MAKIMBOND SALES
permitted Now to Trade
Among Themselves Ex
change Reopening Plans
Depend .on Reserve Bank
Operation.
Coincident with the l'lfllrlg today of
certain restrictions' which have pre
vented a broader scale 'of .trading In the
listed and unlisted securities, comes
word from bond salesmen on the street
that they aro finding Individual In
vestors In a very roceptlvo mood and
willing to listen to reason. There- ap
pears to bo a general feeling of con
fidence In the ability of the financial
situation to readjust Itself, and the re-(
suit has beon a brisk demand for
securities of the highest grade, partic
ularly the utilities.
Success of the Now York city note
Issue of $100,000,000 has Inspired greater
confidence and there Is a. brisk demand
locally and In Now York for the tjiree
vear notes, duo In 1917. Prices today
were boosted to 102. and even at this
flciire, wnicn repiHii .s !"
basis, the notes were hard to get.
The Investment bankers aro reporting
business generally good-so much so, In
Met. that there Is talk of having the
stock Exchange committee lift the ban to
the extent of permitting trades among
brokers In tho listed securities the same
as are being made In tho unlisted stocks
and bonds. The special committees are
nut holding brokers to prices at, of tho
closing fate of the Exchanges-July 30
and sales, are being mado on a basis of
llireu to four points, in some instances,
below those figures, with the inquiries
and actual sale3 exceptionally largo at
the low prices.
Beginning toUay, and until further no
tice, dealers In Investment securities
which mo not .listed on the Stock Ex-,
changes may trado as between them
selves. They may Issue circulars or a
lltt of their security offerings, but the
prices to be quoted, cither in Individual
..I., nmrinir hrnkora or to Investors, must
first bo scrutinized and officially approved,
by the special committee representing the
dllferent bond houses, named some time
ago to sanction proposed stock and bond
transfers,
n.ia ia ho first limn rIuco the exchanges
closed that such privilege has beeri of
ficially granted tho Investment brokers,
'ihey have ben permitted,, for bovcral
weeics, to negotiate sales of their own se
curities to Individual investors, subject
to the committee's approval, but they
have been restrained from transfers as
between t!winsels. Tho Idea of tho orig
inal plan was to prevent tho letting down
of bars that would permit unrestricted
transactions that might have a tendency
to influence the very liquidation which
Investment houses everywhere and the
banking Institutions that hold their se-,
curltles as collateral have been trying to
stave off. And it Is for this same rea
sun that tho officials of the various ex
changes throughout tho country are go
Ins slow on the reopening proposition.
TALK OF REOPENING.
The gradual wiping out of the restric
tions ihat have surrounded trading since
the end of July Is an Indication of tho
better feeling regarding the general finan
cial outlook. In New York today invest
ment bankers are talking of a formal
reopening of the Exchange about Decem
ber 1. The original date set by several
w ell-Informed tradera was November 1,
but there was not taken Into consideration
In this prophecy the fact that It is very
likely tho Federal Reserve Board plan
would not be In operation by that time.
And there Is every reason to believe that
there will be nothing done in the line of
a general official resumption until these
plans shall have been completed.
Inasmuch as there . Is coming dua
Octobtr 1 a large number of American
debts owed abioad, there has been a
general stiffening In the foreign exchange
market. Trices In the last few days have
taken a decided upward tendency, espe
cially In the case of cable rates, which
are so much In demand now In view of
the Impossibility for the transfer of gold
to Europo by steamship in time to reach
foreign ports on the October duo date.
Extension of the British moratorium
from October i to November 4 does not
apply to bills, of exchange other than
checks or bills on demand. On account
of the fact that these obligations aro
excluded from the extension, persons on
this side who had been taking advan
tage of the moratorium are obliged to
buy exchange In order to cover their ob
ligations berore October 1-
It Is understood that a large volume
of finance bills had been put out during
the 6ummer months, bankers expecting
to cover these bills with grain and cot
ton exchange at low rates, but their
maturities have been extended from time
to time under the moratorium. Now that
settlements must be made by October 4.
there was also a good Inquiry for de
mand bills on London for the Mauro
tanla. which Is the last boat to reach
London by October 4,. Some of theso
finance bills have been renewed, but It
la believed In some quarters that no
small part of them will be paid off.

