Oil Shares Lead
Stock Market i'm
Further Recovery
Increase i'm Mexican Petro-
leum Dividend Brings
Buying; Oil Land Com
tr0versy Near Settlement

Oil shares led the stock market
yesterday in rather substantial re-
covery on the resumption Of trading
after the three days recess. Specula-
tive sentiment seemed generally cheer
full; pools were active in many
specialties, and the feeling was
abroad that the recovery might easily
go considerably further. The only un-
toward incident Of the day was rum
up in money rates in the afternoon
to 8 per cent, which checked the mo-
mentum IF the advance and brought
out some selling, though not enough
to upset the general equilibrium of
prices.
For the first time in week or more
the market moved in response to def
mite news Developments Oils were
strong apparently because of the ac-
tion of the directors of Mexican
Petroleum in increasing the dividend
on the common stocks over the holi-
days. This had been talked Of, but
was hardly expected at this time.
Then the news that the State Depart
mcnt at Washington had taken steps
to protect American property rights
in the Mexican oil fields impaired a

oils. Indications are that the difficulty
over title to certain properties in
Mexico which has arisen recently as a
result of the confiscatory DEGREES of
the late Carranza government are in
fair way toward an amicable settle
ment. The Doheny oil shares were the
most prominent on the recovery
Yesterday, but Royal Dutch, Shell
Transport and Texas Company were
also much higher.
Announcement of the terms of the
proposed merger of five leading
chemical companies caused wide price
National Aniline about the only one
of the group to display strength.
General Chemical reacted sharply. The
merger has been talked of for months
and Wall Street had until last week
been given to believe that the plans
for consolidation had been abandoned.
According to all signs the announce
ment of the terms of the new French
$100,000,000 government 8 per cent
loan operation has met with hearty
response in the way of advance
morrow, and it is understood
that the bankers who have under
written the loan have already re-
ceived a large amount Of subscriptions.
The coupon rate of per cent is very
high for a long term bond of this
character. The terms only serve to
emphasize the abnormal conditions
existing to-day in the investment
market There should be no doubt
about the success of the loan. A large
over-subscription of the French loan
might go good ways toward restor-
ing confidence in the general invest
ment situation.
Money rates hardened in the after.
noon because of the withdrawal of
S12,400,OO from the banks by the
Treasury Department. The operation
made necessary the calling of loans
in a small way. Call loan renewals
were made at 7 per cent. Again there
appeared in the money market some
small amounts of time money at 81 s.s
banks are now willing to loan out
even small amounts on time is lndlca-
tive of confidence in the outlook.

Hopeful on Mexico

Oil men in close touch with the
Mexican situation expressed the belief
yesterday that an early settlement
of the whole controversy between the
Mexicans and the Americans over title
to oil properties is nearing settlement
that will prove satisfactory to all par
ties concerned. The note sent to Mex
leo City by the American State. De-
partment will, it is believed, help to
straighten out the muss. The note
is said to be aimed ostensibly at the
alleged recog ltion by the Mexican gov.
ernment of announcement claims filed
against American owned oil lands. The
Carranza government had opened the
whole question by its conSscatory leg.

primarily to nationalize the oil lands

settled definitely period of intense
development work in the Mexican fields
will be likely to follow.

Chemical Stocks Erratic

Announcement over the week end of
the details of the proposed merger of
the General Chemical Company, Bar
rett, National Aniline, Solvay Process
and Scmet-Solvay impaired stimulus
yesterday to trading in those issues
which are listed here. The extreme
advance was registered by National
Aniline, which was UP 5& points at 83.
Barrett, which was up Az at the open
ing. declined to 14o at the close, but
still showed a net gain of y. General
Chemical, on the other hand, was ex-
tremely weak, stoclih olders apparently
not taking kindly to the terms on which
this company will be asked to enter

stock eased off in the final minutes of
trading TO 1856, net loss Of 16 points.

English oil producing interests witn
a large stake in the famous Rumanian
fields, which were overrun by the Ger
mans during the war, are inquiring in
the American market for Al 900 tons OF
steel casing for use in we'll boring.
Oil trade men intimated Yesterday that
the English would have trouble trying
to cover their needs here, inasmuch as
the American manufacturers have their
hands full keeping the domestic de-
mand supplied, If ee English can't

Railroad Reorganizations

In the present enthusiasm of the
bro kerage community over the pros
pect of higher prices for railroad
shares some houses are making much
of the point that reorganization plans
will be made considerably easier be-
cause of the rate advances. AS re-
suit Of the better outlook in this re-
spect it was pointed out that the notes
Of the Missouri, Kansas G. Texas have
enjoyed an advance of more than 10
points since the rate increase was an
nounced. Bankers interested in the re-
organization Of this road say that their
plans have not vet reached the stage
where a tentative draft has been nut
into print. 1t is generally expected.
however. that in order to raise the
necessary new money heavy assess

ferred and common stocks.

maintained, the selling was not forth

apparently recognizes that our funda-

~uation, sore spot for years, looks
like clearing up through the election
Of their new President. While this has
not been discounted in full by securi-
ties representing Mexican properties, it
has been anticipated in the oil stocks.

Philadelphia Company

When directors of the Philadelphia
Company meet for dividend action
some time within the next week or
ten days, it is expected they will in
crease the rate from 6 to per cent
on the $50 par value common stock. A
larger distribution to stockholders is
said to be justified by increased earn
ings. A recurrence Of strength in

declared to be due to the anticipated
