AT FOURTH RANCOR FITJDS UEfJT Proposed Sale of Milwaukee Stock in Berlin Cause. TARiFF IRRITATES SPEAKER Conservative Leader Says Investment in Foreign Stock Raises Interest Rate and Americans Show Hostile Spirit. BERLIN, Feb. 11. Count von Kanlts, Conervatlve. in the Reichstag". Interpel lated the rovernment today regarding; what measures It proposed to take to prevent the flooding: of the German mar ket with foreign securities. When tne Count recently gave notice that he would make this inquiry be waa supposed to have in mind the current report that the Berlin Handelgesellschaft contemplated making an attempt to list the stock of the Chicago, Milwaukee & Bt. Paul Rail way on the Berlin bourse. It has been seml-offlcially announced that the Prus- Ian rovernment vis considering the ad visability of rejecting the application for this listing If made, in view of the con dition of the German gold market. Dividends Said to Be Fadded. Count von Kanitz said today: The movement of capital out of the country necessarily raises the Interest rate In Germany. The big banks prefer bringing out foreign issues to exploiting German loans owing to the bigger profits thus secured. It is astonishing with what carelessness second-rate foreign paper is admitted to the German market. The securities of the Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway belong ostensibly to the best class of investments and pay T per cent, but it is asserted, without con tradiction, that this railway recently shows reduced earnings, and that Its dividends are kept up to 7 per cent only In order not to discredit the large sums plsced In Germany. This and other American securities show fluctuations unknown in Germany. Why do not Americans kee-p tnese p- curltles for themselves? They have more money than we have. They do not find any railway material In Germany. Their high tariff renders this impossible, and the Payne tariff law permits of raising the rate against us to a maximum of 100 per cent. The investment of German capital in American railway securities only places this capital at the disposal of the Ameri can iron industry, which competes with ours in many over-seas markets, especi ally in South America. Thus the German stock market is rendered more depen dent than ever on the New York Stock Exchange and this dependence has al ready become very marked. Resentment Shown at Tariff. "We have no reason to show a con ciliatory spirit toward Americans who have not treated us with especial amia bility. After increasing their schedules they have Issued all kinds of vexing tariff regulations. Accordingly we have no occasion to dispense with a careful investigation of American railway se curities or to admit them open-handed out of pure friendship. Foreign securi ties must be admitted only when, first, the home demand for capital has been fully met: second, national advantages are to be gained: and. third, these se curities have been selected with the greatest care."
