FACT AND GOSSIP
IN BUSINESS
WORLD
By B. C. FORBES.
NEW YORK. May 4 —New securities
aggregating $1,027,026,000 have been sold
since January 1 by American corpora
tions.
This is almost $200,000,000 more than
the issue during the first four months of
1911, and fully $300,000,000 in excess of
1910
April contributed $218,026,000. an in
crease of $39,189,000 over last year.
Two influences have stimulated the flo
tation of bonds, notes and stocks this
year. Forst, money rates have been low,
and. secoßd, confidence in an early re
vival of prosperity has returned
Militating against the absorption of new
corporate loans, especially railroad is
sues. has been the widespread fear that
regulation might go too far for the com
fort of investors.
Latterly, industrial enterprises have
thrown off the timidity be.gntten by the
prosecutions under the Sherman law.
The events which have followed the so
called “dissolution'' of the Oil and Tobac
co trusts are not calculated to stay the
hand of enterprising capitalists disposed
to form new combinations.
Public Less Antaqonlstlc.
Above and beyond this, however, is the
conviction that public sentiment is less
antagonistic to capital, that fair play in
stead of revenge is now- desired, and that
really injurious legislation will not elicit
popular applause.
The quietness in trade which was a
feature of the opening months of the
current year meant the release of vast
sums from mercantile and industrial
channels. This, in turn, brought down
interest charges in reserve cities. And
cheap money, of course, facilitates the
distribution of securities
The railijbads are peculiarly anxious to
have on hand ample funds to provide
the additional facilities which they be
lieve will be necessary to handle their
traffic this fall. Every railroad presi
dent in the United States fears that, if
bumper crops be garnered, there will be a
serious blockade on transportation lines.
At the same time certain managers hes
itate to invite investors to subscribe for
loans, the stability of which might be
imperiled by a continuance of harassing
decisions by the Interstate commerce
commission or by fresh advances in
wages.
Railroad President’s View.
On this subject, a very prominent rail
road president writes me as follows:
Assuming that railroad companies ’
can obtain the large sums believed
to be necessary for their future de
velopment. are they justified, under
existing conditions, in taking such ac
tion as will large! j’ increase their
fixed charges beyond the extent re
quired by their absolute necessities?
Os course, when people invest their
money in railway securities, they do
so because they are encouraged to be
lieve, and do believe, that they will re
ceive the specified rate of interest, or
because they expect to receive the
established rate of dividend, and I
am sure no honest or conscientious
railroad executive would be willing
to accept money from investors unless
he felt reasonably certain that the
conditions justified their confidence.
Railroads Will Borrow Soon,
The prospects are that the majority of
roads in need of funds will come into the
market now that the whole rr./lroad sit
uation is to be investigated by an in
fluential commission of arbitration.
If one were asked to hazard an opin
ion of the outlook, the reply would be that
a very moderate advance in wages seems
probable and later slightly more generous
treatment of the roads in considering re
quests for permission to increase certain
freight rates.
During April the railroads floated $115,-
865,009 securities, or $35,927,000 below the
corresponding figure of a year ago.
The brighter view now taken of indus
trial prospects is reflected by the emis
sion of $102,409,090 bonds, notes and
stocks, an increase of no less than $75,-
116.000 over last year.
Seven per cent industrial preferred
stocks are to play an important part in
1912 financing, one house, not recognized
as a leader in the field, has distributed
$100,009,000 of these stocks within the
There's a Bright Future
ahead of the man who buys 20
acres we have within one-half
mile of the city limits, fronting
1,400 feet on a splendid road,
for $225 per acre. If you want

vestment which will double with
in two or three years, we know
nothing to equal this.

DAILY COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS. May 4 —Liverpool
came in unexpectedly good on futures,
which closed about 5 points higher than
due, while spot prices are 1 point lower;
sales 5,000 bales. The strength in fu
tures is brought in connection with the
latest professional developments in New-
York. and to some extent probably due
to exaggerated rain and flood reports
The weather so far this month has been
quite favorable over the greatest part
of the cotton belt, heavy rains being con
fined tn a limited area in the central
belt. Cloudy weather has prevailed dur
ing the past 24 hours and scattered show
ers have occurred They were mostly light
to moderate, except in the Mobile and
New- Orleans coast district, where heavy
rains occurred.
Indications are for clearing and cooler
in the Western states; cloudy, scattered
showers today and probably Sunday in
the Central and Eastern states followed
by generally fair weather Monday, and
the prospects are favorable for good
weather during the coming week.
Professional news indicates a decided
split among the powers in New York.
Two houses distributed very bullish night
messages containing gloomy prophecies
about the new’ crop, and predicting an
enormous consuming power, while others
seem to confirm recent news that an im
portant leader in the past bull move
ment has turned.
Our market opened about 10 points up
to conform to Liverpool, and was soon
carried to 11.48 for October, on general
buying based on the weather and the
bullish New York wires. Developments
in New York are closely watched. Mani
festation of power in the present profes
sional contest may occasionally give the
market an appearance of strength, but
the fact remains that the attention is
centered on the unfavorable crop condi
tions in a small part of the belt, whereas,
the progress in the greater portion of
the belt seems to be overlooked, and also
that we carry into the next season a
well supplied consuming trade and a large
over-supply.

Why Not This Bank?
ORGANIZED NEARLY HALF A
century ago, and conducted and de
veloped along conservative, yet pro
gressive lines, the ATLANTA NATION
AL BANK has steadily gained in
strength, in scope and in the confidence
of the people. Implicit confidence led to ex
tensive relations throughout this state,
which, in turn, induced a large increase
in the Bank’s resources and continual and
intimate relations with the leading com
mercial and manufacturing interests of
this section.
Why not select THIS for YOUR
BANK. Mr. Business Man? Think what
such an association would mean to you!

IN SIM LISTS

Fractions, With Gains and
Losses About Equal.
By CHARLES W. STORM.
NEW YORK. May 4.—Changes of base
on the part of the bear operators were
emphatically evident at the 'opening of
the stock market today and only scat
tered covering prevented sharp declines
throughout the list. As it was most of
the issues were off from Friday's clos
ing.
Canadian Pacific and the Harriman
stocks were the exceptions to the general
tone Canadian Pacific was again bullish
in London with the result that it opened
here at ■’’k higher. Southern Pacific was
up in and Union Pacific made a sim
ilar gain.
United States Steel common was 14 low
er at the opening, and quickly lost an
other quarter.
There was a fair demand for the cop
pers, Amalgamated gaining b, and Amer
ican Smelting ® 9 .
Erie Common was up ’*. but the pre
ferred was off a ft'll point
Southern Railway, Reading and Atchi
son were unchanged
Northern Pacific, In which there has
been accumulation for some time, lost 's.
A fractional gain was made In New-
York Central. At the end of the first
fifteen minutes a steadier tone developed.
The curb was irregular.
Americans in London closed above New
York parity. There was heavy- buying
of Canadian I’acific tn London.
The market closed steady.
Governments unchanged; other bonds
steady.
