The continued weakness of American
Graphophone common and preferred
stocks attracts much attention. The Sc
curities of the company are largely held
locally and there is much surmise in busi-
ness and investment circles as to the rea-
son for the gradual but very steady de-
cline in the prices. The common stock is
now selling for the first time in several
years below par, and this serves to fasten
attention to it especially The Graphic
phone Company pays dividends very reg
ularly at the rate of per cent on both
the common and the preferred stocks.
Ordinarily 1t might be expected that good
Industrial securities with records for divi-
dends for several years back would sell
very much higher than the present levels.
The preferred might go to 1G or Is and the
common might be expected to luctuate
between u and l6. Instead of this. during
the past two years there has been
steady decline in the prices. with almost
not even a momentary stopping place. In
1898 the common was selling at l5 ana the
preferred somewhat higher. a little while
after the common got back to 10 and then
10 II and IL. In the past year 1t has drltt-
ed gradually toward par, and during the
last month or two has had very strong
inclination TO get below par. The best
bid price for it at present is 912.
one of The reasons why the stocks do
not advance Is undoubtedly that people
intimate with the affairs of the company
are unwilling to buy them at even the
present low level. What the reason for
this reticence is Is another question. the
answer to which would be worth much TO
any investor without doubt. one eXplana-
tion suggested is that the company is run
on basis too generous to the officers and
too expensive to the stockholders. 1t is
said that the operating expenses are very
nearly 90 per cent of khe receipts. If this
is true the proportion is an absurd one,
undoubtedly. Other industrial companies

Special to the Leader.
Columbus, o., July 16.-Special Elk
aminer Brooks has completed his in
vestigation of ths affairs of the local
pension Office and the dispositions will
be at once forwarded to Washington,
From all reports which have trick
led out from under the bar of secrecy
which has been thrown around the in
Vestigation. there seems to be a wheel
within wheel in the examination The
dispositions of all the clerks in the Office
have been taken and the questions have
ben confined wholly to the reported
charges against Chief Clerk Pontious.
The term of office of Pension Agent
Jones does not expire for over year
yet and it is we'll known that several
influential men in his party would like
to see him succeeded by another man.
1t is now said that while the investi-
cation was ostensibiy begun for the
purpose of investigating charges which
had been held against the chief clerk,
its scope has been widened and it has
brought into question the executive
ability of the Pension Agent, A man
thoroughly conversant with the affair
said that while the charges against the
chief clerk had been practically proven,
that the dispositions would also show
that the numerous quarrels and con-
stant pickering in the Office were due to
the lack of executive force shown by
the head of the agency and that when
the verdict of the head of the pension
department was made public more
heads than that of the chiefclerk would
drop in the basket. Special Examiner
Brooks completed his work Tuesday
and will return to Washington at once,
and much more will depend on his re-
port than the mere displacement of the
chief clerk

will hold their jobs as ding as possible,

In conversation with Fred CUTLERY
this evening relative to the work, he
said that the boys felt as though they
would like to earn some money them
selves, and as no other plan was in
sight they decided to shovel dirt.
Many of their friends scoffed at the
idea, but they paid no attention to that
and their determination has been COM
mended rather than censured. The
parents of all the boys are in good cur
cumstances.
