STOCK MARKET
/ CLOSES STRONG
Much Profit Taking Occurs
On Eve Of Good Friday
| Holiday,
n, BRoABAN WALL.

New York. April IL. = Wall Street
celebrates Good Friday as holiday
and because OF that there was con-
siderable profit taking this afternoon
This cut down the high prices estab-
1ished in the, morning, but In spite
of that the market was strong up to
the very close of the session.
A few stocks closed at the hest,
particularly Distillers and American
Steel Foundries. Cotton Oil, Amer
lean Hide and Leather. Loose wfles.
Ice Preferred. National Lead and In
ternationai Nickel and Pierce OIL
we're among those that established
new high records for the day. u. s.
Steel was quiet. The most spectac-
ular movement OF the day was in
Cramps Shipbuilding on the curb and
in the Philadelphia market
Brokers say that the public Is
more interested in the market than
the so-called big people. This morn
ing the Street heard that an inn
portant announcement would be
made by the American international
in connection with Industrial Aleo-
hol AS a result both stocks were
Strong. The announcement came
finally in the shape Of the resigna-
ton of w. s. Kies and r. T. Tirse-
ley. representatives of the Amer = ~
international from the Industrial
Alcohol board of directors with the
admission that the international hs d
liquidated its investment in the al
.cohol company. This caused a break
of four points in alcohol. but stock
holders of International felt very
comfortable, for xhe stock must have
been sold at a handsome profit.
The cashing in of this investment
together with a call for $50 a share
on International. makes it evident
that some very important transaction
is in contemplation.
Shipping men say there will be a
great falling off in the demand for
ships in July and August because such

used for transportation of food TO

middle Of July. 1t is quite probable.
however. that heavy shipments, of
food will continue during July ana
August because American wheat will
then become available.
Heayiness of American Car and
Foundry is fully explained by the pro-
tests from railroads having too many
cars. They want locomotives. and for
that reason the locomotive stocks are

Plan Proves Success.
Mr.. Teagle undertook almost i'm
mediately to put his plan into effect
A year has passed since it was per-
fected and he was able to say at
the recent conference and dinner
that the effect of il had been highly
satisfactory. The basic principle is
mutual advantage and common in
terest and full recognition of Ger
man humanity. He is now confident
that nothing but a little more time,
experience and cooperation are
necessary to demonstrate to Amer
ican industry the success OF indus
trial representation.
Mr.. Teagle did not know that al
