a surprise to almost all outside of the

was forced in both the wholesale and

That this ehortasje Is but temporary
is also a conclusion that haa been
reached by the trade. Butter prices at
this time of the year are usually erratic,
but there Is generally a downward trend
to quotations.
With the -crane rrowlnr fast at prac
tically all coast points, tha outtrut of

By Broadatn Wall
New Tork, March 16. In the past
week there have been distinct devel
opments any one of which in normal
times would have been sufficient to
check the worst kind of a bear mar
ket and start prices upward. Tha
combination haa had the effect of
exciting- Wall street and forcing wild
covering of short contract, but many
persons are still In doubt as to
whether the Improvement will con
tinue. Tho four big developmenta
in the order of their Importance to
the st)ck market are:
First, the demand of the sonata for
an explanation from' the federal re
serve board of the usurious money rates
that have been charged by the banks.
Second, reaffirmation by the supreme
court of the old pest that tn valuing
railroads the cost as of today must be
taken and not the original cost.
Third, the supreme court decision
that stock dividends 'are not taxable aa
Income : and. fourth, announcement that
the British are to ship some 8200.000.OCO
of gold to America in settlement of the
Anglo-French bonds, some of this to
arrive In the very near future.
For a generation the courts and the
politician have been fighting the great
corporations with the announced Inten
tion of destroying them. Now, suddenly,
the corporations are all right It is the
first time fundamentals have been taken
to the supreme court since Roosevelt
started the fight Pro4erty Interests,
therefore, feel safe. Men .can now go
ahead and work with tha belief that
what they earn will belong to them and
their children.
The stock dividend decision makes a
declaration of such dividends by the
railroads an easy matter and confirms
many stock dividends already declared.
Among the Industrials there are corpo
rations whose assets have grown out
of proportion to the stock issues and
there will be declarations evening up
these situations. The United States
may look forward to a perfect orgy of
stock dividends.
The importation of gold to take care
of the Anglo-French bonds will tend to
relieve the money situation because of
the sentimental influence of gold, even
If it is not allowed to mingle with the
other money of the country. There is
much dispute over the exact time and
method of shipping the gold to America,
but the highest authority gives assur
ance of its arrival and large volume.
