Brokers' Comment

NEW YORK, October Is. Stock
market commentators today pointed out
that prices had lost about so per cent
Of their gain from october levels,
which constitutes a technical reaction.
Although much Of the outside news,
especially from abroad, Is unfavorable,
many chose to think the market would
meet support.
E. F. Hutton & Co.-With every news
development and statistical sign unen-
couraging, the burden of proof that
sentiment has been changed sufficiently
to hold the market above the October
low rests upon the constructivists.
We have an idea that this proof will
be forthcoming.
Paine, Webber g. Co.-Whether or
not current level marks the end of q
normal secondary reaction Is the i'm
portant question now from a trading
standpoint. If it does, believe ample
evidence will appear In market itself,
in way Of dizziness and narrow oscilla-
tons in pivotal stocks for one to three
days.
Jackson Bros, Boesel & Co.-Unless
support appears in the bond market in
the very near future, drifting to lower
levels in the stock market looms as a
logical expectation. Organized support
for the bond market, on the other hand,
would find logical counterpart In a
rallying stock market
Hornblower g. Weeks.-We feel at
this level the market has consolidated
its recent advance and expressed its
nervousness over foreign developments
Unless the Bruening government is
turned out by the German Parliament
and an actual political crisis brought
into being. we feel that the market is
probably In a position to rally from
these levels.
Redmond & Co.-There is reason to
hope that when the new National Credit
Corporation starts to function much OF
the pressure of recent liquidation will
be relieved. However, we continue to
recommend an extremely cautious
trading and investment policy for the
next week, at least, protecting long
commitments with stops around the re-
cent record lows. We feel, however
that If the current weeks news is favor
able and the Hoover-Laval conference
later in the month turns out satisfac-
torily, the groundwork may be laid fol
a general recovery in prices later in the
year.

would still be in an uncomfortable posi-
ton but very much better off than it Is
today, he said
Asked by stakeholder if the question
was taken up collectively by all railroads
If something might not be done, Mr..
Harrison said perhaps that is being
done"
Due to existing contracts, he said. the
road could net reduce wages and no
modification of these contracts could
be made by an individual railroad.
He explained that he had seen several
depreSsions, but expenses were in no
case cut as extensively 'aS at present.
He further pointed out that the road
had not allowed its tracks or roadbed to
go to pieces and that this was in good
condition. However, some rolling stock
which had been laid aside has dete-
riorated. The road is maintaining its
share of through traffic; there is a
falling off in local tarffic, he said
In regard to trucks and buses Mr..
Harrison explained that the principal
loss to the road was due to privately
owned automobiles and not to the bus.
He declared, however, that the trucks
offer serious menace to railroads. II
trucks were regulated by Congress they
would take porticn of the roads bust
ness, but not as much as at present
The Southern had made a study Of
five or six large bus lines and found
none Of them making money, Mr.. Har-
rison stated.
Retiring directors were reelected.

SPECULATIVE BOND
ISSUES ARE HIGHER
lnduStriaIs and Junior Public
Utilities Send Market Up
Ward-RaiIS Gain.
BY r. H. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October l5-Though
high-grade domestic issues were still
heavy, owing to the prospect of a
higher rediscount rate and tighter
money market quotations, today's bond
market was chiefly notable for a strong
upswing in speculative issues.
In so far as industrial and junior
public utilities were concerned, the i'm
provement was directly traceable to q
higher range Of stock prices, but rail-
road descriptions reflected reports from
washington that an announcement Of
a constructive nature, having to do
With railroad bonds, was imminent
opening declines in second and third
grade rail bonds were quickly turned
into net gains of 2 to 4 points.
The market was heavy at the start
because OF tighter time money condi-
lions and for a time speculative issues
oecIned in the face of a strong stock
market. Then q report came from
Washington that administration on
Gals" had indicated that the White
House would soon make an announce
ment regarding its study of rail bonds.
wall Street took 1t that something spe-
CHIC along the line Of the $500 600, 900
revolving fund for bank credits would
be suggested
Southern Railway 61ks, off points In
early trading, recovered the loss and
advanced to net gain of about 2
points. Missouri-Pacific IS performed
In similar manner. MisSouri-Pacific
general Is rose more than 3 points and
the 512s gained about 7 points. Sharp
gains occurred in Allegheny IS, Atchison
convertible AIS, st. Paul S. Erie SIS,
Illinois Central 4As, Frisco prior lien
As, Frisco AIS and virtually all bonds
OF the same classification.
The market was heavy at the opening
Foreign issues were UNCHANGED or
fractionally lower, with no very wide
losses anywhere. The market was in
cilned to take an optimistic view of the
situation and looked for some construc-
tive announcement from Premier Laval
OF France when he speaks over the radio
today, although generally 1t was felt
that Laval would be as restricted in his
statement on the international situation
as would President Hoover pending
their conversations later in the month.
Young plan 51as, French rs, British
5l2s and Belgian IS were unchanged.
In the domestic list the rails were still
under pressure Erie SIS, Missouri
Pacific SIS and New York, Westchester
& Boston first 4l2s had initial losses
Prime bonds were inactive.

