GOSSIP OF h
THE STREET

A big trader in one OF the uptown
commission houses q few days ago,
when the Hill shares were on the
creased toboggan slide, stood by the
ticker and handed over a substantial
buying order for every half point de-
cline in break Of four points. Yester-
day morning he put in a selling order
for the entire block and cashed in a
good sized profit. Several other traders
who had knowledge Of the venture
asked yesterday what prompted the e.. {.
cursion with so many odds against
him. Replying to these inquiries he
said: Just figured out a little mental
bet In the first place I did not be-
ljeve there was the slightest possibility
OF the dividend being reduced. This
idea became quite fixed in my mind.
becatse ] figured IL out bankers had
not succeeded in distributing the recent
$3.50, 100000 Burlington bond issue,
and their job would have been doubly
dificult IL the dividend had been re-
duced to D per cent. as so many in
Wall street thought II would be a few
days ago. OF course. am only a
piker with some Of the big traders in
New York. but I had a big hunch,
even II the directors desired to reduce
the dividend. which perhaps they should
have done, the big bankers would not
permit them to do 80. It seems to
me to make the Great Northern pre-
ferred dividend equally safe. All can
say when you get strong hunch play
it strong despite the fact all odds are
seemingly against you"

Making EMPLOYEES Partners

Quite number of prominent in

able to make employees partners and
get them interested in the company's 8
operations sufficiently to buy stock.
In a number Of instances. il has not
only served to produce higher degree
OF efficiency. but hus also proven a
wonderful panacea for labor misunder.

pany. It was reported yesterday the
directors of the company had arranged
plan whereby employees for three or
more years may subscribe to the COM
pany's stock. Those eligible may buy
the stock Mt $50 share, which is not
greater than the cost to the company,
by reason Of the fact that the manage
ment was able to purchase substan :
tial block in the market. and which
will be used for that purpose.
Payments, it is understood, are to be
made on weekly instalments, basis OF

Our Growing Trade With Germany

The recent action Of Congress with
reference to peace with Germany lends
interest to a statement by the National
City Banl>of New York on the growth
of our trade with that country In the
fiscal year 1921. which ends with the
current month, as compared with
earlier years. The total trade with
Germany. says the banks statement. in
the fiscal year 1927 will aggregate
about $3.50, 900 900, against $24I 900. =
900 in the fiscal year 1920, and S10.-
000, 900 in the fiscal year 1919. The
total exports to Germany in the fscal
year 1927 will aggregate about S37O.-
000, 900. against S202, 900, 900 in 1920 !:
SO. 900 900 IN 1910 and nothing in 1918.
The imports from Germany in the cur
rent fscal year will stand at approx
mately 100000, 900. against S45 900. :
900 in 1920. and less than 81 .00O, 900
in 1919 This total of our trade with
Germany in 1920, S45O. .OOO. 900. will
be but little below the high record pre-
war year, 1914. when the imports from
and exports to Germany aggregated
$685., 900 900, though it should be re-
membered that the 1921 figures are
those Of present values Of the articles

Davis Denies Allegation That u. s. Has Consulted Cuba In Controversy With the
 Western Union
nr A.socinted Press

Washington, January 10.-Charges that the British government exercises surveillance over American cable busi- ness, official as well as private, pass ing through the British Isles. and that the state department had extended it's controversy with the Western Union Telegraph and Cable company to bring in the Cuban government, came up to- day before Senate committee consid : ering cable legislation.
 Norman H. Davis, acting Secretary of State. and Newcomb Carlton. president of the Western Union, conducted a cross-table argument over the Cuban allegation, when MT. Davis f1atly de- nied it. Chairman Kellogg ended the hearing by questioning MT. Carlton as to the English practices. Clarence H. Mackay, head of the Postal Telegraph Cable companys another witness, told the committee that English secret serv- ice authorities were obtaining copies Of all cable messages.
 MT Carlton several times expressed reluctance te discuss the subject or English surveillance, because it would make trouble" but at last yielded.

FATE OF MUSCLE
 SHOALS PROJECT
 IS DECIDED TODAY
Underwood Says If Senate Votes to Recommit It Means Measure Will Be
 ChIoroformed
By HUGH w. ROBERTS Washington Bureau The Age Herald
 500 Davidson Bujldjns

Washington, January 10.--(Special)- Following his notable speech in the Senate this afternoon against recom- hitting the air nitrate corpor a ion bill Senator Underwood of Alabama declared in a statement that if the bill be re- committed tomorrow, it will be ch1oro- formed, whereas if recommittal is de- feated, the bill will be passed
 He was doubtful as to the attitude of the Senate. The bill involves the fate Of the gigantic nitrate plants at Mus cle Shoals, in north Alabama.
 Senator Underwood's effort this a r. noon was directed to the folly of send ing the measure back to committee, in asmuch as the Senate was capable of passing jurdgment on various pending amendments without further advice from committeeman.
 "It is very simple proposition, that which is involved in the bill" he said 'It is whether we will give the govern ment an opportunity to test the practi- cability of an operation of magnificent plants, capable of sustaining the coun- try in times of war and peace, or whether we shall junk such plants and suffer the loss of our entire invest ment."
 Regarding the contention of Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin and others, that private corporations and not the people would benefit from the completion of the projects, Senator Underwood said T would not listen to private interests attempting to secure advantages at the cost of the government, and I would not listen to private interests endeavoring to prevent completion of these enter prises for their own selfish benefits. Such interests are knocking at the door of this chamber today.
 They would strike at the life of the nation by preventing a preparation for possible war, and by checkmating the farmers of the country in their effort to produce abundantly at minimum of cost"
 Senator Underwood read telegram from Thomas w. Martin of Birming ham, president of the Alabama Power company, in answer to the contention of Senator Lenroot that the Alabama Pow : CT company was interested in Muscle Shoals. MT. Martin stated the fact that his companysis is not interested in Mus cle Shoals. save as citizens are inter- ested, and referred to the fact that as an aid to the government in preparing for the war against Germany his com pany has given to the government it's rights to the banks of the Tennessee river. valued at $50O,000.
 Though this statement was conclu- sive. 1t did not better Senator Lenroot from intimating subsequently conten- tions to the original effect.
