TO TELL CABINET.

The Cabinet is expected to be in
formed soon Of the conclusions reach
ed regarding the economic situation
at the recent conference Of represen-
tative American bankers with Presi-
dent Harding.
This information, II was believed.
will be relayed by the President and
Secretaries Hoover and Mellon, who
participated in the meeting.
An impression has ben prevalent
here that the banking groups disap-
prove of one proposal before the Cab
met which would establish a policy
of requiring all money raised by for
eign loans in the United States to be
devoted to purchase of American COM
modities for export for paying off
foreign debts owed here.
Whether this is true has not been
learned and the chief reason for the
impression appears to be the general
belief that American bankers prefer
to float loans for foreign clients with

A PROFESSIONAL MARKET.

NEW YORK. May 2s.-Traders of
long experience. and many members
OF the Stock Exchange say they can
not remember a more professional
market than that now existing.
The greater number Of transactions
are simply one trader selling to an
other.
Public interest and participation
are almost totally absent. In many
instances the specialists books are
said to be empty aud this accounts to
q great extent for the sharp novel
ments which develop so often.
While there were good signs Of
public buying toward the close of the
last advance the subsequent sharp
break caused material losses.
There are many stocks on the bar
gain counter. but there are also many
bonds, which. added to their invest
ment possibilities have also promising
speculative features.
