SSiP OF THE STREET-PHILADELPHIA MMKE
PROSPERITY x OF SOUTH SAID
TO REST ON SOLID BASIS
Shortage of Freight Cars Most Serious Difficulty,
and Government Is Doing Everything Possible
to Relieve It Gossip of the Street
I
WAR CONVENTION OF BUSINESS MEN
For a few days this column will be written from Atlantic City, where
thi War Convention of American Business Men, called by the Chamber of
Commerce of the united States, is expected to bring together the leading
bueincss men of every State in the Union,
It will be the purpose of this column to obtain and set forth briefly
the intimate personal views of as many as possible of these leaders of bust
lf on the important issues which this country is facing today in business
And finance, as seen from their several standpoints and environments.
'. in 8. MtmUIS, of Morris Brother.", In the Morris BiilldliiR, Chestnut aired near
' Fifteenth, 1ms Just returned from n trip South. '
"What the South Is suffering; from most at present," he says, "Is a shortage of
freight cars, but the Government Is doing all Hint is possible to relieve the situation
and has accomplished some results.
"Birmingham, Ala., Is fully equal, In the' matter of business and finances, to
the boom times of some years siro, when she rode on n hlsh wave to prosperity,
tml then came the reaction,
"Hut her prosperity thin time Is built on a better foundation and Is permanent.
'Theie Is no lack nf money In the South that I visited. The farmers have sold
their corn and cotton and are well supplied with cash, and the deposits In all the
banks have Increased wonderfully.
"They had difficulty In procuring labor In the South a little while hro mvltiK
to the exodt.s of negroes to the North, but the tide has turned and the 'darkles' aie
all coming- back home again.
"One thins Impressed mo er much," said Mr. Morris, "and that was the deep
roofed patriotism one finds all oxer the South. The people down thero nre anxious
to set actively Into the war, and the southern officers and men 1 saw were splendid
specimens physically and mcntall.i."
Morris Brothers are largely interested in the public utilities companies In Tus
caloosa, Ala. It Is expected that the Government may select a slto down on the
Black River for one of the new nitrate plants, which are to cost about $1,000,000
tach, to manufacture nitrates for gunpowder and for fertilizer out of the air.
Anticipating Next Liberty Loan
It Is believed that a number of recent Issues of shortllme notes, particularly
the Seaboard Air Line by the National City Company and the Storage Battery Com
pany by Brown Brothers and Cassatt & Co., were rushed through su as to get under
the wire before the next Liberty Loan would be Moated. It It reliably reported that
(0 per cent of the Seaboard notes are already sold, and It Is also said that the
Storage Battery notes arc going like hot cakes.
Dividend Likely to lie Paid
"The slunu In the stock of the Pacific Gas and Klcctrlc Company on Thursday,
Mday and Saturday of last week, when It dropped from El to 42," said K. II. lioehn
nine & Co., of the Stock Kxchangc Building, "was said to be the result of u icport
that the directors weie going to pass the next dividend, but the fact that It i
recovering its lost ground seems to r.s to Indicate that the dividend will be paid."
Cause of Delay in Price Fixing
l That the delay In price fixing Is not due to any indifference on the part of tlme
connected with the Government, but was largely on account of delay in submitting
their reports on the part of the producers, was generally accepted as true by those
In a position to know.
The grcate. t difficulty is being experienced. It was said, In the (llng of steel
prices on account of the complex, factors which enter Into steel manufacture, and
the different methods employed by the various manufacturers. It was also asserted
In some quarters that the fixing of soft-coal prices by the Government had resulted
In a shortage of production of fully R,000,000 tons.
On t lie other hand, It is asserted that the production of anthracite Is running
higher than at any time In the history of the Industry.
"The failure cf the Government to fix prices for copper and steel Is having n
greater adverse Influence on the market," said a well-known banker, "than Hie
Russian situation, the Income tax, the excess-profits tax and the next Liberty Loan
all combined.
"It Is human nature to feel depressed where uncertainty exists, and this price
flxlng uncertainty lias hung like a heavy black cloud over every transaction for
months past.
" am certain," he continued, "that the Administration will bo perfect!) fair
In this work, as It seems to have been in such price fixing as has been done alieady,
and I also believe that when the prices aie fixed we will all wonder what we were
scared about."
Liberty Loan SVis Unusually Active
Almost every Investment house reports unusual activity In Liberty Loan 3!Js.
It Is generally believed that this Is the icsult of the drastic taxation of big incomes
proposed In the revenue bill as returned to the House.
