LISTS NEW
OIL BENEFITS

Three important developments
during the past week have placed
the oil industry in the most IA
vorable position it has occupied
since 1927 when the Seminole
Field came in, according to the
current number of the T. s. Hose
petroleum review, which states:
'Tt would appear that the in
dustry has put its house in Or
der and that an increase in the
price of crude of so cents a bar
rel may be anticipated in the
not far distant future"
The three developments listed
are, in the order of their impor-
tance:
Government regulation govern
ing the reduction of surplus stocks
of gasoline without interfering
with the production of crude.
Staying of the decision of Judge
Bryant granting an injunction
against Federal oil enforcement
officers by the Federal Circuit
Court of Appeals at New Orleans.
Stepping into the breach Gre
ated by the lack of Federal au-
thority by the State of Texas Rail
road Commission which "over-
night changed from an organiza-
ton of questionable efficiency to
a highly efficient regulatory body
and cut down the supply of hot
oil to a minimum"
The benefits to the industr since
last September under the regula-
tion of the oil administrator, Har-
old L. IckeS, and his assistant,
James A. Moffett, are we'll known
in petroleum and financial circles,
says the review.

WHITNEY WINS
FIGHT To RULE
EXCHANGE
Bx international News Service


The opposition to the present
management Of the New York
Stock Exchange apparently was
quashed with denomination Of
Richard Whitney for president for
the third successive term as War
rem B. Nash was renominated for
treasurer and E. H. Simmons for
trustee of the gratuity committee.
Conservatives to Govern
The nomination to the govern
ment committee of Maurice L.
Farrell, Of F.. s. Smithers Co.;
Laurence M. Marks, of L. M.
Marks & Co., and Roger D. Mel
lick, of Carlisle & Mellick & Co.,
also served to indicate that the
conservatives would continue to
rule the exchange.
Mr.. Farrell formerly was editor
of the Wall Street Journal and
his firm Is understood to be
aligned with the conservative ele-
ment of the "Street." Mr.. Marks
was formerly with Lee, HlgglnSon
g. Co. and was president Of the
Bond Club, while M. Mel''ck
succeeds his partner Jay F. Car
Isle on the board.
Opposition Unlikely
The retiring members of the
governing committee besides Mr..
Carlisle are James C.. Auchin-
Gloss, head Of the Better Business
Bureau, and George U. Harris. of
Harris, Upham & Co., president
of the Association of Stock Ex-
change Firms.
The opposition element can
still nominate a candidate or a
full slate if it can obtain 40 to
100 names to a petition. Such a
move. though, is considered highly
improbable.

EQUIPMENT

Delaware, Lackawanna &
Western Railroad has placed or
ders for approximately $4,000, 900
of new equipment.
Twenty locomotives we're or
dered from American Locomotive
Company. $50 steel hopper cars

Company, $50 hopper cars from
the Mayor Car Company, two

Deliveries will begin some time

from American Locomotive will
be constructed at the company'S

j. s. AID RAISING
FARM INCOME

Benefit payments had been
made by the AAA up to March
l to 1,774,431 farmers in almost
every State of the country. Thus
far, cotton growers have received
the most, with $112,349,176, while
$50, ,635,216 has been paid on &C
count of the wheat restriction
program and $l,586,156 on to-
bacco.
These payments are part of
the program in which more than
$1,000, ,00O, 900 may have been dis
tributed to producers by the end
of the current year.
Agricultural cash income dur
ing the 1884 season, therefore,
will be materially increased over
that of the past several years,
irrespective of crop prospects, it
Is pointed out by the Standard
Statistics Company, of New York.
Moreover, as payments are now
being received at a season when
farm purchasing power usually is
at low ebb, farmers are enabled
to provide for household and op-
Grating needs that normally would
be deferred until harvest returns.

for months.
Mr.. Eastman believes that re.

MARKET TREND.

By WALL STREET SPECTATOR

BY WALL STREET SPECTATOR
NEW YORK, April 10 0.N.S0.
The market just keeps on mud
ding along despite all the kind
things said about it in the last
couple of weeks.
This is bringing sour faces
downtown as the impatient
traders are getting worn out.
The new labor troubles in the
motor industry are adding some
unSettlement, though nothing like
the worries of last months.
There will be more than usual
interest in the U. S. Steel direc-
tors meeting this month.
Myron c. Taylor is responsible,
since at the annual meeting he
left no doubts about his convic-
tion that prosperity was on the
way. To bear this out, the steel
board should make a start on
putting the preferred back on a
81 basis and perhaps pay off
some of the accumulations. The
corporation has the cash in the
till, added to which is the fact
operations seem to have turned
upward again.
We hear Bill Danforth is back
in Boston after wintering in the
South. And, tits added, rarln' to
see an active market.
