Proceedings at the Stock Exchange yes
terday were interesting, but trading fell be-
low the mark of the early part of the week.
New York also sobered down a little. Read
ing vas quoted at 81 at . p. NJ, against GA the
previous day. The entire list closed lower
than the opening.
Locally, interest was focused on the street
railways, as usual of late, but taken as a
whole, they were not offered as freely as
desired. Duquesne was very scarce. Pleas

The third annual report OF the Edison Cen

that the<gross business of the company was
S10.942, $40 on which the profits, including
S2Il.o92 written OIL against the cost or tne
manufacturing plants, were $l,666.535. To
this amount must be added the general re-
ceipts at the main office, Se3,0l3. making
total net earnings of $1,79, $40. Deducting
from the net proceeds of the company, ex-
elusive of those of the Edison Electric Light
Company, the sum of $27l, 592, charged off on

off against liquidation, materials in stock

NO CHANGE AT CINCINNATI
Buying Mostly Confined to Small Lots for
Early Delivery.

CINCINNATI. FEB. l2--tSpecidl ]-Rogers
Brown & Co., say: There has been no change
for the better since our last report. A few
orders for Southern coke iron have been
placed, ranging from 800 to 1000 tons, but
buying is mostly confined to small lots for
early deliveries Prices are irregular and
the general situation is somewhat demoral-
lied. Also an abundance of iron is offered
by the furnaces through their regular
agents and in addition to this certain hold.
ers of iron taking payment for furnace sup
piles are allowing a number of brokers to
offer. This creates the impression among
buyers that "A large quantity is pressing on
fEe market. 1t il not denied that stocks a re-
increasing and that orders urearlv delivery
would be warmly welcomed, even at cut
prices.
Standard Southern wheel irons seem TO be
in rather better demand. and if the idle
furnaces will stay out, those in operation
can probably keep their product sold at IA ir
pr.ices. The .Ema Tennessee charcoal fur
mace has gone into blast and is making a
charcoal softener with about 3 per cent sill
con and enough PHOSPHORUS to make very
1iuid sharp castings 1t has discontinued
the manufacture of basic pig for the present
Quotations are reduced to correspond with
current offerings on standard brands.
