Believes Railroad Bottom Reached
Burlington Plan About Ready

Indications are that the new plan for
refunding the Great Northern North
ern Pacific joint per cent Burlington
collateral loan maturity due next July
will be submitted to the Interstate
Commerce Commission before the end
Of the current week. 1t is understood
that bankers are giving consideration
to program which would involve the
issuance of new 6ia per cent notes,
joint obligations of the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern, running for
not more than ten years, which would
be convertible into fifty-year bonds at
maturity, with a possible option Of
conversion prior to maturity. Obvious
ly such a plan would have its ad-
vantages since market conditions will
have changed greatly in ten years and
it would probably be possible to offer
fifty year bonds at that time carrying
a lower coupon rate.

The Dollar i'm Foreign Exchange

Weakness in Italian exchange stood
out as the most striking developm ent
in yesterdays foreign exchange mar
ket Most of the other Continental ex-
changes were firm, and sterling held
close ito the final quotations of last
week.
Italian lire. which climbed to 4.o9
cents at the end of last week, opened
off and declined to 3.85@ cents. Of
ferings were heavier. Reports Of a
possible Italian dollar loan f1otation in
this market failed of confirmation in
local banking circles.
Exchange on Berlin closed slightly
higher, sentiment being helped by the
news that the Germans had won by a
large majority in the plebiscite in
Upper Silesia.
Sterling exchange was comparative
ly little changed at S39i12 for sight
drafts French francs, which closed
at 696 cents on Friday, closed two
points higher, at eos for checks.
The Far Eastern exchanges were cX-
tremely strong. and the rate at Shang-
hal advanced from 63Es to sc cents for
checks. A 2-cent advance to 40 cents
was recorded in the rate on Hong Kong.

Lower Renewal Rate

Indicative of the more comfortable
money market position at this center
was the reduction yesterday in the re-
newal rate for call loans at the Stock
Exchange to 61s per cent. This was
the lowest renewal quotation since the
latter part of January, when 6 per
cent rate was effective for q short time.
Since then the rate has held persis-
tently at per cent. The. improved
reserve standing of the Federal Reserve
Bank, as disclosed in the statement Of
Saturday, showing a heavy reduction
in advances to mem ber banks, also re-
fected easier conditions. Call loans

Clearing Corporation Starts To-day


Beginning to-day the Stock Clearing
Corporation, organized year ago to
facilitate clearance of securities dealt
in on the Stock Exchange. will start
clearing stock market loans. The ma
chinery to handle the business has
been perfected after many months of
work on the part Of the representatives
of the clearing corporation, the Stock
Exchange and the banks. The new
methods will eliminate, it is expected,
much of the over-certification of checks
necessary under the present system
and besides will do away with the
carrying of large amounts of secur-
tiles through the streets of the 6nan-
cial district. The volume of business
that will pass through the corporation
daily is expected to average about
$25, 100000 in loans

 ChickaIoon Voting Box "The minority of the committee Ire fully convinced that said vote should be counted as cast. The maj ority of the committee counts the vote of one John Probst at the Chickaloon precinct for said Wicker sham on the ground that he was denied the right to vote at said box The evidence shows that said Probst appeared at the said voting and was informed that the poll lis was somewhere up the creey. He went back to his place of business and at o'clock on that day he was notified by one Manning that he could go and vote; that the polls were open. ms ne uecIllleu lO uO He had every opportunity to cast his ballot, but did not do so. The minority of your committee feel that the pretended effort on his part to vote was a mere subterfuge; that he had apmle opportunity to vote and he did not; and that vote should not be counted for said Wickersham."
 Forty Mile Question
 The minority reviews the evidence in connection with the changing of the polling places in the Forty Mile district and finds, that the facts show that the commissioner author ized to change election precincts did SO in order to economize in ex- penses for the Government that no voter was deprived of his right thereby: that his notice did reach the voters and was posted B days before the date of the election when the law provides that it should be posted 30 days prior to said cleo tion: that not single voter pro tested against the time of receiT-

 "The minority of this committee are fully convinced under the facts that this voting box should not be discarded by the majority of the committee" and holds that the vote cast should be counted for both SulZer and Wickersham.
