Southern Pacific has been one OF the
weak stocks on the list during the week
The reasons for its declines are yariOusly
explained, but the statement may be made
on excellent authority that two OF the
bear stories published during the week are
entirely false. Mr.. Huntington and the
Speyer interests are not at outs. but OF
the best of terms. The companys earn
ings are not failing off in any such alarm
ing way as has been suggested. The stock
has been manipulated more than others

so good position perhaps TO take ad-

Careful market people are inclined to
the belief that during the next few days.
and perhaps for even a longer period
such stocks as the Atchisons and the Bal
timore and Ohio securities, which have
been doomed rapidly. and to much the
highest prices on record. may be dropped

advanced to the same extent 1t would
not be very surprising If the high price
records of the Atchisons and the BaltI-
more and Ohios made during the past
week were the best for some time to come.
Even some recession from the best level
seems probable. The Atehisons should
not be bought except on good recessions
and it is doubtful if Baltimore and Ohio
common should be bought under any cir
cumstances. Many believe that the lat
ter stock is already selling much too nigh
for its dividend prospects. 1t should be
remembered, however. that il is not likely
to go below so for the present On ac-
count of the s6000,000 stock that is 20 be
1oated at that figure in the near future.
OF the trunk line securities New York
Central seems the best speculative prop
osition at present to many. Ii has not
advanced nearly as much as either the
Baltimore and Ohio securities or the
Pennsylvania, and is now selling consid-
dividend was raised and before the re-
cent immense increases in earnings. In
addition TO this the plans of the Wander
bits all seem TO tend finally 10 the aggran-
dizement OF this great system. and the
Vanderbilt plans are not all announced as
yet by any means. Pennsylvania may
hesitate for a few days, but ultimately
higher prices for the stock seem well nigh
assured.
The steel and iron securities continue to
hang back. Their record for the entire
week is one of the poorest on the list
Sentiment regarding this group is. how
ever, none the less bullish. John ".
Gates was expected in New York last week
and it was said that he intended to begin
bull campaign in the steels. He did not
arrive. but will be in the city some time
this week. 1t is still asserted by his
friends that he intends TO boom American
Steel and Wire especially. Intrinsically
the outlook for these stocks is as fire as
that of any on the list. 1t Is quite GER
tain that the records of these companies
VIII be better this year than they were
last, as the high prices OF the present will
prevail during the entire year whereas
present prices were not paid last year I'M
til during the closing months II is Ger
tain, too. that the established rate of divi-
dends Will be paid on the common stocks
and that some stocks will be put on the
dividend list for the first time in the near
future. With this outlook the present
level of prices in the securities makes a
most interesting comparison. The present
approximate prices on few of these Sc
curities and the dividends paid, or reason
ably certain in the near future, are given |
here, with the rate Of interest TO be real |
lied on the investment if stocks are |
bought at the present level.

The indications are all favorable 10 a
strong and active stock market for some
time to come. During the past week there
has been some hesitation, and the general
list has not made much advance in prices
but neither were there any declines Of no.
ment, This showing, after three weeks
of rapid advances and two months of
steady If slower gains, must be considered
record entirely satisfactory. A reaction
OF several points after the advance aver
aging ten to twenty points would not have
been a surprise. and should not have been
disappointment. Realizing by the smaller
bulls has proceeded steadily, and the mar
ket is in much better position TO begin
another advance than 1t was to continue
the upward movement a week ago The
small bears have been operating during
the week despite the fact that in many
securities they are still short at very much
lower than the present prices. This also
is good for the market as any renewal of
the bull campaign would drive them 10
cover quickly. To state the reasons for
belief in the market, the intrinsic reasons
would be to rehearse again the entire
business outlook, everywhere supremely
favorable according to the best authori-
ties Chiefly, however. at the moment the
matters directly affecting the situation
are the ease of money, the abundance of
funds that will be seeking investment
