New York ccntrals Dividend.

Among railroad and financial authori-
ties there is a strong belief that the New
York Central's present dividend rate will
be increased before the close Of the year.
This view receives support from Wednes-
days action Of the management in maxi
ing q second semi-annual disbursement
OF 4 per cent. on the Michigan Centrars
stock and from the initial dividend Of 2
per cent. declared on the Big Four's COM
mon stock a few weeks ago. Current
earnings of the two subsidiaries warrant
the assumption that the increased income
from these sources will continue through
out the year netting the parent COM
pany additional income Of approximately
$1.500,000. The difference between a
per cent. and 6 per cent. disbursement
on New York Centrals stock is $2,50O.-
600 yearly. From operation of its own
railroad property in the first four months
of 1922 the CentraPs net earnings were
more than $9,000.O00 ahead OF those for
the corresponding period last year. Ex-
Guiding s5,613.000 belated Federal COM
pensation. included in the conpany's 1921
income account. its earnings on the stock
for the twelve months ended April 80,
1922. were about $40 a share.

TOPICS OF WALL STREET.
Reaction Not Unexpectesi.

The reaction in the market yesterday.
although exceedingly sharp. was moth
ing like that OF Monday and appeared
to be what some are pleased to call
secondary reaction. 1t was not entirely
unexpected. except to those who refused
to recognize the fact that confidence in
the market had been somewhat UNDER
mined by the performances of Monday.
In fact. veteran traders sold stocks
on Tuesdays and Wednesdays rallies
expecting just such setback as oc-
Cured yesterday and to back theories
they had plenty of precedent. Confi-
dence in a market which has gone
ahead steadily for months and then has
broken sharply is not easily restored.
and as a consequence drop like that
of Monday is normally followed by a
period In which lack of confidence
means lack Of buying power and lack
of resistance to pressure at any time
the bear element desires to jump on
top OF the market. That shorts put out
by shrewd traders last week were COW
cred to large extent yesterday. is the
general belief in the street. Further
short selling yesterday represented the
commitments OF those who refuse to
believe in ths course OF a market until
1t has almost reached Its climax.

Chicago and Eastern Illinois.

Although its new issues have enjoyed
substantial rise in price. Chicago and
Eastern Illinois bids fair to continue

the first quarter OF 1922 that railroad
company earned at the annual rate Of
5.65 per cent on its property value or
at the yearly rate Of IL per cent. on its
$22.051,047 preferred stock. II allowances
be made for the seasonal variation Of
traffic. Beginning with April the roads
earnings were depressed by the coal min
ers' strike. It's report for that month
showed deficit of $23S.414 after the
deduction Of taxes. interest and sinking
fund charges. Gross operating revenues
for the first three weeks Of May totaled
$1.223,694. or $134,104 more than in the
corresponding period Of 1921, and indi-
Gated a recovery In freight movement
which will be carried further with the
termination Of the coal strike.

the situation in the Near East. Of

Freight Traffic Gains.

A study Of traffic statistics Of the
steam railroads for the first four months
Of the current year reveals that the
freight movement in that period was 81
per cent greater than that in the corre-
spending period last year. In April, the
first month of the coal strike, net ton
miles totaled 24.709.000. 900. a decrease
Of S57.O0o.000, or 3.4 per cent. from
April 1921. For the first four months
Of the year. however. the net ton mile
figure was 113.252,000. 1000. or 6,125, ,000,-

virginia Coke Dividend Passed.

The directors Of the Virginia Iron.
Coal and Coke Company passed ysster-
day the semi-annual dividend OF 8 per
cent. on the common stock due at this
time. Their action was not entirely un-
expected because Of what was pretty
generally known OF the condition Of the
company's business and also because
Of the danger signals displayed by tho
common stock on the tape. For some
time Virginia Coke common has been
selling at a figure below many non
dividend payers Of other companies in
the same industry. The company only
a few months ago paid q so per cent.

previous days proceedings, but today
the reading Of the journal was barely
completed and Senator Harrison Of
