Market
BY STUART p. WEST
Copyright, 1sZ2.)

New York, Feb. THE dry
goods market continued dull and
spotty today. Some gray goods
were absorbed and there was spor-
adic trading in some of the mar
rover print cloth constructions.
Southern 381s inch 64x60's still
were obtainable in some quarters
at s cents and the SO inch 6Sx72's
were soft Sateens and wills were
weak but bag manufacturers con-
tinued to take some sheeting of
light weight Turkish and buck
toweling continued in fair demand.
Raw silk was firm in this market
with some price concessions for
cash reported in thrown silk. The
silk goods trade, however. was dull
with prices showing little change
or activity.

WALL STREET FEATURES

for such buying can be found in
current earnings of the road, for
the December report showed an OPP
Grating deficit Of some S425, 900. IL
must be at long range calculation
that is the basis of the operation.
One factor that will doubtless count
in favor OF Chicago & Northwest
ern as well az of the other lines in
that section IS the indicated short
age OF the winter wheat crop. for
this will inevitably mean a heavy
planting in the spring wheat states.
MARYLAND OIL.
Despite conflicting reports re-
garding cuts in the price OF Mid
Continent Crude and cuts and adj
vances in quotations for gasoline
the oil stocks did better in today's
market with Mexican Petroleum as
Stunning the leadership in a sharp
advance. Marland Oil was one Of
the junior oils which followed in
the wake of Mexican and had an
overnight jump of close to two
points. Marland gross production
is averaging slightly better than
10000 barrels daily and this rate
has been kept up for the last three
months.
INTERNATIONAL MOTOR TRUCK
International Motor Truck has
shown a disposition to keep pace
with the stocks of companies doing
a passenger car business rather
than tagging back with the purely
motor truck stocks. The reason for
this is that the International Motor
Truck company has met with sue
cess in adopting a gasoline driven
motor truck to be used in carrying
passengers on rails. More than a
year ago the company brought out
a truck which carried 81 passen-
gers and attained a speed of 80
miles an hour. This car is being
used on a few short lines roads in
the east and south. 1t is estimated
that the operating cost of one of
! these cars is about one-quarter of
the cost of operating the ordinary
branch line steam train

IeHER PRICE
STOCKS BOOM
IS KEEPING UP
nv STUART p. WEST.

lxsw York, Feb. t. There were
= sirns in the stock market today
any let-up in the campaign for
Ssher prices which began in the
~ week OF January. Many of the
,..aers of the list made new highs,
" onIy for the current movement
= for the entire recovery of the
"A six months. Similarly, after
ssderday's slight check, the ad-
,sree was resumed in sterling e3-
's.nge and extended to francs and
IL as we'll. The wheat market,
Inch for obvious reasons, is the
.srter of the utmost interest, con-
Is;rued vigorously with it's recovery.
mere was a definite connection
,tveen these three feature move
rents of the day. The significance
n the advance in sterling from
around S4.20 to about s4-35 within
80 than a month, is, first, that
Great Britain has been increasingly
nccessful in reducing her obliga-
=tions in the foreign trade. and, Sec
md that the economic recovery of
Furope since the first of the year
tss become more positively defined.
AS the grain trade and the Sc
Efurities market read this movement
n points clearly to a large Euro
sesn demand for American staples
md merchandise and to a conse-
ouent gradual revival in our ex-
ports.
q The favorable reaction upon the
entire business situation of the
present advance in grain prices is
ad course, plain enough. The only
qualification of such a reaction
would be the necessity of pressing
the return of more profitable prices
az wheat. That is what happened
in the case of cotton last year. AS
matters stand now, while the in
creased attractiveness of the Amer
lean market to foreign buyers since
their currencies have assumed 9
greater dollar value has been the
schief constructive factor, the grain
trade has also been powerfully in
sauenced by the very poor start o.
the 1922 fall-sown crops and the in
dications that the abandoned farms
will be unusually large.

Wall Street, New York, Feb. T.
The curb market moved today with
a great deal OF irregularity. Some
Of the recent favorites felt the eff
!. feet of realizing sales and eased of,
while there was fresh buying at ad-
.yancing prices in other directions.
Lincoln Motor was again conspicu-
ously weak. 1t had closed last
night at 81 and promptly broke
through the level this morning,
continuing there all the rest OF the
day. The selling, the same as yes
terday; was inspired by uneasiness
as to possible reorganization
which might involve levy upon
present stock holders, or what
would amount to the same thing.
Inter Continental Rubber was like
wise influenced by profit taking.
Supporting orders appeared to have
been withdrawn and within an hour
the stock lost the greater part OF
its recent gain. Philip-Morris was
Slightly lower early in the day, but
rallied later. Among the strong
stocks were Kirby Petroleum,
which reached a new high in anti
cipatlon that the company Bell
well number 1 would be brought in
slater in the week. Red Bank Oil
l&was one of the leaders among the
low priced oils. More interest was
taken in the Standard Oil group,
and despite the price cuts in gaso-
line, there were comparative sharp
advances in Prairie Oil and Gas and
: Prairie Pipe Line. Southern Pc
lroleum was firm.
ga Tobacco Products exports was in
good demand and made a new high
for the year. There was less activi-
~ in the mining stocks. Magma
Stopper, however, was well sup
ported and Nispissing went higher.

NORTHRRN PACIFIC,

Northern Pacifc's preliminary
report for 1921 showed a balance
after fixed charges and taxes of
$22,o65,3s the equivalent Of $3.50
a share OF the stock This result,
however, was only made possible
by the inclusion of the s12,451, $50
representing Northern Pacific's
share of the special Burlington
dividend Without this there would
have been a deficit of over $1,000
cent dividend. The proper gauge
of Northern Pacifc's ability to
maintain its full dividend is to be
found. not in the annual statement,
but in comparison of the monthly
reports. For the first half of 1921
the road had an operating deficit OF
$685. 66. Then came the lower
wage scales. and this was reflected
Immediately in a net operating in
come for July of $975 900. Follow
ing this was jump to $2.455 900 in
September and to $3,893. 900 in Oc-
tober. In November, in common
with nearly every road, Northern
Pacific suffered considerable
slump. but still there was left ST.
AT 900. which is just about a
months requirement for dividends.
The December net of little over
81. 900 900 showed earnings again on
the upward trend. The inference
certainly is that if Northern Pacific
could great deal more than cover
its per cent in more than half of
1921, which was certainly not a
fiourishing period. it ought to be
reasonably sure OF at least doing
as we'll in 1922.
