GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

According to the comments being made
by metropolitan financial writer's, mar
ket observers, tipsters, etc, the General
Asphalt issues bid fair TO win the same
reputation they attained in this city
That Of being mystery" stocks.
Since the introduction to trading on
the big exchange in the later part OF
1920, the action of the shares has kept
the traders guessing, much the same as
they did here before the New York pool
managed to corral enough stock to take
IL away from the Philadelphia market.
The unwritten history of the General
Asphalt coup. which sent the common
stock up to 1G1 and the preferred to 241
in 101O, will some day furnish mighty
interesting reading matter.
The slick New York crowd thought
they were fooIing some Of the slow
moving Quakcrs, but he who laughs last
laughs best. limitations recently made
would intimate the big joke was on the
New York crowd. The exciting jam
borce was blessing in disguise to many
Philadelphians, who thought they were
landed for life with the preferred stock,
which they took in exchange for the
bonds of the dcfunct National asphalt
Co, which controlled the Asphalt Co.
of America. The holders of the bonds
were able to get out even at 200 for
the preferred, and all above that figure
was pure velvet.
Nobody ever satisfactorily accounted
for the hig hurrah two years ago, and
nobody seems able now to give an ac-
ceptable explanation for the current
mysterious pr0pelling force of the stocks
in the New York market. When the
rest of the market looks weak. the Gen
eral Asphalt shares moved forward, and
when the general list has appeared
strong the stock showed the effects
Of profit taking. From the lofty toT
