DryGoods Market
BY STUART P. wESI
Copyright. 1922.J

New York, March Trading in
the wider constructions of print
cloths slowed down for a time to-
day. There was a Discrimination
on the part of the mill
men to sell any large amount at
the figures quoted, which were cas-
Ter than those which have recently
prevailed, and an equal disinclina-
ton on the part of the buyers to
strengthen their bids. The improv-
ed tone in raw cotton served TO
render the goods market some
what firmer than on Monday. Mar
row goods continued firm and
sheetings were steady, although
there is still a lack of inquiry for
the heavy constructions. Sateens
were inactive, as were combed
yarn cloths. Some shading was
evident in tire fabrics.
The raw silk market was in
somewhat more stable condition,
rejecting Yokohoma buying was
anything but brisk, as there also
seems a tendency among purchas-
ers to await still further price re-
auctions. Hosiery manufacturers
are taking slightly more interest
The strikes against reduction of
wages at Paterson mills are being
closely watched as affording a test
of conditions.

Curb Market
BY STUART p. WEST
Copyright, 1872

New York, March There were
a collection of specially movements
mostly in the direction of higher
prices on the surb exchange today.
1t took onl comparatively few buy
ing orders to force sharp advance
in Durant Motors. In the mining
group the new Volcano mines was
again the leader. Operations for
the rise were apparent in Goldwyn
pictures, and these seemed to be
meeting little opposition.
r. J. Reynolds stock was active
and strong, following the publica-
ton of the annual report which
made a remarkable showing. Net
earnings were $16,258 1922 against
SIC, 691 ,294 in 1920 and after all pre-
ferred and common dividends there
was surplus of s1O,05S,322 against
S5,691,294 the year before. These
results were sufficiently reassuring
to counterfeit the effect of the sharp
price cutting in the cigaret trade in
which this company is pitted
against American Tobacco. This
trade war has been responsible for
selling of the stocks on preceding
days.
Profit taking sales made their in
fiuence felt in Inter-Continental
Rubber and Libby, Mcneil and
Libby. Postum Cereal was check
ed on its recovery and once more
was disposed to droop. Oil shares
were very irregular, moving, how
ever, for the most part, within mar
row limits. Maracaibo oil was in
active demand at a new high for
the present movement. Standard
Oil of Indiana went higher, while
Caribbean Syndicate was firm. In
the Cities Service group the pre-
ferred stock moved up although the
old common and the bankers shares
were somewhat lower.

Bond Market
BY STUART p. WEST
fCopyrighf. . 1921

New York, March Interest in
today's bond market conferred espe-
cially in the large volume of cur
rent offerings, both domestic and
foreign. The success of the five
year per cent Argentine loan yes
terday was followed by the an
nouncements of new loans aggra-
eating approximately S50,000,000. It
was evident that the easy money
market was proving favorable, not
only in helping to maintain the
strength of listed bonds, but also
in encouraging new financing.
Among the most important an
nouncements was the award to a
New York syndicate of s14, 100000
four and a half and five per cent
various improvements city of De-
troit bonds. The price paid was
1927 and the bonds will be Off
cred publicly probably tomorrow.
The city controller of Detroit also
sold at auction about 100000 five
per cent public utility bonds dated
May i, 1920, and maturing May 1,
1859. A Detroit firm was the sue
cessful bidder and secured the block
at 106.75. Another strong New York
syndicate has bought 100000 five
per cent 80 year Philippine gov
eminent investment bonds for
101.6 and these securities, too, will
be sold Immediately, it is expect
ed.
The interstate commerce commits
sion today received the application
of the Buffalo, Rochester and Pitts
burgh railway company to issue
S8,351 900 consolidated mortgage
AZ per cent bonds. The company
intends to use $6,251 900 of the
amount to refund maturing indebt
edness and $2,100,000 for improve
ments.

