SEPCBMC SPBCLU
New Tork, May 27. London waa closed to-
for the usual Whitsuntide holiday. Ad-
from the other aide on the position of
the short Interest In .London and Berlin
war meet -satisfactory and a rood author
ity ald that Its seriousness had. been great
ly xaKerated- Until it was definitely
-kaoarn. however, that all the short Interest
had en arranged for, the money market
mm tBcsected to keeo firm.
"In the local market, with the exception
f a few specialties, the trading; was' ex
ceedingly dull. Tobacco stocks were con
spicuously strong' on buying said to be for
the Philadelphia pool headed by the "Wlden-.er-Blktas
Interest. It was said on fairly
ooJ authority that Insiders In New Tork
were rather in the dark as .to themotlve
it the upward more. Sugar fluctuated
quite a little on the uncertainty as to the de
cision of the Supreme Court on the status
or Porto Rico and the Philippines. The
railroad stocks were neglected, but the chief
support in the Southwestern group was ex
ceedingly good. Wabash Issues, after eas
ing off on scattered realizing, hardened up
again when It was found that there was a
ready market for all stock ottering. The
granger stocks were dull and neglected, al
though Union Pacific rallied from the low
figure. Even the good earnings on Atchison
failed to stimulate outside business In that
stock.
A rumor has been current- of a 4 per
cent dividend on Car and Foundry common,
but Indications do not tend to confirm it.
It Is believed that the company's business
fully justlnes an Increase of capital of $10,
000.000 to $12,000,000, and It Is the Intention to
pay for the Jackson-Sbarpe purchase, and
tho n.000,000 extension of Its plant In De
troit out of earnings.
Chicago reports an enormous movement
of general merchandise last week and offi
cials of all roads say that the tonnage
handled Is unparalleled for the time of year.
Burlington alone carried 4,000,000 pounds
more merchandise than during the same
week In 3900. Officials say that this expe
rience Is that of nearly every road center
ing at the large Western cities. There is
some talk that Chicago and Eastern Illinois
may purchase the Evansville and Terre
Haute and action Is not Impossible at the
annual meeting next week. Unusual activ
ity Is reported In the products of the Na
tional Lead Company and a maintenance of
business on this scale will show largely in
creased earnings for the vear.
There was a marked raHy in Wabash Is
sues at the close accompanied bv exceeding
ly good inside buying. Sugar was well sup
ported In spite or a little realizing In the
decision of the Supreme Court. It was not
generally believed that the abrogation of
the Porto Rlcan sugar duties would be a
serious factor. The market was dull though
out and the continued bad weather had a
depressing Influence. Money continued
steady at 2W3 per cent all day.