Investors who are liable to the heavy surtaxes will prefer to buy the first Issue
f tax-free 3',4 per cent Liberty Bonds, rather than subscribe heavily to the forth
coming issue, even with the heavier rate of Interest.
i
, Divergent Views of Bond Market
Howard Butcher, dr.. of Butcher, Sherrerd & Hansell, Heal Kstate Trust Build
Ine, says the banks aie doing splendidly with the brokers, and that customers are
actually putting up more money than they are called upon; that not n single account
f theirs had to be closed up. '
Mr. Butcher says the general uncertainty of Government action on price fixing
Is accountable for the market selling off. "I don't know how to tneasiiie up the
present situation," said Mr. Butcher. "It puts me in mind of a story told about an
old gentleman In New York in the dark days Immediately following "the outbreak of
the war. This old man was attending a bank directors' meeting. From the presi
dent down every man of them was very serious looking and very glum. This old
man was smiling, and he put the question, 'How far can a dog go into the woods?'
He was chided for his filvollty undel- such serious conditions, and told It he was con
cocting pussies the best thing he could do was to answer Ills own question and get
1t off all of their minds so that they could tackle more serious matters.
"'Well,' he said, 'some say the dog can only go half way Into the woods, for
when he has passed half way he is on his way out at the other side.'
"That," said Sir. Butcher, "is how I feel about present conditions. I think we
have got through tho woods half way and are coming out on the other side but
heaven only knows what we are going to come out Into."
The sentiments of the manager of a well-known downtown banking and Invest
ment house yesterday were almost the teverse of those expressed by Mr. Butcher.
He said things weie not looking bright; that the banks were calling on the
brokers and the brokers In turn were calling on their customers, and that taking It
"all in all" the outlook was anything but promising. '
Broker's Comment on the Situation
Speaking of the erratic conditions of the present market, the head of a well
known brokerage house said yesterday:
''The late J. P. Morgan, as ho sat foot upon an ocean steamer for an Kuropeau
vacation, gave a famous statement to the newspaper men to the effect that ho was
, 'a bull on the country.' The Inference was for a period or developments, a smash
' came, In which. In the semlpanlc of 1901, steel Mocks caught it hard. The late James
' It. Keen, probably'the bo'dest manipulator ever known, and at times by far the most
successful, hit It wrong to the extent of being In serious trouble, He became almost
' conservative and so the prophets hesitate, awaiting a clear voice from a leader.
It .has not come.
"The serious-minded gentleman who speaks his conviction and endeavors to tell
the dear public that we are In n bear market Immediately enters Into the delightful
diversion of lifting his coat tails to furnish a target for the business end of thousands
of boots. The public does not like to be told unpalatable truths. No one may. affirm
that such and such a probable condition Is the truth but he can reason from facts
to a common-sense, deduction. There exists today all the symptoms of a so-called
. "bear market.' All the movements of a bear market are the exact counterpart in
IjsV reversal of movementa of a bull market excited trading; a large volume of business;
Kf" tremendous nnd sudden changes with occasional reactions in a ouu marnei aown-
warn; in a Dear matKel ppwarn. ine so-chiicu retuitu "- "' wo very
largely from short covering. The average man cannot stand being short of stocks.
He will not go out" to lunch or leave for the day without closing out his contracts.
Indeed, many of the hardened professionals follow the same course. They cover
whenever there Is an oppportunlty. If the 'poiiunlty does not occur to buy In stock
t a profit, they cover at a loss rather than go home and worry about It, The bolder
of those who go Bhort of stocks, having a deep conviction of Ufa general character of
the market, call upon all their frit and hold out during what they regard as frenzied
IV ,, foments of covering. Further than this, whenever there is aigenerai covering move

The cotton market opened steady, with

by reports of firm southern spot market and
a demand for the actual lit excess of the

RUMORS OF PEACE
STRENGTHEN CORN
Possibility of Russia's Quitting
the War Causes Nervousness
Among Shorts, Who Cover
CHICAGO, Sept. IS.
A dispatch from Washington, asserting
that Ilussla was not unlikely to conclude a
separate peace with Germany, was the fac
tor that made the corn market strong today
after a little Irregularity at the outset,
when prices ranged slightly below yester
day's close. The messnge, which Indicated
tint IlusslA. might quit the war and sell to
Germany all military supplies as well as
foodstuffs and raw materials, led to the
belief that the war would be prolonged and
caused considerable nervousness among
shorts, who scampered for cover
Olllclal denial of any such Intention on
the pait of Russia was later received from
Washington.
Offerings were light nnd the temper was
bullish. Thero was apprehension over pie
dictions of frost In North Dakota, with
temperatures in tho far Northwest lower.
