Walter Gabrll, president ot the

the current issue Of the "Northern Cen =
tral Advocate, issued by that institu-
ton and devoted to the business inter-
ests of North Philadelphia, says:
Frozen Credits and "Liquidity''
are somewhat unusual terms in the mind
of the layman. They are words however.
which mean much to the banker. The
ability of bank to liquidate its as
sets without loss or delay is of prime
importance, and during the troublous
years just passed, bankers have prob
ably given more thought to what these
words represent than to any other one
factor entering into their business.

Street gossip has it that the alleged
recently formed pool in Z. II. L. is
greatly disgruntled in the failure of
the carefully worked out campaign to
carry through. It is understood they
ran against an unlocked for snag a
fortnight ago when the stock was raised
above 10, in liberal offerings Of the
stock by brokers who are supposed to
act directly or indirectly for certain
banking interests. This source of sup
ply was either overlooked or was not
taken into consideration. The pool. it
Is stated. managed to accumulate ap-
proximateIy 40, 900 shares of stock Gov
ering long period between ii and 16
a share II was believed this had prac-
tically cleaned UP all the floating sup
ply of stock. and it was figured the quo
tation could safely be carried 70 %
without danger OF releasing any consid-
cradle amount of stock.
To make the situation more discon-
certing. members Of the pool have been
unable TO ascertain the identity of the
sellers or the real source of the sup
ply, az it was known the personal hold
ings of the banking interests were
liquidated when the stock was selling
at much higher figures. In oil events,
it has meant a pastponement of further
pool demonstrations. and in the mean
time some of the tail -enders have been
letting 60 and the stock yesterday was
over points under the recent top.

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

What many are pleased to call a
cold water banquet il appears, was
given few nights ago ut one of the
prominent clubs by the head Of big
business concern. According to the
story, business associates of the concern
while gathered arousd the festive board,
one after another eulogized the firm
for their remarkably successful business
career, and In glowing terms. as every
grateful guest should do, told OF their
great esteem and affection business wise
and socially for the head of the enter :
prise. The host in response 10 their
unstinted praise said he was highly
hnttered by such complimentary re-
marks, that it made him feel he had not
lived in vain, neither had his business
efforts been in vain. He told them
he was proud of such staunch friend
ship and confidence and then in con-
clusion said
Gentlemen, | will now tell you the
reason you are brought together here
tonight and why this dinner was given.
You are our principal creditors, con-
ditions over which we positively had no
control make IL compulsory for US to
come to you tonight and request you

then proceeded to make q clean breast
Of the affairs of the company, conceal
ing not the slightest detail. While the
totally unexpected announcement Of the
financial distress Of the concern was like
throwing a bucket of cold water over
the nssemblage, the frankness Of the
statements won the day. and before the
little party broke up the majority of the
largest creditors had signed papers max =

British, Dutch and French oil men
have approached several of the larger

attractive price, but AS it is strictly a

Note Supply Running Short

For some time past, there has been
a disposition TO purchase short term
securities. particularly on the part of
institutions, insurance companies, etc. =.
and at tines there have not been enough
of this class of issues to go around.
Prices have advanced sharply and the
manner in which the gains have been
maintained has been the subject of
favorable comment in the trade. There
has been both an absence of pressure
and a demand for notes which in its
entirety has brought about considerable
bouyancy in the trade. This has applied
not only to certain issues or groups of
notes but has been quite general
throughout the entire list.
With the easier money rate yuliug
there naturally has developed better
demand for short term paper than
could have been expected or hoped Tor
during the last year or so when both
call and time funds held at unusually
high interest rates. Recently there has
been more urgent demand for accept
ance bills, with the result that the dis
count rate has been brought down from
around per cent to AZ a 4lI per cent.
There have been rumblingS in the air
for several days past that the Federal
Reserve discount rate will again be re-
duced within a week or 80 and this in
turn will mean a further revision of
rates for acceptance bills.

HAVANA. April 2o.-Appreciation Of
the attitude of the United States gov
ernment in urging that there be no
obstructive tactics to prevent the in
auguration of DR.. Alfredo Zayas as
President of Cuba is contained in a
proclamation issued tonight to the
people by President Menocal.
Characterizing the American govern
ment as an elevated and just tri-
bunal," President Menocal asserts that
it has protected the orderly develop
ment of republican government in
Cuba by regarding proposals for inter
vention, new elections and a provi-
sional government as variations of
legal order.
Following the announcement of the
American governments stand against
the appeals by General Jose Miguel
Gomez for notification Of the Novem-
her elections and the retirement of
General Gomez to private life, Liberal
leaders announce that the party will
permit the attendance of a quorum in
Congress and the proclamation of DR..

s3o,0oo,000. 1t was increased to
s48,0oo.oO0 and later to 100000, 600.
Alfred Skitt, president of the Man
haitian company, yesterday declared
that "the elevated lines cannot be
handed back to the Manhattan company
without it's consent"
Blames Deficit to Extensions
An entirely erroneous impression is
created by some statements in the
newspapers to the effect that the Man
haitian lease has been q milestone
around the neck OF the Interborough. D
said Mr.. Skitt. ''
The lease was made in 1903. For
fourteen years and until under compul-
SION from the city the Interborough
sparsely settled districts in Bron~
and Queens boroughs at an expense Of
many millions Of dollars the Manhattan
tease was an exceedingly profitable
venture for the Interborough.
Inc yearly operating income of the
manhattan lines, as leased, from 1909
TO lsl' shows net profit to the Inter
borough over and above all interest
and dividends on Manhattan bonds and
stocks of s18,7O4, 900.
>, Inc present deficit occurs becau..
ooA ouIu lNCluoeS IN its Man.
hattan division accounts the whole
load of the extension lines in the
Bronx and Queens boroughs not owned
Dy the Manhattan and not included in
the Manhattan lease.
Sharpest Possible Competition
"Furthermore, the Interborough it.
sen IN 1913 instituted the sharpest
possible competition with the Manhat-
tan elevated lines by the opening Of
the Lexington Avenue subway. This
was bound to reduce temporarily the
elevated revenues, but, as in every
such instance in the history of the
city, the city's growth is overtaking
the result of this competition and f
VIII ultimately disappear.
~, The traffic on important parts of
the subway has reached the points If
saturation, whereas the elevated. IN
which the overflow traffic is now going
on, mas still leeway.
Besides all this, of course. a con-
tract is contract and the elevated
