August movements on the stock e day were variable and greater part of the time displa neral tendenc Realizing sules continued in some quarters at the “ame time that new buying was go- ing on in other There was a story of an impending 10 per cent stock dividend on Norfolk and Western, and while this did t et beyond the status of street gossip, it was responsible for a fair upturn in the stock. Merger Stocks Strong. Shares of companies involved in the Van Sweringen merger were gen- eral strong, kecping closely in touch with the course of the new Nickel Plate stocks on the curb, The present Nickel Plate was unusually sctive at advancing prices. The fact that the new stocks started off on the curb at prices considerably below expectations, proved a stimulus to the buying. At its low of the day Colc do Fuel wis down over 20 points from its high and had lost practically all the advance ba ed upon the oil dis- coveries. The gain has been undon: simply becau no official information has been forthcoming as to these oil properties were likely be worth. Sugar stocks were bought on the prevailing signs that the Sugar mar- ket was headed upward s it apt to be at this scason of t American Woolen Sold.

The new junior stock will be issued on the basis of one share for every four shares of the old com- mon outstanding. There is talk of an increase in the dividend which, if maintained at only the current rate will be $4.80 a share. This would megn a return of 8 per cent wjth the | common selling around 60.

The remarkable success of the $30, 000,000 Belgian loan was the pri cipal incident of the day. Two montks ago the announcement that a foreign offering of such an amount had been subscribed four times over would have evoked enthusiasm in the investment market.. But today the eftect upon the general bond list was very slight. CLOSING IS HEAVY. Selling Pressure Most Acute in | Last-Hour Trading. | By the Associated Press NEW YORK, September prices lost ground in today's market after an early display of strength by | the sugar, public utility and railroad | shares. Temporary abandonment of | pool operations encouraged a resump- | tion of bear selling which was par- ticularly effective in the textile and | merchandising issues. Sales approx- imated 750,000 shares. The closing was heavy. pressure became more acute in the late trading, American Can, Davison Chemical, International Paper and American Agricultural Chemical pre- ferred being hammered down 2 to 4 points. Norfolk and Western showed independent strength, climbing nearly 3 points to 128%.

BY GEORGE T. HUGHES. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, September 3—The fea- ture of the bond market today was the demand for the new Belglan issue of- fered on Tuesday at 94. The issue was oversubscribed to such an extent that allotments were made on a 25 per cent basis, and dealers were active bidders for additional bonds. On the exchange a premium of a half point and more was paid. Other foreign bonds were about steady, with no especial activity. The same was true of the domestic issues. Dealers were not inclined to take on stock, but offerings were readily ab- sorbed, apparently for investment counts’ either of institutions or individ- uals. As far as could be seen the slightly firmer tone for money was without effect in the bond market. Lib- crtys were firm under reports of Treas- ury buying, and there were no impor- tant changes in the high-grade rails and industrials. Eries Leads Rail Liens. ‘The leaders among the rails were the Erie issues. Transactions in the general 4s and in the convertible A and B 4s were heavy.

FGHT ON SELLING OF RAILRDAD OPENS Denver & Rio Grande Now Recuperating, According to Bondholders. By the Associated Press. D iR, Colo., September 3.—The proposed foreclosure sale, reorgan- ization and future ownership and management of the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad soon will be determined as a result of a hear- ing which is set to begin here today before Judge J. F. Foster Symes of the United States District Court. The hearing is the outgrowth of the filing of & suit in foreclosure as a result of the default, by the road, of the semi-annual payment of inter- est on $38,119,000 first mortgage and refunding bLonds due February 1. 1922. The court will be asked to pass upon the application of Harold Pal- mer of New York, representing hold- er of approximately 10 per cent of the outstanding defaulted first mort- gage and refunding bonds of the road, and of Morace W. Bennett, Denver capitalist, who have asked to be per- mitted to intervene and be heard in opposition to the proposed sale and reorganization of the road. Sale Held Unnecessary. The petitions declare the proposed foreclosure and reorganization is un- necessary as a result of the “recup- erative vitality” displayed under the present Federal court receivership, and ask that the recelvership be con- tinued for at least two years more, The petitions state that the earnings of the road under the receivership have shown marked, improvement and that under such continued opers- tion it is fair to believe that at the end of two years the road could pay all of its interest obligations and st the same time take care of the sink- ing fund and be renabilltated financi- ally. Provision is made in the petition, however, for the contingency that the application for the continuation of the receivership be rejected, that the court fix the upset or auction price for the sale of the road at 342,883,875, This amount represents the total par value of the outstanding first mortgage and refunding bonds, together with accrued interest of $9,- 764,875. The par value of the mort- g:‘)lq and refunding bonds is $38,119,« Step Toward Reorganmisation. The proposed foreclpsure sale of the road is the first step in a pro- posed reorganization plan recently approved by the Interstate Commerce Commission, whereby the control of the line will pass to the joint owner- ship of the Missouri Pacific and the Western Pacific Railroads. The plan provides that the Misour! Pacific shall purchase 150,000 shares or one-half of the outstanding common capital stock of no par value of the road. —_— DIVIDENDS. Holders ot Rate. Per.

Reflecting the midsummer dullness during August, clearings for that month, which totaled $386,929,837. were the lowest for any month this year, with the exception of Febru- ary, a short month.