stronger plstlln now than kt any timp
since tho closng If the Stock Exchanger!
of the' wlrld when hostilities In Europe
begoill This Is indicated by tho faat that
there hut been a let-up In tho Issuance of
emergency currency at tho Sub-Treasury
In this city, particularly In tho last ttuee
weeks. Tho few applications, which are
now coming in ore principally from coun
try Institutions. Another Indication of
tho stronger position is tho statement of
condition of tho Philadelphia Clearing
House members in the last throe weeks
showing an increase In rcoerves.
The National Currency Association of
Philadelphia, which has Jurisdiction over
trie Issuance of emergency currency and
acts on tho applications of tho banks,
met dally In the lirst part of August
to act on applications as -to whether the
association should recommend tho Issu
ance of currency to thorn and whether
tho collateral' offered by them was sat
isfactory. These meetings have now
dwindled down to about two a week, and
arc then called only when some applica
tions are on hand. This week there ha3
been only one meeting, and it Is under
stood there may b'e another before tho
end of tho week, although It is not now
certain.
Since tho first emergency currency was
taken out on August 7. approximately
soven weeks ago, there has been Issued
at tho Subtreasury a total of 10.1S7.000 to
21 banks and $319,000 of this amount wa3
taken out this week. This Is an aver
ugo of Jl.451,000 per week. A majority
of tho banks still have a largo amount
of It In their vaults, having taken it out
as a precautionary measure. To meet
tho clcmand3 for emergency currency
when they were llrst made, the Comp
ti oiler of tho Currency sent to the local
Subtreasury $,000.000 worth and ?D,S13,
000 Is still In the vaults.
THE COLLATERAL DEPOSITS.
Against the total of $10,157,000 issued
there has been deposited collateral with
the Currency Association to the amount
of approximately $14,000,000. which Is
now being lield' In the vaults of the
Clearing House. Of this collateral It ia
estimated that 60 per cent, represents
commercial paper and the remaining 40
per cent, railroad and other bonds.
It is provided in the Aldrlch-Vrceland
law that currency can be Issued to an
amount not exceeding 75 per cent, ot
'the cash value of commercial paper de
posited and to an amount not exceeding
per cent, of the market value of
State, city, town, county or municipal
bonds. The Secretary of the Treasury
has reduced the percentage on State and
municipal securities to S3 per cent.
Secretary JleAdoo, In accordance with
his campaign against hoarding money
and banks charging excessive Interest on
loans, has sent a letter to the. currency
associations throughout tho country which
rejuiies them to secure information from
applicants for emergency currency an fol

Announcement by bankers that Ihey
would pay In ndvance the $140,000 notes
due January 1, 1915, of the William Cramp
& Sons Ship and Engine Building Com'
pany has attracted attention to the
affairs of this company, which have been
handled In such a manner a to be able
to meet lt notes In advance. '
When William Cramp early In the last
century founded tho famous shipyard
which etlll bears his name, ho apparently
had dreams of mighty armaments ttf be
constructed and with, what pride they
would cany tho American flag to all parts
of the world and thunder forth tons of
steel In defense of It, If necessary. His
vision came true In more than one- way,
for tho Cramp-built ships were the
"cracks" of tho American Navy, and at
Manila and Santiago poured forth their
bolts In fulfilment of the. vision.
With tho dawn of a new century, how
over, the successors of this great mind
realized that the wonderful opportunity
of tho business man of America, was not
In tho building of engines ot destruction,
but those of development; and few pco
plo In Philadelphia know that the Wm.
Cramp & Sons Ship and Engine Building
Company Is one of tho foremost design
ers of hydraulic turbines for the develop
ment of water power In the world an
Industry which Is being exploited by the
comparatively newer form of Investment
known as Public Utility.
The first effort of private enterprise to
develop the water power of this country
to make It a salable commodity was
mado In 1S0O, at Niagara Falls, where
a company known as tho Niagara Falls
Power Company began work on a hydro
electric seneratlng station, which was to
exceed In size and Importance any which,
up to that tlmo, had Been constructed,
either in the United States or Europe.
