I TREMENDOUS VOLUME
OF BANK EXCHANGES

Bank exchanges sim show a very
large volume Of payments through the
banks compared with every year but
year ago, but there was exceptional ac-
tiyity in the early months 0f l9l5, and
il was reflected in these bank figures.
especially at New York where stock
market operations were double In vol

changes this week az all leading cities
in the United States are S3.lS9. -. $50. A

where as previously stated. payments
through the banks on account OF stock
market operations are much less this
year than IN the early part OF Is06. All
other leading cities report a gain over

ton OF Philadelphia. Pittsburg. and Chi

comparison with last year. There are
notable gains at Cleveland and Kansas

ELECTRICAL MANUFACTURES
AMAZING GROWTH IN 1906

The Electrical World, taking as a
basis the actual items Of electrical
manufactures for 1904 in the United
ports, and assuming for 1906 a gain
o. only 10 per cent. and for 1906 a
gain OF 20 per cent, estimates that at
the lowest the production Of the past
year was 1904 .920. 500. and that this
must be far below the mark. The joint
output OF the three largest electrical
companies alone. according 10 their
reports. vas $4,000. 600. AS there
are SOC other concerns, some OF them
producing millions Of dollars worth
annually. the World thinks II reason
able 10 estimate that the American
public in 1906 paid out about $3.50, OOO,-
600 for its electrical apparatus.
As 10 the earnings OF public utility
electrical corporations the fluctuations
are wide. Many OF the largest. outside
Of telegraphy, showed a gain OF 20 to
30 per cent gross. The figures for
1906 aggregate. on estimate, $500. 00O.-
Oo0, compered with s745 G0e, 600 for
1905. The largest amount. $3.50, 000,-
600, is from street and other electrical
railways. Taking all things into con-
sideration, says the Electrical World.
il would look as though the American
pubic paid cut IN 1906 for its electrical
goods and service an amount some
where in the vicinity Of 81, I50, 600, 00O.
Il seems cutie probable that the grand
total will reach the value Of 1880
coo. 900 during the year 1907.

GUESSING ABOUT
PENNSYLVANIA R. R.
viii II Become a Trans-Con-
tinental Line in Self
Defense?

Wall Street asked itself yesterday:
Has Pennsylvania been compelled 10
become a tTanscOnunental line in self
defense2" and. Are the recent pur-
chases OF the stock Of the Atchison, To-
peka and Santa Fe to be financed with
-Iortion Of the proceeds Of the new stock
issue?'
The Atchison lines extend from Chi
eago 70 San Francisco and the Penn
sylvania system reaches from New
York, Philadelphia and Washington to
Chicago. Vail Street would like TO
know If the new financial head Of the
Pennsylvania. Henry c Frick. has am
billions. Mr.. Prick himself viii not say,
as he is not talking man He keeps
his plans 10 himself. Representative
OF the Pennsylvania railroad faid that
the new scheme OF a 600 000 Oo0 stock
and bond issue necessarily does not mean
any radical change IN the policy OF the
road In June last the late President
Cassatt estimated that the construction
requirements OF the Pennsylvania Eys-
TEN for the two succeeding years would
aggregate $4,000, 600; Il also is known
that 100000 Of Pennsylvania notes
will mature November / next 1t is
among the probabilities, so some OF the
representatives OF the company say,
that a part Of the proceeds or the pro
posed stock increase viii Dc used 70
meet these notes.
Ii was stated yesterday on good au-
thority that IL is the intention Of the
Pennsylvania management 70 issue con-
vertible bonds, and that the 100000
OF new stock will be used TO take up
The bords. Thus IL Is obvious that no
part OF the stock may be issued until
the bonds become convertible How
ever. II will not take 100000 OF Penn
sylvania stock 10 convert 100000 OF
as BONDS.
Bankers here regard the last Pennsyi-
vania issue Of sloo,0o3e00 81 per cent
convertible bonds as a successful piece
Of financing. with the single exception
that IL was a mistake 10 Tx the price
so high as il did not allow a reasonable
return 10 purchaser. IL is said the
company viii not again make the same
mistake. Nearly ali the bankers who
have had business relations with the
Pennsylvania road said that the out
look was not altogether favorable for
the new financing and that Il might be
some time before the management
might deem il advisable 10 test the
market. This was taken 20 mean that
not more Lhan $50000O00 would be put
ont during 1901
Denial Was made Of the report that
the stock Of the AtchisOn, Topeka and
Santa Fe Railway Company bought by
the Union Pacific Railway Company.
had been resold 10 the Pennsylvania.

ATCHlS0N TO BE PLACED
ON A6 PER CENT BASIS

BOSTON, Jan. 1.-THE directors Of the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad
meet In April for dividend purposes
II is understood that the obstacles in
the way OF putting the stock on a 8
per cent basis last October have now
been removed and that. unless some
thing unforeseen happens. good informa-
ton says, there is no doubt that the
stock Will be put on a 6 per cent basis
IN April.
/. is believed in Wall Street that the
Atchison directors will issue convertible
bonds instead OF stock in the financial
plan now forming. In that way il is
believed by putting the stock on a 9
per cent basis such bonds as will now
be issued would be soon cleaned up
and the way paved for financing with
common stock in the future.
