COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL NEWS REPORTED FOR THE CALL
SUGARS STRONG
ON GOOD NEWS
Palmer More Active on Oil Ex
change; Money Piles Up in
Iniand Cities
Conduct of Pittsburg Clearing
House Interests Bankers
All Over Country
PAUL SINSHEIMER
New strongrth was imparted ta 'the
sugars yesterday following additional
advices from Washington, which in
dicated that drastic tariff legislation
m unlikely. There was some re
covery among the Hawalia*ns, Onomea
selling op to 51 and Hawaiian com
mercial and sugar to 44 li- .
' *, ♦ #
Palmer has been more active on the
oil exchange, and certain brokerage
houses in Bush street have given cre
dence to the reports that English capi
tal had purchased ' heavily into the
company. The street Mill is without
authentic information, however. The
negotiations are being handled by
Frank L. Brown, president of the Pal
mer, who Is now abroad.
♦ * *
The March circular of the Fourth
National bank of New York comments
on. the Pittsburgr suit testing the powers
of the Clearing House association of
that city in a way that interested
bankers: "A great deal of interest
attaches to the outcome of the suit
brought at Pittsburg to test the rij?ht
of the Pittsburg: Clearing: House asso
ciation to enforce rules relative to the
collection of checks, notes, drafts, bills
of exchange and other matters. This
suit is based/ among: other things, on
the claims that the action of the clear
ing- house would interfere with private
business; that it violates the anti
trust law. and that it is in other re
upects contrary to the purposes- for
which a clearing house association is
formed. V
"This litigation is of the utmost im
portance to bankers throughout; the
United States since it brings before
the courts the validity of the clearing
house organization, the right of such
associations to. employ independent ex
aminers and the legality of the Well
formulated • system of supervision as
practiced by the associated banks 'in
the large cities of this country. *
"In answer to the allegations of the
complaint it is urged that it has never
been the aim of the associated banks
of Pittsburg to adopt oppressive meas
ures at all or to take action which
would disturb individual control or
which would interfere with the business
of any single institution. It is urged
also that the movement proposed is
decidedly in the interest of sound bank
ing management and* with the idea'of
reducing operating expenses and that it
represents a protective measure which
applies to all banks alike." N
' The Harriman National bank of New
York has received from the comptroller
of the currency authority to conduct its
business with a capital increased from
$200,000 to $500,000. As surplus has
likewise been increased, the bank now
has an aggregate, in -tliose two items
of more than $2,000,000. Deposits are
about $8,000,000. • 't " '- r ' "--I
Money still is piling up in the inland,
cities. At Chicago the state banks show,
great increases in deposits, 21 of the 37'
In the city alone reporting a gain of
nearly $17,000,000 over December. The
savings banks of that city also show
marked gains and the purchases of
bonds by these institutions have been
increased. In Pittsburg 28 national
l.anks. in response to'the comptroller's
call, show a gain of $5,000,000 over.the
last date of call. At St. Louis, too, de
posits are very heavy, and. although
there has beeu ■ betterment in the de
mand for funds, the supply is said to be
plentiful.
*■■--■« *
Kuhn, Loeb & Co. have purchased
from the Chicago and Eastern Illinois
Railroad company, which is controlled
by the St. Louis and .^an Francisco,
$2,680,000 5 per cent purchase money
first lien coal bonds, and has sold
them to Investors.

ACTIVE STOCK
ISSUES RISE
'NEW YORK. March Early j
dullness and Irregularity followed ]
by greater activity and a pro- <
nounced hardening .of prices, j
which sent: some of the active is- . ,
sues to the highest level .of the^
present movement, BUinmariz«»s to- ]
day's operations on the stock ex- (
change.. ' ■ .. .'
News respecting the British coal, ;
strike was virtually unchanged, i
and at the outset there was a dls-. ;
position to -view c the . situation •,
with discouragement, An adverse. 1
factor was found in 1 the announce- '
roent that the .Washington gov- ,
eminent purposes ', to . instituto . >
fresh' proceedings against the 1
Standard Oil company because of ,
thf alleged, desire of *that com-
pany: to / * acquire*""some of - the /,
larger Independent companies \in •<
the southwest.' - > |
Another batch of railroad earn- ,
Ings, only a few of which were at -1
all favorable, and; indications that ; ;
the interstate commerce commis- <
■fan will take Important action <
against the, ' express companies ■_,
were bearish features. .. I *■'--■'■ (
Such significance ,as ; today's ,J
movement possessed attached in -n0..,
small measure to the continued--;
strength of the copper shares. ,
Amalgamated Copper crossed 70 '
for the first time in some months ;
and approached its best price of ;<
the previous year. The steady ad- ►]
vance of this stock, has been one.,
'of the mystifying features of the <
market.' Foreign demand for the ]
metal- continues apace., but'"homo. i
consumers are holding back in ]
the hope of some price recessions. ,
In the ; way of new financing the <
Pennsylvania company, which Is ]
controlled by the railway system <
of that name, announced the sale of <
several million 4 per cent collat- ,
eral trust bonds to a Pittsburg 1
financial institution and other ;
dew Is of like character are under
negotiation.
The Par is bourse was firm, but
in Berlin prices weakened because
of Increased tension In the Indus
trial situation. ''-. " ;
Bonds were firm and more ac
tive. Total sales (par* value),*
$2,486,000.
United States government bonds
were, unchanged on call.
NEW YORK. 'March 7.— E. V.
ITutton & Co.'s wire says: "The
stock market suffered a little re
action the last hour, but the tone
continued strong and many who
had been doubters were converted
to*th*» faith and proclaimed their
belief that the bull market of 1912
•had begun. American Smelting;
and Refining and indeed the whole
metal group, were helped by the
statement of Dow. .Tones & Co.
that in the year ending Decem
ber 31 last the smelting company
earned 12 per cent on its common
* stock. At its high point Union
Pacific showed a gain of 2*4 points
and Its rise was said to be based
on nothing: more than the cer
tainty that the 10 per.cent divi
dend could r be. maintained. Amal
gamated Copper sold,up to 70S, '
and there was expectation of fa
vorable statement from the • pro
ducers" association."
