INVESTORS' BUYING
CAUSED INCREASED
:. ACTIVITY IN N. Y.
inquiry Assumes Large Pro
portions Bonds, Short
term Notes and Public
Utilities in Demand.
NEW yoniC, Dec. 3. Increased nc
llvlty wns Bhown nil through the Wall
street district today. A new feature wns
Hint nearly nil the buying of bonds on
the Stock Kxchnnse floor, short-term
note unit public utilities was for Invest
ment account.
The Investment demand has assumed
the largfl proportions. Short-term note
dealers arc Hooded with buying orders
from numerous sources, and the dividend
paying public utilities nre In brisk de
mand at steadily ndvnnclntr prices.
It Is hard to execute buying orders, bow
ever, as holders refuse to part with their
holdings, even at substantial advances In
bids. An Instance Is the fact that St.
Joseph's Heat and Power notes, offered by
a Philadelphia Arm at 0V4. are now bid
for at the offering price.
That spirit of activity which was a
feature of the Broad street curb trading
reflected In vigorous advances In high and
low priced mining shares, has ended for
the time at least and the same diminished
Interest In curb Industrials Is noted. No
one scemi to care whether United Profit
Sharing Increases Its capitalization or not
or whether Its prlco Is marked up or
marked down. The same indifference Is
shown to promises of good developments
In United Cigar Stores or Hlker-lIcgcman.
hi the bond trading the feature
was Rock Island refunding 4s, which
gained a piflnt during the morning
trading to 6655, compared with 63V4
at the opening. The (advanco In the
latter was probably due to the company's
October earnings' statement, which was
favorable. While the net earnings for
the month were J276.779 below the same
month of the previous year, the net
earnings for tho first four months of the
fiscal year showed an advance of $207,308
over the same period of last year.
Fractional gains were made In virtually
ell bonds sold during tho morning ses
sion. Southern Pacific convertible Es,
which sold heavily In yesterday's trading,
were sold tcUay at last night's closing
price, 9IW. the transactions not being
large.
Money on call was freely olYertd nt
ti per cent, and Just beforo noon the
quotation was lowered to 4 per cent.
There was an active loan crowd on the
floor. Steel common loaned at 4Hs per cent,
and New York Central and United States
Bte'el preferred at 3M, per cent.
The Bank of Kngland statement shows
a. reserve decrease or i-i.-uo.uuu. anu mo
reserve Is now 23.90 per cent., against
31.60 per cent. laBt week.
Sterling exchange was dull, 4.S9U
87U. Strength In relchsmarks Is attrlb
87 . Strength In HelclismarKs Is attrib
uted to Bales of bonds hero for account
of Germany.
IMPROVING TENDENCY
IN PHILADELPHIA STOCKS
Storage Battery In Strong Demand.
Limit on Baldwin Raised.
There, -was a distinct show of strength
to the dealings In the Philadelphia mar
ket this morning. Leading the Improve
ment was Electric Storage Battery, which
extended yesterday's advance a full point
to 47',4. Ths fact that the stock carries a
dividend to come off shortly was a stim
ulating Influence. So also was the knowl
edge that the company is very busy Just
now supplying batteries both for home
an dforelgn consumption. Lehigh Navi
gation trust certificates moved up half
a dollar, and there was also good de
mand by Investors for United Gas Im
provement, Union Traction and Reading.
On the other hand, some slight liquida
tion accurred In Pennsylvania, Philadel
phia Electric ruled steady around 13,
despite arguments over rates before the
Public Service Commission. American
Railways preferred sold at 9, down 3
points frdm the last previous quotation,
while Tonopah Belmont rose to 4T1 In tho
afternoon.
A curious development today was the
raising of the limit on Baldwin Locomo
tive preferred from 101, where It has
stood for some time, to 105. There has
been quite a little odd-lot dealing in the
shares at the lower limit, and. in fact,
they changed hands today at 101 before
tho new ruling: was promulgated.
