Treasury Offering Popular. The market appears well pleased over the Treasury’s offering and in- dications point to a possible over- subscription. The rate, 3% per cent, coincided with the market for a seven: month issue. The amount, howev: was somewhat smalier than general'y | expected, in view of the volfume of second Liberty loan bonds still out- standing, some $760,000,000. It is believed that most of the sub- scriptions for the new issue will be | cash; in other words that the amount of second 4%s and second 4s turned in in exchange will be relatively all. Remaining holders of second | liverty loan bonds*are evidently not | of the class who would wish to con- funds into a short term Treasaty issue. Many are disposed to wait and get cash for their bonds on November 15, when the issue matures. Other Financial Notes. While there was no trading in Washington Railway ectric com: mon here or in New \ulk yesterday, its sensational leap to 460 in New York Saturday was still being dis- cussed in the local financial district today.

By the Associated Press. BERLIN, November 8.—The Cologne Gazette today said that it had learned from one of the directors of the Ger- man Steel Trust that the financial po- sition of the trust and its gross profit E confidently expected to enable the payment of a 6 per cent dividend for the past year. The director also said that danger threatened the economic life of the nation from the present social legis. Jation, especially from the three-shift system introduced in the mining in- dustry, and from the high cost of ma- eport of the Ger- st closing a strained | position, was one of the con. tributing causes to a hectic flurry on the Berlin Boerse yesterday, in which some shares lost as high as 38 points, compared with the Saturday close. A passage in the report believed to rtially responsible for the slump ‘omplete stagnation of a great part of Germany's economic life, par- ticularly in the coal and iron indus- within a very short time there is complete reorganization of Germany's economic and financial policy and also unless the burdens imposed on Ger- man industries are not only not fur- ther increased, but, on the contrary, considerably reduced.” This was regarded in Berlin as sec- onding the warning sounded by S Parker Gilbert, agent general for rep: rations, against undue expenditures ! Germany and the negotiations of loans. CHICKENS HIGHER: TURKEYS DECLINE Fairly Large Shipments of Rabbits Moving Well. Meats Are Steady. Spring chickens, low last week, due to heavy receipts without correspond. ing increase in demands, advanced several cents yesterday and today. Turkey prices took a slight drop. Dealers are receiving fairly large shipments of rabbi from nearby states and distant points, the trapped stock being in particularly good con- dition, while some of the shot rab- bits have anything but an attractive appearance. Consumers are willingly buying both classes of rabbits, however, prices de- pending entirely upon size and condi- tion of the game. Good stock is bring- ing advanced prices, retailers asking as much as 85 to 90 cents for them. A continued firm condition of the butter and egg market was reported this morning, meat prices remaining about the same as those reported yes- terday. Snow early this morning did not interfere with trade or keep re- tailers from reaching market at the usual early hours. Today’s Wholesale Prices.

