STOCKS TURN UP1WABD
SEW YORK MARKET REVERSES
ITS RECEXT COCRSE.-
lioudb Arc Also Stronger Larger
- Offerings of Call Money For
eign Exchange More Active.
NEW TORK, May 25. For the first
time la several weeks the stock market
today manifested a disposition to shake
off its. apathy and pessimism, many specu
lative as well as standard share scoring
substantial gains.
Apart from the enlarged offerings of call
money, which ruled at 6 per cent, surface
conditions conveyed no definite intimations
of any material change In the country
wide stringent money situation.
Far more than the usual activity was
shown by foreign exchange, the Paris
rate strengthening -considerably, while
German remittances continued to advance,
marks approximately 3 cents, tbeir high
est quotation in many months. Sterling
eased, however, in the absence of state
ments concerning gold exports from Lon
don. industrial and commercial conditions
presented more stable aspects.
Metal issues figured more than ordinari
ly in the day's broad buying of stocks.
Coppers made considerable headway on
reports that extensive buying orders for
loreign consumption are impending. Halls
also contributed more than their usual
quota at moderate gains. Sales 8011,000
shares.
Foreign issues, notably .dominion of
Canada (113, which fell 1 Vi per cent,
were the only laggards in the bond mar
ket, where a generally strong tone pre
vailed. Total sales, par value, $16,650,000.
Did United States 4s lost ja- on call, oth
ers unchanged.
CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.
of a demand from seaboard. The con- I
solcuoua feature of the Pit tradinz was
lack: of outside purchases. Much of the I
buying was based on indications of con
evstion in the Miv delivery and talk that
industries and shippers are the" leading I
lonsrs and anxious to secure delivery. Re- I
ceipts were of fair proportions and met anj
improve ! demand from shippers, wno com
peted with Industries for spot offers. Sales
were 1 cent to 5 cents higher here, while
outside markets reported a better demand
at 2 to cents advance. The ear situa
tion is said to be growing steadily better 1
and it rs to be expected tnat trie move
ment will be materially enlaiged within
the next wdk or ten days. The order of I
the interstate commerce commission went
into effect and will continue tor au aaya.
Crop advices are mixed with complaints
of delayed planting due to wet weather
somewhat more numerous. At the moment I
the influential factors are such as to give
the market an indefinite trend with the
unfavorable weather temporarily offset
ting the prospect to Increased supplies
The latter situation seems of greater ir
portunee. Kor this reason we favor
position on the selling side on hard spots.
Oats Outside buying, stimulated by :
firmness in the cash market and reports I
of some round lets having been sold foi !
export and the seaboard during the past
few days, gave futures a strong tone, al- I
though the 00-cent level for July at
tracted considerable 'selling. Crop reports!
remain optimistic end the situation sug
gests better supplies in tne near future.
July at the close tonight was 23c higher
than a year ago, while July corn was only I
cents higher, it Is true that the oats I
crop was snort or the previous year, but
th3 relative difference would seem to dis- I
count much that is bullish. Then. too.
here is an old adtige in the trade that It
does not prove profitable to bull the tail 1
end of a short crop.

The Chase National Bank, N. "V.
The Thlinket Packing Company, established in 1902 is a pioneer m the salmon canning industry.,
It engages in every phase of the business, from the catching of fish and manufacturing of cans to the
wholesale distribution of its product.
The following important features art summarised from a letter of Mr. James T. Barron, President
and General Manager of the Company : .
1. Company has no bonds, notes or preferred stock outstanding and has ampls
cash working capital. ,
2. Net tangible assets (exclusive of valuable real estate, good will and trad
name) are valued in excess of $1,000,000.
3. Business has been built up entirely out of profits from an original invest
ment of less than $20,000.
4. Company has very valuable trap sites, secured years ago from U. S. Govern
ment, which make it independent as far as raw material is concerned.
5. Company has made no war profits. Net earnings for past TEN YEARS
(1910-19) after deducting liberal depreciation and all Federal and other taxes N .
averaged $114,492 per year; and for the past FOUR YEARS (1916-19),
after the same deductions, averaged $144,332 per year, equivalent to $1.44
per share upon its entire capital stock.
6. Based upon present capacity of 7,000,000 cans, and taking no account of the
Company's expansion program, earnings for 1920 are estimated at not less
than $400,000, or at the rate of $4.00 per share.
7. Dividends have been paid for last twelve years without interruption. Since
1910 cash dividends, including that about to be pad, amount to over
$1,000,000, or at the rate of over $1 per share yearly, on the present capi
talization. 8. Management remains in the hands of those responsible for company's
growth. '
The books of the company have been audited by Messrs. Price, Waterhouse.& Company and the
properties appraised by the-General Appraisal Company.
Legal matters in connection with the issue are being passed upon by Messrs. Goldman & Unger and
Kellogg. Emery & Cuthell for the bankers, and Messrs. Hastings & Gleason for the company.
Application will be made to list this stock on the New York Stock Exchange.
A large portion of the above stock having been
sold or applied for, we offer the balance at
