M'abat* ..... I 1981 10.00 7.00 Pre-Holiday Quiet Depresses Interest Tn Stock Market Average Trend Slightly Downward, hut Trading Is Without Significance; Transaction? Are Smaller! The Approach of the holiday to-day kept interest in speculative operations yesterday at a minimum. Transaction? were loss than half of those of a busy day and the trades that were actually tunde represented chiefly the maneuv? ers of professionals. Although the av? erage trend was slightly downward, the day.'s market was essentially dull and without significance. Operator? for the decline set out in the morning In quest of indications of weakness in the market. Their first onslaught was on Texas & Pacific, which tumbled to a new low for the year, of 17, and closed at 18%, off 1% points for the day. The decline was accompanied by gossip of terms of a reorganization, but no authentic an? nouncement of plans was made. Another bold move was made against the market standing of the stock of the Coca Cola Company, which slumped to 27?4 and closed at '29r-*. off 1% point?. Central Leather was the objective of a third thrust and, under heavy aelling, it fell to 40, which is the lowest lovei attained thus far this year. The se curity closed at 4U1?, revealing a net decline of 3l? points for the day. The break in Centra! Leather was attributed by those who sought a reason to defla? tion in the leather industry. Hut, despite the evident purpose of the bears, the decline did not spread very far. ? The averages reveal a slight, net loss, but nothing impressive. On the other hand, the market revealed lit? tle spontaneity on the rebounds from the declines. In brokerage circles some observers of the day to day fluctuations contend that unleas the professional? can force a severe decline in the mar? ket by the end of the present week they will be able to make little headway at least until after Election Day. This theory was based on the belief that politics will in the closing day of the campaign exert itself as a conatmotlv? market influence. Speculators were apprehensive oxer the Immediate outlook for call money because of the approach of the October 15 money transactions, and particularly because of the maturity this week of the Anglo-French loan of |500,00'0,000. Call loans renewed at 7^6 and before the clone the rate climbed to 9 per cent. To-morrow the government will with? draw $8,000.000 from the banks, and more later in the week. There will probably be further calling of Anglo French money, which had been .tempor? arily lent on stock exchange collateral. Money and Credit For the first time since August SI the call money rato yesterday got up to 9 per cent. This was caused by prep aration.-i to meet the heavy payments ?m P'riday, when the Anglo-French loan falls due. The renewal rate was 7% per cent. Government withdrawals from the bai ? to-morrow will be ap proximately $8,000,000. Yester- Year day. ago.

Urged NEW HAVEN. Oct. 11.?A general mortgage On the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad was approved at ?i stockholders' meeting to-day, as recommended by the director?. The meeting was slimly attended by tockholders. President Pearson made :i general statement concerning the road's affairs and the object of the mortgage. He was followed by Vice President Bucklend, who gave an analy? sis of the financial condition. The ?-?resent indebtedness is $292,278,000, which is an increase of $23,325,000 over '.hat in 1913, when the present manage? ment came in. Mr. Buck'.and stated tha'. tho road's business i? growing and it is a big problem to keep up develop? ment with the demand made upon the property. After Mr. Buekland had gone into the finances of the company he was questioned at length by* Hagop Bogl gi&n, of Boston. Mr, Bogigian asked what salaries the officers were receiving and whether the road was practicing economy. Mr. Bogigian asked if the company would stand in the way of consolida? tion with the Boston & Maine, should , the government group that road with j the New Haven. He* e aid that if thai Ne : Haven aid not look eut, Canadians i would get the Boston & Maine, and ' this would prove serious for Boston, Portland and New York. After approving all impositions on the ballot the meeting whs adjourned until November 11. In Wall Street Whelan Propertle? May Merge Another merger of Wbelan tobacco I properties is said to be under way. | According to reports that nre generally credited the next enosolidat?on will in? clude Philip Morris & Co.. the Tobacco Products Export Corporation and the United Profit Sharing Company. It is understood that the three will be ein- ! solidated under the name of tho Na- I tiortal Tobacco Company. Both Philip ' Morris and Tobacco Products Export ! were formed early in 1919. The former acquired the business of that name ; in the United Stales. Tobacco Product* j Export acquired the foreign business' of the Tobacco Products Corporation 1 and shareholders were given the right to subscribe to the shares of both com- I panies. United Profit Sharing was or- i ganized to take over the coupon busi- '. ness of the United Cigar Stores Com- ? pany and in addition launched a chain I of retail tobacco shops in Canada. Ac- ; cording to present plans shareholders of tho three companies will be given the right to exchange their shares for stock of the proposed new company. Teia? & Pacific Goe? Lower On renewed selling Tekas & Pacific | shares broke?*to 17 yesterday, a new low on the current decline. In con? trast to the break lart week there wtp few rumors to account for the fresh outbreak of weakness, except possibly a statement regarding the company';* j adventure in oil. It was said '.hat of the two wells sunk on the road's right : of way in Texas, one has thus far failed to ?how returns, while operation? ? are still being maintained on the bee- ! ond in the hope that it will yet be turned into a producer. This hole is I said to have already gone to a depth j of 2,700 feet without results. These! wells were the only ones begun by the '. railroad following the original talk a j year a?o of the possibilities for oil j in the region served by the company. ' In liouisiana, it was stated, the road ; is opera-ting about "eleven wells in the Bull Mayou country with a daily output of approximately 400 barrels. Zurich Loan Closed After several weeks of negotiation the Swiss city of Zurich has closed with New Y'ork bankers for a loan of $?,000,000. The securities will consist ''? of twenty-five year 8 per cent bond? i and public offering is expected to he ? made toward the end of the week. The ? city of Berne, another Swiss munici- j paiity, is also in the market for funds | and bankers said yesterday that an- ' nouncement of this operation might' be forthcoming at any time. Bankers Calling Loan? Heavy calling of loans was reported yesterday and it was this development which was held responsible for the sharp run up in call money rates at the exchange. After renewing at 7% per cent caLJ money rose to 8 per cent in the cany afternoon and subse? quently jumped to 0 per ce-nt, the highest rate in several days. J. P. Mor? gan & Co. were said to be active in call loans yesterday, and the presump? tion is that the bankers were preparing ior the Anglo-French loan maturity on Friday. Funds aggregating upward or $200,000,000 accumulated against this mfturity have been out on cal! for a fortnight past. In financial circles the opinion prevails that, call money will likely be firm most of the current week. To-morrow the Treas? ury will withdraw $8,!"00,000 from the ?ocal banks and there will be further withdrawals on Thursday.

The New York quotation was 83 Cents an ounce. a decline of 2% cents from Saturday'? closing figure.

Indis has been steadily absorbing gold of late and is said to be exporting silver in order to pay for its gold purchases. Coca Cola Break? Bear op?;rators selected Coca Cola as the particular target for their sharp Bhooting yesterday and succeeded in driving the stork down at one 'time almost five points below the high price of the session on tho Stock Exchange. The rapidity of tho declino in the morning trading suggested that the drive was successful in. bringing about the liquidation of a considerable amount of long stock. At 27H the stock reached u new low level for the year. Toward the close the shorts decided to take in some of thoir profits and by the clost* had caused c rally to 29^?, which was still 1% points under Saturday's last sale.
