Prices Lower
As Result of
Strike Outlook
j Sterling Higher, However;
Drop in Boston Dis?
! count Rate. Is Made
After the Market Closes
In the domestic financial markets
' yesterday the apprehensiveness of
? traders over tho impending strikt!
I in Great Britain to-day wns ex
? pressed in lower quotations. Despito
j marked irregularities of trend, average
! prices of Industrial and railroad stocks
: declined and commodity quotations
! shrank.
Strangely enough, no evidence of
| fear was revealed in the fluctuations
of sterling exchange, whicM after its
weakness on previous days recovered
! a ?lent to the pound and Imparted
strength to the Continental exchanges.
? This display of steadiness in this highly
; sensitized market was interpreted by
i some as a reassuring factor. The ac
?tion of sterling exchange evidently, re
! fleeted an attitude in financial London
which was cabled over to ono of the
: international banking houses. "There
? is still a chanco that railwaymen and
? transport workers' lenders may coun
' sel moderation," according to the mes
; sago, which added that if a strike was
executed it would probably be "half
| hearted."
However, professional speculators in
! stocks, who dominated the market, used
? the disconcerting probabilities in Great
: Britain to facilitate their drives against j
securities. Although weakness was j
? fairly general, the railroad stocks were |
| most heavily sold and the averages of j
twenty railroad stocks and t?n rail- j
I road bonds slumped again to the lowest!
| level of tho year. The sugars and the ,
! steels were the special objectives
among the Industrials. '
Call loans were made at 7 per cent
throughout the day. The most signifi
| cant development of tho day became j
known after the market closed, and j
' related to credit. The Federal Reserve ]
' Bank of Boston announced a reduction ?
? in its discount rate on commercial
paper from 7 to G per cent. Since No?
vember, 1919, when the Federal Re
' Serve Board and the twelve regional
banks began their campaign against
overexpansion, this is the first time
that a bank has shown a sign of re?
laxation.
The action of the Boston bank is
doubly significant because it was done
with the approval of the control board
of strategy, the Federal Reserve Board,
which sits at Washington. As a matter
of routine, all^ changes in discount
rates must receive the sanction of the
board. It is not surprising that Boston
should take the lead in the reaction
from restrictive credit measures, be?
cause the New England district was
among the most to deflate and to suf?
fer depression. Recently an improve?
ment in the textile, and shoe trades has
been reported, and this betterment has
evidently made it possible for borrow?
ers to a greater extent to pay off
hitherto frozen loans.
Many expected the Reserve officials
to wait until the Bank of England cut
its discount rate from 7 per cent. The
bank took no action yesterday. The
directors of the Boston institution |
.were not looking across the seas for
leadership, but kept scrutinizing the
?t?te of the bank's reserves. Boston's
action presages a general cut in dis?
count rates, but not necessarily at
once. The action will unquestionably
have a stimulating effect on business ?
men in the Boston region and else?
where. It comes as a messago of cheer
i from bankers to men of commerce. It
I does not, however, by a stroke of the
| pen solve pressing problems of re
I adjustment.
Money and Credit
Call money loaned at the Stock Ex?
change yesterday at 7 per cent all day.
One of the reasons for the recent ad?
vance in rates from below 6 per cent
j is the resumption of government with
j drawals from the banks. Yesterday
withdrawals amounted to $47,000,000.

' The Dollar in Foreign Exchange
Despite disconcerting news from
| London on the Britisli industrial situa
: tion, foreign exchange ra|es improved
j steadily yesterdav, sterling advancing
I a cent to $8.09%.
The Italian lira provided the fea
i ture of the market, however, climbing
] to within a short distance of 5 cents.
i The leu was slightly higher, and the
i Portuguese escudo recovered strongly.
. Rates on European centers moved
irregularly within a narrow range. The
Greek drachma, continuing its decline,
dropped under 7 cents.
South American and Far Eastern
rates were little changed, although
the Chilean peso dropped still further,
being quoted at eight to. the dollar.

