GOSSIP OF THE STREET
FOREIGN BUYERS ARE NOT
WAITING FOR PEACE TREATY
Representatives From Several Countries Inspect Merchandise
and Try to Arrange Credits Gossip of the Street
WHEN speaking of the expected revival in business ns soon ns rertnln
mattera arc dceltled upon, but more particularly tlic peace treaty, n
local banker remarked tbat lie discovered when in New "ork ou Thursday
that the financiers and merchants of foreign countries nre not going to
wait for the peace treaty or any other obstacle, but are beginning negotia
tions at once.
He said he found that there are alrcndy representatives of several coun
tries trying to arrange credits with the banks nnd other financial institutions,
vthllc others from "the same countries nre looking over lines of merchandNe. i
This is particularly true of Japan, whose credit arrangements nre excellent.
Itulians also have shown a desire to deposit their own government bonds
to establish credits for large purchases of cotton and steel. Representatives
lire also here on the same errands from Spain. Rumania, Greece and even
Poland, he said, and he was not certain that llelgians were not also mentioned.
For some reason they get this information at first hand in New York.
That is natural as far as financial matters arc coilcerncd, he said, hut when
it romes to supplying the merchandise for which the long or short credits
nre arranged in New York, Philadelphia should be in the first row.
"Iudustries in the United States," he snid, "are in n peculiar condi
tion nt present. AVe arc told the steel industry is running only CO per
cent in some places, while it is shut down in others. The textiles seem to
be in a rather disturbed state, with strikes and lack of orders in many
lilies. And yet in a conversation with a shoe merchant I was told that
every shoe factory in the country had more orders than it could fill for more
than n year to come. Many of these factories, the shoe merchant said, were
short of hands, some ns much as CO per cent, largely Italian experts who
left when the war started, who may never return, nnd whose places nre
hard to fill. He told of the representative of a big London (England) shoe
house that had been ior years a good customer of a factory in the Boston
district with which he himself had also for years done business. 'When the
London man presented his orders for the season he was told that they could
not do anything for him for a year, and he himself was told to cut his order
CO per cent and then go over it again and cut it 'to the hone.'
"This shoe merchant, in the course of further conversation, snid the
shoe lie had retailed for $0.50 before the waf he was obliged to retail now
for $13, nnd hnd been notified of an ndvauce which would compel him to
charge 14 per pair."
Prospects for Selling Surplus of Copper
A broker whose concern is interested in copper stocks baid it was Im
possible for any outsider to estimate the surplus of the refined metal on
- hand in this and foreign countries at the present time. It is acknowledged,
however, he said, that the amount is large. But in considering this surplus
it must he taken into consideration that normally there is always around
COO.0OO.000 pounds on hnrid. There is a glut of the metal on the market
today, because the companies are more willing to take a loss if necessary
for1 n time rather than curtail production or reduce wages below the present
rntca. Another reason is that before the war almost CO per cent of the
copper production of the country was exported, with Gernjany ns this
country's biggest customer. That country needs copper today, nnd if the
present blockade were lifted, he said, and if Germany could find the wrfy to
pay for the copper, this country's surplus would not be anywhere near what
it 'is now.
Asked about the icquircmcnts of other European manufacturing coun
tries, he said he understood that they hnve surpluses of their own on hands
' for which tliey would be glad to find an outlet. He said he was very hopeful
ns to the future of copper. As soon as business gets under way again there
are developments promised nil over the country in electric power and light
ing plants, especially in the form of consolidations' of smaller existing plants
iuto large service distributing stations, not to speak of projected hydro
electric projects, sonic of gigantic proportions, which ure being discussed,
all of which will require enormous supplies of copper, he said. Then in
the matter of new building construction, -which is expected to istnrt with a
boom before very long, he remarked, that also will call for large amounts
of copper.
Small Bondholders Expect Much From Brokers
.lust as the manager of one of the lnrge hanking nnd investment houses
was about to answer the question as to whether there were manyr,iberty
Bonds still being offered by small holders, his telephone rang nnd a long,
tedious conversation ensued, with much patience displayed ou the part of
the manager.
"That was one of them," he said, "and his case is typical. We didn't
want to buy his bond if he could be induced to keep it, but when that was
impossible he acted as though his bond was the only one. for. sale in the
tountry; that we were under obligations to buy it; that we were in business
for his especial benefit; that we should not charge the usual small commis
sion, nnd that he was conferring such n favor on us as to allow us to sell
his ?C0 boud, and to accommodate him we should keep the establishment
open an hour after the tisual closing time,
"Of course," the manager added, "that bond is a great deal to- him
nnd we nre willing to accept his viewpoint for the time being as far as
possible, only we won't keep open as he would like us."
