STOCK SALE At $1,000
PERCENT PREMIUM Is
LONDON 'CHAkGE RECORD

A few days ago the fl founders
shares of the Bengal Iron & Steel
Co. changed hands in the London
stock exchange at f920. This Is a
premium of 81, 800 per cent. and
probably has no parallel in joint
stock company history. The found
ers' shares have as yet received no
dividend. and a few years ago their
prospects OF receiving a return
seemed exceedingly remote. but for
tune has recently smiled on the I'M
dertaking.
The founders shares are only 1 50
in number but they are entitled to
one-third of the net earnings after
the payment of a cumulative divi-
dend of 10 per cent on the ordinary
shares.
The concern was formed i'm 1889,
and has had a very erratic financial
career. At one time its preference
dividend fell behind. while even in
the relatively prosperous years much
less than 10 per cent was often pro-
vided on the ordinary shares. But
rapid strides are now being made.
and the time should be approaching
when the cumulative payment OF 10
per cent over the entire existence OF
the company will have been met.
At 1920 each the founders shares
have a market value Of f135, 1000,
and il is possible that in due course
a scheme may be propounded for
buying out the interests Of the hold
ers by giving them shares not en-
titled TO these special rights. Found
ers' shares were at one time very
popular form of capital. but they
constitute an unsound type Of A.
nance. as their existence stands in
the way Of the prudent handling Of
profits.-LOndon Economist.

same line-should not continue &C
tive for several years TO come.
During the mid-week. weakness
developed in Studebaker. Selling
for several days was quite pro-
nOunced. This, following the down
ward action Of United Cigar Stores,
which led TO the conclusion that il
was because of the expectation of
poor statement, the Cigar Stores de-
cline being to S.41 per share, as
against 1909 for 1916. Analysis of
this statement. however. indicates
that the annual earnings were con-
siderably in excess OF the previous
year. the apparent deficiency being
due, mainly, TO extra taxes.
Upon the announcement of the de-
tails in regard to the consolidation
of General Motors and Chevrolet.
General Motors was pressed for sale.
This. no doubt, was due to the fact
that the capitalization is to be ma
terially increased; and, further. TO
the probable distribution of General
Motors stock which has been in the
treasury of the Chevrolet company.
Increasing the floating supply will
prevent the erratic fluctuations that
have occurred in the past.
One of the spectacular issues re-
Gently has been Mexican Petroleum.
Its rise has been steady. the excuse
recently offered being the eXpecta-
ton Of a distribution OF the stock
with probability of a continuation of
the present dividend rate. Whether
this is merely a rumor or founded
on fact is ar present uncertain.
The most pleasing commercial
item of the week was the statement
issued by Judge Gary, chairman of
the board of the L. 8 steel corpora
ton, who stated. in substance. that
the company is rapidly approaching
normal in operations and that dur
ing the past week there was a gain
of % percent in the output An
other favorable fact relative 10 this
same company is the statement that
1921 employees purchased 95,437
shares of the stock at 90 per share.
With the payment of the present 4
Ia percent dividend on this stock.
discussion will, no doubt, again be
heard as 10 its future prospects and
as TO the likelihood of the present
rate continuing. Prior to the last
meeting there was cOnsidera bic
doubt upon this point.
The money situation continues
very firm. rates have been maintain
ed at practically six percent, and
there is at present 10 prospect Of
relief. Bankers are preparing for
the coming bond issue; and until
this is out of the way and absorbed
by the public, stringency is more
than likely 10 continue.
So far as the future Of the market
is concerned, there is no reason why
the same influences should not con-
tinue in operation. Generally. the
public will look towards Europe for
cue. 1t will require a revived
hope of peace TO again bring the
public into the ma Xet on a suffi-
GENTLY larger scale TO create more
than temporary advances in huctua-
