New York, Jan. 16.-Less than 1OO,0 900
shares of stocks were dealt in on the
stock exchange today and one-half of the
business was done in Chicago Gas and
Sugar. London was a small buyer of the
arbitrage specialties, but the trading for
the foreign account was not a factor in
the speculation. Local influences were
at work in some shares. Chicago Gas was
heavy on a renewal of the liquidating
prices inaugUrated by those who had ac-
CURED stock on the anticipated change
of control, but who are disheartened by
the local obstacles placed in the way of
the hoped for change There was some
buying of Sugar by houses with Washing
ton Connections, but thero were no de-
velopments touching the sugar schedule
to account therefor, and the local trad
erS were mostly sellers 1t was not eN-
pected any gold would be shipped today,
but one firm sent forward $S50,00o to Lon
don and S650,000 was Withdrawn from the
treasury today, some of which may be
exported by tomorroW'S steamer. Late
in the day a circular issued by the stock
holders committee of the Disulling com
pany was issued. 1t asks for proxies for
the annuel election, reviews The history
of the company and criticizes the pres
ent management. 1t came too late to have
any influence on the speculation in the
shares of the company, which were but
range of 4 per cent. The general market
was irregular during the greater portion
of the day. but in the later trading a
firmer tone prevailed and a majority of the

I find that all classes of fish are
doing well. The cat Ash which were
placed in the lake are thriving and
doing we'll, as are also the dog fish
and bass. These three l1irkis as you
know were placed in the lake some
four years ago. The trout are, in my
judgment, as plentiful as they have

The project of building railroad in
20 Custer county and the Wet Noun
tain valley district has been In con-
temptation for some time. The survey
was made some time ago. The line
of the road is through Oak creek can
yon, and is intended to tap the rich
mineral district of Custer county and
the fertile farming region of the Wet
Mountain valley. The Rio Grande has
a branch into this country which goes
through Grape canyon, but washouts
have made it's maintenance SO costly
that it has been abandoned for some
four years. The route of the road was
such that at high water great damage
was done to the tracks. At the last
great washout miles of track were des-
troyed, and after spending a large sum
in repairs the branch was abandoned
The new route is said to be free from
these difficulties, and the road Will be
above water line all the way. The
region has suffered from the lack of
transportation facilities. and upon the
opening of the new road it is predicted
that a revival will take place. Mr.
johnson will push the construction of
the new road and intends to effect it's
early completion.