Merger Story Attract? Attention
Wall Street was interested yesterday
in press reports of an impending
merger of the National City Bank and
the Mechanics and Metals National
Bank. Executive officers of both in?
stitutions reiterated the denials of the
story made to The Tribune on the pre?
vious day. Gates W. McGarrtrh, presi?
dent of tho Mechanics and Metals Na?
tional Bank, said: "The statement ap?
pearing in morning newspapers to the
effect that a merger of the Mechanics
and Metals National Bunk and the Na?
tional City Bank is in contemplation
or that, John McIIugh is to become
president of the National City Bank is
absolutely untrue in* every detail."
John H. Fulton, general executive man?
ager of the National City Bank, made
a similar statement. Several other
names were mentioned in Street gossip
as possible successors of Mr. StiTlman,
whose resignation was recently reject?
ed by the board of directors, including
Percy A. Rockefeller, a director and
one of the largest stockholders of tin
bank; John H. Fulton and John V. Rich
and William A. Simonson, executive
managers of the National City. It was
asserted at the bank that the dominat?
ing interests on the board are standing
strongly behind Mr. Stillman and want
him to continue as president.

A Hopeful V iew
Private advices received in Wall
Street banking circles yesterday from
London indicated the seriousness of
the British labor crisis, but expressed
the hope that conditions might change
overnight. A cable to one of the
largest institutions in the financial
district said: "The general strike situ?
ation looks undoubtedly serious, but
there is still a chance that the railway
men and transport workers' leaders,
not feeling sure of adequate support,
may counsel moderation. If the Triple
Alliance does come out it is quite pos?
sible the strike will be half-hearted
and the men begin to return almost
immediately, except in especially bad
districts."
Paying Off Ford Loans
Bankers conversant with the affairs
of the Ford Motor Company said yester?
day that arrangement had been made
for retiring a part of the company's
$24,000,000 bank loans. The amount to
be paid off, it was reported, is approxi?
mately $10,000,000 and is held largely
by Detroit banks. The rest of the loans
will be renewed. The latest reports
from Detroit are to the effect that the
Ford company received orders in March
for 102,000 cars.
Exchange Members Meet To-day
The Stock Exchange committee hav?
ing in charge the reception to out-of
town members and partners, scheduled
for to-day, was in readiness yester?
day to give their guests a royal wel?
come. The program will include an
address of welcome at 10:30 by Presi?
dent William A. Remick, a talk on odd
lots by H. G. S. Noble, luncheon at
the Stock Exchange luncheon club, an
explanation of the new system of clear?
ing stocks and loans by Samuel F.
Streit and an address on the duties of
the specialist by Erastus Tefft. It is
expected that fully 150 out-of-town
members of the exchange will be pres?
ent, some coming from as far west bs
Denver.
Canadian Pacific
Canadian Pacific got into new low
ground for the year yesterday when
it broke under lui). Weakness in the
stock was announced by the report
that the company may enter the mar?
ket for new funds sooner than expect?
ed. President Beatty in the last an?
nual report indicated that new financ?
ing would probably be undertaken some
time during 1921. He said that while
capital expenditures for the immedi?
ate future will be curtailed it is de?
sirable that a portion of the company's
cash reserves expended on capital ac?
count should be restored within a short
time.
The Reported Copper Inquiry
Officials of leading copper producing
companies declined yesterday to dis?
cuss the reports of a Department of
Justice inquiry into the recent shut?
downs of the mines, but dispatches
from Washington to the financial dis?
trict indicated that the Attorney Gen?
eral has an eye on this situation, even
though he has not yet undertaken an
active investigation. In view of the fact
that producers could go on operating
only at a loss under existing condi?
tions, little fear of an investigation
was expressed in the trade. Increas?
ing seriousness of the British coal
strike is holding up all foreign buy?
ing of copper. Domestic business is
also very small.

on account of the back dividends, leav- ?
ing 36% per cent still due.