When It Is remembered that up to this
tlmo a turblno of greater capacity than
1000 horsepower had never been construct
ed and this effort called for 10 units of
EOOO horsepower each. It Is not surprising
that the venture created quite a little in
terest. It Is not generally knowp that It
was our own Philadelphia concern which
was awarded this contract and carried It
out to successful completion.
NIAGARA FALLS PLANT.
Success of this venture advertised the
possibilities of this kind of endeavor to
the moneyed Interests throughout the
country, and with their usual celerity
thoy seized the opportunity with avidity.
The first Important work attempted, after
it was thoroughly demonstrated tnat thl3
was a safe field for private Investment,
was the Canadian Power Company, which
In 1900 at Niagara FallB constructed a
plant which, although only two units were
planned, yet each one called for a ca
pacity of 10,000 horsepower. The Cana
dians followed up this effort with the
construction of larger plants capable of
delivering 13,500 horsepower.
By this time Investors fVro quite fa
miliar with this form of security, and
dealers had no hesitancy In offering them,
and, as a result, water power sites
throughout this country and Canada were
eagerly sought.
The most Important of these have been
the Huronlan Company, Ontario, 10,650
horsepower; West Kootenay Power and
Light Company, British Columbia, 16,000
horsepower; Toronto Power Company.
52,000 horsepower; St. Lawrence River
Power Company, New. York, 21,000 horse
power; McOill's Ferry Power Company
(later the Pennsylvania Water and Power
Company), McCall's Ferry, Pa., 81,000
nnrsepower; central Colorado Power
Company, Glenwood, Col., 18,000 horse
power; Great Western Power Company.
California, 7.',000 horsepower; Washington
Power Company. Spokane, Wash., 3tS,rW)
horsepower; Tennessee Power Company,
20,000 horsepower, and the Appalachian
Power Company Virginia. 35,000 horse
power. These are Just a few of a great many
corporations which extend from Alaska
to Porto Rico and from New York to
British Columbia, and the figures men
tinned ahovo are merely tho Initial In
stallations. Since that time a great many
of them have doubled their capacity.
The most recent developments have
been the Mississippi River Power Com
pany at Keokuk. Iowa, which has IS
units of 10,1) horsepower each, and
which Is the largest plant of Its kind in
the world, and the Cedar Rapids Manu
facturing and Power Comnanv at Mon.
treal, which has nine units capable of
delivering 10,800 horsepower each, which
Is the largest turbine in the world, this
company being the greatest development
of Its kind In Canada.
TURBINES ARE BUILT HERE.
As a matter of Information It may be
stated that SO per cent, of the Impor
tant turbines Installed by the various
companies on this continent were con
structed by the I. P. Morris Company,
which is the department of Cramps that
constructs this form of machinery.
Philadelphia capitalists were among the
first to recognize this field of activity as
a probable use on funds, and perhaps
tho companies In which Phladelphians
are interested are ns well known, if not
better, than any of the others. Their
effort.-, have been usually confined to
the environs of our own country, where
the possibilities are almost unlimited.
Meat. while, the investor is becoming
more and moie familiar with this torm
of security, and the bankers managing
the properties experience very little dif
ficulty In disposing of their wares.
William Cramp, if he iould come back
to this mundane sphere now, with the
greater part of Europe engaged In bloody
strife, would no doubt fully expect to
find the great plant which bears his name
busily and exclusively engaged in the
building of ships uf war. What would
be his surprise to rind that the activities
of tho plant were largely engaged In the
construction of mighty engines of peace
and Industry? And whllo the apostles of
conservation are busy uiglng the passing
of laws to restrict the use of our natural
resources, tt Is Interesting to note that
Canada, which has been Jealous to guard
and foster Its Infant industries, was quick
to perceive the opportunity offered and
perhaps as a result is a bit in advance
eloping water power.
Needless to state it would be far better
to have our resource develop! aloiig in
telligent lines, where the risk Is borne bj
the promoter and Investor., than to allow
powej which has a. might behind It which
no man can gauge to He d"rmam at our
'fery doors.
