In Wall Street
The financial community felt much
more cheerful last week. Probably
the improvement in stock prices in
itself was an important contribut?
ing factor, but at the same time the
feeling was abroad that things had
? definitely taken a turn for the better,
i and the .news in some respects bore
< this out. What pleased the Street
perhaps as much as any other de
! velopment was the indication that
Washington is beginning to get down
i to work. Prospect of immediate
' constructive legislation as regards
i the railroads was a helpful influence
of great importance. The extent to
which it changed the attitude of in?
vestors during the latter part of the
week was to be seen in the improve?
ment in railroad stocks. Large In
: vestment houses which have been
complaining for a fortnight that it
was extremely difficult to sell rail?
road stocks without breaking prices
sharply, owing to the lack of demand
for such issues, suddenly found on
; Friday that all such offerings were
being well taken?in fact, so well
taken that prices moved up on all
sides. The buying of a number of
the high grade railroad stocks came
from exceedingly strong quarters.
This week ought to afford a pretty
good test of the stock market. The
improvement which took place last ?
week was general and quite substan?
tial, reaching more than two points
in the industrial average and almost
as much in the railroad average.
The gains were chiefly the result of J
the oversold condition of the market. |
j Nevertheless, the advance was sol
well sustained that some outside in?
terest was beginning to be attracted j
toward the end, and if those who j
have been dominating the market ?
are able or willing to carry the j
movement further dealings might:
broaden considerably. But it is to be I
doubted whether any real attempt to
do much more on the constructive j
side will be made before the first of [
the year, for it is to be expected that
money rates 'will harden again
toward the end of the month. Janu-1
ary 1 corporation disbursements will j
aggregate in the neighborhood of j
3500,000,000. The banking position
is none too strong at the moment, as ;
i was indicated by the statement of [
| the Clearing House members Satur- !
day, which showed that reserves ]
were nearly $30,000,000 below legal
requirements. While that condition I
is only temporary, it is altogether ?
unlikely that the banks will be able
to increase their 'oans in the face of
' the large demands impending. After
the shifting of funds incident to Jan- ;
j uary 1 disbursements has been com-,
' pleted it is to be expected that money
i will be much easier, although few
; traders venture to hope that the j
supply of funds will be large enough ;
to encourage a renewal of specula
; tion on a large scale. The general !
J expectation of those who are optimis- j
; tically inclined is that a slow im- i
; provenient, extending over several
months, will take place, and that ;
gradually the money situation will
: be straightened out ?so as to permit a ?
free market some time in th? spring.
Meanwhile, passage of favorable ?
railroad legislation may put life into >
. the railroad section of the East.
_
To look upon the decision of the
Treasury to defer collection of in
' terest on its war advances to the Al
? lies as a result of the demoralization
of the foreign exchanges is to take a
superficial view. The exchange rates
! are the effect of a condition, not the
cause. In their fluctuations they!
merely measure the state of world j
finance and trade. The underlying !
reasons for the action are the abnor?
mality of trade balances and the cur?
tailed ability of the Europeans to
! pay out huge sums in acceptable cur
; rency until their industries begin to
produce more abundantly. In per?
mitting a delay in the interest pay
\ ment the Treasury is jn effect ex?
tending $475,000,000 a year in credit
; to the Allies as long as the arrange
; ments last. The operation will place
i an additional burden on the Ameri
j can taxpayer, but that will be his
contribution to the clearing up of
\ the European credit muddle. Pri
! vate investors have been hesitating
; to act until the government shows '
| its own faith in the future of Eu
rope by lending additional credit, j
Perhaps the. publication of the letter
of Secretary tilass to Representative
[ Fordney, coming just after the Edge i
bill had been sent to the President
? for his signature, may indicate an i
approach to the arrangement of the |
credit Europe needs to wax strong
again.
The temporary abatement of in-i
j terest charges, which bankers as
, sume would be allowed, contributes
a degree of strength to the European
exchanges. Although it was antici?
pated, the Allied exchange, led by
sterling, rose sharply on Saturday,
completing a week of recovery after
I the smash to new low record during j
j the previous week.
j France May Increase Rail Rate?
PARIS, Dec. 21.?According to the
: "Eclair," the Minister of Finance to?
ri day introduced a bill in the Chamber
of Deputies calling for an increase in
railway tariffs for passengers nnd mer?
chandise. Under the bill the increase
would be 70 per cent for second and
? third class passengers and 100 per cent
j for first class, while that on merchan
I dise would he 100 ner c*nt.

FINANCIAL EDITOR, The Tribun?.
164 Nussun Street, New York City.
Inclined to Speculate
Question?Will be triad to have sug?
gestions as to the advisability of with?
drawing a savings brink deposit of
about $1,000 drawing 4 per cent inter?
est and in investing in some seasoned,
dividend-paying stock, preferably un?
der par at the time of purchase, where
there is a prospect of enhancement
of value. In this connection have in
mind Central Leather common, United
States Steel common (although this is
above par), and some issue of Bath
lehem Steel.?F. F. H.
