Foreign Loan Negotiationa

More than the usual number Of for
eign loans are currently under dis
cusion in the Street. Negotiations for
s5o,000.o00 issue Of short-tcrm Ar
gentine government securities are now
is shaping for Offering early next week

touches. Aside from these operations

Rise in Rail
Shares Boosts
Stock Market
Advance in Steel Issues Is
Checked by Realizing and
Absence of Reported
Progress in Merger Plans

! The rise in steel stocks being checked
/ by realizing sales and by the absence
OF reported progress in merger discus
sions, speculative interest for the ad-
vance yesterday shifted to the railroad
! shares. The copper stocks were still
in demand, while sugar stocks and a
number of the specialties were arain
bid up. but it was the attention devoted
to the rails that really determined the
course of the market The average
price of fifty stocks attained a new
high level for the year, due to the
buoyancy in railroad stocks and despite
slight net loss in the industrial divi-
/ sion.
Two other departments Of financial
trading occupied a relatively more
important position than has recently
been accorded them--the bond market,
which registered distinct turn for the
better, and the foreign exchanges,
which were featured by the advance of
sterling cables to s4,45A, fractional
improvement on the previous top mark
development, as did the forward move
ment of stocks, but of more conse-
quence was the success achieved during
a period when pressure from new offer
ings has been light in completing the
distribution of parts of isues still in
dealers hands.
Sterling was the only major Euro
pean currency to hold or better It's
position. Francs, lire, marks and many
others of the Continentals receded
fractlonally, procedure that has been
sufficiently regular of late to demon
strate the independent strength of
sterling. Bearing upon the latter, the
Bank of England statement made a
satisfactory showing, it's ratio being
close to the high for the year. The
Far Eastern exchanges kept up their
advance, encouraging further pur-
chases of silver, with proportionate
stimulus on the price of that metal.
The switch of railroad stocks on the
Exchange was largely engineered by
the professional trading element The
rails have for some time been relatively
quiet and have Jagged behind indus
trial stocks; in the terms of the Street
and In view of the spirit of the moment,
they were, therefore, "ripe" for a rise.
Their advance was accomplished with
out much support from the news The
statement of idle cars recorded a small
decrease, but, on the other hand, the
report for April of the Kansas City
Southern, the first to be issued for that
month disclosed considerable de-
cline In net as compared with the same
1month of 1921. Nor was the approach
of the reception Of the executives at the
White House capable of constructive
Interpretation as, although the arenda
for the dinner conference has not been
announced, its aim is generally under
stood to be to obtain voluntary con-
cessions from the carriers in the mat
! ter of rate reductions.
Wheat was dull almost throughout,
but the May option broke sharply be-
fore the finish, closing with net loss
OF cents, and other months dropped
Il to 1s cents in sympathy. Cotton
turned quieter and, after an irregular
movement, closed II points lower to IA
points higher.

Copper Reported at 1872 Cents

Further strength in the copper shares
yesterday followed the announcement
that electrolytic copper for May and
June delivery could not be obtain ed

Copper Export Association. it was also

current production we'll sold up. Sales
as whole this week are stated to be

ularly large order for delivery well

been closed Wednesday. Stocks of

Niryinia-Carolina Chemical

In connection with the offering yes
terday of S22,500,000 Virginia. Caro-
lima Chemical Company bonds, which
were quickly oversubscribed, c. G. Will
son, president Of the company, had
the following comment to make upon
the outlook: at is we'll known that
the agricultural communities in recent
months have derived great benefits
from the higher prices for their prod
ducts and improving local conditions
The most recent crop reports point to
an encouraging outlook for the COM
ing season. In short, the prospects at
present are Of more than usual prom
ise for the return to normal conditions
in the agricultural industry, which
after all, is the basis of our national
wealth and prosperity; consequently
We look forward with every confidence
in the future prosperity Of the COM
pany."

Banks of Issue Conference

While officialdom maintains silence,
tho belief is gaining in the financial
district chat the conference Of repre-
scntativcs Of central banks of issue,
proposed by Sir Robert Horne end for
which invitations we're supposed 10 be
sent out by the Bank Of England will
probably not be held. The admins
tration Indicated. when limitations
we're received that Governor Benjamin
serve Bank would be asked to take
part in the discussions, that it would
approve his unofficial participation So
Ear as known the matter has netHf
passed this stage of intimatioas. Bank
ers are wondering whether tho a5and =
onment of the conference, if it Is to
be abandoned, may be credited to dis
couragement over the outcome nj Cen
oa or TO the fact that the project was
framed to test American sentiment IN
the hope that the American gold sup
ply could in this way be opened up to
Europe. President Harding and lead
ing m embers Of his Cabinet are known
to oppose any use OF this gold as cover
for European currencies, and it is
thought possible that their indorse-
ment Of merely unofficial representa-
tion discouraged Europe's politicians.
German Representative in Mexico Par
ley
Cable advices received here yester-
day reported that Dr. Paul Won Schaw-
bach, Of $. Bleichroeder 4, Co would
represent German holders Of Mexican
securities at the conference to be held
here early next month between the in
ternational committee Of bankers on
n iot cf lcff
de la Huerta. This was interpreted as
meaning that Germany would be &C
corded official representation on that
committee, n step which has been in
contempls ton for some time. The
German interest in the situation Is so
large that Germany would unquestion-
ably have had voice in the delibera-
tions previously, had not the war and

The two silk stocks listed on the
Stock Exchange, kayser and Mallinson,
ports of recent improvement in their
lines. Mallinson equaled its previous
high for the year at 23ss and closed
only one-eighth under that figure. 1t
was recently announced that the com
pany in the first three months of 1921
earned the full years dividend require
ments on the preferred stock. The
manner in which the two stocks moved
forward together led to talk Of a pos
sible consolidation, but this was not
surprising, in view of the numerous
merger rumors in the air

influence of Indian and other Far
