FIFTH REGIONAL BANK
MAKES GOOD PROFITS
BY I. A, FLEMING.

The year 1917 was a decidedly pros
porous one for the fifth district red
eral reserve bank. Gross earnings. In
GLIDING profits on loans. investments.
securities sold, service charges ard
penalties for shortage in reserves
amounted to $7.0,00s.s3. compared
with s3I2.719.40 for the year 1915.
Reserve and depreciation amounted
to S3O7,7S5, leaving net pront OF
$462.22s.
Six per cent dividends on the capt.
tai stock of the regional bank called
for S24O,945, and after this there was
n balance of sc3c.943. compared with
a Mus of s11,664TO for 1915. OF the
balance. sl15.471.73 was carried to
surplus account and like amount

Wild Trading on Wall Street.
This was a bull day on Wall street.
with great excitement and rapid ad-
vanceS in industrial shares ana some
gains in the rails.
Midvale Steel, the one-time hope or
thousands of traders. came to the
front with a surprising advance when

made good gains, United States steer
topping the present rise soon after
the opening at 11aA. Minor steels
averaged points and Baldwin Loco
motive Az points advance.
One persistent report. without con-
firmation. had to do with the purchase
of Baldwin Locomotive Company by
the Midvale Steel Company.
Wall street claimed to have other
pointers and the trading activity OF
the first two hours was sufficient to
insure far above 100000 shares for
the day. nor has there been any such
activity since the boom markets of
1916.
Naturally. with such rapid gains
there was much profit taking and re-
actions.
Liberty Bond Coupons.
Bankers suggest that permitting
coupons to remain on liberty loan
bonds does not help the government.
as many bondholders may imagine. for
the money for the payment of the cou-
pons is set aside. Cash the coupons
and invest in war savings stamps and
certificates.
Second issue of liberty bonds are
dated November Is. Installment buy
ers under the 10 per cent monthly
plan have not completed paymeIs on
this issue. hence were not able to cash
coupons yesterday. But one OF two
uptown institutions reported the cash
ing of many coupons yesterday. prob
ably for the reason stated. Banks
cashed large blocks of coupons for
their own accounts, interest charges

The industrials recovered their fui,

BIGGEST DAY Of YEAR

NEW YORK, May 1s.-Just be-

nothing in the news overnight caused
any diminution, but rather . contin-
ued acceleration of the pace until such
time as the size Of the rally and the
big profits in sight to people who
acquired stocks day or two ago
caused a prof1t-taking reaction.
One might we'll imagine the good
old broad trading markets of 1915 and
1916 had returned again, as there has
been nothing like the activity in the
interim.
Moreover. the breathing spell did
not last long, not more than an hour
or two. until the market showed evi-
dences of having recovered its speed.
and by midday practically everything
was grinding on high again. with no
telling whether further gains might
