Nav Pool Cuban Sugar Crop

Reports current in the local sugar
trade yesterday, based upon unofficial
cables received from Havana, were to
the effect that President Menocal Of
Cuba Is planning to appoint commit
tee Of seven to handle the marketing
Of the 1920-1921 sugar crop The
names mentioned for the committee
included R. B. Hawley, president Of
the Cuban-American Sugar Company,
Manuel Rionda, of the Cuba Cane
Sugar Corporation, and W. A. Simon
son, executive manager of the National
Citv Bank. While no further definite
information was available, it was ru-
mored that the plans Of the Cuban gov
ernment involved the establishing Of
an embargo for time upon the export
of raw sugar from Cuba in an effort to
stabilize prices at higher levels,
A Short Crop
"If 1t is true" said J. T. Monahan,
vlce-president of the Bank of Cuba in
New York, in discussing the reports,
Chat President Menocal has signed
decree appointing sales commission
to handle the crop Of 1920 and 1921
until an advantageous price for Cuban
sugar can be obtained, | consider this
very important move 1or Lne RoOu
of Cuba. I have had no direct COM
munication from our Havana bank or
other parties concerning such move,
but as the present price Of sugar is so
low, and if confidence is gradually
being restored in this country to the
extent that merchants in all lines are
beginning to look ahead and purchase
for their needs, it seems to me that
the withholding of the Cuban crop will
become an important factor In bringing
about an early advance in the price. It
has recently been stated by some sugar
authorities that the crop will reach
about two and a half million tons, from
present sindications, instead Of about
four million tons as was anticipated
last fall. This Is due to the lack of
financial arrangements for grinding
and to the fact that as the cost Of liv-
ing has barely deprecated in Cuba and
the cost of grinding is high, to say
nothing of advances made to colonos
on the basis of much higher price
Of sugar, the cost Of manufacturing
sugar throughout the island would,
believe, be higher than its present sell
ing price"

The Midyale Price Cut

The Tribune's announcement that the
Mldvale, Steel and Ordnance Company
was underselling the Steel Corporation
to attract new business was the sub
lect Of much interested discussion in
the financial district and local steel
circles Yesterday. Although other in
dependents with Offices in New York
were unwilling to admit openly that
they were adopting a similar policy
1T was generally understood they have
not been satisfied with the way orders
have been coming in since the redua-
tion was made to the Industrial Bosrd
level; MidvaIe, it was reported, is now y
on on ering plates, shapes and bars at
S2.25 hundred pounds, or from 81 to So
q snort ton before the Industrial Board
level maintained by the Steel Corpora
tion. The Industrial Boards Quota
tlon Tor plates was $2.o5 a hundred
ggounds, shapes $2.45 and bars $2.S5.

Stocks Rally
Quickly ON
Easier Money
Reduction in Call Loan
Rate Causes Covering
and Sharp Upturn in
Prices Late in the Day

Stocks turned with the money market
yesterday. After the fore part of the
exchange session had been given over
to dull and listless performance, signs
of the first relaxation in money condi-
tions at this center in more than q
week, as reflected in reduction in the
call loan rate from s to Z por cent.
gave the professional bear traders the
hint to cover portion of their short
commitments. The result was spirited
rally in prices in the closing hour when
the biggest part of the days business
was transacted.
The early market was intensely dull.
with q break in the sugar shares, led
by American Sugar supplying about tbs
only development to break the monot-
ony Efforts of the professional traders
dominating the market to bring about
q reaction In other parts of the list
brought meager results In fact it was
found that practically no stock at all
hcould be dislodged. With this condition
rates in the early AFTERNOON caused
nervousness on the part of the bears
and when they began to cover they
found they could only do so by bidding
prices up on themselves. The desire
of the shorts to cover was the main
spring of the rally in the closing hour
when the general run of stocks showed
net gains Of fraction to full point,
Some Of the more speculative issues
like International Paper, General AS
phalt and Baldwin Locomotives regis
tered even larger advances. Steel shares
were prominent in the upward move
ment, the advance here being accom-
panied by reports of impending reduc~
tions In steel prices by several COM
panies in an effort TO stimulate buying.
Railway stocks were conspicuousiy
strong on the expectation that the
Winslow bill, providing for payment to
fthe roads of compensation for the final
six months of Federal control, would
be passed by Congress. Favorable
action, delayed the day before, was
taken by the House on the bill after
the close of the market. The advance
/ in the average price of twenty standard
railway stocks Yesterday amounted to
more than point :,
! Movements toward recovery occurred
/ also in the foreign exchanges and IN
/ the commodity markets. Sterling ex-
3 change. lately erratic, following the
/ swift ascent in January, leaped into
prominence with an advance or b cenrs
/ in the mound, getting close to the high
| level reached on the previous recovery
The other exchanges improved In sym
pathy with sterling, In the commodity
markets wheat, corn ard cotton ad-
vanced vigorously.
While I per cent was the low rate
for call money on the Exchange yester-
day. loans were reported as having been
made in the outside market at 6 per
cent. Tomorrow the government VIII
withdraw s22,60o,oO from local banks
! which NAV tend to tighten the local
money position again temporarily.

Copper Financing Plan

II was expected that details Of the
plan by which leading copper produ-
GERS propose to finance the sale of 4oO,-
100000 pounds of copper to foreign
consumers would be announced yester-
day but certain matters pertaining to
the guaranty Of the debehtures to be
issued against the metal delayed the
announcement, which will probably be
made to-day. The debentures, which
will be underwritten by a syndicate
headed by the National City Company,
viii! run from one to four years. The
amount of the issue, it was understood
yesterday, has been definitely fixed at
S40,000,000. The Guaranty Trust Com
pany will act as trustee for the bonds.
Since it became known that a plan
was being formulated to take from the
market the greater part Of the Amer
lean surplus copper domestic buyers
nave shown nov more of disposition to
buy. This has resulted in slightly
frner price tone.

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

A noticeable Improvement IN rates @
for sterling and Continental cuIreneies
Yesterday was believed to reflect an
opinion that favorable results might be
expected over renewed conferences rs on on
the German reparations plan. Tn There re-
regard to European debts to the United
States gave a more favorable impress
sion of the situation:
In other financial centers changes
ware unimportant, except In Scandi-
navian countries where further reces-
sions were made. Sterling advanced to
$388A, net gain Of Az cents, while
French and Belgian francs, lire ond
marks were slightly higher.
Canadian exchange improved slightly,
the premium on New York funds IN
Montreal dropping from $135 to $1,000
to $3.50 and discount on Montreal funds
here dropped from about $119 to $115
per $1,000

Cerro de Pasco Dividend Cut

Cerro de Pasco shares presented the
rather interesting anomaly yesterday
of advancing following the announce
ment that the company's dividend rate
had been cut from 81 share to so
cents. This may have been due to re-
preston in the copper industry. The
company has paid dividends at the an
nual rate of 81 a share since the be-
ginning Of 1919. In 1918 So a share
was paid and in 1917 $5.75 share.

Nervous Shorts

An extremely small floating suppIv
OF stocks was an important factor in
causing the professional shorts TO
rush to cover in the closing hour yes
terday Early sallies against the list
were not very productive of results
excepting in the case of the sugar
sshares, and when money rates relaxed
IN the early afternoon the bears de-
etaed 81 they had better cover in a part
OF thelr commitments. 1t was their
buying which closed the market at
substantial advance.
