Speculations.
From the New York Evening Post
Whether through experience or through
superstition. the stock exchange has the
habit, in time of speculation, of accepting
one or more active enthusiastically one-as
the pivot of the movement From what
such stocks do Wall street draws infer
ences as to the general market. Union Pa
cific occupied such position continuously, in
the advances between March and October,
last year. "Pivots'' were changed rather
radidly. in the two ensuing months of the

Vile and Nashville was the nearest to the
center. Union Pacific resumed the position
last February; 1t lost it only when the gem
eral boom subsidized during March. when
first United States Steel. then Northern Sc
curities came to the center of the stage.
1t will be noticed that, on the break of the
past four weeks. Union Pacific, Northern
Securities and United States Steel have

August 1903. Steel in the market of that
autumn, and Louisville in the collapse of
October, 1902
Why should there be such ''pivots?" First,
no doubt, because on rising market specu-

Conjecture as to the next pivot Is al
ways rife at times like this when the next
move is in doubt. Whether prices rise or

is safe to say that the pivot will be the
stock on which the most "rumors" can be
hung. Northern Pacific. possibly. in either

LOCAL FINAnc1AL NEWS.

There was more disposition shown at the
meeting Of the stock exchange today to
talk than to trade, and for time the call
proceeded without the presiding officer
gaining the hearing of any great number
of brokers. This was due not to any abb
sorbing and general subject that was en-
gaging the attention. but from a lack Of
business to transact.
When the orders are scarce then the daily
meeting is a sort of social session, minus
a very Important feature however, namely,
the refreshment table.
The vice president. Mr.. Hieston, was in
the chair, after vainly attempting to yieio
in favor of the president, Mr. Hibbs, who
came in after the call began. The latter
preferred to occupy a place on the moor
for the day, and SO Mr.. Hieston was
Obliged to retain his grip on the gavel.
AS it turned out. the call was not pro-
ductive of much business. The only fea-
ture that was at all distinctive was the
character of the trading in the preferred
stock of the Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company.
The stock sold from "a to as1s. and at the
close 1t was to be had at 03A. with 93h bid.
After the 22d Instant the stock will be
dealt in ex-dividend, the latter amounting
to $3.50 per share. The stock was offered
for sale freely in large and small lots at 94
and 1914, and quotation lots were sold at
93s4 until there was no market at these
figures, and then the stock was TO De nao
to some extent at 937s. The demand, now
ever did not seem to be a general one Tor
the stock at these figures, and whether
there would have been better buying on
lower levels is not known, as the attempt
was not made to sound for the bottom or
the market. further than above stated.
There was no trading during the call In
the common stock of the Washington Rail
way and Electric Company. A bid OF 81! ~
was made for options, and they were 10 De
had at 80. For quotation lot OF nlty
shares Bin was bid and 3IA was asked.
After call three 1CO-share lots sold for oI1s
and an option al 3I1a.

been standing for some time. 3S1s was put
down. No change was made in the ASKING
price, which was a.
A better price was bid for the per CEN
bonds of the company, as, instead OF IVA,

COPIES TO BE USED
DISPATCHES MISSING FROM THE
STATE DEPARTMENT ARCHIVES.
Minister Bowen Has a Short Confer
ence With Secretary Taft and Re-
tires to Complete Statement.

Minister Bowen called upon Secretary
Taft at the War Department again today,
and had short conference regarding the
charges preferred against him by Assistant
Secretary Loomis. He told Secretary Taft
that two cablegrams, regarded by him as
very essential to the case, were missing
from the papers handed him day before
yesterday by the Secretary. Secretary Taft
thereupon called upon the State Depart
ment for the missing papers. but they could
not be found, although copies were accessi-
BILE, and, indeed, Minister Bowen himself
had copies, brought by him from Caracas
Secretary Taft and Assistant Secretary
Loomis were perfectly willing for the pur-
poses of the inquiry that these should be
regarded as original, and Mr.. Bowen retired
to complete the preparation of his case,
Merely Transmitted Current Rumors.
In his preliminary statement to Secretary
Taft Mr.. Bowen distinctly states that he
made no charge against Assistant Secretary
Loomis or his administration OF affairs in
Caracas. but had simply transmitted to the
Washington government report in regard
to the rumors current in official circles of
the Venezuelan capital concerning Mr..
Loomis and his alleged relations with the
New York and Bermudez Asphalt Com
pany, and Mr.. Bowen added that he made
only the report through a sense of duty
and in accordance with what he deemed his
duty as United States minister to Vene-
zuela- One thing which Mr.. Bowen con-
tends is that he had nothing to do with
the publication in the daily papers OF this
country or Europe of the charges made in
Venezuela against Mr.. LOOMS. He says, 1t
is understood, that he has not. and officially
will not. attempt to substantiate the
charges OF which he notified the State De-
partment So that IL the administration be-
lieyes that the matter should be thoroughly
ventilated 1t will be obliged to procure EVIL
dence from other sources.

RoJEsTvENsKY's ILL HEALTH.
Disquieting Reports in Circulation :
Said to Be Broken Down.

ST. PETERSBURG. May livery dis
quieting reports are in circulation this
evening about Vice Admiral Rojestvensky' s
health. 1t is said that he has telegraphed
to the emperor that it is impossible for him
to proceed. An evening paper prints a
report that the admiral has suffered a
nervous breakdown. No official confirma-
ton of the report that Rojestvensky has
been requested to be relieved from duty
is obtainable at the admiralty. Neverthe-
less the admlrafs health has been the
cause of considerable anxiety here
1t is well known that he suffered from
kidney trouble before leaving Cronstadt
and throughout the long voyage to the tar
east he suffered at times to such an extent
that he had to be carried about on
stretcher. But the Russian commander
stuck bravely to his post.
If he is now compelled on the eve of bat
tie to give up his command the admiralty
would regard it as little short of national
misfortune.

A GENTLEMAN $ VIEWS.
What Chamber of Commerce Can Do
 for the Cattle Industry.

q see by THE OASIS that Noga- les business men are talking of organizing chamber of com merce,o 7 said a cattle dealer to THE OASIS reporter the other day. Well, there may be some lines of business that l don't know much about, hut do know something about the cattle business and know that there would be more money coming into this locality from cat tie if Nogales had a chamber of commerce.
 Do you know that there are dozens of little ranches in this part of the country, where there are from 50 to 200 head of cattle? They are owned by men who have worked almost all their lives as cowboys. They know how to care for cattle and how to raise cattle. In fact what they don't know about caring for cattle isn't worth knowing, but many of them don't know how to sell cattle unless a buyer comes along looking for
