Wall Street Week Ends With Small Trading Volume
Market activity was subdued with total weekly transactions just over 40 shares. The New York Central and Hudson River refinancing plan was approved by the Second District Public Service Commission, while Lake Shore and successors face future consolidation considerations. Virginian Railway earnings rose sharply, and Southern Pacific saw investor interest ahead of a 1 1/2 percent quarterly dividend. Bond yields fell as copper and steel shares weakened and foreign manufacturers intensified efforts in the U.S. market.

Rail finance authority cites Paish on rising interest for US railroads
The article reports on Sir George Paish asserting that US railroad financing faces a persistent high interest regime. It traces Harriman era views, 4 percent standard rate debates, and the shift to short-term notes as long-term funds dried up. It notes negotiations for Portland to Tacoma trackage rights and Harriman's stance on 4 percent as the fair rate.
