from 112 to ia, with bid of 1144 on yester-
day and no stock in sight under 400 This is a
reasonable price for stock paying such large
dividends. The bonds sold at 1851. Gas stock
brought 441 for 80 shares, being the largest sale
in this security for some weeks. At one
time this was one of the most active on the list.
Loan and Trust was dull, one sale of 800
shares alone being recorded at 81, at which
price it seems to hang. American Security also
lacked animation, 25 shares selling at sol and
10 at 81. Pneumatic Gun Carriage took on
spurt, 200 shares selling at 81, on the report
that an English syndicate had offered $3.50 900
for the plant. This would be equivalent to
$3.50 per share, which will be a source of much
comfort to many patient holders.
Occasionally transaction takes place in
Pennsylvania Telephone, which was the case
yesterday, one hundred shares selling at 2S4

said to be very valuable property.
But Telephone stock has had a severe set
back this week, and this one feels the effect.

business done aggregating upward of eighty
thousand dollars. Besides this number of
sales have been made privately between bro
kers that do not appear of record, but, all the
same, help to keep the pot boiling.

The story is soon told.

The story is soon told.
The directors of the company reduced the
dividend from $1.25 to IS cents, and the stock
dropped correspondingly.
A drop of ten points in one day was calcu-
to create considerable CONSERVATION,
Which it surely did,
Especially among those who had used it as
collateral in the banks.
But the financial writer of the sprightly Critic
came promptly to the rescue,
And felicitously showed how it was all for
the best,
In fact blessing in disguise,
And prominent broker lavishly squandered
whole dollar in the purchase of fifty copies of
the paper containing the article.
Which, by the way, was very excellent
article.
But still it was poor consolation for those
who had bought at Sc few days before,
Expecting to receive about per cent on
their investment,
And must now content themselves with but 80,
Or sell out at great loss,
Neither Of which they will feel like doing.
But then the Critic writer tells them it pays
better than many other stocks,
Which ought to satisfy any reasonable person.
All OF which is very good logic.
Though hardly good enough to make up for
loss OF 5000 per share,
Showing that logic will not take the place of
the almighty S.
The action Of the company is being severely
criticised. But then what are you going to do
about 1t And those able fnanciers who but re-
Gently predicted the stock would go to 90. 1t is

time, he has been remarkably successful.

But TO return to our subject-An even lower
range OF prices is generally predicted shrewd
brokers saying the stock is likely to drop to 65
in which case II might be well to buy. AT this
price 1t would pay AZ per cent, and the amount
saved in dividends would go toward improV-
ing the plant, though by the same process of
reasoning 1t might be wise to suspend all diVi-
dends. 1t is stated that the Washington drec-
tors all opposed the change, but the foreign
