Developments in the money mar
ket last week attested to the eff
fectlveness Of the control exercised
over rates by the financial authori-
ties in whose hands the task of sta
billing the money market is lodged.
Money was in sufficient supply to
meet the requirements of the situa-
tion without increasing the tension,
and at the Stock Exchange day to
day rates on call loans were main
tanned at an average of 4 per cent.
The banks handled the situation
without resorting to the assistance
of the money committees funds,
although the market was confronted
with heavy transfers to the interior
in connection with the initial pay
ments on Liberty Loan subscrip-
ton, and large governmental with
drawals of funds from this centre.
Naturally, in view of the heavy
burden imposed upon their re-
sources, the banks were not in a
position to increase their offerings
of funds running for fixed periods,
with the result that the rate on
credit accommodation of this char
acter was firmly maintained at 6
per cent. The banks are now con-
fronted with heavy payments ahead
on the Liberty Loan subscription
lnstalments, the next payment,
amounting to 20 per cent, falling
due on May %. That will require
100000, but the total will
probably be much larger, as expe-
rience in the two preceding loans
has demonstrated that a large part
of the subscribers will pay in full
on the first instalment date.

Industrial Profits

Earnings Well Sustained in Our
First Year of War

Entrance Of the United States into
the war has not, according tc Wal,
street compilation of earning statistics
resulted IN curtailment of net profits
commensurate with the decline in the
market value of shares of American
inouserlal corporations. Fourteen of
the greatest industrial compan;es
earned $S9O,239,000 net in the aoore-
gate IN 1915, 1916 and 1917 as shown
by calculations made by the New York
'''ocK Exchange house of Newburger.

and funded debt increased S7S.856 600
Excluding the United States Steel
Corporation and the Bethlehem Steel
corporation from the compilation. it
appears that the twelve remaining COM
pames, which are perhaps more repre-
sentative, earned a total of 5000 .361 oOo
net IN the threeyear period, of which
$oo,O44,0O0 was earned in 1915, S112.-
1o2,oo0 IN 1916 and S141 1880 in 1917.
After deducting fully one-quarter of
the profits for war taxes" the firm
says, in discussing the significance of
the figures, "the balance of the twelve
companies exceeded the remarkable
record of the previous year by more
than 25 per cent. Moreover, for the

and transportation conditions, a typical
company like Republic Iron and Steel
reports earnings at the annual rate of

facts is very clear. If the disposition

the government will defray the cost Of

Speculative and investment Sc
curities more than held their own in
last weeks markets without any i'm
portant increase in the volume Of
activity. The course of stock prices
carried many of the representative
industrial issues into new high
ground for the current movements:
bonds displayed the best tone in
weeks on quiet trading. Conditions
surrounding the market for stocks
show little, if any, change. The bulk
OF the business continues to be
furnished by professional traders
operating independently or in So
called pools. Public participation at
the moment, as has been the case
for many weeks. is confined almost
entirely to investment purchases of
the better class of industrial and
railway shares.
Speculative effort is for the most
part concentrated upon the securi-
ties of industrial corporations. The
reason for this is quite obvious.
Railroad shares no longer furnish
the speculative possibilities offered
when the roads were under private
control, for, under the new order of
things, the compensation received by
the carriers is fixed under govern
ment guarantee. This naturally
tends to restrict speculation in the
rails and to place this group Of
stocks in a position akin to bonds
which bear fixed rate of income.
Industrial shares are in different
position. Industrial companies are,
it is true, hampered by the extraor-
dinary taxes, price-fixing of COM
modities and products, and other
war measures, but earnings for
such companies are not limited to
any important degree, so that the
basis for speculative operations in
the industrial shares has been but
little restricted.
Most of the news last week bear
ing on market values was of a con-
structive nature. Earnings pub
lished by steel companies for the
first quarter of the year were con-
sidered favorable, for they indicated
that the worst operating conditions
in years had been weathered with
out impairing dividends, and the
tendency in the current quarter is
toward increasing productive activ-
ity and increasing revenues. Facts
brought out at the meeting of steel
men a few days ago show that this
particular industry has war busi-
ness piled up for months ahead, or
ders for rails, for example, being
sufficient to keep the mills operat-
ing at capacity for the next ninety
six weeks. 1t is no longer a ques-
ton of getting new business, but
rather a question of turning out
the orders on hand on time.

Improvement in railroad bonds
last week conceded with fresh ad-

government. Washington advices
indicated that slightly less than
100,00O,000 had been advanced to
the transportation companies since
the government took over control,
part Of this going for rentals and
part being used to meet maturing
obligations that could not be taken
care of through the usual channels
of the capital market owing to the
Liberty Loan campaign. Municipal
bonds continued firm, although ac-
tlvity was at low ebb, owing to
the fact that practically all the in
vestment interests in the financial
district were engaged in the final
drive for the Liberty Loan. New is

Get New Kidneys i!

The kidneys are the most overworlled
organs of the human body, and when they
fail in their work of fltering out and
throwing off the poisons developed in the
system, things begin to happen.
One of the first warnings is pain or stiff
ness in the lower part of the back; highly
colored urine; loss of appetite; indiges-
ton; irritation, or even stone in the blad-
der These symptoms indicate a condition
that may lead to that dreaded and fatal
malady, Bright's disease, for which there
is said to be no cure.
Do not delay minute. At the first in
dication of trouble in the kidney, liver,
bladder or urinary organs start taking
Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules, and
save yourself before it is too late. Instant
treatment is necessary IN kidney and blad-
der troubles. A delay is often fatal.
You can almost certainly find immediate
relief in Gold Medal HARLEM Oil Capsules.
For more than 200 years this famous prep
aration has been an unfailing remedy for
all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles.
1t is the pure, original HARLEM Oil your
great grandmother used. About two cap
sules each day will keep you toned up and
feeling fine. Get it at any drug store. and
if it does not give you almost immediate
relief, your money will be refunded. Be
sure you. get the GOLD MEDAL brand.
