chicago and Eastern Illinois.

The report that the reorganization
plan Of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois
Railroad would be declared operative on
November 15 was denied yesterday by
Kuhn, Loeb & Co. managers of It's re-
organization. No decision as to the date
on which the plan will be made effective
will be reached. It was said, until con-
ditions affecting the affairs of the road
have undergone Improvement. 1t Is
understood that the outlook for a better
ment In the company's net earnings Is
good. In the first six months of this
year the road had an operating deficit
Of about $3sO,000. but its net operating
income in July was s275.000 and that of
August approximately 100000. It's
loadings in September ran ahead Of that
Of August with promise that its net
earnings last month would equal or
exceed those Of the preceding month.

Money Stiffer.

Call money after renewing at per
cent yesterday. advanced to 6 per cent.
bid at the closing In the New York
Stock Exchange and similar rates pre-
vailed over the counter. The time money
market was purely nominal. The stiff
ness in call money was due in part to
preparation for the withdrawal to-day
Of $4,000, 900 Of United States deposits.
Another explanation lies in the slow
work I'm disposing OF certain issues
which were undigested. the syndicate
managers being relieved OF liability
but the dealers carrying considerable
amounts of such issues as Argcntines
and Federal car trusts. A still fur
ther reason for the scarcity of call
funds is the Investment of out Of town
funds in acceptances. which are BOOM
ing.

new Acceptance Rates.

Two houses. Bernhard Schol1e & Co.
and the First National Corporation.
changed yesterday their selling rate for
acceptances up to four months to a dis
count of AZ per cent. They and the
National City Company have been buy
Ing them, for two or three days at ~
per cent To-day's selling rate for all
houses Is expected to he ~ per cent,
contrasted with its previous high rate
Of ~ per ceht. On account of slow
business there has been growing
scarcity Of prime bankers acceptances
and at the same time the demand for
them is showing constant growth. Bid
ding for acceptances has caused the
advance in rates to a point u of per
cent. smaller in discount than the s
per cent. rate Of the Federal Reserve
Bank. An excellent business in ac-
ceptances was reported yesterday, al
though the demand for them Is not
satisfied.

After the first fifteen minutes Of yes

was very brisk and the general trend of
prices higher, the market steadied down
into a very dull and quiet affair and
during the remainder of the day dis
played more or less irregularity. The
net changes among the active list were
more numerous on the down side, but
with one or two exceptions they were
fractional. An accumulation of week
end buying orders gave the market every
evidence of exceptional strength at Its
opening. and, as in the closing days of

TOPICS OF WALL STREET.
steel Ton mage Gain.

Although the Improvement in the steel
tonnage figures was not unexpected. 1.
save added confidence to those in Wall
Street who have been protesting that
general business has turned the corner
and that the market Is bound to reflect
the change. The gain in untitled orders
was small, to be sure. but Wall Street
would not overlook the significant fact
that It is an actual increase. and the
first one In fourteen months. Business
in the industry has slowed down a bit
90 far in October. and there are those
who believe that next months tonnage
figures once more win show drop. but
there are still nearly three weeks Of
this month to go. and steel men declare
that It II very unwise to base predic-
tions on what the months operations
will show on what has developed so far.

 '"The fishing industry seems to be hard hit for the coming year. and mining, owing to the high cost of producing, etc. is also taking a lit tie setback" said Judge Brown If the gold bonus bill would pass, min ing would take a stride in Alaska heretofore unheard of.
 North of Anchorage railroad work and development of several mining claims makes that district especially attractive and promises good for this year"
