southern Pacific.

1t probably will be long time before
any rail stock wrests the rail market
leadership from Southern Pacific. just
as it probably will be long time be-
fore the industrial market leadership
is wrested from United States Steel.
Several roads have bobbed up here and
there as potential leaders. but all of
them have lacked the sustained strength
shown by the stock of the big Southern
road. Yesterday Southern Pacific jumped
into the lead OF its group and held 1t all
day. closing with a net advance Of two
points Somebody knows something" Is
the general comment on Southern Pa
cific. One big house has been a consist
ent purchaser OF the stock for three
weeks and yesterday increased It's line
some 10000 shares. The impression that
the something Is developments In con-
nection with Mexico prevails. Southern
Pacific earned s12.96 In 1919 and the profit
and loss surplus at the end OF the year
was s152, 0O0, 900. In the six months ended
on June 81 gross earnings approximated
s107. 694 900. an IS per cent. increase COM
pared with those of the preceding year.
OF that amount. however, a trifle more
than 100000 was realized as net oper-
ating income, the balance coming into
the corporations strongbox through its
125 or more affiliated enterprises. 1t Is
In those affiliated enterprises. strongly
linked up with Mexico and oil, that its
possibilities lie.

GREAT FARM BANK IS
URGED IN CONGRESS
Marketing of Crops as Needed
Also Called For.

wAsHrNoroN, Oct. 2s.--Resolutions
urging that all crops be marketed as the
demand requires and that Congress con-
duct an investigation OF interest rates
charged by banks and TO consider the
establishment OF great national agri-
cultural bank were adopted to-day by
the farmers conference In session here.
All farmers we're urged to Join existing
cooperative marketing organizations or
organize new ones and Congress was
asked TO give the Federal Farm Loan
Board authority to issue and sell in the
open market short term securities based
on warehouse receipts issued under the
Federal warehouse act
Delegates to the conference interpreted
the resolution for marking as the de-
mand requires az authorizing holding
movement OF cotton, wheat and other
great farm staples.
The resolutions as adopted were
recommended by tho policy committee
which was appointed at the opening ses-
sion yesterday. Benjamin G.. Marsh,
secretary of the Farmers National
Council. refused to sign the committee re-
port. submitting a minority one request

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
stock. Firm In Narrow Market.

Stocks did not get out of their trading
area yesterday. although the upturn
which started during Thursday after
noon continued. except In smaller vol
ume and to narrower extent. Pre-holi-
day evening up was in evidence. but
the market continued to reflect pressure
OF high call money. and although the
tone was firm and most quotations adj
vanced. there was no disposition TO view
the session as anything more than a
rally or the start OF a rally. There were
special movements in certain stocks.
Mexican Petroleum, for instance, ad-
vanced on rumors that the Mexican
Government would be recognized, ru-
NOR that was promptly denied. Royal
Dutch. on the other hand. was heavy
because of Holland liquidation. United
Fruit became active and strong on stock
dividend prospects. Reports that 10000
900 pounds of copper had changed hands
at IS cents were not confirmed, and after
temporarily perking up. the copper
shares settled back In the doldrums.
The average of rails and industrials.
taking twenty representative stocks In
every group. advanced approximately
half a point.

National Bank Call Expected.

Ono reason for the heavy Withdrawals
OF country funds from the banks OF New
York is to furnish window dressing for
a call expected to be issued by the Comp
troller for n statement OF national bank
conditions at the end OF this month. OF
course every country bank wants its sur
plus funds at home at the time OF call
to make the best showing possible and
that expectation has brought about n
heavy series of Withdrawals. That drain,
the exceptionally large checks by the
Government this week and the arrange
ment for month end disbursements have
been n considerable strain on the call
market and money was again in demand
yesterday. The opening and renewal
rate OF 0 per cent was soon displaced
by a rate OF 10 per cent. incidentally,
some money brokers are wondering Just
where the Government is putting all OF
the money II has withdrawn this week
Generally some checks for the early in
the week Withdrawals would have been
returned by this time. but so far none
of them has put In an appearance.

standard OIL. Reorganization.

The $50 per cent. stock dividend de-
clared by the Standard Oil Company Of
Indiana did not surprise the Street q
great deal because it had been known
that the Supreme Courts decision In the
stock dividends case was only being
awaited that most of the Standard units
might proceed with capital stock read
justments. The chairman of the Stand
ard OIL OF Indiana declared yesterday
that that corporations capitalization has
been out OF line for long time and that
the declaration of the dividend was a
step toward the correction of that condi-
ton. That q company with properties
which represent an investment OF $685.
100000 should have capital stock to the
amount of only about one-sixth OF that
sum Is absurd" he declared. Low capt.
tallzation gives false idea Of the extent
OF earnings and, when expressed in per-
centages, creates an impression OF inor-
dinate profits and arouses sentiment
Our action will tend to bring about a bet
ter understanding of the magnitude OF
the corporation and true relation of its
earnings to the capital investment IL
represents" From a close of $3.50 a
share, its stock advanced to $500. then
reacted to s77o share and closed at
$3.50. It's new stock. In which there was
no trading. was quoted 1913 bid and 1926
