w. & J. Seligman Co. is today NOV
ing into Offices in the new Securities
Building at 729 Fifteenth street north
west. from 1409 H street. The firms
new homo is located on the second
floor Of the handsome addition to the
financial district which has just been
erected by Swartzell, Rheem & Hen
sey and the Wardman Construction
Co. Frank P. Morse, manager Of
the Washington off1ce. and his assist
ants are highly elated over their new
quarters.
Seligman & Co. Is q very old Wall
Street house, having been founded in
1S48. For a good many years the
firm did an underwriting business.
handling financing for big railroads
and other important industrial enter
prises. These securities were not sold
directly to the public, but turned over
to other financial concerns, which
marketed them. The company has
also played an important part in
the reorganizing of several rail-
roads, at the same time carrying on
an extensive international banking
business.
The company maintained an office
In Washington during the Civil War
as it handled the money for the pay
ment of the navy officers. 1t was also
active in the underwriting Of a large
war loan which the Government ne
gotiated at that time. Then for many
years the Arm had no local office. Re
Gently, however. the officers of the
company decided that in carrying on
an investment banking business they
would sell securities directly to the
public. Owing to their southern con-
nections 1t was deemed a good move
to open an Office here. and at the be-
ginning Of the present year, Frank
Morse, then with Redmond & Co., ac-
cepted the offer to become local man
ager.
Careless counters, similar to those in
use in the Federal-American National
Bank. have been installed in the new
offices. The telephone operator will be
located so that she can see instantly
whether any party called on the
phone Is at his desk. Manager Morse
considers the surroundings ideal as to
location and conveniences. There Will
be no board room, as the company
carries no margin accounts. but COM
plete bond quotations will be kept con-
stantly available.
Stockholders Know Official.
Charles p. Cooper, recently appoint
ed vice president of the American
Telephone and Telegraph Co, is wide
ly known in Washington, having been
sent here in April. 1918, to help the
Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone
Co. meet the Governments needs for
phone facilities. To meet these needs
it was necessary to bring operators
from all over the country. The tele-
phone development grew from 100000
to $1,000 instruments, and 1t was
necessary for the company to estab-
lish girls school and take over
two apartment houses in which to
house the operators. Mr.. Cooper
showed such ability as an organizer
that he was advanced to general plant
superintendent, and remained here for
some time after the war. The hun
dreds of owners Of telephone stock
in this city will be interested to know
that a man of his ability has been

ESTIMATES VARY
ON SUGAR LOSSES.
Cuban Figures in Hurricane
Toll Range From 18 to 80
Per Cent of Crop.
8y the Associated Press.

HAVANA, October 30.-Twenty
per cent of the sugar cane In the
affected area will be lost, with a pos
sible reduction of 100000 tons In raw
sugar output, by reason OF the nur-
ricane last week.
This Is the opinion Of sugar mill
engineer who returned yesterday
from a survey of the entire area
in the provinces Of Matanzas.
Havana and Pinar del Rio, struck
by the storm.
The Cuban Sugar Club placed the
loss at 25 per cent and other au-
thor1ties have varied between 18 and
80 per cent. The highest estimate
Of tonnage lost has been given as
100000 tons. but many persons be-
lieve this figure Is high.
ENGINEERS point out that the heavy
rain a few days after the hurricane
prevented much cane from living. by
washing away the soil from the roots,
in many cases the cane was lying
fiat on the ground.
Loss in sugar content will not be
known until after the grinding begins
on January l, but this Is not expect
ed to differ greatly from the cane cut
on the same field last year.
A committee Of sugar growers has
recommended to President Machado
that the coming crop be limited TO
about 4,500, 900 tons.
The planters also suggest that
world sugar conference be called 10
preyent oVerproduction.

WHEAT HAS SETBACK
IN TODAY'S DEALINGS
Selling of Corn Also Is Influenced
by Heavy Receipts-Eastern-
ers Unloading.


CHICAGO. October 30.-Wheat val
ues underwent a sharp early setback
today, and corn dropped to a new low
price record for the season. Selling
was a good deal influenced by large
receipts, both of wheat and corn.
Starting unchanged TO Il cent off.
wheat rallied little and then headed
down grade, falling cents a bushel
in some cases. Corn opened uncha nged
10 y cent down and soon suf1D ID a
general decline. Oats were easy. pro-
visions irregular.
A rush of selling that appeared to
come largely from Eastern sources
found the wheat market without any
aggressive support soon after the
opening today. Much of the selling
at that stage was concentrated on
the May delivery of wheat. A pre-
valent opinion was that some big
eastern holders were letting go Of
their wheat.
Corn hit the lowest price yet on the
new crop by touching 74as for Decem-
her. Unlike yesterday. however, the
corn market displayed less relative
weakness than wheat, and met with
fair buying on the downturns. To-
days receipts of corn here amounted
to $50 carloads as against 100 cars
q year ago.

made a high official of the company.
Contrary to the expectations of
most economists, the development Of
the electric refrigeration industry has
not interfered with the growth Of the
general ice business. An analysis of
20 leading ice companies just prepared
by Goddard & Co., Inc, shows that
the aggregate net earnings of these
companies available for interest, divi-
dends and taxes for the year ended
December 81, 1925, amounted to $14,-
396,687. This compares with $780,
gil for 1924. a gain of 56.6 per cent.
Gross earnings in 1925 were $76.661,-
598. as contrasted with $71,738, ,5S1 the
year before, which would indicate
that the gain in net was due in large
measure to the efficiencies in opera
ton. as no important increases in ice
prices were made last year.
Redmond Participates in Loan.
Another foreign religious loan-the
third to be arranged with American
bankers by religious denominations In
Germany-will shortly be offered In
this market, it was learned yesterday.
This time, however, the financing is
on behalf Of Protestant 0argely Lu-
.heran) institutions in Germany instead
Of Catholic organizations, as was the
case in the previous financing. Howe,
Snow & Bertles, Inc: Redmond & Co.
and Ames, Emerich & Co. are heading
a syndicate which has just purchased
a new issue of $2,500.000 Protestant
Church in Germany Welfare Institu-
tions per cent 20-year secured sink
ing fund gold bonds.
Monetary Situation Improves.
Moodys Weekly Review says, in
part:
THE monetary situation continues
to improve and the prospects Of
credit imitation which existed in Au-
gust have practically disappeared.
During October money rates usually
move distinctly upward, but this time
they moved slightly downward. The
same credit improvement Is displayed
by bank loans"

indicated world production for this
