Bosch Magnetic Financing

Two rrmors were afioat yesterday
concerning the affairs Of the American
Bosch Magnetic Company. One con-
cerned its dividend prospects, while the
other was to the effect that Mew fnanc-
ing will soon be undertaken in the form
of an issue Of s2,0o0,000 noae. Bank
ers familiar with the company's affairs
said that if a note issue was determined
upon 1t would probably be for smaller
amount. AS to dividend prospects, It
was said that the company's business
has fallen off substantially. due to the
slowing up OF the demand for motor
cars, and that this may neeessitate the
omission Of the next quarterly dividend.
At the last meeting the rate was cut
from $3.50 share to $125 quarterly.

Mexican Petroleum

The salt water bugaboo was again
used as an argument yesterday to de-
press the Doheny issues. Reports
from Mexico City told of further in
dications of water in several producing
wells. These were to the liking of the
bear operators and they sold Mexican
Petroleum heavily throughout the day.
One trader alone was credited with
having sold more than 10000 shares
short, and this with selling from other
sources caused a net loss for the mar
ket session of 37 points, the last sale
being at 1477s. This was decline of
nearly 8 points from the recent high.
