Billy Warden sat on the veranda
rail half oblivious to the chatter of the
company about him until Edna Barns,
their charming hostess, stood beside
him.
DO come in and sing something,
Billy" she whispered. "Tm afraid the
evenings beginning to drag"
Warden arose dutifully and followed
her into the house toward the piano
while she announced from the door;
"Come on everybody, Billy's going to
sing"
And everybody trailed into the room
where Billy was already running over
the piano keys aimlessly.
"What'll you haveT he asked over
his shoulder to the gay assemblage.
Something sad-something mushy-
or something frivolous?"
Something frivolousp was the
unanimous request.
So Billy's fingers strayed into a syn

blond head and sang in his rollickins

vance on the preceding day, and accom-
panying this reaction further informa-
ton came to light regarding the remark
able inside position Of the stock. Aside
from the prosperity which the camnanv
Is experiencing, the principal reason for
the wioe fluctuations during the last
rev weeks has been the small floating
supply OF the stock, as the bears have
found out recently, much to their D,r-
prise. According to estimates which
usually prove accurate the American
International Corporations holdings OF
Rubber now total approximately 10000
shares, while It IL figured that at least
another 100000 shares are divided among
the directors OF the company, This
would leave a floating supply of not
more than $4,000 shares at the present
time. This situation is not particularly
new in that II has existed for several
weeks. But not knowing the situation.
the bears proceeded to sell the stock
heavily on its first rise some time ago.

a substantial reaction. But no reaction
came and when the insiders had placed
the shorts In the proper position they
proceeded to drive them to cover in short
order with the resulting advance in the

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
OIL stocks Favored.

The oils a. q group. came back into
favor yesterday. While some Of the ad-
vances. no doubt, were due to short
covering carried over from the previous

Of active and assured accumulation.
Texas Company and Sinclair were the
most active of the group. The Texas
shares closed the day with an advance
Of IAN, while Sinclair gained 6h. The
Sinclair shares were aided by the COM
