RrOkeH' Opinions

Newburger, Henderson 4 Loeb
For the time being the technical posi- :
tion of the market outwcighs outside
conditions ard events. Until the neces-
sary adjustment is completed to correct
the overbought condition. there Is a
likelihood of Il continuation of the wide
variation of prices and rapid reversal
in the market trend. There never was
a bull market. however. that did not
have many reactions, and II Is now quite
apparent enough distribution had taken
place In the last three or four weeks
during the twenty six consecutive mil
lion share days to require period OF
digestive rest. There Is no reason for
any one to become frightened because
of these inevitable shakedowns and dis
pose Of their holdings on the breaks or
during periods of weakness. On the
contrary. we feel confident any further
reaction will afford trading opportuni- =
ties until the market has found its level.
Industry and business Is on the mend
everywhere: in fact. constructive fac
tors are plentiful. The proposed merger
Of the Independent steel companies Is
raridly approaching completion. Presi
dent Iiarding'S conference with the rail =
road executives should clear up all
points of dispute In the transportation
industry. Notwithstanding the many
changes in the complexion of the Genoa

SAY GUIDE TURNED
ON MRS. ST|LLMAN
Alleged Sale Of Love Letters 10
Cited as instance Of Double-
Crossing
BEAUVAIS DENIES DEAL

New York. May !S.--IIas Fred
X. Reauvnis. the North Woods guide.
turned on Mrs. Anne I'rquhart Potter
Stillmnn. and for what reason?
An answer to this question prcdi.
Gated on introduction into the suit Fri.
day of four letters alleged to have been
purchased from the guide for $15 900.
was sought yesterday and the informa.
tion was obtained that Mrs. Stillmnn
has suspected Bcauvnis for nearly a
year. although he repeatedly has ex.
pressed himself rs loyal to her cause.
These declarations were made by the
guide to newspaper men. attorneys for
Mrs. Stillman nnd to the defendant
herself on her midwinter trip into the
North.
Whether such n sale ever took place
and the authoritativeness Of the letters
will not be answered satisfactorily. be.
cause the defense lawyers have made It
known that they will carry out Mrs.
Stillman's order and close her side
Wednesday. thereby blocking any fur.
ther introduction of evidence by the
bankers lawyers.
Case Has "Metallic Ring"
Reauvais is quoted in dispa tches from
Montreal as denying that he sold the
letters. and Mrs. Stillman's testimony
regarding them was TO the effect that.
while the handwriting was similar to
hers. the sentiments were certainly not
hers. Rut. nevertheless. the fact re-
mains that the letters are In evidence
and may possibly play an important
part in n decision.
The important communications
were discussed BY John F. Brennan,
chief Of Mrs. Stillman's lawyers. Ger.
tain that the verdict Of the referee would
be dismissal Of Mr.. Stillman's charges
and that Guy would be declared legiti.
mate. Mr.. Brennan at his home in
Yonkers said:
"The entire case Of Mr.. Stillman has
metallic ring to II. We charged that
there had been corruption Of witnesses
in Canada. and IL this witness IL tell .
ing the truth when he said that the
letters had been bought for Sl5, 900. 1t
Is simply continuation Of the same
policy of using money for improper
purposes
Denies She Wrote Letters
"As TO Beauvais." he added. II
don't know whether he got any money
or not. He says he didn't and they say
he did. That's all know about It, ex :
cept that know that the letters never
were written by Mrs. Stillman."
Reports that Mrs. Stillman had long
suspected that Beauvais might spring a
surprise In the suit were discounted by
her attorneys. They pointed out Beau.
vais in interviews had declared that he
intended to fight to the end in support
Of Mrs. Stillman. and they called at.
tention to the fact that In April he spent
much time in the Quebec timber coun.
try rounding up witnesses for her.
II there has been anything In the
nature of a double-cross. 1t IL intimated
that Beauvais' change Of heart may be
due to the inconspicuous role he was
ultimately forced to play In the
Canadian end Of the suit Then his
publicity sun was beginning to set, in
the rays of which he had reveled for
many months.

merger Of the Rethlekem Steel Corpora.
tion with the Lackawanna Steel Com.
pany was entirely responsible Tor the
rally which started late Thursday aft.
ernoon and was continued throughout
Fridays session. but It is a question
whether or not this was the real factor
in the situation.
| As u matter Of fact. in bull markets
news developments always nre In favor
downward movements Of long duration,
such as the bear market Of 1O2O and
1921, which cnrricd prices to the low
eat points that had been touched in
many years.
Bond Market a Fit Tired
Bond men stated at the end Of the
week there was what might he termed
ms a tired feeling in the trade. This,
they asserted. had been due to the many
new issues that had been put out during
the last few weeks. which had resulted
in somewhat clogging the market and
overlooking dealers with securities
which the. are now scrambling to sell.
The feeling In the trade was that
until such time as the present surplus
age has been distributed among in
vcstors the market will bear evidence
Of an easier tone. with fewer new offer.
ings than have recently been placed on
the market.
1t is regarded as highly essential that
the market be given an opportunity to
undergo proper digestion Of the new
issues before 1t is further crowded. be-
cause situations similar to the present
have been experienced on numerous oc-
casions in the past. during which II has
been necessary to do considerable mis-
sionury work. in order to effect the
right kind Of distribution.

Popularity Of Tax. Exempt Issues

As an indication of the popularity OF
tax exempt issues, attention may be
directed to the successful outcome Of the
S75. ZOO. 900 offering Of Federal Land
Bank bonds. which were over subscribed
within few minutes after the opening
of the books. Most of the dealers stated
they had quickly placed their awards
from the syndicate managers and some
had demand for more bonds than they
were able to supply.
This. however. unquestionnbly was
due almost entirely to the tax. .emption
provision carried by the issue. which
renders the bonds highly attractive to
the investor of large means having a
big income tax to pay.
