railroad men that tho roads are coming
back to their private owners within a
month has given a stimulus to equip
ment manufacturing such as has not
)x-en experienced in that line In many
months.
Not only are many orders being
placed almost dally, but the number of
tentative Inquiries being received by tho
manufacturers of all classes of railroad
equipment Is said to be staggering. Such
Inquiries are not conflnedtto locomotive
makers alone, but car manufacturers re
port continued increase In the Inflow of
tentative orders. In steel rails the
Kamo condition exists, although In that
lino inability of the manufacturers to
ntipply demands being made on them
Jias long been known and for that rea
on fewer orders are coming In.
GRAIN MARKET.
Heavy Argentine shipments, weaker
cash markets and bearish flour situa
tion were factors which pressed the corn
market In the last hour yesterday. De
liveries broke 21J cents to 2 cents
from the day's high point and closed at
Its low. Argentine shipments .for the
week were announced as E.601,000 and
Incited some soiling. Argentine ship
ments have been large, as 26,000,000
bushels of wheat and corn have been
Bent to Kurope In the last three weeks.
That competition n corn by a foreign
country and Importation of Canadian
oats Influenced ncllitiK yesterday. But
the largo exports from Argentine were
at 120 , eased off to 118 with a
recovery to l!0 at the close.

eentlment would undergo a change when
tho March 1 report of the grain stocks
in the country should be published.
Weakness In rye undermined confidence,
ns .that grain dropped on report that
there were no export orders In the
markqt.
The market was steady earlier, due
to the continued small movement,
strength In stocks,, rise In sterling -and
the rescinding of the order giving 70
per cent, of the cars for leading wheat,
but fluctuations during the early trad
ing were narrow. Prices for corn In the
Argentine hold Arm, wlttt-iHftf Improved
demand from foreign sources. Poor
transportation and wet weather retard
the movement from tho Interior. But
those ralnB aro proving beneficial to
tho new crop.
Oats were steady up to tho laat hour,
when they declined under Influence of
other grains. Cash demand was quiet
und no new export business was re
ported. Soma eelllng In that cereal Is
duo to fears of competition with Cana
dian oats.

Ion and Commissioner MacStay's staff
In tho Commissioner's office. Chief Ken
lon announced;
"It Is our hope that we will be able
to restore traffic to normal .by next
Tuesday. Wo will take every possible
advantage of the light traffic conditions
which will prevail during tho Saturday
half holiday, Sunday and the Washing
ton's Birthday holiday Monday."
In addition to tho Increases In pay
announced efforts were made to put
backbono In the proposed - three day
drive by the following methods:
A threat to sndw removal contractors.
Celestlno DeMareo and Joseph Marone,
to take legal steps to set aside their
contracts unless they give markedly Im
proved service to-day.
To put policemen In charge as super
visors over street cleaning gangs.
to extend tho use of policemen and
firemen wherever practicable.
An advertising campaign to Induce
more men to enter the street cleaning
service.
The possibility of a strike was dis
closed when a delegation frflm the Cen
tral Federated- Union appeared before
the Board of Estimate In support of a
communication that the. demands of
the Brotherhood of Teamsters for more
pay. for all employees used by tho De
partment of Street Cleaning on onow
and garbage removal, and for tlmo and
a half overtlmo for Sunday and holiday
workv had been approved.
Thomas Fitzgerald, a former em
ployee of tho department, told tho board

"Were you the man who started
trouble tit Greonpolnt last Sunday?"
asked Mayor Hylan.
Fitzgerald said ho was not, but he
knew there had been trouble and more
might bo 'expected If the matter Is not
attended to soon.
"Do you threaten a strike?" demanded
the Mayor.
"No." replied Fitzgerald. "Tho men
have workednhard and will continue to
do so, but we think they should be'pald."
He said tho mens were appealing to
the Board of Estimate because they had
been able to get no action from the
Commissioner.
Henry H. Curran, President of tho
Borough of Manhattan, then sought to
relieve the situation by a motion to pay
the men for overtime, but merely
brought the Ire of the Mayor and Comp
troller Craig down upon his head.
"You aro only making trouble for
this board," said the Mayor.
"Tho Manhattan President Is nlavlnir
politics and "probably has received his
orders. He is going to be brought to
book for his political play," added
Comptroller Craig.

ing; by class Francis II. Slsson. vice
president pf tho Guaranty Trust Com
pan), proposed last night that the trust
comianles also organize and have a plat
form, Mr. Slsson was a speaker nt the
annutl dinner of the trust companies of
tho lilted States at the Waldorf-Astoria.
The fundamental plank of the platform
which lie suggested was that democracy
must bo preserved against autocracy
everywhere in Washington as well as
Benin, In labor councils as well as ln
capitalistic circles.-
'ell as imong bankers. .Such a plat-
jorm would say. said Mr. Slsson, that
labor will1 defeat its own numosn nnd
biing hardship upon itself and all other
classes as bng ns It permits the country
to suffer from underproduction.
Uxal II. McCarter, president of the Fi
delity Trust Company of Newark, N. J.,
and chalrmaa of tho dinner, called for
tho formation of a new political party.
"I'vo lo3t faith In the Republican
party," ndded Mr. McCarter. "I feel
there should te a new coalition party,
which should have "America first, last
and all the time" for Its motto. Thn
bankers can do nothing better than work.
lor me election of a business man of
high character vho will hark back for
his principles to the Constitution and
Ocorge Washington and give us the kind
of government Lincoln described ln tho

"Our roads have not been operated
oy tno uovernment," Mr. Medley, said,
"but they have had to meet the atnnd.
ards of wages and other operating ex
penses set by the Government and, weJ
nave nan v carry passengers for a

tlemen can exact twenty-nine cents. 1
am not going to tell you hero In this
room what I think of our municipal au
thorities. 1 do not hesitate to tell them
those things face to face In another
place. -
"But I will tell you this," continued
Mr. Hedley In Impassioned Jones, "that
never while I live will they ect munlel.

probably wIIL But they may do their

lutely false. There was no meetln
even." '
