THE. CONSTETOriON ThDAY DECEMBER 6 19ll 7 i i i i i ii Constitutions Markets Business and Financial News Speculation Almost Eliminated and Investors Wait rot Even Lower Levels. High Call Money Factor in Weeks Declines. New York December IS. Special The recent weakness In stocks has been but a continuation of the general decline which started In during August Ma had little interruption since but there were many new low records made in the pest week and It was by tai.

the worst that has been seen in some days. It has seen the largest number of low prices for the year and low prices for all time of any week In the white period of decline. There were a number of reasons why the stock market might have gone up during the wick as the prospects of a successful counter revolution in Russia and the success of the British in Palestine also the prospect that the rail- road uncertainties would be cleared up soon. Against an advance and in favor of weakness was the decidedly UUe4Y feeling that the entire allied cause oem. to display towards the pending heavy drive of' the Germans.

It is said that a serious situation may be created It the strength of the Touton attack La not broken quickly and until the definite result of the present German plan is known. there is certain to be further uneasiness at least In security market circles. The most weakening factor. however. was the advance in money rates.

wlt4 call loans tightly held at high rates. There is no reason to expect that this will last long. but for the time It has prevented support for securities when a tatlll1Jlnlf influence is most urgently ateded. There was no evidence that important banking or financial Interests intended to come to the' support of the market during the present crisis and It fs possible that they will not do so unless actual panic a threatened. The reason for this Is that every um.

the concentrated funds of Wall street have been called to the support of the market. It has resulted in increase in speculation and that is not desired at the present time. Investors re not disposed to do much even though there are more real bargains today and have been for a long Urns. than since the panic of 1907. It has been reported that a large amount of the selling of the put week was the result of liquidation of foreign loans collateral.

This is aid to be due to the desire of the British government to buy as many of Its own se curities and retire them at present low prices as possible. eVen though this involves the sacrifice of American se curities at ruinous prices. Those that are upholding this foreign liquidation view say that it would be to Great Britain a advantage to buy its own bonds at a 10 per cent discount even If securities back of it had to be sold at a discount of even 20 per cent. There has been a certain mount of sbbrt selling 110 in spite of all the efforts to curi It. and the calling of loans.

due to the shortage of money and the depletion or equities. was a source of other Important selling. There did not seem to be very much iQuldaUon that was not of a forced character. however. as people are not selling at present levels as a rule excepting where they have to.

The poor character of the market. therefore Is due more to the low ebb of buying de mand. rather than to the nature of the selling side. There ire few sellers and no buyers excepting' at ruin prices. That the decline has beta orderly and that there have not been a big series of failures la a source of wonder to close observers but the reason that there has not been an actual panic Is that there are comparatively small amounts qt tock in weak bandit The market not been so thoroughly liquidated in a it not back to 1ST 3 It Is so thoroughly oversold that.

everyone in Wall street Is saying that a person who buys now is nearly certain to make a good profit before very long. Even these optimists however these cues in deserts of pessimism refuse to predict that the market will not go lower. Investment capital la more' cowardly than speculation money. and It is hiding now. not that It does not recognize the wonderful op portunltlet before It.

but for fear that much lower levels cay. be seen before the turn comes. It will take either good- news or strenuous support therefore to rally the many Investors who are ready to buy when they think that the market has hit bottom. Ria. Call Mon T.

The rise In can money rates to per pent and the firmer tones of the time. money market were due primarily to the preparation of the banks for' paying the 40 per cent Installment due tm the second Liberty loan. There was also a switching of the tides of money Iron the reserve cities to the outlying and farm districts. Money is also tight because of the preparations for the first of the year financing. It is believed that a number of emergency loans will be necessary to tldtvrlous corporations over their yearvend requirements.

as renewal. of obligations and new financing will be most difficult this year. There will also be the last 411 per cent payment on the second Liberty loan bonds on January IK so that there la not much chance of liberal loaning conditions until that date. Then a brief spell of plenty In the money market is expected to be followed by another tightening when the next government loan is announced. which is expected to be early In February.

Unless the present railroad situation can be straightened out In the next few weeks. It is believed that many of the roads will reduce the dividend payments to be made In the first or see- ond quarter of lt The outlook at the present time. however. Is in favor of some Arrangement that will take ear. of the financial needs of the roads and allow them to pay their normal dividends.