Outlook for High Commissions to Brohcrs
When discussing the movement on the New York Stock Exchange for
higher commissions, the principal member of a well-known bankins nnd
brokerage firm said he was in favor of it, but he thought it would be diffi
cult to get the approval of the governing committee for it. "There is one
thing I regret to see omitted in the plnn, nnd that is lack of provision for
conforming the calculations to the decimal system and UBing tenths instead
of the antiquated eighths, for which there is not one shadow of excuse.
Thc difference in bookkeeping if tenths were introduced would be wonderful.
"As it is today," he said, "we arc nway behind, although we have been
workiug nights to catch up, and the same thjng occurs when there is a
succession of big days such as we hnve been having for some time past."
Incidentally, this broker said that for four months just closed he had
done more business than in any other four months since he began business.
It is said that some customers of brokers are opposed to the higher com
mission rate proposed, and also some brokers are not altogether in sympathy
with it. The brokers who oppose it arc not many, but they believe it wiil
reduce speculation nnd they believe in the end they would be worse off than
under the present arrangement. Buck customers as would express an
opinion said the brokers, now that the market was booming and was likely
to continue to do so for a time, were doing very well on present rates.
Short-term notes were more active yesterday, with prices a shade
better following the larger volume of transactions, and in the trado there
, was a feeling that, with the present good business being recorded during a
period in which a government loan campaign is under way, there must
unquestionably follow a good market after May 10, the closing date of the
Victory Loan campaign.
Some of the nearby maturing foreign issues presented a degree of
, .strength, and there was. greater activity also reported in thi3 department of
the trade. The Canada Os of August 1, 1010, and the American Securities
Gs of August 1 , 1010, were 00 11-10 nnd interest bid.
INCREASED BUYING
OF FINISHED STEEL
I
Conditions of Indus
' "
try Virtually Unchanged.
Trade Holds Off
New Yorli, May 3. There lias been.
some increase In the buying of finished
htcel products during the last week, but
this increase should not be confused aa
indicating any materia change in .the
- . uuderlylne conditions of the industry
1 " "
It must be remembered that the com
pftrisons are made with previous weeks
wiien buyers were holding oft; because
of, the attitude of the railroad adminis
tration on steel prices.
HccaiibP ofthls fact ii ii believed
In the trado t,hat the activity now noted
is due entirely to the demands at some
consumers who are not willing to wait
any longer before covering their require
ments, believing- that the prices as
agreed upon between the, , steel manu
facturers and' the members of the indus
trial board of the Department of Com
merce will stand at least until the de
liveries are made on the orders just
placed.
Quite a few mills report a Bllghtly
better demand for shapciv and plates,
but It is admitted that the 'increase U
not of sufficient proportions to cause
any great enthusiasm. Jlnrs also have
been well purchased, but Ibis branch
of the steel trade baa been ahead of
the others for several weeks.

than heretofore, when there was vir
tually no demand. The tonnages in
volved in the present inquiries are small,
but some interests believe that there
Is 'a possibility that a decided change
might come if the inquiries increase and
cull for larger quantities.
Thw production of the steel mills of
the country ranges all the way from
25 to 05 per cent, the latter by the
plants of the United States Steel Cor
poration. For the industry as a whole.
it is the estimate in well-informed quar
ters at present that the average is be
tween 45 and 48 per cent, with" pros
pects of further curtailment by some
of the Bmaller companies which are
finding it, difficult to secure orders to
take care of their output.
One of the' important developments
during the' last week was a meeting of
the members of the general committee of
the AmSflcan Iron and Steel Institute
held infifhe offices of Judge K. IT. Gary,
president of fte institute and chairman
of the United States Steel' Corporation,
last Tuesday. It is significant that this
gathering was the most secret ever held
by this committee and no announcement
was forthcoming after adjournment.
From reliable sources, however, it
is learned that it was the censensas of
opinlou among those present that the
steel manufacturers should stand pat on
'the prices they ngreed to put into effect
n the recommendations of the industrial
board, to which objection has been made
by the railroad administration led by
Director General of Itailroads'HInes.
Mr. HInes has come forward with a
suggestion that another conference be
held in an effort to adjust the contro
versy, and it Is hoped among the rank
and file in 'the steel trade tbat the gen
eral committee will take a firm stand
rti the matter and show the members
of the railroad administration the futlU
UvoL their attitude under, the' present
r-JroumtBce of ootla pf; watcrUl sd.
