yesterday. The earnings of Leu svile
were stimulating argument in its favor
and the certainty that dividend of enc

as an incentive to buy the stock. Louis

Central and Southern Pacific were the
features of the afternoon trading. Pa
cihc Mail was also strong. These three
companies of Mr.. Coils p. Huntington's

and they have many friends who say that
Mr.. Huntington intends to boom the
stocks. The prospects of all the CON-

that very little pool manipulation would
be necessary to start good rise in the
securities when the market is favor
able They have none of them received
the consideration from the street that

esting at this time because of the fact
that the company will be one of the first

rruss SHOW Cause. !,

Lucas Kells, City Treasurer, must
abtn,ear before Judge Searle on next
Saturday to show cause why O. per-
p4tral Injunction should not restrain
him from paying city order for $3.50
issued TO Solomon Pendergast for the
purchase, of the brewery property. 1t
will he remembered that the City Coun-
ell was to receive deed of the prop
erty when the money should be paid
into the First National Bank. An Or
der was issued to the administrators of
the estate of VIM. BONNER which was
not accepted: MIR. Pendergast gave
his check for the money to the City
Clerk. who took the deed running to
the city. The city thereupon decided
the property to Mr.. Pendergast, and
issued a city order to him to repur-
chase the property from him. This Or
der the City Treasurer, under advice
of his attorney, declined to pay until
he could investigate the matter more
closely. This was on Friday last, and
on Monday the treasurer was served
with the order to show cause, and the
case will be argued on Saturday. as
above indicated. 1t is expected the
whole question will then come up on
its merits, including the right of the
CITY Council to buy and sell real es-
tate for the purposes indicated.

The r. & p. May Make a Purchase

Regarding the possible purchase OF
the Watkins & Gulf load by the Texas
II Pacific company, the Houston Poet
says:
1t is rumored that the Texas and Pa
cific road has about concluded negotia-
tions for the purchase of the Watkins
and Gulf, the short line, which extend
ing from Bunkle on the Texas and Pa
cific, will soon be completed to the
gulf.
The information is that Mr.. Thorne.
general manager, has just completed
an inspection of the Gulf road, the un-
derstsnding being that this was done
at the instigation of the Gould people
in New York.
The Texas and Pacific road is trying
to take care of the exporting business
which is SO rapidly coming southwark.
In St. Louis, according to the com
plants of the officials, they are unable
to get the needed track facility, and
hence they are looking about for deep
water in sother places. By the pur-
chase of the Watkins and Gulf road
and its completion to the gulf deep
water will be secured.
Mr.. ThOrne has been in Texas and
southern Louisiana for the past few
days, looking after the roadbed and
the general physical condition of the
Watkins and Gulf road.