Baldwin common fell from 43 to 41 on a
small transaction. The feature of the
trading in bonds was the sale of a, block
of J20.O0O Philadelphia Electric 4s at 73,
an advanco of H upolnt. Bond dealings
were quite active on change as well as
over the counter, and for most part
prices ruled firm. American Gaa and
Electric 5a advanced to St,
Inquiry among the bond houses disclosed
the fact that while new issues were being
subscribed for to a moderate extent, there
were, still a number of unsold portions of
old Issues still to be distributed. This is
aid to be particularly true of long-term
bonds. It bas been estimated that some
thins like 1300.000,000 of new financing will
have to be taken care of in JS1B, but the
theory Is held that restoration of confl
dence, which has been growing; rapidly
fll la,te, and general improvement In busi
ness conditions will facilitate the notation
of this heavy volume of securities. On the
-whole, local bond men are decidedly op
timistic, but are not letting their enthu
siasm carry them away, as can be ab-.
iif va by the terms upon which they 4ook
(hif, Ljiko Shore 6 per sent notes.

INTERLOCKING DIRECTORS
Acting Treasury Solicitor Decides
They May Servo Out Terms.
WASHINGTON, Dec, -Interlocking
directors In banks may setvo out their
terms, despite the prohibition against In
terlocking directorates In tha Clayton
anti-trust law, P. A. Iteeve, Acting
Solicitor of tha Treasury, today decided.
Hobert W. Webb, vlco president of the
Minneapolis Trust Company, of Minneap
olis, Is tho director whose service wns
In question.
"I am of 'the opinion that a director
of the said trust company Is eligible to
servo ns a director of a nntlonal bank
not having common ownership of stock
until tho expiration of two years after
tho npprovnl of this net the Clayton law
and ho Is eligible to further servo for
such time thereafter as constituted tho
unexpticd part of one year from tho date
of election," sayB Solicitor Iteeve.
Solicitor Iteeve says ho Interprets the
Intention of Congress to bo not to bring
about "sudden and Inconvenient changes,"
nnd that "ns to bnnks whose deposits,
capital, surplus, etc.', aggtegata more
than J5,000,000 nnd ns to all bnnks In
Cities of over 200,000 population, tho pro
visions as to time of tho act taking ef
fect, mutual savings bnnks, common
stock ownership nnd Federal reserve
banks, should apply alike."

WALNUT STRUCT VALUES AID.
The sharp advanco on Walnut street
and also on Broad street has had much
to do with prices of Locust street prop
erty. In 1M7 tho Hotel AVIndormcio, then
cnlledlio Lenox. Apartments, consisting
of 22I-228-22S-230 South Broad street, or
northwest corner of LocuHt Btreet, with a
total frontage on Broad street of SO feet
by a depth of 117 feet, was advanced In
assessments to $123,000, Tills property was
again advanced to $5r0,000 In assessment
uf IMS and Is $523,000 for tho current year.
Tho Academy of Music, with a frontage
on Broad street of 1C0 feet and a depth of
233 feet, is assessed at $1,000,000 for 1914.
Tho total assessment of the north side
of Locust street from Broad Btreet to 15th
ttrcet Is today $630,000.
IMPROVEMENT S ON THOROUGH
FARE1. Improvements consist of tho Bellovuo
Stratford garage; tho American gat age,
occupying 1111-13 Locust street; 1113 Locust
street Is n five-story brownstono building,
and 1417 nnd 1121 have been modernized.
Tho availability of this street and Its
central licatlon will In time greatly
Increase tho value of spneo in It. It
has been often hinted the city would find
a good business proposition In the sale
of tho Hollingsworth School oil Locust
street, adjoining tho Academy of Music
to the west with a frontage of OS feet
by a depth of 170 feet. It Is assessed
at $300,000 for 1014, though It Is exempt
from taxation.
At the rate of $1000 a front foot, which
seems a fair price, It would bring ap
proximately $100,000.
So fnr, the advanco near Broad street
has not dossed 15th street on Locust
street, to any great extent. There nre
a good many properties for sale befote
ICtli street Is reached. Here the business
quality seems to pause, at leabt for the
present.
