Northern Pacific and oil.

There was considerable buying of
shares Of the Northern Pacific yesterday
following reports which are said to have
originated In q stock exchange house
which is popularity supposed to act at
times for big Standard Oil interests
that the Northern Pacific Railroad Com
pany has finally discovered oil in com
mercial volume on it's Montana proper
ties Every effort to check up on the
report was without success. 1t is
known, however. that geolog,sts and en-
gineers have for some time maintained
that the Northern Pacifcs properties In
the northwestern corner of the country
were sure to prove valuable as oil lands
after proper development. 1t is under
stood that for years the company has
been developing these lands with that
in mind. and the announcement that oil
has actually rewarded their efforts
would not come as complete surprise.
1t was recalled yesterday, however. that
away back in 1919, when the big oil
boom was in progress and oil stocks
were in demand to an Unsuitable extent,
reports from what were then considered
official sources that oil had been pro-
duced by the company in paying guam
titles were later shown to be without
much foundation.

were strong bulges in Allied Chemical,

The list was firm all around at the

and three or four others which were de-
pressed by profit taking.
Traders found in strike news informa-

favorable events this week. The stub

their stand on seniority rights of shop
workers would not be changed was
somewhat disturbing. but the market

General Electric,u Rise.

The board Of directors of the General
Electric Company. or at least impor-
tant interests on the board, are con-
sidering the advisability OF bigger cash
dividend distributions. it was learned
yesterday. which accounts to a large
degree for the recent strength of the
stock, which has mace a new high al

an extra or a larger regular dividend,

Canadian Exchange and boone.

Among the many reasons advanced for
Improvement in the last two years in
Canadian exchange rates is the heavy
traffic in liquor, illegal but heavy. never
theless, which is said to be conducted
across the international border. OF
course there has been an Improvement
in the Canadian trade balance as re-
nected in the statements of strictly legi-
innate business. but bootlegging enter
prise, 1t Is asserted has been carried on
on such tremendous scale as to cause
heavy exports of American funds to
Canada. It is only about two years
ago that the Canadian dollar was worth
about S3 cents in this country, but its
progress has been so rapid as to be al
most amazing when compared with
other deprecated currencies and to-day
Canadian funds are measured in Ameri-
can money at the rate OF almost 80 "
cents to the dollar. In other words. the
premium on the American dollar in
Canada is now the equivalent OF the
one-half of one per cent. Of Volstead
fame which made the Canadian dollar
what II Is to-day.

TOPICS OF WALL STREET.
German Mark. at .1S% Cent

The monotonous regularity with which
the German mark has been declining has
made it an old story in Wall Street.
Nevertheless. there is real interest in
the fact that at yesterdays new low
level of 1885 hundredths of cent per
par. the German currency occupied the
position where it's units. once worth
nearly % cents each, could be bought at
the rate of nearly 700 for a dollar.
Economists and foreign exchange ex-
perts hold out no hope whatever for tie
recovery of Germanys money and a
complete readjustment OF her entire cur
rency system is looked upon as the
only step possible.
