partly a speculative reflex, resulting
from short covering, speculative buv-

reflection of the belief that some con.

Russian Trade Feelers

The method of APPROACH to partial
restoration Of Russian trade through
the channels now being used by Brit
ish and other European manufacturers
is now engaging the attention of some
Of the larger industrial corporations,
particularly those which before the
war had large interests in that coun-
try. An informal meeting was held
yesterday by a group Of executives at
the Lawyers Club, at which the feast,
bility of seeking such trade through
Riga and the Baltic countries was
thoroughly canvassed. Emphasis was
placed on the apparent ability of i'm
porters and consumers at these points
to pay in gold. No decision on any
plan of action was reached, but the
companies represented decided indi-
vidually to conductan investigation of
the situation through their foreign
agents.

Steel Merger Hearing Jp,v 10

Since the disappearance from the
Curb Exchange Of the i"when issued
shares of the North American Steel
Company the Street has been wonder
ing just what progress has been made
in the plans for merging the constitu-
emit companies Midvale, Republic and
Inland. 1t was learned yesterday that
the sponsors Of the merger have been
quietly making progress. but have been
unable to make any further announce
ment because of the Investigations of
the consolidation being made by the
Federal Trade Commission and the De-
partment Of Justice. The next inpor-
tant development will be the hearing
set for July 10 before the Federal
Trade Commission, after which it is
expected the commission will make
known its attitude regarding the mer-
ger.

American Ice Starts Up Again

A sudden outburst Of buying ac-
tivity in American Ice shares yester-
day caused q revival of rumors cur
rent back in the spring that the COM
pany sometime this year would either
declare a substantial dividend or split
up the common shares on fourfor
one basis. AS result of the days
dealings the stock moved up points
above Mondays last sale, while the
preferred gained points to SO. This
is the season Of the year when Ameri-
can Ice is showing it's best earnings.
In the fiscal year ended October 81,
1921, the company reported surplus
equivalent to nearly $40 share on
the common after liberal write offs
for depreciation, maintenance and
improvements.

being responsible for market move

on August for six weeks vacation.

Even then, according to Wall Street
