BROKERS SHOW SIGNS
OF HOPEFUL FEELING
MARKET HAS BETTER TONE AND
STOCKS CLIMBING SLOW
LY UPWARD.

On a rising market, with greater
confidence in the financial situation,
and with the brokers coming out
from under the cloud which had COW
cred them for the last week, the
brokers on the local mining stock eX-
change began the week with increas-
ed business, with a greater number
of sales recorded, and with a better
average of prices for their securi-
ties.
1t looked when the call opened, as
though every stock on the list would
figure in the sales column. The first
stock called was Amalgamated Ne
vada Mines e Power. There was a
sale. Then Blackhorse Phoenix was
called and sold. And in the same
manner, Blackhorse Gold Treasury,
Butte Ely, Boston Ely and Bray
Mines company were called and sold.
Then there was jump, and the
buyers skipped all between Bray
Mines and Ely Consolidated, land
ing on that stock for a sale. An
other stock was then skipped and
Ely Nevada Consolidated appeared as
a seller.
Farther down on the list, Federal
Ely appeared as a seller. The quo

MILLIONS TO BE DIVIDED
AMONG THE VANDERBILTS

Mis- Gladys Vanderbilt became the
greatest of young American heiresses
this month, when, on reaching her le-
gal age, the youngest of six children
of the late Cornelius Vanderbilt came
into the absolute possession of for
tune estimated at $12, 100000
For weeks force of clerks and ac-
countants has been busy at the office
of the Vanderbilt estate, Forty-sec-
ond street and Madison avenue, max
ing preparation for the distribution
of this immense fortune and for the
payments of large sums of money
which will be due other members of
the Vanderbilt family from surplus
accumulations from legacies which
have not been paid over to the bene-
ficiaries.
The coming of age of Miss Gladys
Vanderbilt was the occasion for no.
table celebration at The Breakers, the
Newport residence of Mrs. Cornelius
Vanderbilt and her youngest child.
There will be series of dinners and
ball, to which the Newport set will
be invited.
One feature of the celebration was
intended only FOR the immediate
members of the family. 1t consists
of the formal notification of Miss
Gladys Vanderbilt by e. V. w. Ros-
sitter, vice president of the New York
Central railroad, and the other ex-
ecutors under the will of the late
head of the New York Central sys-
TEN, that she has come into the alb
solute possession of her share of the
estate of her father.
Alfred G. Vanderbilt, the chief he'll
under the will of his father, will
share in this remarkable financial
! jubilation. Alfred Vanderbilt is to
| receive a half of the residuary estate
when he reaches the age of 80, and
| the remainder when he becomes 35
years old. The residuary estate now
| amounts to about $25, 100000. AL
fred Vanderbilt will be 80 years old
| in October.
! 1t is believed that arrangements
will be completed so that the first
| settlement may be made at the time
his younger sister receives her inner
itance. Alfred Vanderbilt is now
abroad, but is expected back SOON

PRICE OF SILVER IS
NOT LIKELY TO SUFFER

The quotations on silver have been
somewhat lower during the past ten
days, but there is widespread belief
that the fuctuation of the earlier
days of the month will not be re-
peated soon. This belief is based on
the fact that the Indian government
is again in evidence as a strong
buyer, indicating the depletion of its
accumulated stock, and on the in
creased demand for bar metal in the
London market. Wheat prices, both
in Liverpool and Chicago, have shown
signs of breaking, and this has
strengthened the silver market, as
did also the recent purchase (the
first in over monthly of 100000
ounces at 61.626 cents by the United
States treasury department.
There appears to be no immediate
occasion for alarm among silver pro-
ducers that the price of the white
metal will drop in sympathy with
copper, lead and zinc.-Mining Re-

ordered recently for a higher scale
of wages. The miners have signified

testified that with the same shotgun

who has congratulated Mr.. Mosbaugh

MARION CLUB WINS CASE.
Indiana Commission Decides That the
Pennsy Must interchange.

