West Wall Street. New Tork. Aug. 30. Agsia today it was not so much any actual changes in toe labor situation that influenced the mar- 1 nan ei ' w job toh" . J Tiction that pessimistic f ''-'v,' t '7 t political effect snd 1 1 f' were unwarranted. Wall Street l i vtht decided thxt. bere and there the next few industrial plants be hampered for lack of a proper fuel supply, the bituminous mines are rapidly get ting back to a maxi mum output, and that any serious curtailment of manufacturing is urt 1 kely. So far as the shopmen's strike is con cerned, this has never been a matter for the investment community to worry about. The latest' statistics on cascadings eoTering" the week ending August 18 showed a substan tial gain oTer preceding week and an increase of 41,073 cars orer the same period a year ago. This gain could not be attributed to a larger haul of coal, for the union mine in the third week of August- hTe scarcely had time to get under way. It was due principally to the general merchandise moToment and. be sides, it gare a further impression in the com .parison with 1921 of what the enormous strain upon transportation facilities will be when the huge coal shipments and the autumn grain traffic resume. Railway f hares as a rule came pretty close to equaling their preTious high point. In some piws these records were topped. The rise in industrials was tcij e-eneral and was accom panied by a larger Tolume of trading. Whether this indicated an increasing public interest in the market was a question. But it was cer tain that the way the security list has stood up against the teat of the last few weeks lias in spired both on the part of the intending' out side buyers and the Wall street pools, a well. In the early part of the day foreign, ex changes were pretty weak. German marks'' lost the greater part of the previous day's gain, so did French francs. But in the afternoon rates strengthened all around. These fluctuations represented evidently nothing more than the varying speculation idea of the moment to the decision of the reparations committee regarding a German moratorium. Shares of Northwestern railroads, including Canadian Pacific, which made a new high rec ord, and shaTes of the Anthracite coal roads were foremost in the advance in that section. Buying of tlie anthrsjnte stocks had In view the rather : well defined hope held out in the press dispatches from Washington that the lat est attempt to compromise the anthracite strike would succeed. The one exception to the rise on the railway list were Chicago ft Alton bonds and stocks, which broke very badly on rumors of an impending reorganization. The las thour brought some further inter esting testimony as to the ascendency of the forces working for higher prices. Wall street gassip started a story going that the federal trade commission was about to put it foot down on the two big independent steel merg ers. Apparently there was no real sound basis for this report: officials concerned pro fessed not to have heard anything about it, but it served as a pretext for a drive against the independent steel shares, under which they fell away a joint or so rather rapidly. Imme diately, however, the belling movement got under way it was offest by a few more striking demonstrations in the railway equipment stocks. Baldwin Locomotive and American locomotive, the two leaders of this group, rushed up to new highs. The weekly Iron Trade Journals report a Tery confused situation resulting from the wage increases and the subsequent general raising of prices. These price advances have been sub stantial and so sharp that they have confused sellers and buyers alike. Inasmuch as the mills are reluctant to accept new business for future deliverer until price conditions become more stabilized it is impossible to judge whethefWr not the price increases will result in a falling off in the demand. WOOL MANUFACTURERS MORE ACTIVE IX BOSTOX MARKET Boston, Aug. SO. Independent wool man ufacturers are slightly more active in the wool market as a result of the fair volume of sample orders they have booked for spring goods and hte trade anticipates their activities will in crease as reorders make their appearance. 'arpet wools were firm today, reflecting the steadiness 01 the IJverpool Last India wool ales and the demand for thete grades from manufacturers in tlie Philadelphia district.

HIGH YIELD w as wen as SAFETY The First Mortgage 6 Bonds of the CENTRAL COAL & COKE COMPANY offer the investor an excellent opportunity for high yield, as well as safety of principal and interest. This company is engaged in the mining and selling of coal and the manufac turing and selling of lumber. Its business has been organized and operated continuously since 1871. Its operations, together with subsidiary and con trolled operations, extend into Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Wyo ming, Louisiana, Texas and Oregon. As security for a $4,500,000 issue of bonds, this Company has given an abso lute first mortgage on property conservatively appraised at $26,000,000. That is, for every $1000 bond there is $5700 of first mortgage security. The same good management that has conducted the affairs of this Company for the past twenty years is now in charge. In this period of time the average net operating earnings of this Company were equal to six times the average interest requirements on this issue of bonds. From our investigation of the Central Coal & Coke Company and its business, we unhesitatingly recommend these bonds as a sound security to be included in any conservative investor's list.
