Confidence of Investors In

NEW YORK, March 25.-The up
ward trend in prices of railroad
bonds today is the consequence of
"a number of factors, all serving to
increase confidence of investors in
the financial status of carrier sys-
TENS.
Briefly, they include the dimin-
ishing prospect of hostile railroad
legislation in this session of Con.
gress. and the removing of a leg
islative menace which has been
prominently in the foreground for
two or three years: improved earn
ing power, the result of increased
gross earnings and declining operat-
ing costs; fewer labor disturbances
and the growing successes of di-
rect negotiations between the rail
road systems and the organized
labor units; continued progress IN
consolidation plans and in practical
cooperation between important rail
road lines; low money rates and the
larger amounts of funds available
for investment securities.
Interest in railroad bonds is not
confined to prime issues which com
pose the holdings of conservative
investors. Second grade, or specula-

Rumors that directors contem-
plated such action freely circulated
IN the financial district yesterday
That the report received much cred
ence was evidenced by weakness
IN the stock during the previous
closing hour. Actual announcement
or the emission, however, was the
signal for extremely heavy selling
which carried Can down about 8
points from yesterdays finals.
fortunate enough, the market had
been placed in a highly favorable
position to receive the news, due to
the existence of an overcrowded
short interest, evidence of which was
round in the heavy demand in the
loan crowd for practically all active
industrials.
The situation in some issues, like
united States Rubber and Central
Leather preferred, was so acute
that borrowers were paying a pre-
i III the STOCK required. AS a
result, short operators were more
cautious and did not apply pressure
as freely as could have been ex.
Pected under normal circumstances.
Naturally, the liquidation in Ameri.
can Can had a sympathetic effect
on the entire industrial list, but
offerings came out in small lots
ana were quite readily absorbed.
In some cases, however. selling
was persistent and occasioned nv
special reasons affecting individual
issues. American Sumatra common

NEW ORLEANs COTTON

NEW. ORLEANS, Oct. S.-The cotton
market turned reactionarys today, al
though in the early trading prices adj
vanced to new high level for the sea-
son. The subsequent recession carried
December, the most active trading
month, down So points from the high
OF the early trading and So points net
lower for the day. The rest Of the ac-
tive months showed net declines Of so
to So points.
At the start, with Liverpool rather
better than. due and with forecast for
unsettled weather In the central and
western belts, the market advanced to
25.56c for October, 25.s0c for Decem-
Der and 25.S1c for January by the mid
die OF the morning. This was a gain
Of IL to 20 points over yesterdays close.
The market was reactionary for the
rest of the day, although there were
sizeable rallies, and was weakest in
the late trading when October traded
down to 24.S5c, December to 24.95c, and
January to 24.9Sc, or so to So points
down from the early highs. The market
closed at the bottom.
The improvement of the morning was
due entirely to fears of a return Of
bad weather in the belt over the week.

next week. Some of the private esti-
mates issued during the day were not
as low as the trade looked for and this
started liquidation. The decline was
checked for time by the announce
ment Of rather large mill takings for
the week by Secretary Hester, 2Ss,000
bales, against $4,000 last year, but
during the afternoon the market was
compelled to absorb heavy liquidation,
shorts and hedge selling and prices
slumped off rapidly, the weakness being
helped by lower stocks and grain mar
kets.
Exports for the week were heavy, to-
falling S06,049 bales, against 2S3,00 last
year. The movement into sight totalled
,704 bales, against SOC, 495 last year.
Private reports issued during the day
made the condition 53.1 to 53.3 and the
indicated crop from 11,s0s,0OO to 1854

October declining to 26.1Sc and january

timating the crop at only 1,s4''ooO
Reports that exporters were buying

WOOL REVIEW

BOSTON, oct S.-The Commercial
Bulletin tomorrow will say:
Wool has easily maintained its
strong position during the past week,
and If anything is against the buyer,
despite the fact that London has de-
clined about per cent from the high
point of a week ago. London still is
the highest market in the world, how
ever, due to the European demand for
spot wool, for which a premium has
been paid. The foreign primary mar
kets all keep very firm and demand is
excellent in Australia, with good clear
ances constantly.
"The strongest feature of the local
market is the decided improvement T.
the demand for goods. the America1-
Wooden company having made with
drawals of worsteds as well as woolens,
all of which are re-priced on a higher
basis, " not withdrawn entirely from
sale. an event which has been regarded
as inevitable by the wool trade for
some time. The Texas situation is
strong but not materially changed,
"Mohair is in a better position and
prices are very firm"