If this proves to be correct there should be an Immediate ad vance In railroad securities which have declined to prices which discount the very worst that could happen to the. roads. but make no allowance- for any favorable possibilities such as guaranteeing of disbursements by the government or the financing of all necessities by the United States treasury The dividend record or the put week has been favorable with several extras and increased dividends by Industrial corporations. From the present point of vi w. it looks as thought the industrial stocks will be in a stronger Sosttlon.

no matter what may be done the. railroads or by the government for them. Such companies as have to raise funds at this time do so at a premium for. the banks. but a dangerous penalty for themselves.

An instance of this was shown In the past week when the contemplation of a stock issue on favorable terms to sharehold- ers caused reduction of nearly It 1 points. in the market price of the stock of the company. There can be no question but that even the most favorable offerings of new securities to shareholders will not mean sue- vcase-l financing at the present time. and underwriting syndicates will probably have to prepare to tale. over a large pert of all.

offerings that may be made in the nut. few months. IQ the vast twenty to fifty years economists state that there have only been one or when It was 99 difficult to float new secoritle at the present time. vaJIJiM Steel Tonnage. The unfilled tonnage statement of the United States eteel corporation for November revealed a shrinkage of about 160000 tons from the previous month.

it was the smallest decrease that has been shown for some time. and as there was no up in shipments. It Is a sign that the current business of steel companies showing big increase with prospects good for in Increase to unfilled tonnage for December. The outlook for earnings for the steel corporation for. the last quarter owing to the tact that the disturbing influences of the war and price-fixing.

etc. have lost begun to make themselves felt. At the present time the volume of steel business is showing some Increase over what it has. been at any time previously since price-fixing was tint announced. with private consumers good buyers and a number of large government contracts passing.

The placing of orders for several million pounds of copper for the government resulted in a firmer tons in the copper market during the past week also causing a further redaction In the small surplus of nearby copper that the reducers have to sell. There has been talk from time to time of a' further revision downward of goverm- raent prices. but copper people art now convinced that there la little chance that present fixes will be disturbed. The cotton market was very strong during the peat week. especially following the governments report of the size of the crop.

which Indicated that it Is only 10549000 bales in 1917 which Is the smallest crop in years. Coming at a time when demand for cotton is Increasing rather than dimin ishing. it la an indication that cotton prices are certain to. hold at abnormally hip levels until well into the next crop year atleaat. The only thing that prevented a much heavier ad.

vance in cotton during the week as trade Interests were heavy buyers. was the taking of speculative holders and an lncreaes of offerings from the south. C. H. P.

nator Mew- lands chairman of the. joint congressional committee on railroads held a conference at Washington with Howard Elliot. Daniel Wlllard. Fairfax Harrison and other prominent railway presidents members of the railroad war board. After going over the situation with Mr.

Harrison and his associates. Senator Newlands. in a widely published statement announced that the government must loan or guarantee loans of 39000000700 to the railroads Immediately In addition to the relief expected from the 15 per cent Increase in freight rates. He then added The railway executives expressed the view that they would be extremely embarrassed In carrying out the interstate commerce com missions' program unless the trust and pooling laws were suspended. They urged that congress take Immediate action In this respect.

The railway presidents left the conference Senator Newlands went on to explain with the understanding that they would submit a detailed statement of their' financial needs In time for presentation to President Wilson on Monday. December 10. To the great surprise of the news. paper reading- public. Instead of carrying out the program arranged with Senator Newlands calling for a government loan of 81000000000 and immediate suspension of restraining laws last Monday.

Fairfax Harrison chairman of the railway war board made a lone statement. which read in part as follows Some misconception sums to exist as to the Immediate requirements of the railroads In the present situation. The railroads under present management are prepared to furnish all the transportation which the existing plant can produce under shy form of management. They do not ask one binion dollars from the government or anybody else at the moment They could not Invest It In plant and equipment If they had it because of the difficulties of getting materials and labor They do net ask at this urn for re peal of trust and pooling laws as relating to thorn. for they do not consider such relief Immediately necessary to increase unified operation.

