EVENING LEDGER-PHILADELPHIA, TENTHS!)! 14 i APRIL G, 1916 FINANCIAL NEWS LONG POSITION TAKEN IN MARKET; RAILS BOUGHT IN LARGE BLOCKS Defeat of La Follette in Wisconsin Primaries Regarded With Much Importance in High Financial Circles. Great Pressure of Money for Investment High Points in Today's Financial News Understood that extra dividend wilt be declared on International Nickel at directors' meeting May 1. Dividend of 12 1-2 per cent, declared by Deutsche Bank of Berlin for the pear 1015, againit 10 per cent. in. l91i. IngersolURand Company declared SO per cent, in cash and 20 per tent, in stock on the common shares. Bar silver liiahcr in New York and London. Many favotabte railroad earnings. Another new top mark for Buffalo and Susquehanna common. Work started by Board of Super' (visors of San Francisco on plan to purchase by the city all sttcct railway I lines. i m;w tomKi April t i Tlicro nrc two Incentive? for tnltlnR a Ions position 111 the stuck market todaj-. Tho most Important in the minds at conservative Ititorrsti wits tlio defeat of L.i Folletto In the Wisconsin primaries jestcrday. Till polllcal iloxclopmiMit vmi regarded In IiIrIi circles with far more Importance- than was nttnclied to II by ! tho speculative element and was reflected by the pnrclino of some l.irRe blocks of railroad stocks. C. D. Xlarncy R. Co. were about the heaviest lmvcrs of St. Paul, Atchison nnd Heading, but there were many buying orders In other stocks at prico limits, which will increase tho supply and penult put chase? at con cessions. As far as Wall street Is concerned, nothing Is In the speculative field to iti- , dlcate that tho traders and commission house clients comprehend that this Is a presidential car and that developments from day to day until the conven tions arc held mean more to the mass of ccurltles than any points on special ties or stories of Increased war orders. The mniket Is rlRht for n favotablo Influ ence from tho pre-campalRn actions. Money Is comlnR back to this city In larpe volume and bankers arc already prcsslnR available funds at concessions without llndiiiR borrow cim. How Riiat the pressure for investment Is may be mcnsuicd by the fact that the $75,000,000 Can adian Government bonds, placed at subscription less than two weeks iro, arc already selling at substantial premiums. The last note Issue, that of tho Ginco Steamship Company, which was offered a couple of das iro, was snapped up as soon ns it appeared. In tho specialties the feature was the advance In Industrial Alcohol to 17014. Tho Marine Issues had a Held of their own. There was persistent buying of both classes of stock at advnnclnR prices throughout the day, but the reasons for ac cumulating the preferred and common stocks weio dhectly opposite. Purchasers of tho preferred stock were based on an Idea that the tcorganliullon plan, pub lished jesterday, settled all the dlffcienccs between the secuilty holders. It can bo stated positively, however, that the common sockholders and tho bondholders' committees express positive opposition to this plan. New York Stock Sales pf Talk of Extra Dividend for International Nickel NEW YORK, April C A substantial extra dividend In addition to the regular quarterly payment of B per cent, will, It Is understood, bo declared on tho com mon stock by the International Nickel directors at their meeting Mnv 1.

There was moderate trading in the Hall Signal, with tho bulng consisting of accumulation for the purpose of ac. quiring control, but most of tho floating stock had already been absorbed before the price crossed 16 Some of the big stocks remained active and strong, with Keneflck Zinc moving up only 1 point.
