gage the Syracuse eleven In what
Is considered by the coaches the
hardest game of the season for the
Blue and Gold OF Pitt. 1t Is the
general opinion that the game ia
a $3.50 proposition, and that the
team getting the breaks will land
the contest. Pitt will face Syracuse
tomorrow with a better fighting
spirit than last year and this may
count for something. Pitt was
handed a fearful walloping last
year. The game was played Just
after the West Virginia game, and
the Pitt lads were a bit too con.
fdeut to play their best football
Pitt coaches say they will be sat
isfled to win by any score tomor,
row. Both teams are possessed Of
much scoring power, and it will
not be surprising to see each team
score a touchdown or two. The
team with the best defense will
likely land the game.

Big Well Completion; In

Striking gains were reg1 stssed in sew
eral Of the speculative oil shares on

largest turnover In stocks in several
days.

Dividends on Coppers Reduced

Question-How do you regard the follow
ing stocks an inves tment in small
amounts: Cuba Cane Sugar preferred. Cru
chile Steel preferred. American Smelling and
Refining preferred' Which OF the copper
stocks do you consider tho best investment
Of the coppers for earnings and safety Of
Investment e. S. S.
Answer-Crucibl Steel preferred, on
account OF the company's large earn
ing power, appears to offer a good in
vestment opportunity at the presen.
time. American Smelling and Refining
Company has not done so we'll of late;
still we believe the preferred stock is
a fairly good investment. Cuba Cane
Sugar is said to be showing the best
earnings in its history. The company
is comparatively new, having as yet
operated during rather prosperous
times only. For this reason we do not
consider the preferred stock as sea-
soned. Copper shares, generally
speaking, are not investment issues.
The nature of the business places them
in the speculative class. Most OF the
large producers have reduced their
dividends during the last year, as earn
ings reflected depressed conditions IN
the metal market.

American Can Sells
$12,OOO,OO Notes
Proceeds Will Provide Com.
pany With 1920 Tinplate
Requirements

The First National Bank announced
late yesterday that it had pur-
chased sl2,0O0,Oo0 discount notes Of
the American Can Company. The notes
are being sold to banking institutions
throughout the country on a TX per
cent interest basis. They are dated
April 12 and will mature in instruments
Of s3,o00.000 each on September -,
October 10, November y and Docem-
Der 10.
This financing is similar to that put
into effect year ago when the com
pany sold similar amount Of notes
10 finance it's tin plate requirements for
the fall trade. The last of that issue
was retired in December. The new
notes will be retired from this year g
sales Of the company's products.
In a circular TO the bankers the
company states that its current assets
amount TO approximately s45000.00
against current liabilities Of $500
600, leaving a working capital Of s39,-
100000
Further conferences were understood
TO have been held yesterday regarding
new financing by the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company. 1t was stated in
investment circles that the reported
issue Of $4,000, 600 new notes would
run for ten years at an interest rate

Not Rated Quite So High

Question-wil you kindly express your
opinion a. to the safety Of Railway Steel
Spring preferred as an estate investment ?
How does it compare as an investment propo-
sition with United States Steel preferred or
Standard Oil of New Jersey preferred or
Atlantic Refining prefcrred?-G. w. H.
Answer Railway Steel Spring Com
pany preferred, in our opinion, is not
entitled to ss high rating as United
States Steel preferred. Earnings Of the
former have been ample Of late to caro-
for preferred dividends and also leave
a substantial amount for the juaior
issue, but the company's business is
not so diversified as that of tho United
States Steel Corporation. Both Stand
ard Oil of New Jersey and Atlantic Re
fning have recently issued preferred
stocks for the first time in their his
tories. Both Of these corporations have
been large earners for many years.
They are engaged In all branches of
tn" oil business, being producers, re-
fnors and distributors. This diversi-
tcation gives greater stability 20 earn

ion pertaining TO the above stocks will be

Answer-The last heard of Maxim
Munitions was when the president of
the company offered to let the stock
holders in on a proposition to start
concern to be known as the Amalgamat-
ed Tire Stores Company. This priv
lege called Cor the turning in Of the
stock. together with a payment Of So
share. We understand that very few
stockholders awaited themselves Of this
offer, with the result that the Maxim
Munitions stock is quoted at nil Vic
toria Oil is reported to be producing,
although no official information is
forthcoming. The stock sells for about
$l50 share. Kenova Oil, quoted /

Deficit for Phelps

Company Earned STA a
Share on Capital Stock; Cop
per Production Slumns

On total production Of lo3,a3o,S5s
pounds of copper. 141 .26o pounds of
lead, 1868 ounces Of silver and
1929 ounces Of gold. the Phelps
Dodge Corporation reported deficit
for the year ended December 81, 1919,
OF s1,2s5,65s. A s5l7,l30 deficit was
shown in 1918.
Including copper received from other
sources the company sold l4s,2s4,465
pounds at an average price of1713c per
pound, New York. Of that amount
137,923,09l pounds were sold in this
country and 11.3s1,374 pounds were
shipped abroad. This output was only
about two thirds that Of 1918 owing to
the curtailment forced by the small
foreign dema. for copper.
On the s45 ,oO0,0 900 capital stock the
company earned STA share. This corr
pares with s22.55 share in 1917.
Dividends disbursed during the year
aggregated $4,000 900, or Sc, 800 900 less
than was received in the proceed; AZ
year.

Throughout: the year.
There was practically no demand
for the metal during the first quarter,
and the price Of electrolytic gradually
receded until in March it reached the
low figure Of slightly less than IL cents

large tonnage was sold At increasing
prices until July and early August the
market price reached its maximum for
the year OF "a cents pound. Specula-
tive buying undoubtedly figured as an
important factor, as the domestic de-
mand ceased rather suddenly and did
not again enter the market actively
until November, and then at a much
reduced price. The sales in November
and December however. were heavy

quirements, but extending we'll into the
