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."
