less Of the refusal of some of the roads to join t.
The revised agreement of the Western passenger
association has been adopted by nineteen lines
east and west of the Mississippi river, and the
roads are now considering the rules under the
agreement.
AWhether the Kansas City. Fort Scott and
Memphis, Denver and BIO Grande, Milwaukee,
Lake Shore and Western, Burlington, Cedar
Rapids and Northern and Iowa Central will join
the association is doubtful. as they were rot
represented at the meeting. Under the circum-
stances passenger rates cannot be restored at

cause we need lock no further than the record
OF daily sales the stock exchange, These
sales average five times the sales of two months
ago, and grow larger day by day. with Of course
an occasion al lapse.
London prices for Union Pacific were nearly Q
per cent. above New York closings, and Union
Pacific was the most interesting feature of the
local stock market this morning. 1t advanced
llAc per cent. in the first half hour on large
transactions. The reason for this seems to Id
in The fact that Union Pacific has failed to keep
pace with the rest of the market

higher than it closed yesterday. Its earnings
reported yesterday showed gross increases. As
for the funding BILL it is difficult to say whether
the decision of the house committee to FatSft IF
favorably is a good point for the stocks or not
1t has been generally regarded as good bill for

for the first time since the stockholders meet
ing and organized for the ensuing year by elect

was passed to call a special meeting of the
stockholders on July q, 10 vote on pro position
to increase the capital stock So 600, 900. It is
not intended to issue the stock at once, but to
prepare the way for an issue of bonds in case the
company sees fit to build certain contemplated
extensions. The laws OF Missouri require that it
sh all not be in excess of the authorized capital
