Financial notes on gold, mergers, and stock plans abroad
The Adriatic carried $2 million in gold bought in London for New York bankers. A New York syndicate led by Equitable Trust and Blair & Company oversubscribed $12.5 million Union Tank Car gold notes with smaller allotments. Detroit reports hint a Maxwell and Chalmers merger could be announced soon. Russo Polish tensions buoy wheat, then markets retreated. Central Aguirre Sugar plans a 100 percent stock dividend, raising capital from $2 million to $6 million. Morris & Co and Chicago bankers explore a $10 million note issue, with tentative plans for a stock dividend rather than public sale.
