Central Leather's Inventories.

The move of full point in Central
Leather preferred yesterday in face of
an otherwise reactionary list Is under
stood to have been the result of infor-
nation received in Wall Street respect
ing tho company's inventory position.
Central Leather the tremendous high
priced inventories of which have been
responsible for the wiping out of its
huge surplus and the substitution in Its
place OF a profit and loss deficit, has just
about reached the edge OF the woods
Insofar as Inventories are concerned
according to information obtained yes
terday. One wire house. after receiving
advices from banking interests connected
with the company, put out the following
message on It's wires: I'VE learn from
responsible banking sources that Central
Leather's inventories are now written
down to a point where an optimistic
viewpoint of the company's future can
be taken

United States Rubber.

Although Wall Street generally did
not look for any announcement from the
United States Rubber Company's direct
ors following their meeting yesterday,
there was. nevertheless. disappointment
when it was learned that the meeting
after considering the company's six
months earnings statement, had ad-
journed without making public any Of
its figures. 1t was said, however, that
the statement probably would be pub
lished within the next two or three days.
Another Rubber matter which the finan-
cial district Is giving great deal of
attention is the selection by its directors
of successor to Col. Samuel p. Colt,
It's chairman, who died recently. 1t
could not be learned yesterday whether
any discussion of that matter was taken
up at the meeting. At the low mark OF
42 yesterday Rubber was off almost 3
points from its close on Monday and
was at the lowest point it has touched in
the last decade.

Moline Plan Near Completion.

The plan for the reorganization of the
Moline Plow Company is nearing COM
pletion and Il Is expected that 1t will be
In shape for adoption before September
/. when certain maturities have TO be
met. A representative of the Western
members of the protective committee
was In New York a few days ago with
a copy OF a draft OF a plan worked out
in the West. but so many amendments
and changes were made by the New
York members of the committee that he
was Obliged to return TO have the plan
rcdrafted. 1t Is anticipated. however
that the amended plan will be once
more in the hands of the New York
bankers before the end CT this week and
that from that time on definite progress
toward its completion will DC made.

Mexican News Well Received.

ANNOUNCEMENT in yesterdays morning
newspapers that the Mexican Govern
ment had indicated It's Willingness to
talk over its tax dlsagreements with the
American oil producers and that five Of
their number, comprising some of those
credited with being the biggest brains
of the oil industry. would leave to-mor-
row for a conference with Mexican Gov
eminent officials put Mexican oil stocks
up right from the start. Mexican Petro-
leum got above 95 for gain of nearly
points and In the subsequent reaction
lost less than half It's advance. Pan
American, too at Its high mark showed
a slight gain. as did Sinclair, Texas
Company and other oil issues. Wall
Street cannot but feel that the fact that
the five important oil men have seen III
to spend their time for the trip to
Mexico indicates that they have at least
some assurance that whatever they may
have to propose will receive careful con-
sideration and be well received.

n. Y. BOMB SUSPECT
HELD FOR INQUIRY
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BAYONNE, N. j.. May 19.-Giuseppe
de Filippo, arrested last night on sus-
picion that he was connected with the
Wall street explosion last September,
today was held for twenty-four hours
at the request of the Department of
Justice for further investigation.
Both the police and federal agents
maintained reticence, but it was re-
ported that in addition to the likeness
which the police assert he bears to a
composite picture of the driver of the
cart that is believed to have carried a
bomb into Wall street he had been
identified in lineup at police head
quarters by man whose name the po-
lice refused to divulge.
According to man present at the
lineup the man credited with having
made the Identification was shown ten
prisoners. He was said to have gone
directly up to de Filippo.
De Filippo told both the police and
agents of the Department of Justice
that he was engaged in the trucking
business in Bayonne on the day of the
explosion. He denied any knowledge
of the reputed bomb plot and declared
he never had been identified with any
radical organization.
The suspect has three deep scars
on his face and head. According to the
police he received these in knife duels.
De Filippo. who is married and has
two children, has been resident of
'employed at various times as a ship
builder and truckman. He now is in
business for himself, operating a small
truck.
