New YORK. Dec 39.--The United
States Finishing Co. has omitted tho
quarterly dividend on its common stock.

the cotton goods trade. The last divi-
dend OF u per cent was paid on Oc-
tober l6 Tho regular quarterly divi-
dend OF IA per cent on the preferred

one OF the officials. We are suffering
with our competitors from the present

NEW YORK COFFEE MARKET

New York. Dec. 20.--The market
for coffee futures opened lower again
this morning with first prices showing
losses of to 10 points. The cables
were poor and the early official cable
reported Santos futures IL 5to 200 reis
off. with q special cable received few
minutes after the call reporting that
market unchanged to further decline of
125 reis.
The very weak condition prevailing
in the primary markets. has checked
business in the local exchange. some
feeling that prices have already reached
low level beyond which it is not safe
to follow for fear that any favorable
development might cause sharp up
turn in values.
At the same time buying power is
limited. and unless conditions become
settled. there is no general disposition
shown to buy the market. Consequently
the volume of business from day to day
continues small. with the price trend
slowly downward.
Around midday values were of a
couple Of points from initial figures.

Commodity Markets
, COTTON MARKET

New York, Dec. 2o.--Pronounced
weakness Of Liverpool cables this morn =
ing, due to lack OF confidence In fnan =
cial conditions, started selling wave
in the local cotton market that broke
first prices 20 to 80 points. Among the
more prominent sellers we're Liverpool
houses, southern and Japanese interests,
spot concerns and Wall street.
There was, however. an excellent de-
mand for Investment accounts through
commission firms which shortly after
the call absorbed the offerings and
paved the way for q sharp upturn that
carried prices about 20 points above ths
opening, when new low records for the
season we're made.

the total deficit of the Swiss Govern
ment railroads at the end of 1921 to

The proposed budget for next year
estimates the needs Of the railway treas :
ury al l33. .000, 900 francs. The pro.
posal Is submitted that the Federal
council in conjunction with the railway
authorities and the Swiss National
Bank be authorized by the Legislature
to issue consolidation loan to a maxi
mum Of 500, 200, 900 francs IN order to
cover the floating debt and the treasury
needs for the year 1921.
The continuing deficit at which the
roads are being operated is attributed
by the railway officials to the exces.

stantly increasing wage and salary de-
mands Of the railway personnel. In
order to combat the fuel costs, the rec.
ommendatiOn is made that the electrif-
cation program now well under way be
