QUIET MARKET
IN PHILADELPHIA;
CALL MONEY EASIER
Financial District Interested
in Liquidation of Interna
tional Smokeless Powder
Company.
There waa little to be said of the trad
lni; on tho Philadelphia Stock Exchange
during tho greater part of today's ses
sion. Doth New Tork and local stocks
displayed a hesitating tendency until the
final hour when United 8tntes Steel led
ft slight upward swing. Cambria
Steel was heavy for a time, but
encountered support at the lower level.
Announcement of a change In the oper
ating management may have had some
thing to do with the early selling. United
Oa.t Improvement and Northern Central
weakened Mlglitly, while Lako Superior,
Philadelphia Company preferred nnd
Union Traction all sold at their minimum
prices. Keystone Telephono Issues made
no response to tho annual report, Show
ing 18.1 per cent, earned on the preferred
stock, against 16.6 per cent. In 1913,
Accumulated dividends exceed 63 per cent.
Bids for Ilnpld Transit found llttlo stock
offering nt going quotations. It l under
stood that the gross receipts of the com
pany are running almost J2O0O a day ahead
of Inst year nt this time. Lehigh Navi
gation failed to respond to the report of
earnings of tho Lehigh and New Eng
land, which showed an Increase of no
less than J391,e65 for tho Ave months onded
November 30. The net operating Income
Increased $2(0,750 to $530,950. These gains
nro particularly opportune In view of the
recent talk of n possible reduction in tho
Lehigh Navigation dividend.
Tho Street was very much Interested
In the news that the International Smoke
less Powder nnd Chemical Company was
to bo placed In liquidation. There has
been heavy speculation In tho powder
stocks both here and In New York, as
well as In Wilmington, and the various
Issues have scored astonishing advances
since the war began. Smokeless shares
are now quoted above 30 and du Pont
preferred around 80.
The du Pont de Nemours Company
owns a two-thirds majority of du Tont
International stock which controls the
International Smokeless Company, and
the latter has a contract, it is
understood, to obtain 28 per cent.
or tnp smoKeless powder bualness. In
normal times this was regarded as an
equitable arrangement, but with every
mill working night and day nnd unablo
to supply the demand, the International
Company has been mnklng enormous
profits, it is said, which the de Nemourn
people are Inclined to regard as bolni;
diverted from tho parent concern. It la
understood that tho du Pont International
Powder Company preferred stock will not
bii disturbed, but the bonds may be re
tired. There Is a clause which permits of
their being called at 105. Recently "thoy
have advanced from around M to 974.
nnd were bid for at that price today.
It was learned today that some financial
Institutions have been recently lending
money on call as low as 4 per cent., but
with the understanding that tho loans
may run for some little time unlesB busi
ness and monotnry conditions change
radically. The official rate, however, re
mains at VA per cent. Incidentally It la
understood that the amount of emer
gency currency outstanding by the na
tlonal banks of this city has been re
duced to less than 150, COO.
