Industrial Alcohol Higher.

United States Industrial Alcohol was
one of the strong spots in yesterdays
irregular market on the official state
ment that the company's sales in Octo-
Der were the largest of any month In
its history. Rumors rNat Standard Oil
unit had acquired control of the COM
pany we're denied yesterday at it's Of
fices. The report probably arose from
the generally known>fact that stock con-
troll Of Industrial Alcohol has rested for
some time In the hands of individuals
Identified with the Rockefellers and
their associates. and from the further
fact. which became known yesterday,
that the company virtually has closed
contracts with four Standard Oil COM
panies, whereby the latter will be sup
piled with It's motor fuel products Ex-
periments have proved that this product
is an excellent and cheap substitute for
benzol for use In combination with gaso-
line In internal combustion engines.

MADE NO CHARGE OF
DOHERTY-PIERCE PLOT
Court Records Reveal Error in
Report of Testimony.

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 17.-Examina-
ton of the court record to-day of the
testimony Wednesday of c. W. Randall,
vice-president of the Pierce Oil Corpora
ton, in suit of preferred stock holders
seeking to annul the recent election of
directors of the company, revealed that
he did not testify to the existence of
secret agreement between Fl. L. Doherty
OF New York and Fl. c. Pierce. president
of the Pierce company. as reported in
these dispatches Wednesday, Mr.. Ran
dali, further. II was shown, did not tes-
tify. as stated in the dispatches. that 1t
was the purpose of any such agreement
20 defraud the stockholders and obtain
control OF the company. Mr.. Randall
testified, and reiterated In a statement
last night. that he had no knowledge Of
any such agreement.
The court record shows that Mr.. Ran
dali. on cross-examination conducted by
Samuel Untermyer. counsel for the pre-
ferred stock holders. testified that he
knew the general terms Of an agreement
entered into between Mr.. Doherty and
the corporation. This agreement, dated
October 2. 1922. a purported copy OF
which was produced in court, was pro-
d'uced by Mr.. Pierce, Mr.. Randall testi-
fled, at a conference at which five of the
eight members of the board OF directors
were present. he teStified that Mr..
Doherty was elected a director OF the
corporation and participated in the con-
ference of directors on that date.
Testifying further, Mr. Randall said
that. although he was not obligated to
do SO. Mr.. Doherty already had loaned
the corporation more than 100000 and
on October . last gave the corporation
the benefit of his credit TO the limit OF
$1,000. 900. Mr.. Randall, the record
showed. did not testify. as reported. that
under a secret agreement between Mr..
Pierce and Mr. Doherty the latter was
20 put up 100000 and TO have the
privilege OF converting into preferred
stock whatever debts he chose to permit.
Further. he did not claim, as reported,
that IL was the purpose of any such
plan to give Mr.. Doherty opportunity
under the conversion privilege OF exer-
clsing virtually an option on one-half OF
tho voting power and thus practically
controlling the corporation. Mr.. Ran
dall's denial of any knowledge OF
secret agreement between Mr. Doherty
and Mr. Pierce was brought out by close
questioning of the witness by Mr. Inter
myer regarding secret agreement
for an alleged stock jobbing scheme

November. 1921. Payment of the regu-
lar dividend and the four quarterly back
dividends will be made on December

vember 20. The action OF the directors

sumed consists OF 10000 shares OF par
value OF 500 each.
Directors of the Buckeye Pipe Line
Company declared g. special cash divi-

dend basis to SIG basis, the last semi
annual disbursement having been Sc a
share.
The New York Transit Company de-
clared an extra cash dividend of $50
share, payable December 80, and in adj
dition declared a quarterly dividend OF
So share payable on January Is, 1923.

cember 6.

clared an extra dividend of SIS share

October railroad Income.

With car loadings almost at the
million car level at the end of every
week in October the outlook for greatly
increased gross railroad revenues is con-
sidered bright. Coal movement, which
forms the bulk Of income for a number
of carriers. was continued at a steady
pace during that month. Against these
heavy returns are charged operating ex-
penses which, in the case of a number
of roads. promise to be considerable.
OFFICIALS who follow thee monthly re-
turns closely see no reason for chang
ing the first estimate of $4,000. 900 to
$50. 100000 as the probable aggregate net
operating income for Glass / carriers
last month.

Ran Equipment Financing.

Continuance OF heavy bookings of new
freight cars and locomotives Is expected
to lead to further railroad financing
to provide for the payment of additions
to rolling stock. A considerable amount
of equipment financing already has been
done and the outlook is still good for
the flotation of more certificates The
latest instance of a road arrang-
ing for the payment of additional
equipment is furnished by the Chi
caGo Great Western, which yesterday
received authority from the Interstate
Commerce Commission to issue sS06. 577
In promissory notes made payable to
tho Pullman Company for 500 box cars.

establishing tax losses was a subject Of
interest in moro than one quarter OF the
financial community I'm connection with
yesterdays market and preceding ses-
sions. Agreement seems general that
selling OF this character will be an
appreciable factor In the market from
now until the end OF December. Con-
trary to the views held by some. 1t was
pointed out that the legal requirement
that thirty days must elapse after the
sale OF stock for tax purposes before 1t
can be rebought does not mean that
selling OF that nature cannot be done
after December 1. Sales may continue
up to the end of the year. but IL the
loss is deducted from total income Sc
curities thus sold may not be repur-
chased for at least a month.

Rail Merger Hearing.

Keen interest was shown here yester-
day in the first days hearing before the
Interstate Commerce Commission In the
matter of the merger of the Northern
Pacific, Great Northern and Burling
ton. The argument was opened by
Walker d. Hines. Great Northerns
counsel. The chief claims made by
those in favor of the consolidation were
that the separate roads would mean
needless expense. while by continuing
them as interloclxing systems the best
interests OF the public would be served.