Answer?'f yon withdraw your funds
from the savings bank and buy any
of the stocks you mention you will
place yourself in the speculative class.
We do not know whether these stocks
will advance or decline. Nor are their
present dividends futures. Why not
buy some seasoned preferred stock,
such as United States Steel, American
Car and Foundry, Central Leather, etc.?
Municipal Bond Defaults Few
Question?Have there been instances
when American cities, counties or
states have defaulted on th2ir bonds?
If so, what redress have the bond?
holders? Why is it that municipal
bonds of Southern and Southwestern
cities and counties are offered at higher
interest rates than cities of the same
size in the Northeast and West?
D. A. M. S.
Answer?Only in rare instances have
subdivisions of states defaulted on
their bonds. A few years ago the city
of Atchison failed to pay its bonds
when due because refunding rates had
become so high that the city refused
to borrow. But the refusal to pay was
shortlived in this case and the bond?
holders received their principal and
interest. Redress would consist of a
claim against the city or town or
town or county, and would become a
first lien against the taxing powers of
the city, town or county. It might be a
long drawn out affair, but if the cor?
poration was solvent, things would un
I doubtedly work out well enough. The
; older cities almost always sell their
bonds on a lower basis in just the same
| way that older and well established
? manufacturing concerns do. Prosperity
! in the South is a comparatively recent
j development, and investors in the North
generally prefer bonds issued by North
: ern municipalities.
Higher Return and Safe
Question?I recently got out of the
| service, and have in the bank about
? $1,000. drawing 4 per cent interest.
This money I put there for safekeep
: ing just before I went overseas, but I
i now want to place it where it will give
? me a higher return than 4 per cent.
I What do you think of W. L. Douglas
: Shoe Company 7 per cent preferred
! stock at 100 a share, as recently adver
! tised? Do you think this stock could
! be readily sold, if necessary??T. M. W.
Answer?We think Liberty bonds
yielding over 5 per cent at present
I would be the best security for you to
! buy. They certainly are the safest.
| W. L. Douglas preferred stock, while
i undoubtedly a ?;ood investment, on ac
j count of its small issue, probably does
| not enjoy as active a market as many
I other preferred stocks.
Brokers Charge Fair
: Question?My broker has made an
! extra charge of 4 per cent besides the
6 per cent ($20 extra). Do you think
: this is a fair charge, as I do not want
1 to kick until I am sure of my ground?
Can you explain to me how they quote
American shares in London at about
15 per cent higher than New York?
Is this quotation in pounds or dol?
lars? Why has the Canadian Pacific
gone down more than any other rail in
the New York market the last three
months??E. G.
Answer?We think your broker was
perfectly fair on his charge to you on
your debit balance. He probably made
very little out of it at that, as call
funds were exceptionally high during
the month of November. Ameritan
stocks sell higher in London on ac?
count of the great depression of the
pound sterling. The quotation is in
dollars. Considerable selling of Cana?
dian Pacific has been going on In our
market by Canadian and British hold?
ers in order to stabilize Canadian and
F.nglish exchange. Austen Chamber?
lain, Chancellor of the Exchequer of
Great Britain, has just stated that he
advises British holders of American
stocks to sell their securities here in
order to establish dollar credits, thus
obviating the necessity of purchasing
sterling exchange.
M., K. & T. "Oil Rights"
Question?Have been advised bv a
party connected with Wall Street to
buy Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railroad
stock, if only a few shares, at any price
within reason up to $20. He states that
upon return to private ownership an
arrangement is to be made with a large
concern to drill on its right of way
for oil. Does this lino run through
many miles of the best oil property in
the United States and if oil was struck
of any reasonable amount would stock
be worth many times what it is sell- ,
ing at? Do they do a large amount of i
oil transportation??A. A. M.
Answer?Missouri, Kansas & Texas '
Railway is in receivership. Its pr?s- !
ent earnings are poor. The amount
fuaranteed by the government is
.551,737 a month, and for the first
ten months of 1913 the road actually !
earned $2,912,579, against a guaran?
teed return of $5,517,374. WTiile it la
possible that the road may arrange
for oil drilling, it is a question whether
or not their right of way is sufficiently
wide to hold out prospects of much
success. Apparently, everything con
nected with the State of Texas offer*
speculation in oil, but we do not think
the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railroad
holds out anything more than a !
gamble in this respect.
WUchita Southern Oil Company
Question?Please inform me if the
Wichita Southern Oil, Houston, Tex.,
is a good investment.?F. L. A.
Answer?No, in our opinion, it's a
speculation.
Lauraine Magneto Company
Question?Will you kindly tell me
through your column what you think
of the Lauraino Magneto Company
stock??W. E. S.
Answer?This company has started
to manufacture magnetoea in its Long
Island City plant. The inventor of the
magneto is the president of the com?
pany, Michel Feldlne, The tebrth of the
stock will depend upon the success the
company has In increasing the sale of
its product on a profitable basis In
competition with concerns which al?
ready have magnetos on the market
which have stood the test of wide usage
for a number of vears.
