In Wall Street
Daniel Drew's ImpossibiIity

Big things have happened in Wall
Street in recent years and there have
been many changes, but the outlook for
q dividend on Erie Railroad common
stock seems as remote as it was in the
days of. Jay Gould. An old Wall Street
man, with close to eighty years behind
him, who knew Jay Gould and Daniel
Drew and other men who made Wall
Street history back in those days, came
into the Street yesterday after long
absence He took a seat in a commits
sion house and scanned the quotation
board searchingly. His eyes rested on
Erie common, selling around $13 a
share. 81 remember once" said he to
the customer in the next chair, "of
Daniel Drew rcmarking that there was
only one impossbility in Wall Street.
That was the declaration of a dividend
on Erie common. 1t looks as if my old
friend was right" President Under
wood of the Erie made himself fam Gus
few years ago by remarking that he
would remain at the head of the road
until the common stock had been placed
on dividend basis.

Money Squeeze
Halts Advance
In Stock Market
Prices Break Under Pressure
of Liquidation as Call the
Loan Rate Climbs to Is
Per Gent

Soaring money forced liquidation in
sufficient volume to reverse the trend
of stock prices yesterday. 1t was the
most severe money squeeze witnessed
since an acute shortage of funds caused
wide open break in security values in
the latter part of November.
The market opened firm and began
Immediately to advance, active railroad
stocks being conspicuously strong in the
early trading. Passage of the Cummins
bill by the Senate after the close of
the market Saturday was chiefly respon-
siole tor this Improvement although the
tact that the industrial section of the
list also held we'll indicated that senti
ment generally was optimistic But
when money oponed and renewed at T
per cent and brokers found it none too
easy to procure funds even at that rate.
the selling movement began and the
course OF prices changed abruptly. The
pressure increased in force when the
tickers flashed out the news that the
supreme Court had taken a recess until
january without handing down the
long awaited decision in the stock divi-
dend tax case. Many spectators had
purchased large blocks of the stocks
which would be most benefited by a
favorable decision in that case, and they
were not inclined to carry their holdings
two weeks longer with the prospect of
dear money ahead
But the downward movement did not
gam Its greatest momentum until well
lnlo the afternoon, when the demand for
money began to outrun the supply by q
wide margin. This was due not so much
nd nd tn
ply. The bank statement Saturday
showed that the reserves of Clearing
House institutions were below require
ments, and IN order to wipe out the def
lclt the banks restricted offerings con-
slderably. AT the same time, they re-
fused to renew a considerable amount
OF time loans which fell due. and this
compelled borrowers who had been re-
lying on sucn renewals to seek accom-
moa&tion in the demand loan market.
Money remained in scant supply
right up to the close of the market and
the final quotation, Is per cent, was the
of refusing renewals Of maturing time
loans should be continued, as some bank
ers say it will be, the difficulties of the
situation would be increased, and no
great Improvement could be expected
until after the turn Of the year.
The bond market was broad and ac-
tive, but with contradistinct tendencies.
Liberty issues were sold heavily and
went lower. Railroad bonds, however,
were firm as rule and in cases decid-
edly strong. The outstanding feature
was the strength of Baltimore e. Ohio
issues, the improvement in which was
attributed to the passage of the Cum
mlns bill. While it is generally recog-
nized that the outcome of the railroad
situation is still very uncertain, the con-
viction that favorable action will not
be delayed much longer is spreading.
New-York tribune., 1919-12-23
Tight Money Again

Tight money damped the ardor of
the bulls and put new life into the
bears yesterday. The Street talked
about money most of the day, par
ticularly after the Supreme Court ad-
iourned without handing down the
stock dividend decision. 1t looked for
general firming up in view of the
deficit in reserves reported by the
Clearing House banks on Saturday.

They proceeded rather cautiously in
their operations, however, and al no
time became aggressive. People wh )
continue to talk Of higher prices after
the turn of the year, and the Street
IS full of them, insist that there are
thousands Of individuals who sold their
stocks in order to establish losses for
tax purposes, intending to buy them
back lower. Most Of them are still
waiting, it is said. The bond market
was very active again yesterday and
repurchases were reported by investors
who had sold to establish losses. The
next two or three weeks should see the
appearance of a demand for bonds for
relnVestment purposes.
New-York tribune., 1919-12-23
Stock Dividend Possibilities

1t was another disappointing day for
those in the Street who hoped for de-
cision by the Supreme Court in the
stock dividend case. Few people real
ize the number Of corporations which
are waiting for this decision and which
will cut some juicy melons for their
stockholders if it is favorable. The list
would probably reach fifty of the
concerns that are we'll known to the
Street. Take the Standard Oil group, for
instance. A full dozen out of the group
around forty Standard Oil concerns are
almost certain, oil men say, to declare
stock dividends. The Standard Oil Of In
diana, Continental Oil, Standard of
Nebraska, Atlantic Refining and the
Standard of Ohio have already au-
thorized capital increases and are in a
position to vote distributions. Others
that are expected to cut melons in case
the decision is favorable are the Ohio
Oil, Prairie Oil and Gas, Solar Rein
ing, Standard Of Kansas, Standard OF
New Jersey, Standard of New York.
and the Vacuum Oil.

Money and Credit

The call money situation became
acute again yesterday, and the rate
after renewing at T per cent advanced
before the close of the stock market
to 15 per cent on active bidding for
funds by brokers. This was the nigh
est rate since November IL. AS pre-
dicted previously in this column. a
large amount Of time loans are now
maturing and bankers are not renew
ing them because of preparations for
the January ] requirements. As a re-
suit the demand for call loans has
been increased. The deficit Of the
Clearing House banks last week was
also regarded as factor in bringing
about tighter money.
The ruling rates ror money yester-
day: compared with year ago, were

the prospects are favorable for the
extra being paid for the next year at
least. The common stock has been or
a So annual basis since last June. when
1t was reduced from S. The extra and

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

Rates on the capitals of the former
belligerent nations of Continental Eu-
rope moved slightly in their favor yes
terday and reduced a small part of the
premium on the American dollar. For
time sterling exchange was firm, but
after a day Of fluctuations it closed
virtually at the same level as on Sat
urday.
To settle the unfavorable balance of
trade between the United States and
the Argentine, $2,750.000 more OF gold
has been shipped from New York to
Buenos Ayres. The balance is caused
mainly by tremendous shipments of
wool to this country, and has been met
in part by the sending of $4,000 900

PRICE OF CORN
Excessive. Rains Has Bullish In.
fiuence Because of Likely
Delay in Planting.

Chicago, May 3.-Excessive rains
likely to delay planting had de-
cided hnllish influence today on the
corn market. Buyers were in a
great majority, and gave but little
heed to other factors than those
tending to make the planting sea
son late. Demand, however, was
mostly for small lots. Opening
prices, which ranged from 1c to
3hac higher. with July 167 to 1853
and September 1.63A to 1.642s were
followed by material gains.
Oats reflected the advance OF
corn. After opening 1ac to 1Ac
higher. with July 72H, to 725s, the
market underwent something of a
reaction.
Provisions were strong as a re-
suit of upturns in corn and hogs
Trade, though, lacked volume.
No important setback took place
in the later dealings. Prices closed
strong, 23sc to 81 net higher, with
July 1.6S9s to 1855 and Septem-
Der 1.6415 to 1.64az
Most of the days gains on the
provision market were held at the
finish.
