SHORTAGE OF COFFEE
SEEN BY IMPORTERS
Embargo at Santos Has Resulted
in Sharp Restriction
of Supply.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, September 26.-Local
coffee importers and roasters predict a
serious shortage of coffee by the first
of the month unless something is done
to lift the embargo on the port Of
Santos.
While there is enough coffee to sup
ply three-year demand stored in the
interior of Sac Paulo, they say, hardly
a bag has been shipped since the Bra
lillian navy blockaded Santos early in
July.
. Local stocks are reported very low,
and the only available supply is in New
York City. tied up tightly by contract
between the Brazilian government and
the United States Wheat Sterilization
Board. under which the exchange OF
some of our surplus wheat was made
for some of Brazil's surplus coffee.
Under this contract only 81 500 bags
can be released each month to the
coffee merchants of the United States.
Proposals of the Sterilization Board to
increase the monthly release have been
met with the demand for half the
profits realized by the board of the
surplus coffee released.
Early in July the price of Santos
coffee here was lOl2 cents a pound
Today it is 141a cents. BY October l,
when the next 62,50O bags will be re-
leased, local merchants believe that it
will be 16 cents or above; that is, un-
less the revolution in Sac Paulo is set
tied one way or another and the Sac
Paulan coffee released.

STOCKS ARE LOWER

Traders Await More Evidence

Business,
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES,

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September 26.-A dull
and sagging stock market in the first
half of today's session developed in the
last hour into an active and declining
one. Losses at the close ran from to
points in the leaders and In a few
cases more than this.
Probably the selling was almost en-
tlrely professional and represented dis
appointment at the inability of the
various groups which had accumulated
stocks to distribute them.
II was the business situation on
wnlcn attention was concentrated. So
lar, the revival has been little more
tnan seasonal. While much depends on
which particular index is selected in
general 1t Will be found that the curve
70 date IS very similar to that of a wear
ago and to that of 1880. In each case
there was a sharp rise in early Sep
tember, followed by renewal of the
decline. The critical point this year
is at hand.
Therefore the market today was in
waiting mood. The steel news was
iniIoiy encouraging. The showing of
car loadlngS Saturday was as good as
developments, as well as the agree
ment on railway consolidation. had
been discounted last week. The rails
were heavy in the morning. Profit
taking and realizing went on, not in
any great volume but sufficient to
carry prices down a point or two
Lackawanna, New York Central, Atchi-
son, Pennsylvania and Union Pacific
all yielded on this selling.
For time just after the opening
United States Steel common and pre-
ferred were comparatively strong, but
they reacted subsequently. j. I. Case
and International Harvester were un-
able to make progress in the absence
OF any strength in the wheat market,
on which the bull contingent in the
Street pins so much hope.
Allied Chemical opened higher and
then came down again. Motor shares
were all lower after an early display of
strength. and IN the second hour there
ives considerable pressure against Amer
ican Telephone.
The oils were adversely affected by
the price situation. Atlantic Refining
reduced prices for gasoline throughout
Pennsylvania, and Standard OIL of
Pennsylvania did the same. These cuts
followed the action of Standard of New
Jersey last week

Chaplin Heads Timber Board.

BY the Associated Press.
The new Secretary of Commerce Roy
D. Chaplin will succeed to the chair
manship of the United States Timber
Conservation Board This new assign
ment was one of the first given the
Commerce Secretary.
Although the timber board recently
issued comprehensive series OF recon-
mendations, President Hoover took note
of the fact that there remains consid-
cradle work yet to be done. Appointed
a year and a half ago to inquire into
obstacles TO economic balance in Tire
forest products industry, the board in
its report a month ago pointed to fun
damental factors that must be adjusted
before permanent economic recovery
can be assured. Existing systems of
taxation which force liquidation of
standing timber on an unwanting mar
ket were emphasized as the most dis
turbing factor. Twenty recommended
tions, dealing largely with marketing,
forest management, and sound manage
ment of public forests, were included in
its report.
The board has since made public a
recommendation of It's Lumber Survey
Committee calling fc-' a further reduc-
tion of existing humber stocks by B.
750,000,00G feet as a rls3ns OF balanc-
Ing supply to greatly deprecated

yers of Waterbury in commenting upon the fact that 220 motions have been filed in court since the receivership was started, but not one contest materialized over any one of the motions. He thought it a fine gesture on local lawyers part.
 Judge Brown reserved decision on the question as to whether the receiver should take pass books given as collateral for loans, In Keeping with a recent supreme court decision. These books &C., cording to MT Reeves, are allowed to be taken when the notes mature and apply the amount of debt against the balance listed on the book. Attorney J. Joseph Smith suggested that the court consider whether the setting off of these debts should be done at once,- or only when dividends are declared.
 Permission to sell certain se- curities totaling about $40.000 was granted. MT Reeves explained that the present market value on these securities is above the figure set by the appraisers, and in some cases, greater than the Merchants Trust Co paid for them.
