NO. SECURITIES Up
Merger Stock Made a New High
Record To-day.
SOME TALK OF A TIP FROM HILL4
Investors, However, Attribute. the
Strength to Earning Prospects
-. -. of the Roads. /.

Northern Securities sold to-day at 10
In early trades on the New, York Stock
Exchange curb market. This is really a
new high record. When the stock was
first offered there were nominal quota
tions around 112 to start it, but the anti
merger agitation put a stop to the inter-
est that was just beginning to develop,
and the investing public dropped 1T quick
ly. Ultimately the stock sold under par,
and hung around 1O1 to 102 until the
strength In stocks began developing some
weeks ago. Since then it has shared In
the general advance. ..ss- ;. --.s. :. .-<~
There Is considerable of a local specu-
lative interest in this stock, as Is quite
natural. The recent return Of Mt. Hill to
the northwest. after an absence In Lab
rador, coming coincident with the ad-
vance. gave rise to the runor that the
tip had gone out from St. Paul to the
faithful to buy the stock. This Is proba-
bly, incorrect. In the Judgment of sbrok-
ers who have followed the stock closely,
the rise Is due solely to the favorable
outlook for increased earnings on the
part Of the constituent companies. =.
Were 1t not for the legal cloud hanging
the stock in all probability would be sell
ing materially higher. Many investors
who are firm believers in the prosperity
Of the company under favorable clrcum-
stances, are cautious about buying into
a lawsuit. It is this idea that the men
who most desire an advance in the stock
have been combating. Great emphasis
has been put upon the fact that In the
event Of supreme court decision neces-
s1tating the dissolution of the Northern
Securities company, the holders of the
stock would have the option Of reconyert-
Ing it into Great Northern or Northern
Pacific securities for which It stands, and
the gilt-edged@ nature. of the paper Of
these roads has been dwelt upon with
great force. In consequence there is now
some disposition to take hold on the basis
that decision favorable to the Northern
Securities company would mean specu-
lative boom in the stock, while an .ad-
verse decision would not necessarily mean
the loss Of everything invested.

Mr.. Quay and the Strike.

An amusing story of the result of the
first effort of Senators Quay and Penrose
TO settle the coal strike by pleading with the
largest of the operators to submit the case to
arbitration Is now going around. 1t ap-
pears that these politicians sought out
President Baer of the Reading railroad and
urged him to put the case in their hands
for settlement, declaring that if the strike
Is not ended before election a democratic
governor will surely result They We're
Mortified when Mr.. Baer announced his
Willingness to continue the deadlock on
such terms he being a Jerry Black demo-
crat'' and therefore glad to see a chance
for democratic success in Pennsylvania.
The story. however, lacks what the French
term 'vraisemblable." It does not accord
with the popular notion of the political
astuteness of Senator Quay. 1t is hardly
probable that that veteran leader would be
so indiscreet to lay bare the secrets Of
his campaign before a man whose politics
he did not know to the least shade of fac
tionalism. President Baer of the Reading
road may not be an important political fac
tor in Pennsylvania. but he is too con-
spicuous an industrial element to be casu-
ally approached with the declaration that
the issue of the campaign depends upon
the outcome of the pending strike
If, however it be true that the senator's
did really put the so BADLY to Mr..
Baer. they doubtless knew the game better
than the story would serve to indicate. 1t
IS presumably true that personally they
care nothing whether the strike is settled
or not. They live in an atmosphere of
such turmoils. Peace is an alarming con-
dition to them. They are after campaign
capital They want to persuade the people
of Pennsylvania that their organization,
the republican party of the state. does not
sanction the strike, but advocates its clos
ure. If they can force the democratic
party. through any of it's more conspicuous
members, to advocate or secretly work for
its continuance they have scored point.
SO 1t Is possible that in their sly way
these practical politicians were gently
working Mr.. Baer. There are ways that
are dark and tricks that are vain that do
not exclusively belong to the repertoire of
the heather Chinee" and, like the illusions
of the prestdigitator. they are not trans
parent to the casual observer.

cess in 1904, and if there is to be any rea-
sonable hope OF carrying the state then
much must be done by that party mean
while. The present situation is anything
but promising. Some of the strongest of
the democratic leaders have declined TO con
slider the nomination for governor. Tam
many is not only out of power. but sert-
ously divided. Some of the democrats who
assisted in electiug Mr.. Low mayor are,
while not altogether satisfied with results,
openly proclaiming their purpose to vote
against Tammany again next year. H.,
therefore republican sits in the governor S
chair at Albany. and a reformer in the
mayors chair in Greater New York. in the
year of the next presidential election. how
1attering will the prospect be OF carrying
the state for the democratic candidate for
President?
So much depends on New York that even
with Mr.. Hill in the lead the men in the
democratic party who do not like him are
bound to wish him a measure of success In
his present efforts to regain control of tile

Mr.. Cannon on Tariff Revision.

Representative Cannon, who is opposed to
any revision Of the tariff, is little more
definite in his statement than are many
others who agree with him. He says:
The tariff will be revised some time. but
not at the next session of Congress or by
the succeeding Congress unless there is a
check to the present prosperity"
That is to say, if hard times shall set in
soon again, business become unsettled capi-
tai take to cover, and soup houses reopen, it
will be in order then to move for re-
vision of the tariff. But in which direction
in such circumstances would rates be car
ried? 1t wouldn't do to lower them That
would add to the business depression, Bust
ness interests would resist such a proposi-
ton with all their might. The corridors
of the Capitol would be crowded with the
representatives of great industries armed to
the teeth with statistics showing that a cut
in rates would finish them forever The
proposition then would be to make the rates
higher. Is that the idea of the antI-reyi-
sionists? The present rates are to remain
until a check to the present prosperity en-
couraSes movement to make them higher?
The republican party cannot afford to stand
for that.
