New York, Nov. 1.-The rapid and
rather spectacular rise in 500 line com
mon and preferred, the former to a new
remarkably few rumors. 1t has been
done partly by the, straight, outright
buying of a few thousand shares of
stock, but largely by the speculative
buying of the pool formed here some
months ago by prominent ex-congress-
year and has often before been identi-
fed with the movements of this stock
and Canadian Pacific.
The present outside buying is from
those who think that with the compile
ton of the Glenwood extension this
company will act net earning capacity
that will Justify the placing of the
stock on a dividend basis higher than
4 per cent. They argue that the Cana
dian Pacific, having carried it's invest
ment at a loss for many years, is now
willing to see the dividend return rs
high as the 500 line can consistently
make it. They also argue that the net mel
900 per mile-is far lower than the av-
erage on the roads Of the northwest.
There is probably some other reason
for the buying, for it is a fact that the
buyers have faith, and that some Of
them at least have bought real stock IN
higher The facts set forth above are
given for what they are worth. They
are exactly the kind Of talk that any
one may hear in the offices, where the
better part Of the trading in these is
sues goes on.
Back of it all, Of course, there are
some facts outside Of these. It is now
pretty generally believed that the Soc
line is Canadian Pacific weapon
against the Hill lines. In this fact
there are potentialities that may amount
to great deal. No one knows wher
the aggression of the Great Northern
will drive the Canadian Pacific into s
course of reprisal that will lead to ar
attempt to make the 500 line a rea
competitor Of the Great Northern anC
Burlington for Transforming mental trade
Such a result Of the enmity between
these two great interests would almost
certainly result in the pushing Of the
500 line thru to Chicago, along the line!
originally proposed.
There are certainly some interesting