Although the upward sweep of
foreign exchange rates has been
halted temporarily at least, the for
eign external loans in the main are
holding firm. Concerted rise of the
members of this group has been
broken up with United Kingdom and
Japanese issues both convertible
into sterling, marking time, and
Belgian and French bonds up frac-
tionally. The French government

time, and the French SIS rose about

FINANCE DRIFT
UNCERTAIN DUE
TO NO IMPULSE
BIZ STUART p. WEST.

Wall Street, New York. March z.
Nothing OF consequence happened
IN the financial situation today to
affect calculations regarding the
market. Left without any fresh
impulse one way or the other, the
drift in all the markets was uncer-
tain. Speculative sentiment on the
stock exchange for the moment is
divided. One party takes its stand
on the proposition that there has
been no widening to speculative in
tarests sufficient to weaken the
credit position and allow the dis
tribution of stocks. 1t admits that
the market has got well ahead of
the business recovery, which it is
discounting, but the point is made
that this is the normal procedure,
and that what Wall street has in
yiew is not conditions as they are
now, but as they will be six months
hence. The other party has appar-
emily disposed of some of its stocks
and is in a frame of mind to pro-
fess disappointment because the
mace of industrial recovery has been
so slow, and to maintain that the
rise In stocks during the last month
and a half has at least temporarily
been oyerdone.
These two factions have been
working at crossed purposes since
Friday last. The results have been
varying so far as the general list
Is concerned, but as regards indi-
vidual stocks, with the advantage
decidedly in favor of the side in
terested in higher prices. These
characteristics were again apparent
today. The general movement was
very irregular, but the points of
strength in special stocks far out
stripped the points of weakness.
The Victory AIS reached a new
high, but otherwise there were very
few of the features in the bond
trading of the day. The check to
the upward movement in the for
eign exchanges has held its effect
on foreign government bonds, and
although these are holding around
their high levels, they have stop
ped going up The general bond
market is still waiting to see wheth-
er the money market is to stay at
its present Az per cent or whether,
as it happened before, this rate
will prove not sufficiently attrac-
tive to out of town banks to prevent
them from drawing down their New
York balances There does not
seem to be much prospect of any
further reduction in money rates
until federal reserve discounts are
again cut.
On the speculative markets the
stock market was the only one
which stood up against the pres
sure of realizing sales.
Wheat broke again and the ex-
changes, especially sterling, were
quite weak. Sight drafts on Lon
don were quoted this afternoon six
cents on the pound below their
highest of a week ago. But at least
it cannot be concluded that the
downward turn is as yet anything
more than a normal reaction in
somewhat too enthusiastic specula-
ton Certainly it does not indicate
any lessening of the fundamental
changes in the situation of interna-
tional finances which were respon-
sible for the advance from $4.17
level of January to 4.44 level at the
close of February.

The annual statement of 1921 will

CORN PRODUCTS.
BY STUART p. WEST

Corn Products stock made anoth-
er new high record, crossing 107,
despite the heavy reduction in op-
Grating profits shown in the annual
report. AS compared with a total
of $1S,5S6,032 in 1920, the 1921 total
was $9.451 400. A like amount was
appropriated for the depreciation,
but the big saving was in federal
taxes, for which only sS25,000 was
reserved last year as against $4,-
$4,000 the year before. Notwith-
standing the surplus for 1921 was
only $1,601 ,428 as against 1855, 004
in 1920. In the light of these fig
ures, the present selling price of
Corn Products stock would be hard
to understand were it not for the es-
sential fact that the stock is close
ly held. The principal owners
have fine profits, but are not
at all anxious to take them,
partly, it may be, for in
come tax reasons, but more
largely because of the belief that
on account of its great accumula-
ton or treasury assets Corn Prod
ucts will eventually go much high
er. While there has been no dis
tribution of stock on the way up
there has been persistent short
selling. The professional crowd,
which gets its name from a New
York uptown hotel, began opposing
the bull movement when the stock
was quoted in the low sos, and it
had been desperately trying to re-
coup ever since. Hence the mar
al of
one of the strongest, if not the
strongest, of anything on the list
Every once in while this techni-
cal condition is exploited at the
expense of the shorts, and it is on
