Government may recapture earnings 1ti j
excess of ? per cent, on railroad prop- !
erty investment for the benefit of weak
carriers.
The Last Hour.
Traders have come in the last few
days to take last hour violent advances
as more or less a matter of course. In '
fact many commission house traders!
sat Idly by watchinpr the ticker most of
yesterday and bought stocks about an i
hour before the close to catch the last i
hour jump which they were confident
would come. The final demonstration

pared favorably with I t of Thursday
In Mexican Petroleur Traders are
wondering what stock will be picked
out to lead the last hour advance
to-<Jay and Monday, Ac.?If such ad
vances come.
)
Crucible Steel.
The short interest In Crucible Steel,
which has been in about the same posi
tion for weelv past, suddenly found
itself rather uncomfortable yesterday. '
Operators responsible for the move
ments of the stock decided that the
time was ripe for a bit of squeezing and
proceeded to squeeze. Tt was reported
after the close that a large demand for
calls on Crucible appeared In the New
street market, but that it went unsatis
fied for the most part.
Gulf States m Feature.
The same group which created a few
weeks ago a sensation by strong-arming ;
Gulf States Steel up the price list for a
total of more than 20 points in a day
decided to get busy again yesterday and,
after warning everybody within range
to get out of the way. started. None of
the big fellows In the Street can say
that he was shot In the back or any
thing like that as the group sent a sheaf j
of telegrams around to various wire
houses and others before the opening 1
advising them of a big move in Gulf
States and urging them to get aboard.
In most cases the telegrams were thrown
into waste baskets with a shrug. When
the market opened, with Gulf States up
4 points over night, those who had .
thrown away their messages pricked up ?
their ears and within a short time, on
good sized trading, Gulf States had ad
vanced to 78, a gain of nearly 7 points.
Then came a lull, followed by more
heavy buying, which carried the stock
to above 83. the closing mark, with a
net gain of more than 11 points. A
levsr used in putting the stock up was
circulation of the story that the com
pany's banking Indebtedness had been
nearly liquidated.
Allied Chemical.
The sharp reaction in Allied Chemical
shares yesterday morning was a reflec- ,
tion of the rather poor earnings state
ment for 1921. Traders failed to analyze
carefully the corporation's balance
sheet, however, which showed cash and
cash assets of close to 130.000.000, with
more than >11,000,000 of bank loans en
tirely paid off. Insiders in the company
declare that even that statement falls
to show the company's pr?Mnt position.
Since January 1. they declare, business
lias Improved to such an extent tha# a
balance sheet struck at this tlino would
appear far better than that for the end
of the year.
Call Bfoaejr.
Call money ruled at per cent, al)
day in the New York Stock Exchange
yesterday, while outside loans were of
fered for as low as 4 per cent. In the
time money market there was a fairly
good demand for ninety day paper at
per cent.
Frisco's Annaat Meeting.
In the St. Louts-San Francisco Rail
way's annual meeting, to be held in St.

Referring to the plan for extending
the company's European loan, E. J.
Pearson, president, said It is confidently
expected that if the plan be carried
through the company will be able to
take care ?f the debentures and other
obligations maturing between the end of
1922 and 1929. He added that the physi
cal condition of the property, except for
an increase In the number of freight
cars in bad order, was about the sanv
as at the end of Government control.
He aald the management was giving*
close attention to the New Haven's op
erating problems as a terminal carrier
and expressed the hope that success
would attend efforts directed toward a
more equitable division of the rates on
freight interchanged with the trunk lines.
Drawing attention to the Inroads on
railroad traffic made by motor trucks for
short haul, less than car load tonnage.
Mr. Pearson declared little progress
could be made toward combating th!<
competition pending ttie development of
taxation and regulation of the operation
of motor truck*.
Virtually all of the New Haven's trol
ley lines showed Improved earnings.
Negotiations looking to final settlement
of the road's accounts with the Railroad
Administration are approaching their
final ?tage.
