Interest Turns
To Rail Shares

Make Good Showing As
Industrials Show Irregu-
larify on Profit Taking

Speculation in stocks. carried on
actively again yesterday, was marked

sues. Despite the climbing Of Steel
common to the highest price for near
ly three years, industrial shares, be-
set by profit taking sales, became ir-
regular. and on the average revealed
| moderate net declines. Mean time
enthusiasm for the rails mounted, and
standard issues reached new high
levels for the year.
When the statements Of earnings
| and expenses for the Carriers during
the month of September become avail
| able toward the close Of this month
| it is expected that they will tell a
striking story of resumption of sub
stantial profits after the abnormal
weeks of the shopmen's strike. More
over, the shifting of traffic conditions
| resulting from the coal strike Is ex-
pected to defer heavy carrying of coal

I,ably with the early months of 1922.
| The large role played by the profes-
sional speculator in the present mar
kets has been reflected in perpetual
shifting of interest from one group Of
shares to another, in an effort to bring
various issues into line with prevail
| ing price levels.
Early advances in the cotton mar
ket invited realizing sales, which re-
suited in net declines Of 8 to ID points.
Speculation in wheat was an express
sion of confusion regarding the i'm
mediate price outlook, and quotations
were irregular.
In the foreign exchange market
sterling was steady, and most of the
Continentals were easier. Marks,
however, showed slight recovery.
The rise Of call money to per cent
before the close reflected the unset
tlement resulting from the mid onth
payments, including Liberty bond in
terest, redemption of Treasury cer-
tificates, and the payment of s50,o00,-
600 to the United States Treasury
by Great Britain. The operation
tended to augment the supply of funds
in the hands of the New York bank,
but the immediate effect. as is usual
during such readjustments in the
money market, was stiffening of
rates.

Cary Denies stoek piyidend Rumor

Ebert II. Gary, chairman Of the
United States Steel Corporation, inn
snediatcly spiked a rumor current yes
terday that the company was planning
the, declaration of a large stock divi-
dend. $50 far as know" said Judge
Gary, "the question has neither been
discussed nor raised" His denial was
published In the financial district
shortly after United States Steel com
mon stock had touched 11fh. the
highest price since the postwar boom
Of 1919. The denial of the stock diyi-
dsnd yarn served to dampen the specu-
lative enthusiasm that had been ram
pant in the stock during the early
trading. To those familiar with the
policies Of the Gary. management the
denial occasioned little surprise.
United States Steel is one of the most
strongly entrenched financially of
American industrial corporations.
During the past. IL has been the idea
of Judge Gary to share its prosperity
with the employees, and there Is no
reason to believe that this policy will
not be continued.

Money and Credit

Opening and renewing at Az per
cent, the rate for call money yesterday
stiffened steadily until per cent was
reached in the last hour. The advance
of the rate was attributed to the turn
over of funds involved in government
and other payments made yesterday. 1t
was announced at the Federal Reserve
Bank that the government would with
draw to-day $8,800,000 of the money on
deposit with the banks in this district.
There was quite a demand for time
money at Az per cent but actual busi-
ness was limited by the fact that for
the periods in request lenders generally
held for per cent.

National Lead and Stock Dividend

Regarding rumors that the matters
Of stock dividend has been under
consideration by directors Of the Ma

president, says: II have noticed state
ments in the press that it was ad-
vantageoms to declare surplus in stock
dividends as means of reducing
taxes. have no reliable information
as to how the National Lead Company
or its stockholders would be benefited
by such action. OF course, the dema-
gogue who complains when we pay 6
per cent might not complain II we
were paying only 3 per cent, although
the total dividend paid would be the
same. Our articles of incorporation
would have to be amended if we were
to declare all our surplus as stock
dividend. We are naturally studying
the matter, but as yet have seen no
reason for such course" At the
end of 1921 the company had a profit

pared with an outstanding common
stock capitalization of s20,655, 400.

The Gold Shipment Point

The swing in exchange market con-
ditions which has given to Canadian
funds the advantage of a slight pre-
MUM. over the American dollar in re-
cent weeks, reversing the situation in
force virtually since the outbreak of
war in 1914, has produced at least one
transaction emphasizing the altered
financial relations between buyers and
sellers in these two countries. It is
not so long ago that gold was coming
through from Canada to enable the
retirement. Of Dominion debt without
paying the premium then ruling onstha
American dollar. Within the last week
large New York banking institution
has purchased s5O0,000 internal Can
adian municipal notes and paid for
them in gold to escape the premium
that was commanded by Montreal
funds.
Further Augmentation of Gold Supply
If there is no reason now for gold
shipments from Canada to the United
States, like condition does not apply
iE other countries. This was demon
strated yesterday in the arrival here
OF gold from several sources, invoIv-
ing an augmentation of the American
gold supply by about $6,000,000. The

at $4,S00,000 to the New York Federal
Reserve Bank, presumably repre- esenting
consignment from the Nederland-
sche Bank for which the reserve
bank acts as agent, although no posi-
tive information was obtainable on this
point. The Celtic brought 1925, 900
gold to Kuhn, Loeb & Co., and La
Savoie about $4,000 gold to the Ma
tional Bank of Commerce. Several
other minor shipments were also re-
ported as received. :.
Overflow Subscriptions to Government
Loan
Investment bankers are not inclined
to regard over-seriously the view that
the excess of subscriptions to the
$500, 100000 Government loan can be
diverted into other issues. Many. APP
plicants for large amounts, including
some of the savings banks, want this
particular bond and are expected to
go into the open market to obtain it.
1t had already been established that
there was good absorptive capacity
for new. issues rightly priced and the
result merely confirms this fact. In
cidentally, the new loan is still name-
less. Are the bonds to be known
merely as United States Government