Wind Had UPPed What was It that happened between Thursday end Monday that made the railroad presidents stop racing In one direction. turn I double somersault. and then start at neck speed In the opposite direction Until Monday of this week the railway presidents and their camp followers were hysterical In their efforts to impress the public with the importance of' at once wiping off the books ill restraining laws and of lending the railroads not less than a billion dollars for the coming years financial requirements. Why was this sudden about face that caused the war board Issue Its statement of lat Monday Here la the answer The first law passed in this country to regulate the railroads Was the act. of 1887.

which created the inter state commerce commission and made pooling and traffic agreements Hie gal. At that time the whole country was a net work of railway pools. What was sought in the act of KIT was not to bring about lower rates but to end discrimination rebates favoritism and monopoly. No real progress was made in the act of 18IT in straightening out the country's railway problem. in that law no power was given to the interstate corn.

mere commission. Proceedings against th railroads could only be brought after complaint had been mails by the shippers and then any decision handed down was promptly carried by the railroads Into courts where delays. occurred of two four or six years or more. In the Chattanooga cue after nine years of litigation. a decision was handed down by the courts ordering a rehearing hi the interstate commerce commission.

In brief until President Roosevelt began his movement in 1104 to bring about real government regulation of the railroads about the' only good the Interstate commerce commission had accomplished was to compile statistics. It was Roosevelt who forced through the Hikins and llepboxn amendments. making rebating illegal and giving the commission Its nut real power. Despite the bitter fight made by the railroads Roosevelt won largely as a result of the Pennsylvania coal car scandal the Atchison rebate disclosures and the exposure of the outrageous publicity campaign methods of the rail. Then on top of the Elklns amendment came the great victory giving the' Interstate commerce commission power to top the- steady.

upward movement' that had been going on In freight rates since 1500 by suspending all proposed Increases la rates until an Investira. tion had been held as to their resonable- ness. The Answer. Now to get back to our starting point that Is why did the railroad pros. idents suddenly reverse themselves in their demands for a billion dollar loan with Immediate suspension of restraining laws Since the lkins act of 1110 WM pasted giving the Interstate Commerce commission power.

to suspend proposed rate Increases the railroads have been fighting night and day to have the teeth and claws re moved front the laws passed since 1904 to really regulate them. Until Monday of this week it looked like they were about to succeed. But that day the railroad presidents at Washington learned that President Wilson was hold- tog a cabinet meeting to consider the railway problem and that sentiment was rapidly swinging toward government operation. That Is why llarrl- son and his associates flopped In last Mondays statement. Rightly' government operation is the last thing the railway presidents want.

But in work lug up their case In the recent freight rate hearing. the railroad presidents their hand. Where they fell down was in supposing. for- in slant- that President Wilson would' au- i thorize the loan of 1 000 000000 to the railroads and suspend all of the hard- won. laws actually regulating them without government operation.

That they' finally did realize their mistake Is evident from the way they. went to the white house lat Wednesday hat in hand One point remains What has been 1 accomplished under government regu- latlontTbat the railroads were never able to. agree among themselves when they had A free hand is a matter easily roved hr turning to the records. As lute as 187. ten yesrs after the act of 1517 and before there was any real regulation.

dividends were. being paid. on only per cent of the outland tnc. railway stock. The last annual i report of the Interstate commerce commission that for 1914.

shows that I per cent of the outstanding stock was receiving dividends. In 1337 the amount of vk receiving dividends only teat5 9 1114 It was 15507. SS6 009 Tao 1897 the verac-o divided rate a was 4 per cent for 1 14 It. was 7 t9 per cent. Strict government regulation.

By the Associated Press Htre are two storjes showing how American officers in France get things done An artillery battery corn- transfer his command by rail loaded tile men and their equipment and then discovered that no engine was attached to the train' and none appeared available. At that moment a small freight engine arrived In. the yards and Its en glneer and fireman.

at first protesting. obtained the battery commanders orders to. take out the artillery train. This engine. proving not powerful enough to move the heavy load.

it was permitted to proceed on its regular freight run. A few minutes later a passenger train arrived with a much more powerful engine. This one was cheerfully commandeered and. as a result the organization was transported on time. Available records do not indicate whether that trains passengers have gone forward as yet.

The second Incident occurred the day before Thanksgiving. but has just come to light. An officer under orders to see that the necessary quantity of cranberries reached his command in time for the holiday dinner. discovered that no freight train service WI available. The' barrels could not.

be moved by express. so the-Amen- can brought passenger tickets had the barrels trundled into the compartment of the car and arranged in the previously reserved seats before the astonished railway officials. The officer made his cranberry delivery in time for the dinner. TEN MEN ARE KILLED BY MINE EXPLOSION muefleld IT.
