Securities and Money
Railroad Shares
Advance in Dull
Stock Market

Since relatively few orders from
the outside public accumulated ovel
the week end, the stock marke'
yesterday was again chiefly in the
hands of professional operators. Trad
ing was less active than in any five
hour session last week. Only 259 diff
ferent securities were bought and
sold, and transactions were less than
650,000 shares.
On the constructive side of the
market, railroad stocks far eclipsed in
dustrials. The rails spurted from a
fraction to three points almost with
out expectation, whereas the industrials
vacillated between losses and gains
and were Irregular when the gong
ended the days trading.
President Wilson met Director Gen
eral Hines and representatives of the
shopmen who demand 25 per cent
wage increase yesterday, and there
was much speculation as to the out
come of the meeting. A winged rumor
that a somewhat concrete plan for
solving the railroad problem would
emerge from 'he meeting led to the
bidding up of rail stocks, and no
news of what actually took place was
available throughout the trading day.
In seeking to explain the fact of
higher quotations for the oft-kicked
about stocks, brokers dwelt on the
fact that the floating supply of the
securities was slender and that thew
were held by strong interests who
would be induced to sell them only by
still higher prices.
In the early trading yesterday the
SS2C.o00 deficit in the reserve at the
Fed'rsl Reserve Bank Of members of
the .,ew York Clearing House Asso-
cla'c', which was revealed in the
weekly statement last Saturday, ten
ded to depress security values. and the
industrial shares had notably weak
tone almost until noon. But when
money III fair supply was offered at
per cent and bankers explained that
the deficit was not perilous, the in
fiuence on the condition of the banks
on the market began to wane.
Bond dealers reported slight i'm
provement in The investment market,
and predicted that after Labor Dav
activity in bonds would be greatly
heightened
Fractional losses were registered in
Liberty bond transactions. which con-
stituted most Of the dealings in bonds.

Insurance and Exchange

The depreciation Of European ex-
changes hich has been checked for
the moment affects the business world
IN more ways than most folks realize.
For example, hundreds OF American
business firms carry their insurance in
Great Britain with the Lloyds and are
insured in pounds and not in dollars.
When the pound went to a discount of
nearly Is per cent, those firms were
uninsured to that extent, and it was
reported yesterday that many firms in
sured in pounds have been increasing
the size of their policies to offset the
depreciation that has taken place.

Brokerage Firms Still Bullish

Brokerage firms which last week be
gan advising the purchase of stocks
still adhered to that position yester-
day, adding the word of caution, how
ever, that any advance should be
watched carefully for purposes OF tax
ing profits. Regarding Yesterdays
marke- they claimed to note an ABB
sence of selling pressure throughout
the session. which they thought in
dicated that many professional
traders were operating on the bull
side. In one quarter it was said that
Jesse Livermore had been a buyer of
railroad stocks during the day.

In Wall Street
Rails Become Strong

The unexpected display of strength
in the railroad stocks yesterday was
attributed to reports Of favorable
outcome to the conference in Wash
ingto.. between President Wilson and
Director General Hines. Firms with
direct wire connection with the CAPT
tai claimed to have information that
any increase in wages granted the
railway shopmcn would be followed
by a substantial increase in frci ght
rates. Market observes assert that q
large short interest in the rails has
been built up in the last few weeks
and yesterdays sudden rise in. quota
tons was said to have been greatly ac-
celebrated by purchases by those who
had previously sold for a profit. The
most notable gains were made by
Atkinson, st. Paul common, Erie first
preferred, Lchigh Valley, Norfolk &
Western, Reading and Union Pacific.

Hordes of Foreign Credit Seekers

Inquiries from European countries
which have not hitherto sought funds
IN this market We're reported yesterday
by the banks here. The procession of
agents Of foreign governments and in
dustrial enterprises to the banks and
banking houses here in quest of credits
seems almost unending, and one banker
suggested the necessity of traffic regu-
iatlons to keep the potential borrowers
IN llne. 1t was said in banking circles
that because the bankers had farled to
get the support necessary to work out
a comprehensive programme for tinanc-
ing the Old World, most foreigners on
special missions here are compelled to
be satisfied with a "perhaps later"
reply Those agents which have. been
over here for some time understand
the american side of the credit situa-
ton, but many Of the newcomers are
pcrpleXcd AT the delay. Germany is
still pressing her requests for aid. and
most of the large New York banks
have representatives in that country
