BIG SPECULATION
IN GERMAN MARKS
Billions Bought and Sold
Millions Vanish.

and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-E'rom thirty to
sixty billions marks have been bought and
sold in speculation in Germany since
exchange rates began to wayer. Be
tween six hundred million and eight
hundred million marks have disappeared
entirely from circulation.
Those estimates of the vast speculation
in German currency that has been going
on since the marks value began to
shrink were brought to American by
Karl Gergeman, former under secretary
Of finance in the present German govern
ment, and German financial representa-
tive at the meetings of the Preparations
Commission. Mr.. Bergman is in this
country on business. He has given his
many in talks he has had with Secre-
tnry Hoover. Secretary Hughes and Sec
rotary Mellon.
Mr.. Bergman said the discovery of the
large sum of gold marks that were out
Of circulation came when the German
government began its collection of gold
marks for indemnities. He expressed
the opinion the missing currency either
was deposited in foreign banks or had
been exchanged for foreign money and
was being boarded.
Mr.. Bergman, now n private citizen
and an influential banker in Germany,
pictured his country as being il a fever
ish state of production. Prices are not
keeping pace with the drop in exchange,
he stated. He predicted that unless the
imitation of currency in Germany
stopped soon. there would be n terrific
crash.-Copyright, 1921, by Public Led
ger Company.

The Lond market has been for some
time an unmistakable indicator Of COM
ing events. Bond dealers have disposed
of new issues with surprising ease, and
the market here has been the scene of
increasing activity with buying orders
for every group.
Government issues. railroad issues, in
dustrialS issues and the bonds of for
eign governments have been taken an
in increasing quantities. This shows a
financial condition that must in time
prove of great value to industry and to
the stock market.
As soon as bonds have reached a level
where the yield becomes less attractive
investors will turn to stocks and then
stocks will be as eagerly bought an bonds
are now.
Tie general banking situation could
not he better. Reserves are piIing up.
Colds stocks are increasing, rates are de
clining: the next step will be encourage
ment to industry to use all this liquid
capital and proceed with plans for ex-
pansion and new development.
1t is well known that you could not
have such remarkable improvement in
banking conditions unless we had thor
ough liquidation in all branches OF Lusi-
ness.
The one is q natural result of the other
for the next period Of business activity.
We have confidence in the future.
We anticipate steady improvement and
in time a material increase in the de-
mand for stocks and an ultimately higher
level of values, and we therefore con-
tinue TO suggest the purchase of stocks
on every reaction.

Wheat--Priyatc cables from BuenOs
Aires expressing fear of frosts and mod
crate export sales of Manitobas to the
continent, were responsible for the ac
ton of wheat although it was more a
natural reaction from the extreme de-
cline than any important change in the
underlying situation, Export sales of
Mantobas yesterday were estimated at
100000 bushels to a million and today's
business 100000 to 100000 bushels. New
York estimates sales already made for
shipment within the next three months
all the way from very small up to 90
100000 bushels. New business is con-
fined to the continent. English markets

citic coast wheat for resale because Ca
madam and Argentine offerings are
cheaper. Receipts in the Northwest are
falling off slightly and the holding at
titude of the country is again being re-
ferred TO. Several Minneapolis mills
have closed down and more viii do so
unless -four trade improves. December
wheat in this market is 10 81 under
the May which does not reflect any i'm.
portant cash demand. The course of
prices remains dependent upon the ac-
tivity of the foreign buyer.
Corn and Uats~-The strength in wheat
has influenced corn but llc buying
power came largely from yesterdays
sellers. there being no revived of general
interest or Improvement ia the cash

BOSTON, Nov. 4--Prices onwooI went
up during the last week. Quarter blood
territory advanced from 40 to u cents
per pound in the clean and three eighths
blood from 30 to 80 cents. The heavy
wool movement has slackened a little, the
strike scare being over. but the mills are
as busy as ever, especially the knitting
yarn mills.
Fine and fine medium stable wool
brings prices which mean 60 to 50 cents
clean. Strictly fine stable is lacking.
Sales of good fine and fine medium
staple Montana and similar wool have
been made at So cents clean. The lack
of fine staple has caused buyers to turn
their attention strongly to clothing and
French combing woods. For the former,
60 to Is cents clean appears to be about
the market and for the latter, 20 cents.
Half blood staple is quoted about 20
cents, but is not plentiful. Secured
territory continues to be scarce. The
position of Ohio and similar fIeeces re-
mains very strong. Further sales are
noted Of Ohio fine unwashed delRine at
80 cents.
Fine unwashed clothing wool is quot
able at 20 to 80 cents; half blood comb
ing, 81 to 31l2 cents; three Fights blood
