SWITCHING CUSTOMERS TO RAILS
DIFFICULT TASK FOR BROKERS
Prospect of Quick Profits in Specialties Holding Atten
tion in That Group Public Interest Keen.
Baldwin Common Soared
NEW YOIIK. Oct. 11.
lUIlroad nharcs were the features of tho stock market In the early deal
tnga today, whilo tho specialties lagged, nomo of them even showing losses
from the closlnK on Saturday. Tho mils. In tho meanwhile, becSmo strong,
advances of ono and two points being scored, whilo In the case ofNow Haven
R gain of six points was registered. Profit-taking appeared In considerable
volume at tho top figures and somo of the advance was lost, traders being ot
tho opinion that the throo-day advance In the rails had gone far enough
for the time being. In the afternoon moro attention was given to the special
tlos, and the Interest In the rails dwindled, nefore 2 o'clock these Issues had
moved up three and four points. Particular strength wan shown by Baldwin,
which was up nearly 13 points, while General Motors was eight above Tho
war stocks closed strong. The rails, on the other hand, fell oft under real
ising, many of them showing losses for tho day. Reading was a weak fea
ture, at one time showing a loss of moro than two points, while Baldwin com
mon was strong, the preferred lost 2 points.
It was difficult for the brokers to switch their customers from tho war
stocks to the rails. Many brokers had for weeks preached that the movement
la many ot the Industrials had gone too far and that a commitment In rails was
safer even though it did not promise as extravagant a profit as had been obtain
able In some of the war stocks. Customers would havo nothing of stocks that
dM not suggest the chance of at least a ten-point rise. Somo brokers resorted
to measures that were practically coercive to get their customers Into tho rails.
The banks, they pointed out, were discriminating against tho war stocks In loans
and were calling on brokers for more Industrial collateral. Why then should
not broken Insist that their customers toko on seasoned stocks In part Instead
of confining their operations to the most hazardous securities?
Arguments In support of the rails were at first hard to find. Then Now Haven
started up buoyantly and It at once occurred that a railroad might bo affected
by war orders. There followed a search of long overlooked records to find about
New Haven earnings. They were found to bo far in excess of corresponding
weeks and months of last year. Freight earnings were seen to bo particularly
good, and then, for tho first time, speculators seemed to realize that Industrial
centres, such as Bridgeport and many other thriving Now England cities which
have turned to the execution of war contracts, must bo supplying a large volume
of lucrative traffic.
Some of the trafflo from the war plants Is high class. This Is particularly
tho case with explosives, which need careful movement and extreme precau
tion. Naturally the railroads impose high rates on this freight. It must
enter heavily Into New Haven's earnings and must also bo a factor of con
sequence In the earnings of all the roads carrying freight from the du Pont
plants and others turning out powders, benzol, toluol and other explosives
and chemicals.
It can easily be seen that this new bull argument on the rails is susceptible
to elaboration. It may be pointed out, for Instance, that tho freleht sidinra
at Detroit aTo bo clogged with motortrucks and other motor vehicles that at
least ono largo motor company Is considering the establishment of an assem
blage plant at Cleveland. It may also bo used as an argument for specula
tion that the great export movement of grain and provisions is Just now get
ting well under way.
This month and next month are expected to show the largest exports since
the war began, not only because the grain and provision movement will be In
full swing, but because many companies with war orders, but obliged to change
their plants to execute the orders, havo only lately been turning out munitions
to capacity. The railroads must haul these Increased exports of grain muni
tions and so on to tho seaboard.
Though tho speculation has shifted largoly Into rails public interest is no
less keen. The Monday morning mall brought orders by thousands to these
commission housss and hundreds of now customers wero enrolled among the
speculators. Their orders covered most of tho things on the list and execution
of them produced a broad as well as an intensely active market. Sales in the
first hours alone aggregated 410,000 shares, which Is as fast a pace as ever tho
public showed. No banking caution can do more than restrain It temporarily

Special Cable to the Evening Lttger.
LONDON, Oct. 11. City bankers are
not satisfied with American exchange and
hope that suitable arrangements for the
skilful employment of the now exchange
loan funds -will be devised speedily.
Among shrewd observers 1 notice a
feeling that the war's pace Is too fast
and furious to last Tho new German
move in the Balkans suggests a last des
perate throw, following the perception
that wintry misery will soon make their
costly success In Poland and tho Baltic
provinces wcrse thun valueless. They are
also hard pressed by tho Anglo-French of
fensive: hence the Danish foncast of
peace before Christmas may truly repre
sent German desires and anxieties.

Spain now Is very' prosperous finan
