GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.


Yesterdays market developed into
typical preholiday session. In which to-
days election cut very little figure. As
q result the rank and file Of Wall Street
went home last night wondering just
what the market would do at its re-
opening to-morrow morning. One thing
Is certain, the market has not responded
to the prospective Republican victory.
Whether II win be taken care OF to-mor-
row or whether the election viii pass
into history as one which the market
did not discount are problems that the
market itself will answer later I'm the
week. Several firms yesterday advised
their customers to sell stocks on any
rallies brought by a Harding landslide.
because money and not politics is the
markets controlling factor. Southern
Pacific led the way yesterday with a
wide gain on reports that Standard Oil
would take over its oil properties Prac-
tically all of the oils were strong. but
the market was given an irregular hue
by weakness which broke out in few
stocks, notably United States Rubber.
which broke $40 for the first time
American Sumatra Tobacco and United
Fruit after the stock dividend news was
out. The market continued In the hands
of professional traders and sales again
fell below the haif viiliion mark.

Wall Street vas not at all surprised
yesterday when directors of the United
Fruit Company declared a stock divi-
dend of ZOE per cent. In fact. surprise
would have been occasfoned had such a
dividend not been declared, because the
schedule was we'll known. On the
theory that the news was out consid-
cradle stock was offered on the way
down, and United Fruit. which sold nj
221 during the morning, dropped below
pit Just before the close. The surprise
for traders lay in an increase OF the
cash dividend to an amount equivalent
to 16 per cent. on the old stock ana
ner cent. on the new, in view OF the
possibility Of the company having to re-
sort to surplus to aid in the payment
of that dividend during lean periods.
1t is understood that its earnings nave
-dropped from the high water mark OF
$500. 600 a month to approximately
1925. 600 and that 1t has been obliged TO
take a stiff loss on its sugar deals.
