NEW BOND ISSUES.
Prospects Of Deferring Them Till July
Disbursements Are Made.

Disbursements Are Made.
From the New York Evening Post
Besides the 500 0OO. 900 Pennsylvania bond
issues. on which subscribers made a so per
cent payment this week. investors will be
called upon to bid for some $500 900, 900
other securities that have already been an
nounced. The include $100,0O0,OO0 Union
Pacific preferred stock, $25 10000 Missouri
Pacific bonds. $50.OO0,OOO Western Pacific
bonds and $11.000,O0O Chicago Northwestern
stock. The thirty million Philippine rail-
road loan will also be announced In a few
weeks. In Great Britain new capital appli-
cations are more than double what they ag-,
gregated last year or the year before The
official records show that $40, 300 600 of new.
issues have been offered investors thus far
this year. against $l74. 100000 In 1904, Si65, :
10000 in 1903, S440 800 OCO in 1902, and S5O1,
900 during the craze of 1901
Aside from these applications there are
numerous other issues which will probably
be announced after the July disbursements
are made. Bankers familiar with the re-
quirements have advised against further of
ferings at this time on account of the un-
certainty over the far eastern situation
and the large Issues which ihe markets al
ready have to digest. The feeling is general
however, that all the good bonds can be
ed with too many issues at once. Internal
tional bankers contend. too, that In spite Of
the heavy offerings abroad European in-
vestors will still take our bonds on a per
cent basis If they can get safe issues at
that price.

blackened, with her flag fying at half

the steamship Bennington lies beached
on the shores of San Diego barbor
Thirty nine of her crew lie dead at citv
mOrgues, the fate of dozen more il as
yet undetermined and three score are
stretched upon beds of pain in various

One Dollar Saved Represents Ten
Dollars Earned

The average man does not save to ex-
ceed ten per cent of his earnings. He
must spend nine dollars in living expen-
ses for every dollar saved. That being
the case he cannot be too careful about
unnecessary expenses. Very often few
cents properlyinvested, like buying seeds
for his garden, will save several dollars
outlay later on. 1t is the same in buying
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarr-
hoea Remedy. 1t costs but few cents,
and a bottle of it in the house often
saves a doctors bill OF several dollars.