COTTONESTIMATE | OF GREAT IMPORT Price Growers Get for Un- sold Part of Crop Hangs on Tomorrow’s Figure. BY J. C. ROYLE, Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, November $.—The cotton growers of America today have something like 4,000,000 bales of the 1927 crop still to sell. The price they obtain for this cotton will de- pend to no small degree on the Gov- ernment estimate of the crop and the ginning report, which will be made tomorrow. The South is almost a unit in be- leving that this estimate will certain- y not be larger than the total of 12,678,000 bales forecast a month ago. Hundreds of good judges belicve the aross will be considerably less than this previous estimate. Th. growers estimate that between 9,800,000 and 10,000,000 bales of the crop were ginned to November 1, and fully 80 per cent of this amount has not passed out of the hands of the growers, The spinners and the cotton mer- chants who buy on call and wait for a favorable opportunity in the market to buy in their hedges and tirus fix the price on the cotton, both on call and hedges, for wheir account, are hoping that the rnment report smorrow will lower the market. The South i very long end of the hedges and seems in- clined to stand pat and wait for the spinners to start buying. Marketed for Less. The farmers themsclves the cotton already sold K marketed for probably a g of a billlon dollars less than would have been received if the Departs ment of Agriculture had refrained from making any comment as to the probable trend of prices. They also cite the controversy between Secre- tary of Agriculture Jardine and Sec- retary Hester of the New Orleans Cotton Exchange as to the carry- over from the 1926 crop. Secretar ardine, it is felt, practically has re- f||l(‘d his big figures of a carry-over 00,000 bales, by his atement 3 per cent of the which this total was taken from private sources and were not_official. It the Department of Agriculture reduces fits previous estimate, this development in the controversy over the carry-over may prove helpful to the market for the remaining un- picked, unginned, and unsold cotton, according to Southern experts. Preliminary figures on world con- sumption of American Hnt cotton are expected to show a new high record, and according to some recogs perts the amount a ’l|lnhlfl this for American spinners’ taking and fn! export will be only around 15,800,000 They that if Furope and Asia took every hale of cotton left by the American spinners their supp!: feel fl t heen would be 200,000 bales more than the | amount they imported last year. Taking Advantage of Price. This is having a decided bearing on the situation of the textile mills. One company in New England, for ex- ample, has recently increased its divi- dend rate from $8 to $10 a share. An- other concern, which has not taken equal advantage of the cotton price situation, has been forced to reduce s by 10 per cent. Still another textile company which some months ago wa don its plant in N a profit of $410.40; cal year as wgainst a deficit of $649,- The management ex- surplus was provided w material prices and by profit on inventorics. Some textile manufacturers who have been com- plaining bitterly over heavy inven- tories of cheap cotton goods are now mightily glad that they have them. plains that the by the rise in r: ., Baltimore Markets BALTIMORE, November 8 (\po al).—White potatoes, 150-pound sacks, i 1 .00; sweet o 00; I‘rlwmls sprouts, 2.0 te, 1 0; lettuce, cr 3.0024.00; kale, bushel, 2.00; lima beans. b et, 1.00a pounds, 1.00a1.75; peppers, pumpkins, 100, 1.00a2.00; 4 savoy cab. 5 »plnarh bushel, basket, 40290; te, 1.00a basket, 12a18; ori pears, hn"hel 1.00: shel, 1.00a2.25; Keifer pears, 40a60.

TUESDAY, MICHIGAN BODY SCORES FORD-SHARE SALES PLAN ‘Wilmington, Del., Firm's Proposal to Issue “Bankers’ Stock” at $10 Against Deposit Frowned On. By the Associated Press. LANSING, Mich, Novemhpr 8.— The Michigan State Securities Com- mission today expressed its sharp di approval of a proposal by a Wilming- ton, Del., company to sell part shares of Ford Motor of Canada stock. The proposal. which is being made by mail to Michigan investors, the commission says, contemplates the issuance of “bankers' shares in de- nominations of $10 and secured under a trust agreement providing for the ance of 100 bankers’ shares nst cach share of Ford of Canada stock deposited with a_ trustee.” “Inasmuch as the present marki price of IFord of Canada is approxi- mately and there is being issued agai each share deposited 100 hankers’ shares at $10 each, or a total of $1,000, it is evident that it is a scheme to entrap and deceive those who are not familiar with market value-” the commission says. “Last year the Ford Motor Co. of | canada paid ditidends of $10 per share and on that basis investors in the called bankers’ shares would receive a return of 1 per cent on their invest- WHEAT GOES LOWER ON ARGENTINA NEWS Better Weather in Southern Hemi- sphere Bearish Factor—Corn Price Points Upward. | By the Assaciated Press, CHICAGO, November 8.—With re- ports at hand that weather in Argen- tina has become favorable, wheat aver- aged lower in price today during the early dealings.

News of better weather in Argentina was somewhat offset by winiering condi- tions likely to delay the movemen® of wheat in territory both north and south of the Canadian line.

Main 9486 Why We Deal in Bonds Only 'ORPORATE securities fall, in general, into two classes —stocks and bonds. And per- haps the best demonstration of the superiority of bonds, for both safety and dependable income, is that in any distribution of corporate funds the bonds come first. Before the stockholders are even considered, the bond-holders must be taken_care of. It is because bonds are the safest and also, in our opinion, the most consistently profitable form of investment, that the banking house of J. A. W. Iglehart & Company confines its offerings to bonds only. We maintain an Engineering and Statistical Department to investigate and analyze the security behind bond issues, and to select those which appear most desirable for recommenda- tion to our clients.
