Athletic Association Mortgage Notes.

The governing board of the Providence
Athletic Association met last evening and
the reports OF the building and
finance committees showed a
decidedly healthy progress being made
in the marketing ofthe Association second
made to the amount OF about
$4,000, which is just one-half the
amount required. Thus encouraged
the governing board is going
to push the notes aggressively and their
disposition Is more practically assured
provided the balance Of the membership
takes hold of the notes as those who have
already subscribed have done.
These second mortgage notes OF the
Association ought to be popular. The
Association itself with its thousand
membership is certainly popular and Is
going to be more SO. The property is a
magnificent one. It was bought
Of an annual increase of
valuation. According to the report of
the treasurer the annual dues OF the club
cient to cover fixed charges
interest and all running obligations and d
have something for sinking
will probably Inc increased to
$40 when the club goes into its quarters,
and all these may be devoted to
sinking funds without making 1t necessary
to raise the dues. The notes bear per
cent. interest, payable semi-annually, and
expire ten years from date. Altogether
The Athletic Association is Offering about
as good and safe a local investment as is
now on the market. Some OF
the notes have already been subscribed
for by parties outside the club. The fact,
however, that officers and members
of the club are taking large
share OF the notes practically guarantees
the security OF the Investment, for they
are bound in the interest of their invest
ment to make the club Ego"

The Wheat Market Continues to Re-
fleet the Absence of Speculation
General Market Gossip.
Bu The Associated Press.


o NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-On the open
ing of the market for the week
wheat continued to reflect the utter
absence of speculations. The market
was dull and steady. Cables are
quiet and exporters bought moderately.
The visible supply shows de-
crease of 11S,000 bushels. Advices
from the West state that
it is getting more and more evident
that the depressing influences which
have carried prices down to the
lowest level known TO the trade are grad
ually disappearing
Supplies abroad and afioat are decreas-
ing and this, added to the decrease in the
visible supply, taken In connection with
the very low price, should make an excel
lent basis for good advance in wheat.
There is absolutely nothing in sight,
even anticipating good many months in
advance, on which to bull stocks. IL
cliques In different specialties choose to
buy them and mark them up in an effort
to sell, they may succeed in all but the
selling; but whenever it come to taking
profits, they will find no purchasers out
side of the short interest, which perodi-
cally becomes large enough TO warrant a
bidding up of the market.
