GOSSIP OF THE STREET
"MEXICAN PETE"
AN ODD PERSON
Everybody Continues to Ask
Cause of .Speelaeiiliir Per
rornianccs in Market
A prominent downtown broker, on be
ing asked what lie expected to be tho
big event when the market opened this
morning, answered thnt tlio same thing
would happen this morning that hap
pened Saturday morning. I'very one
would be iisklnc, "What Is 'Mexican
l'ele' going to do tt,ray7''
".Mexican Pete maintained Its record
as a spectacular star performer on Sat
urday, when It suddenly went from 182
to 1U2, and then almost as suddenly
went buck to 17S".,, where It was at the
close of the bnlf session. Further In
quiries ss to Hie etniFc of Its gyrntlons
failed to bring out anything which has
not nlrcady been given In this column,
with one cxciptlon, and that l.i that the
oil from the wells of this company Is
richer In gasoline than any other oil In
the world.
The other reasoni, such as a limited
floating supply of the stock, the whole
some regard with which Mexico Is
viewing the Pullet States and the cau
se. picnt decline of Oeitnan Influence In
that country and the heavy'buylng by
Hrillsh ihtcrebtu were all given as
reasons.
A broker called attention to the
almost total elimination or the recent
discrimination between war and peace
slocks during Hie Inst few days, how
both classes bad Joined In the general
advance hi prices.
"We are iIoIhb u cood business In
bond", especially rails and equipments."
said the principal of one of the largest
Investment hrtirei In the city on Sat
urday. "I don't know how long It will
continue, as I personally know of many
well-to-do people who are mortgaging
their Incomes to buy Liberty llnnds.
These people will net be In the market
again for a long time, nnd as far ns f
can see the nuCook for tarire sales of
bonds for some time after the cloe of
the present Liberty cnmnalgn Is not vey
bright. I do believe, however, tint there
U a possibility frr a good market for
short-term 'notes of high yield right
nway.'"
No If About Loan
"if the Liberty Loan In the Phlln.
lelphla noserve Platrlct falls to go over
tho top " The banker who started
to say something along the above lines
on Kattirfday was Interrupted by an
other banker, who. as a member of the
Liberty Loan committee, had been work
ing day nnd night for the succtfs of
the campaign, who said: "There Is no
such "If." The loan Is colng to be over
subscribed In the Philadelphia, district,
as It will he overscrllied ss a whole all
over the country. We have been liandl.
capped In a hundred ways, by the epi
demic. wnre than any other thing, hut
the Phllidelph'a Reserve District Is go.
Ing to rlsa supreme to everything und
come under the wire with her full quota
and iiitne Vo spate."
"Well," said the first, "I was going
to my that there would be a great many
disappointed If the lonn did not go over,
but while you bavo had many handi
caps, you have not had the handicap of
market
t
bad weather, which was experienced In
Fomo of the pievlous campaigns."
