GOSSIP OF THE STREET
BULL MARKET AFTERMATH
OF LIBERTY LOAN SUCCESS;
EQUIPMENTS HOLD INTEREST
Brokers Look for Announcement by Railroad Adminis
tration With Decided Effect Upon Rail Stocks.
Gossip of the Street
rpHOSB who predicted a bull market at the clone of the Liberty Loan
campaign were rlfrht. The whole list virtually 'moved up yesterday.
A number of reasons were Blvcn for this, on the Street.
The war news, all In favor of the Allies: ths reported peace offers
from Germany, the enthusiasm over the successful ending of tho Liberty
Loan, all had a share In the result. But there was a persistent rumor
that an important announcement would very soon be made by the rail
road administration in referenco to rates which would have a most
decided effect on railroad securities, fome brokers said that an Inkling
of what Is Rofnjr to happen must have irons out, and 018111118 was the
reason for the unusual strength in rails all day yesterday. It was noticed,
that one large New York hoUse wns very active In tho rail market, and
this lent some color to the rumor.
It was not believed that tho proposed German peace was anything but
feeler, and It had In Itself no effect on prices except so far as It shoned
the state of mind which Is working behind the German front, and that
tho success of the drive Is no longer spoken of In the bombastic, manner
which had become so common.
The bond and Investment houses have not yet fully rested up from
tho strenuous exertions during the Liberty Loan campaign. They are
waiting to get their bearings while they are oercomlng "that tired feel
ing" Incident to hard work and the weather. Many of the larger concerns
are Mill doing a nice business.
Equipments Hold Investors' Interest
The attention of investors N likely to be centeied for some time to
come on the movements of equipment stocks. Never before have orders
for equipment of railroads been handed out on such a magnificent scale as
has been done leccntly by the Government. While Jt Is true that tho
profits on these orders nre to be limited to 5 per cent, presumably on the
total, It Is north while to pause for a little and figure some of them out.
In the two best remembered instances where an order for 1025 locomotives
as shared between the Unldwln Locomotive Company and the American
Locomotive Company at n cost to the Government of about 60,000,000,
assuming that the profits will be fi per cent on this total the Baldwin
Company would get for Its 4f0 locomotives a profit of $1,320,000, which is
more than 6 per cent on Its $20,000,000 common .stock, and the American
Locomothe Company, on the rame basis, would be entitled to a profit of
$1,C80,000 on Its 67S locomothes. T.hls Is more than fi per cent on its
$25,000,000 of common stock. A recent Interview with Alba B. Johnson,
president of the Baldwin Company, gave an Idea of the rate at which
that concern was turning out locomotives, and It is no figure of speech to
ay that It could turn out the full order In a few months If necessary,
and these profits only apply to a part of Its operations for the year.
It is therefore reasonable to assume that equipment stocks aie likely to
tecelvo much attention for some time to come.
War Brought Country's Bankers Together
It was Inevitable that the Federal Reserve system should be a potent
means toward the solidification of banking Interests all over the country
and the beginning of an era of good fellowship among the bankers, while
at tho tame time It eliminated that fey of competition and narrow jeal
ousy, which, before tho Introduction of the system, was bo prevalent.
But It lemalned for the war nnd the three Liberty Loan campaigns to
weld all these benefits In ti way that no other occasion could hove done.
E. J. Oallen, secretary of tho New Yoik State Bankers' A&soclatlon, said
recently:
"The war has brought the countri's bankers together as nothing else
could possibly have done. The broadening effects of this close tassocla
tlon and cooperative spirit will be of lasting benefit and will work har
mony and progress In the battle of peace which will follow victory In
the war."
On the subject of tiade acceptances Mr. Gallen fcaj.s:
"One of the greatest new forces In finance Is the rapid giouth of the
use of trade acceptances by business corpoiatlons and firms, making
what was formerly a large olumo of book accounts available as live
paper, discountable at a preferred rate by the holding banks with the
Federal Reserve banks."
,
In Connection with the extended use of the trade acceptance us a
commercial medium of exchange, a ery Important step has been taken
by the Leglslatute of New York Stato which could be profitably copied
by the State of Pennsylvania. It Is the granting of power to savings
banks to purchase acceptances under certain easy conditions. On this
subject Mr. Gallen remarks:
"Another matter of considerable moment to New York State bankers
particularly is the power granted at the last session tf the Legislature
to savings banks to purchase acceptances. Kormeily ihe savings banks
were dependent on the large banks and trust companies for help to get
currency In times of stress, and were compelled to sacrifice bonds which
they had bought for permanent Investment. By availing themselves of
this new power, the savings banks, by purchasing acceptances, will have
liquid paper which they can sell to the Federal Reserve Bank for cur
rency, and tlius relieve the banks and trust companies, on which they
foimerly depended, from carrying large currency leserves for such possi
ble demands."
Better Prices in Prospect on Industrials
A prominent investment banker said yesterday, when his opinion
was asked as to the outlook, that ho looked for better prices on good
Industrials and also on coppers. Marine preferred, he said, should ap
peal to Investors at piesent; also all good steels and American Beet
Sugar, Haskell, Anaconda and American Car and Foundry. While he took
little stock In the peace talk, he said he believed tho effect on the market
was very favorable.
The statement of Chairman Simmons, of the Senate FJnance Commit
tee, In which he referred to the splendid condition of the nation financially
and every other way and his remark that no new tax measures would be
Introduced during the present session, had a very favorable effect on the
Street and was no 'small factor In tho creation of the optimistic feeling
which was general over the whole financial district.
Low Quotations for Liberty 4s
There Is considerable discussion, not to say uneasiness. In some
quarters at the very low quotations for the Liberty 4s and all sorts of
reasons are advanced as to why they ure selling around 96.
One of the most plausible reasons Is that 96.22 Is the price which these
bonds should bring on a 4H basis .so as to equalize the Income with the
Liberty 4 Us. When this Is taken Into consideration, namely, that the
two Issues are .selling virtually on a parity, there Is no occasion for
wonder or alarm.
A well-known banker, speaking on this subject yesterday, remarked
that he believed that comparatively few of the 4s will be exchanged for
the 4 Vis through a feeling of patriotism. There are many people who
would rather the Government should get the benefit of that one-quarter
of 1 per cent interest than that they should and therefore will not make
the change.
Look for Increased Stock Activity
In giving their opinions yesterday on market conditions L B. Smith
tCo. eald:
"The end of the Liberty Loan campaign, with an oversubscription of
this Issue, Is favorable to our security markets and leaves financial In
terests free to devote themselves to normal business. It Is thought that
a moderate Increase of activity In the stock market may now be ex
pected and that prices of stocks will be dlreotly, Influenced by develop
ments abroad which are now rather more favorable."
West Co. said:
"The resumption of the German drive has resulted In some 'reac
tion In prices, but no liquidation of moment has occurred, rather a con
traction In activity. There appear to be the same underlying feeling ot
confidence In the outcome as heretofore, andthere Is more of a disposi
tion to buy etocks on weak spots than there Is to sell."
