In the absence of news to explain the general downward movement of stocks, a tendency which also was reflected in the bond market, where the tone was easier, tho Street heard rumors of im? pending developments of an unfavor? able character. Inquiry in important banking circles after the close of the market disclosed the fact that the financial difficulties of an institution engaged in foreign trade had been taken in hand by a powerful banking group and were in a fair way toward being cleared up. The announcement of the passing of the quarterly dividend on the com? mon stock of the American Sugar Re? fining Company was followed by a rush of selling in that issue which caused a violent drop for a time. The action of the stock showed that after all the recent talk about the dividend tho vote to omit tho regular payment came as a surprise in some quarters. Another point of special weakness in the industrial group was Western Union Telegraph, which dropped with gTeat vigor when the news leaked out that the company had sold an issue of $15,000,000 61,. per cent bonds to local bankers. Western Union broke 6% points net to 76 on a turn-over of less than 10,000 shares. This is the first public financing the company had done since 1907. The professional traders made an? other onslaught against Mexican Pe? troleum and succeeded in driving that issue from 1021/. to 97%, with no rally at the close. Other weak industrials were the equipment shares, Interna? tional Paper, Houston Oil and United Fruit. Rail shares were under pres? sure as well as the industrials. The decrease of 287,544 tons In un? filled orders of the United States Steel Corporation during July, as reported yesterday, was a smaller decline than had been looked for. The weekly re? views of the iron and steel industry took noto of slight improvement, al? though there continues an absence of large orders. The commodity markets were quiet and tho day's movements in foreign exchange rateB were narrow. Money rates held firmly at 6 per cent at the exchange for call loans. ? Money and Credit Call money was firm yesterday, the rate being maintained at 6 per cent all day. The time money market showed no change, 6 per cent also being the ruling rate. Yester- Year day. ago.

In Wall Street New Low for American Sugar Heavy liquidation of American Sugar Refining Company common shares, after the announcement that the directora had decided to omit the usual quarterly dividend of $1.75, indi? cated that many holders had remained confident up to the last that some arrangement could be made to con? tinue disbursements which had been made regularly for thirty years. Un lavorable trade conditions for the last year were held responsible for the de? cision, Earl D. Babst, president, said after the directors' meeting. The admission of the dividend was freely predicted by the bears, and the recent sharp decline in the stock indicated that this group had been well in? formed, but up to yesterday forenoon market observers as a whole were di? vided in their opinion. The action of the stock after the announcement showed this and the bottom quotation at 62% was the lowest since the panic of 1893. The common stock had paid at least 7 per cent since 1901, and last year paid as high as 10 per cent. Western Union Financing Announcement yesterday that Kuhn, ! Loeb & Co. had purchased a $15,000,000 issue of fifteen-year 6*_ per cent gold homls from the Western Union Com? pany, which they would offer at 99 to yield about G.G0 per cent, confirmed rumors which had been current for nearly a month that the company would have to do some financing. Al? though President N'ewcomb Carlton denied the financing: rumors when they first attracted attention, the informa? tion of insiders proved correct, and the action of the stock yesterday gave added confirmation of this view. The stock showed a net loss of 6->s points when it sold down to 76, a new low record since 1917. The financing is the first offering of capital securities since 1907. Less Bullish on Rails The news from Washington indicat ing that action on tho railway relief measure may bo deferred until autumn has put a damper on tne bull? ish talk on the rail stocks. Should this legislation be hurried through before Congress recesses it was thought the roads could immediately begin using the $500,000,000 promised them for new equipment and improvements. The expenditure of such a large sum would of course react favorably on the busi? ness situation generally. Now it seems likely that contemplated pur? chases may not be felt in industrial circles before the early part of 1922. This prospect has naturally taken a f,ood deal of enthusiasm out of -stock market followers, and recent weakness in both the industrials and the rails has been attributed to the disappoint? ment felt over the delav in Washing? ton. Grain Movement Heavy Railroad traffic executives, who have just completed a canvas of the situa? tion regarding rates on grain, sand, gravel and other building material, found that, while for the seven weeks ended July 1.6 the total car loadings were 976,720 less than during the corresponding period of 1920, the leading of grain and grain products in- ? creased 67,663 cars, or nearly 30 per : cent. The loading of sand, gravel and 'stone increased 50,280 cars, or more than 33% per cent. Figures for the week ended July 23 showed that grain and grain commodities reached the un? precedented ligure of 64,919 cars, an ? increase of nearly 100 per cent over j 1920. For the eight weeks ended July | 23, the loading of grain and grain | products was 97,105 cars heavier than I during the same period of 1920. United Cigar Stores Sales Pales of the United Cigar Stores Company of America in July were off 8 per cent, compared with the corre- j sponding month of last year, but, showed an increaso of 24 per cent over ! July, 1919, according to figures made public in the financial district yester? day. For the seven months sales were ' 1.1 ahead of 1920 and increased 33 per cent over 1919. It was said that while lower prices for cigars account to some extent for the contraction in j sales, the chief cause, lies in the price j reductions on so-called "by-products." The company has been selling upward of $5,000.000 of candy and merchan? dise other than tobacco products. It Pays to Advertise The leading copper producers have ! finally come to a realization of the ne? cessity of placing the merits of their j product before the public. The war re- j suited in the creation of many substi? tutes for copper, and the zinc manu? facturers already have spent a consid? erable sum in an "educational cam? paign." Now the copper producers come forward with the announcement that the Copper and Brass Research Associ? ation has been formed, with R. L. Agnssiz, president of the Calumet and Hecla Mining Company, as its active head. The Tribune announced several weeks ago that an organization of cop? per men was in the making the main purpose of which would be to educate the public regarding the economic uses of copper. The announced intent of the new association is "to stimulate by co? operative effort the use of copper, brass and copper alloy products." Mem? bership in the association is open to producers of copper sold here or sell? ing agents in the United States; to fabricators of copper, brass and copper products in this country and the Do? minion of Canada, and to others direct? ly engaged or connected with the cop? per and brass industries. American Smelting Inquiry Stockholders of the American Smelt? ing and Refining Company who have contributed toward an investigation of ; the company by the shareholders' com- j mittee, of which Henry Evans is chair- j man, will have their money returned to j them as the result of an agreement by j which the smelting company will pay the expenses of the inquiry. As the company already has reimbursed ""he committee for past expenditures the Evans committee is returning to stock? holders the amount of their contribu? tions to date. The committee expressed the feeling that good progress is being made in the investigation. Says European Conditions Are Improved J. Leonard Replogle, chairman of the Replogle Steel Company and pres? ident of the Vanadium Corporation of America, who has just returned from a trip abroad, says conditions in Eu? rope are still bad but are materially improved from what, they were a year ago. He was particularly impressed with the progress beinii made by Czecho-Slovakia, which, he says, now has 75 per cent to 80 per cent of the steel industry in what was formerly Austria-Hungary. Their low labor j costs, ?lue to a depreciated currency, give the manufacturers a substantial advantage in export trade. Germany, ! according to Mr. Replogle, is coming j back strong and is not suffering from ! a lack of coal. Mexicans Optimistic Optimistic reports continue to come through from Mexico City relative to the plans of the Obregon government to resume, payments upon the nationul debt. Yesterday advices from the ?Mexican capital said that revenues de? rive.1 from the export tax on petro? leum during the month of July would be deposited within a few days in tho Banco Nacional de Mexico, to be ap- j plied to debt payments. Bankers here I smiled when they wero shown the re? port yesterday.