Commission houses had n number of buying
orders, which took considerable grain out
of tho market. Influential interests were on
the buying side. Tho demand seemed to

vice president of the railroad, and W. Bttndy
Cole, president of the Hlack and Willie t-oni-pany,
testified.,
WANTS It.Mt.no A I TO EXPLAIN
In it nutshell, Mr. Itansoni wants the
Pennsylvania Itallroad to explain why the
corporation refused to sanction or put Into
execution n contract it virtually had made
with the taxlcab company after Mr. Cole
had refused to withdraw Ills -cabs from
Philadelphia niM leave a clear field for the
Quaker City Company, a "company charg
ing higher rates nnd favored by Mr. Alter
bury," ns Mr. nansom said.
Sir. nansom said that the arrangement Mr.
Atterbury lind sought to bring about would
mean n direct monopoly In Philadelphia nnd
virtually a whnlesalo Injustice to the resi
dents of tills city. Iloth tho railroad and
tho Quaker City Company have presented
their side of the controversy and Issued de
nials. Odlclals of the Illacl; and White Company
gave their version today. Jn tho absence of
Mr. Cole, who Is In New Yotk. Mr. Crnn
stem, mnnnger of the Philadelphia branch,
said :
"It would seem. Indeed, that an attempt
had been made to hoodwink ttie people of
Philadelphia. 1 can see no other explana
tion for Sir. Attcrbury's action than Ills
friendship for Mr. Jarvls.
"Just why personal friendship of any kind
should be used to discriminate against
nearly 2,000,000 Phlladelphlans I fall to
see.
"I don't mean to Imply that all residents
of Philadelphia use our cars. That, of
course, Is not true. AVhat I do mean to
say Is that our business here has Increased
11)0 per cent since we started last l-'eb-liiar.t.
"V started Willi fifteen cnbs. Now we
hate fifty. We are planning lo put more
on the street In a ery short time and can
put out from lull to 200 if Phlladelphlans
p.ittonize us as they have befoie.
"Our bi'anch in Philadelphia Is perma
nent. We appeal to the people of Phlladel.
pliln. Wo cater to them. We wish to give
them the cheapest and the best service, nnd
I know that we do. The investment hero
lepresents an outlay of $80,000."
In explaining the light of the Quaker
City Cab Company, Mr. Cianston said that,
unquestionably, the Hlack and Whlto Com
pany had proved to bo very strong com
petitors. "That Is proved by the fact that the
Quaker City concern, through tho Pennsyl
vania, rtallroad, tried to havo us removed
fiom tho city. The contract with the rail
road lu New Yolk was merely another con
tract tentnte on account of Increased busi
ness. We are III Philadelphia tu stay, re
gardless of any railroad." he said.
"We'll stick to tho finish," he concluded.
IJ.M LtlOA I 'S STAT JIM KN
lu presenting the railroad's side of the
controteis.t. Vice President County said
that the rallri.id company had met with
cousldeiahlc dlfllculty In producing efficient
taxi service from its terminal In New Yotk
and that the main view was to please the
public. The Westcott Kxpress Company,
which has tho service now in New York,
was chosen for the simple reason that it
was the best and more elllclcnt, he said.
Mr. County said that no attempt was
made to discriminate against the Black and
While Company, hut explained that It was
a new cinccrn and had not developed as
yet to the point wheie railroad officials
thought It advisable to cite It the contract.
A statement glten out by the railroad
company follows 111 patt:
After consldetlug the application of
seteral taxlcab companies, on May '.'.
Hi 1 7. n proposed contract with the Hlack
and White Cab Company was submitted
and Its execution was authorized, but
both nt the road committee mrctliig.
when this question was discussed, and
also at the following meeting of tho
boaid of directors, when the contract was
submitted, the directors notified Mr. At
tetbury that they wprp verv much dis
satisfied with the taxlcab conditions at
Pennsylvania station and that he was not
to allow thn lecelpt of a commission by
the railroad company to stand lu the
way of giving the best public service to
our patrons; that the policy of dealing
with various taxlcab companies which
were not well established had so far been
unsatisfactory, and that before the con
tract with the niaek and White company
was executed or delivered he should as
sure himself that the concern was one
sulllclently strong to Insure Its perma
nence and responsibility.
Between May 0 and June 27. when the
tesolntlon appiotlng the proposed con
Hact with the Hlack and White Cab
Company wai rescinded. Mr. Atterbury
gave this matter a great deal of Investi
gation. As he explained the matter to
tho hoard of dlrectirs ho felt that to be
assuied be.tnnd question of a i citable and
permanent taxlcab sertice thero was at
present only one company In the city of
New York qualified to give It, and that
was the Westcott t'xpress Company,
which Is constantly adding new cabs,
until the number Is satisfactory to the
railroad company.
