yesterday :
'There wns no r.tie fnilt ready to

When those who waited -tho people

Foreign selling tu eiome of the Inter
national railroad stocks Is proceeding on
a large tculo and the fact that these I
tmes are maintaining a linn tone In
spile of the liquidation tspcaks well for
the technical condition of the market
and th Investment demand for dividend
paying rails. Tho foreign belling of
Pennsylvania sines the tint of the year
tu iald to have been In eicets of 60,000
shares. Atchison, New York Central,
Urle and other rails which have been
giving good accounla of themselves re
cently are raid to have been heavily
sold by European Investors,
Overplayed.
Interests connected with the reorgan
ization of the St. Louis and San Kr.ui
clsco Railroad Company say that It. K.
Yoakum's) opposition to certain features
of tho plan for the rehabilitation of the
property seems to be undergoing u de
cided change. In other words, Mr.
Yoakum Is tald to be manifesting more
of u deslro to compromise than at any
time tltice the railroad was placed In
the hands of the receivers. He has been
ono of the most strenuous opposers of
the various reorganization plans, but
wl.h the shadow of a foreclosure wtt'.eh
threatctss to lpe out his stock hangtug
over tho property he Is beginning to
eco certain excellent features tn the plan
that wero not vlslbto to him previously.
In the words of one of the rcorganlzers
of the property :
"Mr. Yuukum was told pretty plainly
what was what at a recent conference,
and seems to be acquiring wlbdom In
beginning to realize Uiut he overplayed
his hand."

Cfterday on prospects that the direct

day. The stock opened at 70l-j and
sold as high us "4, equalling at that fig
ure Its top for this year. It closed
at To, a gain of 2 points for the
lay. The company Ls ald to be earn
I111; between :0 per cent, and "5 per
cent, on Its common stock, owtmr to
tlm great demand for migar from abroad
and th.' hlch prices which that commod

A stiffening In the prlco of raw . ugars
and riKrts that the Cuba Catio Sugar
Corporation had Mild Its entire crop for
Uilb year to a tlnglu purcha:er wero re.
sponsible for a rlci of I'J points In that
sto-'tc yesterday, earning tho prlco to
a closo of CO, against (Saturday's) final
quotation of till1. At one time during
the day tho stoek sold ns high as "OS.
Ah a matter of fact the company has
not sold Its entire output, Hlthough It
has liecu given the chance to do so. The
corporation's directors bellevo that bet
ter prices will be obtained fur the unsold
portion of the crop If It Is held back
for a time, an the outlook Is that tlio
quotations for raws will go much higher.
Interests Mosnclatexl with the property
suld yesteid.iy that tlio early estimates
that the Cuba ('alio Sugar Corporation
would earn from -0 per cent, to per
cent, on the common stock this ear
might now li considered as below what
tho actual returns on that class of stwk
would lie. The crop Is said to be III ex
cellent condition, the weather Is perfect
for grinding and the outlook for a big
production is exceeding the hopes, of the
founders of the corporation. Huers

Spring Vevrr.
With the first days of spring the fluan
olal district Is 4'xpectlng that seiium's
rlso In the stock market. Wall Stteet,
which Is always more or Us ruperstl
tlous, Is a tlrm believer that the weather
exercuita no little effect on security
prices. It Is convinced that if the news
breaks badly on a dark, gloomy, cold
day a slump In prices Is to be expected,
whereas If bad news comes In a bright,
sunshiny day the chances aro that the
market will take It In a butter manner.
The Htreet thought the fprlng drlvo had
come a fsw weeks ago when we had a
few warm duys, but tlio cold weather
came back and fitocks lct their gains.
Now, with three fair days In succession,
hopo h onco mora springing up anew
and tlio Htreet is eugerly waiting for
tho sap to start up the trees and the
prices of securities to soar.
