Valparaiso

The Hollandsche Bank vcor Zuid-
Amerika Dutch Bank for South Amer
ica), which established its first foreign
branch in Buenos Ayres year and a
half ago and its second in Rio de ia
metro about a month ago, is entering
upon an extensive plan for gradual ex-
pansion. 1t is expected that third
branch will be opened in Valparaiso as
soon as the staff is engaged, according
to the American commercial attache
at The Hague. With these three
branches in the three South American
countries of the greatest Importance
in Dutch trade as a nucleus, an extern
sive system gradually will be built up.
Branches will probably be opened be-
fore long in Montevideo. Sac Paulo,
is reported that one of the greatest
difficulties experienced in connection
with the opening of these new branches
is the scarcity of men trained for the
particular kind of work required.
Hollands interests in South America
have increased tremendously since the
outbreak of the war, largely on ac-
count Of the many South American Sc
curities that have found their way
here from one or another of the bellig-
erents, and because of Hollands
further search for profitable invest
ments for its surplus gold The
Netherlands purchase large quantities
of Chilean saltpetre. Argentine grain
and Brazilian coffee. One function Of
the new bank will be to finance these
various shipments.
The Dutch Bank of South America
commenced with a capitalization of 49,
200 1000. This, however, will be gradu-
ally increased as new branches are
opened. No dividends were declared
during the first year. Supporting this
bank are several large Dutch banking
institutions and interests, chief among
which is the Rotterdamsche Bank
Vereeniging, which has a capitalization
of about s2O,OOO,0Oo, and is one Of Hol-
lands largest and strongest financial
institutions.

IL will be noted that import trade
from the United Kingdom has been
slipping back gradually, while that
from the United States has shown a
tendency to increase. Since the war,
and due to the curtailment Of Brit
aims production of goods other than
war materials, the United States has
been supplying a considerably high
err proportion more than 20 per
cent? of the manufactured goods
imported by the Dominion.
One does not have far to look for
an explanation of the predominant
position which United States manu-
facturers enjoy in relation to the
Canadian market. The United
States has the important advantage
Of geography, and it's business inter
ests have been alert to make good
use of it. In general, the popularity

Monday, February 10, 1917.

Speculation and investment alike
are almost at standstill. They will
probably remain so until something
definite happens to dispel the nu-
mcrous uncertainties which are hold
ing all markets in restraint. But
while there has been no change In
fundamental conditions since the
markets settled down to wait on IN
ternational developments, the last
week was marked by some improve
ment in sentiment, reflected in a
moderate degree in higher prices for
investment securities, particularly
toward the close. Railroad bonds,
which had suffered considerable de-
clines, were mostly stolid in move
ment, in spite of alarming reports Of
traffic congestion, which is sure to
reduce earnings to some extent.
There is nothing surprising in that,
however, since the movement of rail-
way stocks and bonds has for many
months failed to synchronize with
the trend of earnings.
The most pronounced improve
ment of the week was in some of the
foreign government issues, which had
been subjected to severe selling
pressure in the two preceding weeks.
The Anglo-French per cent bonds,
for example, rebounded sharply from
their low record price of 909s and
closed at 92A, up II points on the
week. City of Paris 6 per cent notes
did better, while fractional improve
ment was recorded in the United
Kingdom SIS. The success of the
latest British sterling loan probably
had favorable sentimental effect on
the Allied issues. Moreover, much
of the selling of the previous week
had been for speculative account,
and had been overdone, especially in
the Anglo-French 5s.

only thing that prevented dangerous

season was the large supplies saved
from preceding crops.-W. T. Fenton'
Vice-President of the National Bank
of the Republic. Chicago.
The present situation demands the
earnest and heartiest cooperation OF
the government and all great business
organizations. Because OF this fact ~
it not proper that some consideration
should be given TO the question as u
whether the national government might
not properly accept the unanimous de
cision Of the lower court in favor OF
the United States Steel Corporation
and dismiss the suit now pending lor
dissolution of the corporation. thus
freeing the hands of that great orgahi-
zation. and in connection Herewith
have the corporation agree to spend as
many millions as may be necessary 10

and as rapidly as possible Its steer

to meet every possible emergency OF
the future? Every days delay may be
fraught with great danger to the coun-
try. If it is feasible and proper for
the government and the Steel Corpora
ton to meet on some friendly basis Tor
a discussion Of such suggestion, ana
if it should be found that the govern
ment is justified in Withdrawing Its
suit because of the unanimous decision
of the lower court in favor OF the cor
poration, such course would De Oh

Dealings in stocks, although small
in volume, were not in the least sug-
gestive of apathy. That element of
public intelligence which gives ex-
preston to its judgments in regard
to the affairs of the world by buying
or selling securities probably was
never more keenly alert than it has
been in the last fortnight, but there
is little inclination to risk the conse-
quences of impulsive action.
In small way stocks held by in
vestors were thrown on the market.
These offerings were supplemented
On various occasions by the short
selling of Wall Street professionals.
Operations, however, were at all
times on such a moderate scale that
the market required little support
from banking interests, and when on
Saturday efforts were made to cover
an accumulation of short sales stocks
as rule were not forthcoming in
the amounts desired until buyers sig
nifed their willingness to pay higher
quotations for them. AS for some
time past, the stocks of representa-
tive industrials were stronger than
those Of railroads, although many of
the latter class of securities are sell
ing so low as to appear extremely
attractive as an investment. Shares
Of various industrial concerns en-
gaged in filing orders for war sup
Plies for the Allies benefited from
the publication of annual reports
showing how very profitable such
business has been, and the expecta-
ticn that similar contracts from the
United States government will pro-
long the period Of that kind of pros
perity.

restricting their borrowings to the
barest necessities.
The stiffening of commercial
paper indicates the extent to which
business has been affected by the
changed conditions in the money
market. Last week the ruling rate
for prime commercial bills of the
best names was around Az per cent,
compared with a recent low of 81
per cent, and an early advance to 5
per cent is not unlikely if general
conditions remain as they are.
There has been an abundance of call
money for stock market purposes
in fact, more than has been needed,
in view of the stagnation in the Sc
curity markets. Banks, which are
lcath to loan out money on time
under prevailing conditions, freely
offer funds in the day to day market
because of the liquidity of such COM
mitments. Rates on call this week
have averaged around 21z per cent.
Time money loaned on Stock Ex-
change collateral has, on the other
hand, been firmly held at 4 to Ak
per cent, depending on the nature of
the securities and the maturity.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-02-19

An interesting development in the
money market lately has been the
movement in Canadian exchange. A
few days ago New York funds in
Montreal rose to the extraordinary
figure of 1 per cent premium. The
upturn was attributed to the German
submarine activities, which caused a
check to exports from Atlantic ports,
IN consequence of which there were
fewer grain bills offering. Since
then, however, there has been a
sharp drop, and the premium on New
York funds at Montreal is now one
half of l per cent. The break was
NJ doubt due to the renewed move
ment Of exports on better organized
control of shipping and to the fact
that new Canadian government
lean may be brought out here in the
near future.
