brokers In the listed securities the same
as are being made In tho unlisted stocks
and bonds. Tho special committees are
not hotdlnK brokers to prices as of tho
closing cote of tho Exchanges-July 30
and sales, are being made on a basis ot
three to four points, In some Instances,
below those figures, with the inquiries
and actual sules exceptionally large at
the low prices.
Beginning today, and until further no
tice dealers In Investment securities
which nro not listed on the Stock Ex
changes may trade as between them
stives. They may Issue circulars or a
list of their security offerings, but the
prices to be quoted, either In Individual
sates among brokers or to Investors, must
first be scrutinized and officially approved
by the special committee representing tho
dllferent bond houses, named some tlmo
aso to sanction proposed stock and bond
transfers.
Thi la the first time since tho exchanges
closed that such privilege has been of
llclallv granted tho Investment brokers.
I hey have been permitted, for several
weeks, to negotiate sales of their own ho
curitles to Individual Investors, subject
to the committee's approval, out ui?i
have been restrained from transfers as
bUwcen th-jmsel-.es. The Idea of the orig
inal plan was to prevent the letting down
of bars that would permit umestrictcd
transactions that might have a tendency
to Influence the very liquidation which
Investment houses everywhere and tho
banking Institutions that hold their se
curities as collateral have been trying to
stave off. And it is for this same rea
son that tho officials of the various ex
changes throughout the country are go
Ins slow on tho reopening proposition.
TALK OV REOPENING.
The gradual wiping out of tho restric
tions that have surrounded trading since
the end of July Is nn indication of the
better feeling regarding tho general flnan
clal outlook. In New York today invest
ment bankers are talking of a formal
reopening of the Exchange about Decem
ber 1. The original dute set by several
veil-Informed trndem was November 1,
but there was not taken Into consideration
In this prophecy the fact that It is very
likely the Federal Reserve Board plan
would not bo In operation by that time.
And there Is evqry reason to believe that
there will bo nothing done In the lino of
a general official resumption until these
plans shall have been completed.
Inasmuch as there Is coming duo
October 1 a largo number of American
debts owed abroad, there has been a
general stiffening in the foreign exchango
market. Prices in the last few days have
taken a decided upward tendency, espe
cially In the case of cable rater, which
are so much In demand now in view of
the Impovslbllity for the transfer of gold
to Europe by bteamshlp In time to reuch
foreign ports on the October due date.
Extension of tho British moratorium
from October 4 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 arc
excluded from the extension, pertons on
this side who had been taking advan
tage of the moratorium are obliged to
buy exchange In order to cover their ob
ligations betore October 4.
It is understood that a large volume
of finance bills had been put out during
the summer 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 Maurc
tanla, which Is the last boat to reach
London by October 4. Some of these
finance bills have been renewed, but It
U believed In some quarters that no
small pan of them will be paid off.

Banks In this city and the country
banks In this district are In a very much
stronger plstlln now than at any time
slnco tho closng If the Stock Exchangen
of thq wlrld when hostilities In' Europe
began. This Is lhdlcated by tho faat that
thero has been a let-up In tho Issuance of
emergency currency at the Sub-Treasury
In this city, particularly 'In the last three
weeks. Tho few applications which are
now coming In are principally from coun
try Institutions. Another Indication o'f
the stronger position Is tho statement of
condition of tho Phliadelp-hla . Clearing
House i members in the last three weeks
showing an Increase in reserves.
The, National Curreiicy 'Association of
Philadelphia, which has jurisdiction over
the Issuance of emergency currency and
acts on the applications of tho banks,
met dally In the tirst part of August
to act on applications as. to whether the
association should recommend the issu-
lance of currency to them anil whether
tho collateral bffercd by them, was sat
isfactory. These meetings have now
dwindled down to about two a week, and
are then called, only when some applica
tions are on hand. This week there .has
been only ono meeting, a,ml it is under
stood thero may be'" another before the
end of the week, although it Is not now
certain. '
Slnco tho first emergency currency was
taken out on August 7, approximately
seven weeks ago. thcid has been issued
at the- Subtreasury a total of $10,157,000 to
21 banks and $310,000 of this amount was
taken out .this week. This is an aver
age of Jl.451.000 per week. A majority
of the banks still have a largo amount
of it in their vaults, having taken It out
as n. precautionary f measure. To 'meet
tho demands for emergency currency
when they were first made, tho Comp
troller of the Currency sent to the local
Subtreasury $:0,OTO,000 worth and $3,SI3,
000 is still In tho vaults.
THE COLLATERAL DEPOSITS.
Against tho total of $10,157,000 issued
there has been deposited collateral with
tho Currency Association to the umount
of approximately $H,000,000; which is
nqw being held In the vaults of the
Clearing House'. Of this collateral It is
estimated that 60 per cent.- represents
commercial paper and the remaining JO
per cent, railroad and other bonds.
It Is provided In the Aldrlch-Vreeland
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 ah amount not exceeding
90 per cent, of the market value, of
State, city, town, county or municipal
bonds. Tho Secretary of tho Treasury
has reduced the percentage on State and
municipal securities to 85 per cent.
Secretary McAiloo, In accordance with
his campaign against hoarding money
and banks charging excessive Interest on
loans, has fcent a letter to the currency
associations throughout the country which
requires them to becuro Information from
applicants for emergency currency as fol
lows: Tho legal reserve held, rate of
Interest charged on renewals of time
loans, rato of Interest charged on re
newals of call loans, and the rate of In
terest charged un new time and call
loans.

