?i ibo , afternoon the market old -1
'tl nho high of the tiny, but the
-.ub i'Si-.-f alio no-. The sharp break
il hwt at Chicago favorably alTected
XJl. Factors of some consequence
J 17 he near apnroacli ot uie cm or

& n ola callers nt tho White House
' j ihftl he would not call an extra
'6n of Cong ess. Ho Bald that this

&SM weakness develops In DIs
..iif? securities coniorallun stocks and
hind! during tho late trndlnt. The stock
ETloPi, off 6 points from the Html
Sruly. while tho 5 per cent, bonds
Sd OK to 4fl. down 5 points. The
' lAkness was caused by tho rumor that
Tui earnings for tho fiscal year were very
Jr because of the high price of corn;
Sw that the company would default on
ihe April 1 interest on Its B per cent,
tends. The bonds are duo October I,
S and tho total amount outstanding Ih
"vew Haven became ono ot tho market
leaders, and at ono time was within ft
friction Of 2 points above the Until nt
rt'terday. It was said that tliero was a
mv large short Interest In tho Block
which had been caught and that trades
w forcing up tho price on this account.
It was also contoiiu---" ... nu...u ...........
hat a definite turn for tho better In tho
company's affairs Is close lit hand. There
was ft report In tho Street that the road
had In hand prospoote for the payment
if the maturing notes. Tho fact that
:t. r,.., n,,,i Maine noto extension
tlan had been declared operative also
, helucd Now Haven.
- As has been tho caso for the last sev
eral days, the most active issues wore
, steel common, Heading and Copper, ad
vances over last ulght'b llnal quotation
' being made by all of them.
Despite the fact that It was reported
i from Ottawa that the Dominion Uovern
! meat looks with disapproval on tho re
cent application by the Canadian ra I
ways for permission to Increase freight
rates en all lines east of Port Arthur,
Canadian Pacific was strong and was
vvithln a fraction of belli-; 1V4 Points
above tho final of yesterday.
There was not as much foreign Belling
today as there was yesterday, If the
tales by "sellers 10 flat" on the tape iiro
to bo taken as an inuicaiiuu m luium,.
, lloutdatlona The heaviest nales of this
1 kind were In Cent nil Pacific first 4s.
f With the exception of German marks,
. the foreign exchange market was again
weak todav. Marks were U higher at M'i.
The strength in them was probably duo
t6 the action of Great Urltain to keep
i foodtuffs from Germany, thus rcduc iik
our credit balance In Germany. Italian
llrermado another new low record at
5.55. This is the lowest point ever i cached.
The weakness was txplnlned by the fact
that Italy. In common with other Euro
pean countries, has received very largo
Imports from the United States and that
her exports to us have been small, al-
" most negligible, in fact, giving us a bis
credit balance In that country.

RAPID TRANSIT
IN STRONG DEMAND
Sudden Outburst of Buying
Caused Shnrp Rise Bald
win Preferred at New Low
Limit.
About tho only excitement of the dm
In tho Phllndclphln. Exchange occurred
rlnht nt tho clows when a sudden drmnivl
dovolopcd for Ilapld Transit, Unrllcr in
the see8lon tho trust ccrtlOcntcs made it
new low record nt 9'i on sales of about
400 shorcfi. A few minutes before 'ho
cloe bids nt 10 found no offerings nnd
tho price vvns raised to lOH, over (000
shnrcs belne tnketi.
A prominent Chestnut street house vvns
tho buyer nnd also hid for more after
the close. No news vvns forthcoming to
explain the outburst of buoynnev
The chief topics of discussion in local
flnnnclnl circles today were tho Pennsyl
vania Itnllroad nnnual report nnd the
Kalrmount Paris Transportation receiver
ship. Neither stock vvns inntorlally af
fected. In fact, the only Philadelphia Is
sue to show any marked chimco In quo
tation vvns Ilaldvvln Locomotive preferred,
on which a new minimum was announced.
The stock promptly fell to Its latest limit,
showing; a loss of 2 points. Brokers are
criticising more nnd moro these arbitrary
reduction", nnd It would not be surpris
ing If all limits wcro removed shortly.
Tho Street seems to think that It would
feel safer than under tho present method,
method.
In the eorly afternoon offerlnsa of
Hnpld Transit tundc their nppenninco
nnd the juice fell to 9. it new low point
since tho stock whs full paid. The con
troversy between olllcliila of the compnny
ami the city nuthoiltles wna doubtless re
sponsible for the scl'liur. Arllvlly de
veloped in tho tJenernl Asphalt Rroup as
tho result of the announcement of the
sale of ?2.o0n,0O0 0 per cent, cold do
lientnrcs to be used to retire malnrrns
Issues.
It was explained by the nowly appointed
receiver of the Fnirmount Park Trans
portation Company that thu proceedliiK
vvns an nmlcable ono for the purpose of
carrying out the plnn or reorRanlzatlon.
Mr. Clement Is also chairman of the Ke

Higher Prices
"PHE most important factor in the securities market
- today is the existing low rate of interest for monev.
If lenders cannot place their funds advantageously
they will invest in bonds, and this demand inevitably
brings higher prices. We believe that investors should
take advantage of the opportunity which now presents
itself, and we are particularly recommending a first mort
gage railroad bond yielding nearly 6 free of tax.
