After a weak ching security nr;ces

board because of the rejection by the
railway executives of President Hard.
ings program to end the railway
strike. On the contrary, both rail
road and industrial shares on the
average at the close revealed slight
gains for the day.
The temporary impasse in settling
the railway tangle was discounted by
late selling in Tuesdays market. A
continuation of the strike is distinctly
unfavorahle. particularly as the finau-
cial district is inclined to think that
the coal strike will not be called off
until after the railroad cleavage has
been ended. And yet spectators were
not inclined to be pessimistic. They
hesitated to make new commitments
but where transactions took place
prices rose.
In the race of the German mark to-
ward zero further advances were
made yesterday, as the unit of Teu-
ton currency slumped to .11sa of a
cent. The weakness of the mark,
which was intensified by the British
note indicating that Allied debts to the
British Treasury would have to be
paid in proportion as the British must
pay the United States Treasury, was
reflected in easiness Of continental
European bonds, particularly Of coun-
tries most interested in German re-
paratiors and inter-Allied debts.
There was q reaction in the cotton
market from the enthusiastic bidding
up of prices amounting to 50 bale
based on the Department of Agricul-
ture report on the condition of the
crop. Profit taking and speculative
switches led to q setback of 48 to 81
points.

June Railroad Earnings

Strength in the railroad shares was
one. of the conspicuous features Of yes
terday's stock market, the significant
fact being the part played by the coal
ers. The Association of Railway Ex-
ecutives brought out compilation Of
the june earnings of ITO Glass roads,
showing not only Il material increase
in net operating income but also a
"a per cent increase in gross income
from operations. The gross for these
roads amounted to s435, $685. 900, COM
pared with $425 ,7e7 900 in June, 1921.
Net totaled s70,6O1 900, compared with
S47,979,000 year ago, an increase Of
All per cent. From these preliminary
figures it is estimated that the total
net in ell Glass roads will reach
about s7G,0o0,000, which would give
the carriers return of about ~ per
cent on property valuation, as against
the 5& per cent allowed under the
revised transportation act.

What's Behind
ActiUe Stocks /?
61--Bethlehern Steel

When the Bethlehem Steel Cor
poration has completed the purchase
OF the Lackawanna Steel Company
1T will be strongly entrenched as
the second largest unit in the steel
industry, claiming about % per
cent Of the counJry's capacity for
producing steel rails and structural
shapes. Assuming that the basis
OF exchange first announced is used,
Bethlehem will have $139 878. 500
capital stock, consisting of 100000
600 per cent preferred, S28,951 400
per cent preferred, $1s,S62. 900
common and S66.065,100 Glass "B"
common. As Of December 81. 1921,
the funded debt OF the two com
panies totaled S1s5, $4,000. The ret
tangible assets of both Ieoualed
S250.10 share on the amount Of
Bethlehem common and "B" stock
that will be outstanding when the
Lackawanna purchase has been com
pieted. The property and equip
ment of the two companies is car
ried at 1901, 800. Through SUBJ
sidiary the Bethlehem operates nine
shipbuilding and repair plants, this
industry enabling the corporation
to go through the depression with
a good profit. Bethlehem's net
earnings in the FIVE years since the
Glass "B" stock was issued averaged
22.83 year on both classes of COM
mon. Net profits of ,T.ackawanna for
the ten years ended December 81,
1921, averaged 1911 per cent on the
common. Glass @B" stock differs
from the common only in that the
former has no voting power. The
Class "B" stock is the more active
of the two. Its range since 1917
has been: High, 1856, in 1917; low,
A1sa, in 1921; yesterdays close, IT.

Politics and Finance

The note sent by the British govern
ment to it's debtor nations was regard
ed by international bankers as a con-
structive, if political, move toward the
settlement of Europe's problems. 1t
is believed that the purpose underlying
the dispatch of the note is to isolate
the United States and to put the bur
den Of action squarely up to this coun-
try. How successful this will be re-
mains to be seen, but some bankers
are of the view that ultimately the
United States, under pressure of this
kind, will make some concessions. The
British gesture, bankers pointed out,
seems on a grand scale unless consid-
Grafton is given to the fact that most
of the debts the government is ready
to remit for value received are non
collectible

Marks Go Still Lower

The German mark sank to a new
low level for all time at .11B Of a
cent. Offerings were on q heavy scale
and met with little absorption even
at concessions. The market here was
virtually at a standstill and the de-
cline was largely in response to the
movement of quotations cabled from
be for the account of the German gov
ernment, which still has not finally
been relieved of the August IS pay
ment of 50,0Oo,oO0 gold marks. The
other exchanges were sympathetically
weak at the outset, but subsequently
frmer in quiet dealings.

Another Cut in Crude Oil

The third reduction in crude oil
prices since July Is occurred yester-
day, adding a further element of un-
settlement to the outlook for the oil
stocks. The cut was initiated when
the Sinclair Consolidated Oil Com
pany announced that its price for mid
continent crude had been marked down
25 cents barrel, to $1.25, as compared
with 81 when the movement started.
Action OF the Sinclair was followed
shortly by Prairie Oil and Gas, which
announced new quotations Of $125 a
barrel for Kansas and Oklahoma and
$3.50 for north central Texas crude.

In the Doldrums

A strong bond market and a stock
market that at least commands inter
est are not sufficient to overcome the
lethargy that prevails among financial
leaders in degree rarely observed
even in midsummer. This is explained
by the fact that for upward of eighteen
months the nations financial leaders
have been working at high tension. 1t
is only a year ago, for example, that
the Mercantile Bank of the Americas
situation reached crisis, to cite only
one Of the major difficulties encoun-
tered during readjustment. Row, with
business definitely headed toward full
recovery, the opportunity for let
down is presented and bankers are
taking full advantage Of it.