Announcement by bankers that they

due January 1, 1015, 6f tho 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 as to bo Able
to meet Its notes In advance.
When William Cramp early In the last
century founded tho famous shipyard
which still bears his name, he apparently
had dreams of mighty armaments to be
constructed -and with what pride they
would carry tho American flag to all parts
of tho world and thunder forth tons of
steel In defense of It, If necessary. His,
vision came true In more than ono way,
for the Cramp-built ships wcro tho
"cracks" of trjo American Navy, and at
Manila and Santiago poured forth tholr
bolts In fulfilment of the vision.
With tho dawn of a new century, how
ever, tho successors of this great mind
realized that tho wonderful opportunity
of tho business man of America, was not
in the building of engines of destruction,
but those of development", and few peo
,plo In Philadelphia know that tho Wm.
Cramp & Sons Ship and Engine Building
Company Is ono of tho foremost design
ers o 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
made in 1S90, at Niagara Falls, where
a company known as tho Niagara Falls
Power Company began work on a hydro
electric generating station, which was to
exceed In size and importance any which,
up to that time, had been constructed,
either In tho United States or Europe.
When It Is remembered that up to this
time a turbine of greater capacity than
1000 horsepower had never been construct
ed and this effort called for 10 units of
DU00 horsepower each. It Is not surprising
that the venture created quite a little In
terest. It Is not generally known that It
was our own Philadelphia conoern which
was awarded this contract ond carried It
out to successful completion.
NIAGARA FALLS PLANT.
Success of this venture 'advertised tho
possibilities of this kind of endeavor to
the moneyed Interests throughout tho
country, and with' their usual celerity
they seized the opportunity with avidity.
Tho first Important work attempted, after
it was thoroughly demonstrated that this
was a safe field for private Investment."
was the Canadian Power Company, which
In 1M0 at Niagara Falls constructed a
'plant which, although only two units were
.planned, yet each one called for a ca
pacity of 10.00Q horsepower. The Cana
dians followed up this effort with the
construction of larger plants capable of
delivering 43,500 horsepower.
By this time investors rro 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, 10,630
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; McCall's Ferry Power Company
(later the Pennsylvania Water and Power
Company). McCall's Ferry, Pa., 81,000
horsepower; Central Colorado Power
Company, Glenwood, Col., 18,000 horse
power; Great .Western Power Company.
California, 72.000 horsepower; Washington
Power Company, Spokane, Wash.. 36,ri)
horsepower; Tennessee Power Company,
20.000 horsepower, and the Appalachian
Power Company Virginia, S6.000 horsepower.
These nre 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
tioned above are merely thi 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 n
units of 10,000 horsepower each, and
which Is the largest plant of Its kind In
the world, and the Cedar Rapids Manu
facturing and Power Company at Mou
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
ot us Kinq in u-anaaa.
TURBINES ARC BUILT HERE.
. As a matter of Information It may be
staled that So per cent, of the linpor
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 tnis roim'or machinery.
Philadelphia capitalists were amoiiH the
first to recognize this field of activity as
a probahle use on funds, and perhaps
tiw companies In which PhUdelphinns
are intciested are as, well known, if not
better, than any of tho others. Tln-lr
effoits have been usually confined to
the mvirons of our own country, where
the possibilities are almost unlimited.
Meanwhile, the Investor is becoming
more and more familiar with this form
of security, and the bankers managing
the properties expeilence very little dif
ficulty In disposing of their wares.
William Ciamp, if he could come back
to this mundane sphere now, with the
Stealer part of Europe engaged in bloody
strife, would no doubt fully expect to
find tho great plant which bears his name
busily and exclusively engaged in the
building of ships of war. What would
be hts surptUtt to rind that the activities
of the plant were largely engaged In the
coustiuctlon of mighty engines of peace
and Industry? And while the apostles of
conservation are busy uiglng the passing
of laws to restrict the use of our natural
resources, it is interesting to note that
Canada, which has been Jealous to guard
and foster Its Infant industries, was quick
t'o perceive the oppoituulty offered and
perhaps us a result Is a bit in advance
of us in this particular industry of de
veloping water power.
Needles to state It would be far better
to have our resources developed alone in
telligent lines, where the lUk is borpe by
the promoter and Investor, than to allow
power which has a might behind it which
nQ,maii can gauge to lie dormant at our
vifv doors.
