Tho unusual strength and activity OF
American Locomotive in yesterdays
stock market is understood to reflect
quiet accumulation which has been 60
Ing on recently by insiders who have
better knowledge Of the financial condi-
ton OF the company than has tho gem
eral public. The stock sold at a new
high record for the year yesterday
Those who are In position to know be-
lieve that American Locomotive is In a
much better position than is almost any
other equipment company in the coun-
try, and moreover they believe that the
stock Is way out OF line with the rest
OF the list considering the advance
which most OF the other industrials havo
experienced. The company's unified or
ders on December 81. 1917. amounted to
s54.5l7.37a. with about So, 000. 900 added
since that time in orders from Canada,
South America and Argentina with
the signing OF peace there is expected to
be tremendous demand for locomotives
because. contrary to the general belief.
II is claimed that the world Is actually
short Of locomotives rather than loaded
down with them.

Royal Dutch.

Shares OF Royal Dutch and Royal
Dutch OF New York were stock market
features yesterday. gaining more than
AZ points each, while, oddly enough,
Mexican Petroleum and other shares on
the list were losing some Of the ground
they had gained Much OF the strength
in the Royal Dutch shares is based on
foreign purchasing. II Is reported that
important developments in the company
are pending. One Of these reports was
that the Shell Transport and Trading
Company would increase its capitalize
ton and offer attractive rights to its
stockholders. Royal Dutch at the end
OF 1917 owned 604.665 shares OF Shell
Transport, and is believed to hold them
still. Private advices from Amsterdam
state that Royal Dutch will follow the
move OF She'll Transport and issue new
stock at 325 per cent II is calcula ted
that holders OF the American and New
York Royal Dutch shares on this basis
would have the right to subscribe 70
new stock at s13.55 a share. making the
rights worth in the neighborhood OF $50
a share

other Rail Oils.

In conservative circles It is believed
that entirely too much weight Is being
laid on possibilities of oil strikes being
made on some other Western railroad
properties. Those who are in a position
to know admit there is good foundation
for the speculation which has been going
on In Texas and Pacific and Southern
Pacific, but they are extremely doubtful
with respect to such properties as st.
Louis and San Francisco, Missouri. Kan
sas and Texas, Rock Island and more
especially Missouri Pacific II is no
secret that there are absolutely no oil
possibilities on the property of the latter
company, and yet the stock has advanced
In sympathy with the movement in Texas
and Pacific and the rest OF the rail oils.
As matter of fact the only oil interest
which Missouri Pacific has Ii in the
ownership Of $4,000 shares of Texas and
Pacific. This Is only a small portion of
tho stock. and when II is realized that
Texas and Pacific would have to advance
more than twenty points to add dollars
worth to Missouri Pacific II may be
seen how ridiculous some of tho rumors
are that are going the rounds with re-
spect to these companies,

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.


Texas and Pacific held tho limelight
In yesterdays stock market and was
the centre of attraction all day. closing
in q furry OF spasmodic jumps Of some
eh points up from its opening. 1t
naturally carried some Of the other oil
rails UP with 1t. A banking group which
has several members on the board Of
the company is reported to be respon-
sible for the abnormal movement and
the purchases of this clique have at
tracted a wide following. SO far as the
rail earnings of Texas and Pacific con-
Germ the general public, which Is fol-
lowing the action Of the stock. the prop
erty might as well be a pickle factory.
II Ia on It's oil outlook alone that they
expect financial profit. But accidentally
In this case the rail earnings are likely
to prove surprise. The oil boom in
Texas has brought It a great amount of
business and II Is said to be taking in
$500. 900 month at the Ranger station,
against $1,000 a year ago. One Of the
directors was quoted yesterday as say
ing that there Is enough oil on the
property to pay all of its debts and
lift the receivership.

Railroad Discrepancies.

Some figures on the financial aspect Of
the railroad tangle, which reached Wall
Street yesterday from Washington. rather
startled the bankers who heard them.
The figures are official. but have not
been released for publication. In De-
oen,ber. 1917. the last month Of private
operation. the railroad operating pay
roll was 40 per cent. of the revenue. In
January, 1919, the percentage figure was
SO. The difference Is more striking
when II Is considered that in January
last there was a decrease of per cent
in ton miles handled, compared with the
December 1917. showing. Despite tho
relative shrinkage OF traftic. the number
|of employees increased 10000, ana the
total labor cost increased s7s.ooo.ooo.
