Bankers and lawyers representing
stockholders Of the Manhattan Railway
Company held meeting in the fnan-
cial district yesterday afternoon for
the purpose of putting the finishing
touches on the plan involving modif-
cation of the ccntrnct with the Inter
borough. It was Indicated that com
plete details Of the plan will be made
public within a day or two Strength
in Manhattan "El" shares on the
Stock Exchange gave rise to reports
that stockholders will get more out
of the settlement than was suggested
by the Unitea States Circuit Courts
proposal in Judge Mayors announce
ment on April 6. This provided for
reduction in the rental to be paid by
the !nterborough Rapid Transit under
its lease of the Manhattan Railway as
follows: For the fiscal year beginning

year beginning July ], 1923. per cent,
and for the fiscal year ending July ] .,

Continuing the recovery which
ctarted on Friday and Saturday. specu-
iatlve security prices yesterday almost
succeeded in efacing all the losses
sustained during the temporary reac-
tion during the first four days of trad
ing last week. Advances were primar-
lily in stocks. which had reacted con-
spicuously during the period of profit
taking. The upward movement was
fundamentally attributable to improved
technical factors within the market it
self, but the speculative appetite was
whetted too by publication of remark
ably good earnings by the Studebaker
company and the revelation of new
effect the still somewhat nebulous new
steel combination
The independent steels therefore
were especially sought. Buying yes
terday was primarily in the highly
speculative issues. Industrials were
more sotive than the railroads, which,
however, were firm as buying con-
tinued on the basis of the distinctly
favorable March earnings Of Glass l
railroads. which were proportonately
better than on any previous month
since the transportation act of 1920
has been operative.
With news from Genoa that the AL
lies had asked Russia to recognize her

tlon. However. sentiment In the for
clgn exchange market was a little more
cheerful, and quotations were firmer
for sterling and the principal European
exchanges.
Rain in the southwest and the trend
in foreign exchange and the stock mar
ket contributed to frmness in the
cotton market, where quotations rose
from 30 to 48 points. Wheat and
corn prices similarly rose.

Stude dehaker's Big Earnings

which showed a surplus equivalent to
S6.49 share on the common stock. a
new record. President Erskine pointed
out that while 1866 cars were pro-
duced in the first three months of 1922
the actual number sold was 22,80l, the
rest being held over for delivery this
quarter. In view Of the fact that the
company plans to build 10000 cars in
the current three months period, it is
assumed that actual sales will equal
that number, because of the 5000
vehicles carried over from the first
quarter. On this basis the company
should show earnings equivalent to
more than SO share on the common
stock for the June quarter

April Railroad EnrDjnps

1t is conceded in ra road quarters
that April earnings will not come up
to the showing for March, when net
operating income Of the SIS roads
IS expected to reach an lgrcgate Of
approximately 100000 when all the
reports have been made 10 the Inter
state Commerce Commission. March
earnings were enhanced by the heavy
volume Of coal traffic in antici patton
OF the closing down of many mines
With these preparations for the strike
April naturally felt the effect Of the
falling off in coal traffic, and this will
be reflected in the revenues for that
month. Estimates Of the net operat-
ing income for all the roads places the
total at about S65, 5,0o0,0 900, or drop Of
about $l5,00o,o00 compared with March.
Traffic has been picking up within re
cent days, however, and is expected
to improve as the demand for coal
increases.

The Tire Stocks

Continued strength in the shares of
the tire companies is attributed to re-
ports Of substantial improvement in
business of the various plants, as we'll
as TO the operations of speculative
cliques, who are doubtless cognizant of
the bettered conditions. It is claimed
by statisticians that output is now run
ming at the rate of 35000,000 tires a
year, compared with earlier estimates
of the 1922 production at slightly in
excess Of 30,0o0,OOo. The point is
stressed that last year private users
of tires pursued policy of strict
economy and made the old "shoes" last
as long as possible, by patching and
vulcanizing. These stocks, it is said,
are fast being replaced by new tires
Kelly Springfield directors are SEIZED
uled to meet to-day. 1t is expected
that a statement will be issued con-
cerning the company's current business,
which is understood to be three times
the orders year ago at this time.

Northern Pacific Financing.

Word is expected almost anv day
regarding the action of the Interstate
Commerce Commission on the appiica
tion of the Northern Pacific Railway
Company covering the refinancing Of
the outstanding Northern Pacific
Great Northern joint 61ss for which it
is responsible. No immediate Offering
will follow approval by by the commits
sion, as seventy-fve days notice of call
is required. During the first sixty
days of this period holders of the
6l2s retain the right of conversion Of
their bonds into the Northern Pacific
6s. So far the attitude of investors
toward the financing proposal has not
been indicated. Some of the bond
traders have taken a position, but the
holders have shown themselves pecu-
liarly apathetic to the situation.

Acccptances Outstanding Decline

Upon completion Of its third annual
survey of the acceptance business Of
the United States, the American Ac-
ceptance Council Ii it's current bulletin
reports the total amount of bankers
acceptances outstanding as of April /
at $416,422,118, representing a reduc-
tion as compared with 1864 ,092,113, on
April /, 1921 and $779,O01 ,237 on April
April |, 1920. Of the latest total s279,-
762,592 is credited to New York City,
which leads the balance of the country
by wide margin. The decline in the
markets activity is indicated by the
fact that dealers representing ninety
five per cent of the business done
IN these bills held in their portfolios on
April l only s33,176,736, against s1S5-
100000 two years ago.

Railroads. C0aI SAMMY

With the coal strike in effect a
month, the railroads are not yet
threatened with shortage. Accord
ing to statistics complied by the AS
sociatlon of Railway Executives, the
Eastern roads have enough coal in
sight to last for sixty days, while it
is estimated that they can secure
enough additional to supply them for
thirty days more. The so-called an
thracite roads, which include the Del
aware, Lackawanna g. Western, have
a four-month supply on hand, and the
lines in the Northwest have enough
coal to last over a similar period.

It was pointed out during the

one big fault with the powerful

their inability to play as good dc.

other thing which undoubtedly
handicapped Fairview, II not Blue,

floor their defense probably was
good, but on a large floor they could
not play together so we'll. On one
of the single courts Fairview looked
a great deal better than on the biz
