endeavor was established at Van
couyer, B. c., Tuesday, August II,
when nearly 100 missionaries from
the Foreign Mission Board of the
Southern Baptist Convention, sailed
on the Canadian Pacific liner, the
Empress of Japan, for stations in
China ANA Japan. This is the larg-
est number of missionaries that has
ever gon. out at single time from
a single denomination to work in
other lands since the beginning Of
Christian missions, and marks a dis
tinct advance in the mission work
of Southern Baptists. Representa-
tives of a dozen Southern and South

party.
This unusually large delegation Of

workers was made possible by the

Swinging With the Tide

With the exception of few Of the
rails in which there was concerted
buying, the stock market as a whole
demonstrated again yesterday the lack
of buying power SO essential to any
pronounced upswing. Most of the
buying in the industrial end Of the
list plainly came from shorts When
they had covered their needs the mar
ket slipped off again. This happened
several times during the session and
was responsible for the erratic course
taken by prices. Whenever industrials
showed any pronounced tendency tow
ard coming back they met fresh sell
ing from the professional bears. The
viewpoint of professional Wall Street
is summed up by leading house thus:
1T is very evident that Washington's
policy of defation and restricted credit
IS to be pursued until the desired end
is accomplished. This again has been
made clear by the Federal Reserves
report, followed by increased rates for
money and another slight advance in
discount rates. There is therefore no
use OF trying to shut ones eyes to the
inevitable and thereby lose money. 1t
is safer, while such a powerful influ-
ence is at work, to swing along with
the tide, if specializing; or if playing
for longer pull and bigger results
coniine ones purchases to those parts
OF the list where the future presents
a brighter prospect than it seems to

the market favorites almost continually

Lows on Midday Dip

Speculative sentiment in the stock
market was swayed yesterday by high
ly conflicting influences and the price
movements were extremely irregular
Cross currents of buying and selling
resulted in rapidly alternating de-
clines and recoveries, in which pro-
fessional operations were the doni-
mating factor. The closing range oe
prices was very uneven, although
most industrial shares closed we'll
above the low prices of the day and
the railway department showed many
substantial net gains.
The market opened with a display of
pronounced strength when General
Motors, Cruicible Steel and num-
Der Of the leading speculative indus
trials were taken in hand and moved
sharply ahead, The buying on the
early rise came largely from the pro-
fessional shorts and as soon as it
slackened and prices began to ease OFF
the rails came to the front. The rally
did not hold, however, and around mid
day the whole market went into q
sharp decline. with the rails acting
relatively better than the industrials.
On this decline United States Steel
common stock made a new low record
of 9214. Steel sold ex the quarterly
dividend of IN, so that in reality its
low was 931a. 1t closed point and
half up from the bottom.
In the afternoon the railroad is-
sues again became the center of specu-
lative interest The low-prced rails
became fairly buoyant in some cases,
notably Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
common stock, which rose more than
4 points to above 40. An interesting
feature in connection with the re-
newal of speculative buying in the
rails was the fact that the dealings in
Rock Island we're larger than In any
other issue, not excepting the indus
trial leaders. 1t has been a long time
since Wall Street has seen a market
i'll which a railroad stock has been the
leader in point Of activity, for since
1914 speculative interest has been al
most entirely confined to the indus
trials.
The improvement in the railroad is-
sues conceded with the announcement
that the Attorney General had pro-
nounced the railroad bill constitutional
and had passed it along to the Presi-
dent tor his signature.
To all outward appearances there
was no Improvement in the money
situation and call loans renewed at 10
per cent the same rate as on Thurs
day. In the afternoon just before the
close the call rate advanced to 12 per
cent. The foreign exchanges showed
a somewhat better tone.

Porphyry Copper
Earnings Small in
Final 1919 Quarter
Neither the Chino COMPANY
Nor the Nevada Company
Earned Full Dividends ON
Stock; Surplus for Utah

Two of the three leading porphyry
'opper producing companies, the Chino
md the Nevada Consolidated, failed to
earn their full dividends in the three
months period ended December 81
last, according to the statements is
sued to the stockholders yesterday.
The Utah Copper Company alone re-
ported a surplus of $262,721, an in
crease Of $992,21S over the correspond
ing period of the preceding year.
The Chino Copper reported net
operating profits of $49O,627, equiva-
lent to 56 cents share, which COM
pares with $702,384, or 80 cents a share
IN the preceding quarter, and $66,801,
or Z cents share, in the December,
1918, quarter.
Tota profits of s2.699,456 were
shown by the Utah company. eouiva-
lent to Sl.66 a share, against $2,419.-
ol2, or $1.48 in the preceding quarter,
and 1881 ,728, or s2.05 share, in tho
corresponding period Of the year be-
fore. The Nevada Copper returned a
net after depreciation and taxes of
$6S7,290, equivalent to 34 cents a
share, compared with s464,449, or 2
cents share, in the September quarter
and S10,1S9. or one-half cent, in the
last quarter of 1918.
Dividends received by the holders
Of the Chino Copper stock aggregated

For the year ended December 81,
1919, the Utah Copper Company earned
$5.o8 a share, compared with s1l.66 a
share in the preceding year. Net
operating profits of the Chino Com
pany in the year were $I,389,9S5.
equivalent TO $3.50 a share. against

The Nevada Consolidated profits IN
1919 were $1,225,357, equivalent to 81

In Wall Street
Awaiting President's signature

Bankers and railroad men yesterday
looked for President Wilson to affix
his signature to the railroad bill
within twenty hours. The favor
able report Of Attorney General Pal
mer upon the constitutionaiity Of the
bill was made the basis for bullish
demonstration in railroad stocks on
sign the bill before Monday March /,
otherwise the railroads go back TO
private control without protective legis-
lation.
Rails Supply n Leader
For the first time in years rail-
road stock held the center Of the
speculative stage in Wall Street yes
terday. Erstwhile industrial favorites,
even Steel common, the old standby
Of the market, were forced to give
way to Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
common stock, which rushed up like q
"war baby" Rock Island was "a we'll
bought stock" all day long, expert OBJ
servers said, but the biggest wave OF
buying came in the afternoon. carrying
it to 40h. 1t closed at 40, up AS
points, with total turnover of 112,-
500 shares. Dealings in Steel common,
its closest competitor in point Of activ-
ity, were less than 100000 shares. Since
it became evident that the railroad
bill would pass, Rock Island has risen
TN points. Heavy buying from Chi
cago has been reported on several oc-
casions and it was mainly the demand
from that quarter, combined with good
buying from Palm Beach, that pushed
it up yesterday. Market analysts have
been pointing out for several days that
on the basis of the railroad legislation
Rock Island should earn 10 to 10 per
cent on its common stock. The Inter-
state Commerce Commission in its re-
port for June, 1915, showed $64,000,-
900 greater valuation than the roads
capitalization of s410,0O0,o00, and since
then the road has plowed back into
the property some $17,00o,000 for the
betterments and improvements.
