Sterling Exchange
Mounts ON Reports
OF Influx of Gold
Rate for Pound Goes to, the
Highest Level in Four
Months; Lapland Said
To Be Bringing Metal

With the rise of sterling exchange
to $396 for cables, the highest level
reached in more than four months, it
in New York and London that large
shipments of gold to the United States
were imminent.
The steamer Lapland, which is due to
dock at Pier 81 tomorrow morning at
. o'clock, according to reports, is carry
ing cargo of gold estimated as high
as $10,000,000. At the executive offices
of the International Mercantile Marine
Company, which operates the steam
ship, it was denied the company had
been informed that gold was aboard
the ship. j. P. Morgan & Co., fiscal
agents of the British government, de-
clined to confirm or deny the reports.
In response to an inquiry as to
whether it was likely that the British
treasury would be shipping gold so
long in advance to help meet the Anglo
French loan, which natures on October
10, an international banker, in close
touch with British financial plans, said:
"You could hardly expect the British
government to wait until October 12 to
ship gold"
Kuhn, Loeb G. Co. yesterday received

month. The aggregate amount received
IN connection with this operation,
which is said to be unrelated to the
Anglo-French loan, is s2,45OOO0.
The fact that the weekly statement of
the Bank of England revealed loss
OF $l2,4OO,OOO added weight to the re-
ports that large gold shipments were
coming In the London bullion market,
according to cables, it was said that
a4'o00,000 in gold would be sent to
America this week.
In relatively broad market, sterling
Siosed s1s cents pound higher yester-
DAY than on the previous day, and ac

panks' who were said to be buyinp
largely for their own account. Francs
ana lire were steady, but did not move
fordward with sterling. 1t was reporte1
the British government was selling
some sterling in London for dollars,
but this did not retard the upward
movement of the pound, which had been
down to $3.19 early in February.

Stock Exchange on Good Friday, the
brokers began circulating a petition
yesterday to close the Saturday fol-
lowing as we'll. The indications were
that there was an overwhelming senti-
ment in favor of the triple holiday,
particularly in view of the balmy
spring weather which has prevailed
this week. Should this continue it is
likely that many brokers will leave
the Thursday night before Good
Friday and will not return until the
following Monday no matter what ac-
ton the governors take regarding their
petition

Confusion in General Motors

General Motors had another hectic
time Of it yesterday when the common
400, dropped back to 377 and closed at
391, with net gain of points. An
unusual feature of the trading in the
new shares was that at the opening
they sold at the equivalent Of 420 for
the old stock. The two issues soon
got together, however, on a realiza-
tion by traders that there was no real
reason for the earlier disparity. In
some quarters the big arbitrage pos
sibilities in the two stocks during the
first few minutes was attributed to
the rather obscure dividend announce
ment of the company, which was in
terpreted by some as meaning that
the two stocks were no longer good de-
liveries against each other.
