Delaware & Hudson

Question--Can you give me any infor.
nation 10 to condition of Delaware & Hnd
son, which had been a consistent dividend
low confuses me.-J. E.
Answer-Delaware & Hudson. based
on earnings for ten months of 1919.
showed an annual rate equal to 1.1e per
cent on the $42,5o3 900 capital stock
against 206 per cent for 1918 and II rs
per cent for 1917. The government
gauarantee shows II per cent. Unless
this condition of affairs is corrected
Delaware & Hudson cannot keep up it's
9 per cent dividend. The uncertainty
IN the minds Of many investors has
been such that all railroad securities
have declined materially. Con.truct;re
legislation and increased freight rates
would, Of course, tend to change con-
ditions.

former being exchanged on the basis
of one share for one-half share Of the
latter. The time for this exchange
has passed, but subject to the approval
of counsel of the Iron Products Com

Wheat-The advices from the West de-
clared that the government stock of wheat
at st. Louis. Kansas City and Omaha as
tricts has been sold Offers to domestic
mills from all sources are extremely
small and the efforts on the part of the
British wheat commission to seure offers
for export through individual firms have
brought out very little wheat At the same
time. according to the latest report by the
stocks Of wheat in all elevators And mills
are 251 .069.000 bushels. compared with
2ba 1900 a yeaF AGO. oo thna oa
less In the country than there was a year
ago, and at the same time the stocks OF
fiour are said to be about twice as large
as they were last year at this time. One
authority explains the tightncss In the
market due to the fact that wheat is
not in commercial channels and conse-
quenty not easily available. Prices. how
ever, continue to. advance, ana -four. cs-
pecially for the hard wheat grades, has
gained in comparison.
C0rn-Tne market was moderately ac-
tice and price changes were feverish. Re-
ceipts were again small. and cash mar
kets were strong. while advices from tho
West said that exporters had purchased
about 250.000 bushels at Chicago and rome
OF the interior markets. On every ad-
vance. however. there was quite active
selling, and at the close OF the day the
undertone was easy. with fin1i prices IA
to l cent net lower.

Told Money win BE poubIed

Told Money Will BE Doubled
Question: have been advised to buy FRO
ducers and Refners at 1919. The people
who want me to buy it say will double
what you think c. x.
Answer-When you purchase oil
stock you usually enter the speculative
field. Producers and Refiners is ap-
parently good company. 1t had de-
veloped its properties considerably and
its production is good. Don't infer
from this, however, that we believe
you can double your money by buying
the stock. Owing to it's speculative
character, the price is just as likely
to 60 down as up.
Interested in American Writing PAPER
Question---Information relative to the
earningse. Of American Writing Paper Com
meeting, at which the question Of payment
of back dividends on the preferred stock
can be taken up. to take place? What is
the condition of Chicago. Milwaukee & st.
Paul Railroad as to earnings. euuipment.
etc. &c. j. D.
Answer-American Writing Paper
Company makes public it's statement OF
earnings but once year. For 1915
the amount earned equalled 1902 pei
cent on the $12,500 900 preferred stock
Uno ,ficial reports state that earnings
are better than last year. The dates
for dividends are April and October
No notice has been given regarding
a meeting, but it will probably be the
first part of April. Chicago, Milwaukee
& St. Paul is doing very badly at pres
ent. 1t is not earning its fixed charges
But that may change il constructive
legislation is enacted. We have no
means Of ascertaining the condition OF
its equipment. The electrihcation OF
part of its road cost it a great deal
more than Originally estimated.
