The Sold Out Corners,

The action Of the copper stocks yester
day furnished further proof OF the sold
out condition in the metal group. The
same thing happened with the uorphvry
coppers. when they announced their divi-
dend cuts, as occurred a fortnight ago
when the unfavorable reports for the
fourth quarter OF 1918 were given OUT
There had been a lot OF scattered short
selling on the theory that the news Of
the actual reductions would cause a
break In those issues. The cuts from a
$40 basis to IS In Utah. 81 to SO in
Chino. SO to 81 in Ray Consolidated. 50
to $3.50 in Nevada Consolidated were
not followed by liquidation. Sensing the
technical position. the shorts started to
bid for the stocks. which they could not
get at the low prices. Utah rising more
than points, Chino more than II and
the other porphyrys in proportion. It
did not take twenty minutes for the
shorts to cover and for the rest of the
day these issues did little.

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
Encouraging the Bulls.

The way the stock market acted in
the last hour yesterday gave distinct en-
couragement to the bulls and the novel
statement was made that the public Is in
the market, but contrary to all past ex-
perience short OF stocks. The rise was
helped by the superficial view that Judge
Gary's statement breathed optimism and
was devoid Of anything that could COM
fort the bears, the more or less well
authenticated private reports from
Washington that an extra session of
Congress would be called on or before
May and the we'll circulated report
that certificates OF Indebtedness would
be issued to solve the railroad predica =
ment. On the other hand judge Gary
intimated that business progress had
been affected temporarily by the asser-
ton of the Secretary OF Commerce that
II was desirable to anticipate possible
future adverse conditions, that Presi-
dent Wilson has stated that there would
be no extra session until he returns. the
date of that homecoming being uncer.
tain, and that the railroad problem is far
from being solved.

Baldwin LOGON olive.

Several pertinent questions were asked
by stockholders yesterday at the annual
meeting Of the Baldwin Locomotive
works In Philadelphia, not the least IN
teressting of which was that OF one John
Luntz OF Baltimore. who was very per-
sistent IN asking why no dividends had
been paid on the common stock. When
told by President johnson that the rea.
sons were set forth in the company's an
nual' report the questioner pressed the
point with, you earned the money, did
you not?' and received the reply that
the earnings We're shown in the annual
report. The president spoke OF plan
under consideration for the pensioning
OF employees out of earnings, and Luntz
again referred to the dividend PROPOSE
ton, declaring that he had no objection
TO the pension plan II dividends We're
paid first. The questions OF c. A. Morse
OF Clark, Childs & Co. OF New York re-
garding the company's 1918 balance
sheet were set aside with the promise
that he might obtain detailed informa-
ton in that respect at the conclusion OF

The Steel Meeting.

While there were many who espresso. i.
surprise that the steel representatives
attending the meeting at the Waldorf
Astoria yesterday voted unanimously in
favor of cooperating with the Industrial
Board OF the Department of Commerce
In promoting the Redfield plan for the
sterilization OF prices, vastly larger
number felt that the action was what
should have been anticipated. It Is truo
that there were innumerable rumors cur
rent In recent weeks to the effect that
steel men generally were opposed to the
plan, but they were mere rumors and
nothing definite TO which any important
opposition could be attached came from
any OF the leaders of the industry, The
view was taken In some quarters that
tho steel men could no more consistently
refuse to cooperate with the Redfield
board In the movement than they could
refuse at the beginning of the war to CO.
operate with the War Industries Board

America in the conflict

An Evidence OF Confidence.

Notwithstanding the cut in dividends
OF the four porphyry companies, all OF
which were looked for. the action of
other directors yesterday was indicative
of the feeling OF increased confidence
which Is sweeping the country In
three separate instances were increased
dividends voted by the directors.
namely, American Steel Foundries, Bar
rett Company and Allis-Chs liners. In
the first two increases were voted in
the regular quarterly dividends and in
the last the payment was on account
OF back dividends. which thus have
been reduced to az per cent The
stock of Steel Foundries was raised
from per cent to an per cent an
nual basis. That OF Barrett Company
was treated similarly.

Judge Gary's Address.

The statement made by Judge Gary
In his address to the representatives at
the meeting that the steel industry is in
better shape than we feared 1t would
be" was received in Wall Street with
appreciation yesterday afternoon. 1t was
pointed out that the chairman of the
Steel Corporation for several weeks has
been decidedly optimistic as to the future
OF the industry under peace conditions
and his reiteration Of the proposal was
considered decidedly favorable develop
ment. That there was perhaps too much
hysteria or near hysteria in business to-
day was intimated by the Judge when he
said. 1T have believed II business men
and others who are interested in business
conditions and results would reta in their
composure and courage we would grad
ually. II moderately. return TO a condi-
ton normal and satisfa ctory"
