WALL STREET IS
VERY SLUGGISH.
IN LONDON AGAIN
HELPS OPENING.
Poor March Showing Depresses Erie
Norfolk s Western Mortgage
Causes Decline-Demand Largely
Centralized in Pennsylvania and
specialties-Other Coalers Immov-
able.

New York, April 2S.-The strength Of
the London stock market helped the
opening here to-day and prices were
fractionally higher, except for the Erie
stocks, which were sharply depressed by
the poor showing of net earnings for
March.
Amalgamated Copper, selling ex-divf-
dend, rose nearly point and Anaconda
jumped 81. Union Pacif1c's gain Of y
measured the largest advance otherwise.
Realizing sales in Amalgamated and
Union Pacific defeated attempts to adj
vance the market further and there were
number of small reactions. General
business, however, was very sluggish
and the price movement inconsiderable.
ST. Paul preferred gained 1, United Fruit
IL and Brooklyn Gas 8.
Norfolk & Western sold off a point on
the intended issue of a $35,0Oo,0OO mort
gage and the Fries were under pressure,

ferred IL and the first preferred 17s.
| Hooking Valley preferred dropped 31a
and Hooking Coal 1. Toledo, st. Louis
& Western preferred rose B, but the
general list was dropped and exceeding
| dull.
| Bonds were steady at noon.
When selling of Norfolk &, Western
and the Fries was suspended the mar
ket stifened, but the demand was largely
centralized in Pennsylvania and a few
specialties. Some large blocks Of Penn
sylvania were bought above 11S, but the
other coalers were immovable.

profitable trades scalping operations
the narrowness Of the market making Il
| wel1-nigh impossible. During the after
noon hardly any OF the active stocks GOV

Get kzsfO OIL
But Get I'm RSQksf

No industry in the world returns AZ
vested as OIL but small investors seldom
get in on the "ground floor" Of legitimate
oil operations. $50, 500 or $500 in a
company capitalized at from one to five
millions doesn't earn much even if the
company is successful, but such amounts
invested in an "oi pool with only $4,000
capital means VERY LARGE PROFITS
when production begins.
We have extensive leaseholds in the
heaviest producing zone of the rich Kan
sas oil fields, that we are now going to
develop by organizing "oil pools to drill
the necessary wells. Each pool will have
capital Of $4,000 divided into. 80 shares Of
$50 par value, of which we shall retain 20
shares for furnishing the leasehold Of 40
acres and managing development work;
our profit thus depending upon the sue
cess Of each pool
The average production of wells in the
independence field is about 10 barrels per
day. One such well in each pool will pay
OVER ga PER CENT annual dividend.
