WALL STREET GOssIP-New York
Son, bankers and brokers, 81 Robert
street, National German-American Bank
building, st. Paul: Strong, Sturgis &
60. wire us: with increasing ease in
proved market here and wider specu-
!ation and the trading drifting largely
into class securities which of late in times
of money stringency have become very
dull and depressed. Industrials can fair
ly be called the feature of todays bust
ness with the Tobacco company stocks
the most prominent. The rumor that the
continental Tobacco has purchased tha
Buchanan and Lyall company was most
faYOrably received, and 1t has added new
impetus to the advance in the stocks Our
friends who have been right in their pre-
dictions in regard to these securities have
been very right and still hold their stock
claiming that much higher prices are in
store for them so that we are still in
c CINE to advise those who are long to
hold on awhile longer The market in
general has run to specialties a good
deal. Iowa Central securities heretofore
very dull have been actively traded in
been
formed. The earnings are large and very
satisfactory and in fact the property is
reported to be doing better than anv
period in It's history. We have nothing
Iron and believe it will sell at par. In
the meantime while these specialties are
so active, high priced railway shares are
inclined to be dull and people looking to
take an interest in the market are turn
ing their attention to the cheaper secur-
tiles. We are inclined to advise any one
purchasing railway stocks to buy the low
priced ones"

opposed to any such distributions at this

improvements" Decline in BROOKLYN