EXPORTS OF HIDES
SHOW BIG INCREASE
Skin Sales Abroad Also Sharply
Higher, Says Commerce De-
partment Report.

During the first half of 1891 exports
of hides and skins from the United
States totaled 22,994, 148 pounds as COM
pared with 17,479,219 pounds in the
1880 period. Because of lower world
prices the value was smaller, amounting
to $2,031 ,482 in comparison with 3d.
766,581 in the first half of 1890.
In announcing this marked increase
in the volume of American hide and
skin exports, the Commerce Department
said that more leather is manufactured
in the United States than in any other
country, and 'our tanners are generally
credited with producing at least 80 per
cent of the total worlds output"
Commenting on this industry, the de-
partment said further:
with this large production, the raw
hide and skin requirements of the
United States are naturally larger than
those Of any other country. It is for
this reason that the exports of these
raw materials from this country in the
past have been rather small, but owing
to existing conditions a marked in
crease is noted in such foreign sales
during the first six months Of the pres
ent year. The larger part Of the hide
and skin exports are of the country
type, and nearly all Of the packer hides
and skins are used locally. The aver
age value OF the raw hides and skins
sold abroad during the first half OF
1880 amounted to more than Is cents a
pound, while for the present year this
value was less than 9 cents the pound
Canada Is the largest purchaser OF
the cattle hides exported from this
country, with important quantities also
going to Japan and European countries
Statistics show that the average value
Of the cattle hides exported from this
country during the first half of last
year was slightly more than Is cents a
pound, as compared with less than &
cents pound in the similar period OF
the present year.
This country generally depends or
foreign sources for about 80 per cent
Of the calf and kip skins tanned, but
in the present year there has been Q
noticeable decline in the imports, a.
well as the exports. This Is an indica.
ton that there has been a larger con.
sumption of the domestic calf and kir
skins by local tanners during the pres.
ent year. Exports of calf and kip skin,
from this country in the first half Of
the present year amounted to but g.
655,455 pounds, as compared with f.
277,4l4 pounds shipped In the similar
period of the previous year"

ALLEGATION OF COAL
SHIPMENTS ANAL ZED
By the Associated Press.

A study by the National Coal Asso-
citation of the proposal of the Eastern
railroads to consolidate into four sys-
TENS indicates that approximately two
thirds of the coal shipped via rail
would be handled from mines located
Of these systems.
Using 1929 bituminous coal ship
ments for the purpose of determining
the quantity shipped by carrier on each
system, 1t was found the four would
haul approximately 3o8,577, 900 tons an
nually.
The Pennsylvania, under the alloca-
ton, would have a quota Of 100 847, 900
tons, with the G. & O.-Nickel Plate
System hauling 97,792,O00 tons. The
Baltimore & Ohio would get so, 107, 900
tons and the New York Central the re-
naming 1881 900 tons.
There are few small lines not allo-
Gated in the above comparison, but the
tonnage is not substantial, the associa-
ton says. In some instances there are
lines that are assigned to more than one
system in the consolidation. In such
cases the tonnage produced on those
has been divided equally among the
systems to which the lines are assigned