Indianapolis. Ind, Dec. 12-The
Commercial Club of Marion won It's
fight for an interchange of freight be-
tween its three leading railroads,
contest that was carried on before the
Indiana Railroad commission.
A decision given yesterday was in
favor of the Commercial club. and
hereafter the p, c., c. * st. l.. and the
Toledo, st. Louis & Western will be re-
quired to interchange freight in car
load lots with the Chicago, Cincinnati
& Louisville Railroad, a new line that
touches Marion. The decision Of the
commission will be gladly received by
the manufacturers of Marion.
The duty of interchanging traffic
at Marion is imperative under the
law" says Chairman Union b. Hunt, OF
the commission, in a written opinion
made yesterday. And the respond
ents should recognize this fact and At
once comply with the statutes he
adds. Much of the right of way Oh

As the President Says That
Neither Will He Accept the
Nomination If rendered to
Him in Convention.
NO EXPLANATION is GIVEN.
POLITICIANS AND PUBLIC MEN
GENERALLY SURPRISED THAT
THE STATEMENT CAME so
SOON IN THE SEASON.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 12.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt announced again Tues
day night that not only was he not a
candidate for a third term, but under
no circumstances would he accept a
denomination. He made this declara-
tion about O'Clock and handed out to
the press the following statement,
which makes it an Official utterance:
''On the night of election | made
the following statement: L am deeply
sensible of the honor done me by the
American people in thus expressing
their confidence in what | have done
and have tried to do. I appreciate 10
the full the solemn responsibility this
confidence imposes on me, and | shall
do all that In my power lies not to for
felt it. On the 4th of March next /
shall have served three and one half
years, and this three and One-half
years constitute my first term. The
wise custom which limits the president
to two terms regards the substance and
not the form, and under no circum-
stances Will l De d Cduuludle lOI vi
accept any nomination.
Il have not changed and shall not
change the decision thus announced
1t will be observed that the state
ment is a reaffirmation in every re-
spect of the one the president gave out
on the night of the election in Novem-
ber. 1904 In addition. there is the
hot hn will nnt
change his mind between now and the
time of holding the national conven-
tion next June.
The almost universal Interpretation
of public men is that this most assur-
edly lifts the president out of all con-
sideration for another term. even so
far as the most ardent third-term
boomers are concerned. 1t now seems
impossible and even absurd for the ad-
vocates of his denomination to persist
in the propaganda which has had the
effect of confusing the public mind and
beclouding the general political situa-
tion.
Came Unexpectedly.
The president volunteered no expia-
nation as to why he made his an
nouncement at this time. Many men
with whom he conversed on the subject
of third term during the past fort
night have come away from the white
house convinced that he would make
another declaration. but not until next
spring or a short time before the con
vention assembled. They formed the
opinion after talking with Mr.. Roose-
Welt, that he thought it was good poll
tics to remain silent for several
months, consequently. public men and
politicians@Senerally were taken by
surprise when they heard he had made
an announcement. Many reasons are
being advanced as to the motives
which actuated him In speaking out
now.

Pennsylvania Has Had AbSo-
IuteIy Ignored All Requests
Of Commission to Make
Physical Union of Two Lines
MARION CLUB WINS SUIT.
SYLVANIA WILL HAVE TO IN
TERcHANGE FREIGHT WITH
c., c. & l.. IN THAT CITY.

Next week in the Marion superior
court in Indianapolis. will come up the
question of freight interchange be-
tween the Pennsylvania and c.. c. Il
l.. railroads in Richmond in which the
state railroad commission is plaintiIf.
1t will be recalled that the question
was taken before the State Railroad
commission and that this commission
decided in favor of the Commercial
club as against the railroads, in it's de-
mand that freight Interchange be es-
tablished. The Pennsylvania railroad
company protested the decision AMI
filed a demur to the same. Shiveley
n Shiveley. representing the railroad
commission, have filed briefs to the de-
muir. and ii is expected that the briefs
of the Pennsylvania will be filed this
week.
Much interest is being taken in the
impending decision by local shippers
as it is felt that an interchange OF
freight between the two roads would
greatly alleviate present evil shipping
conditions. An Interchange of freight
would also greatly facilitate shipping
of goods 10 points on either of the
roads.
AS yet no certain point of contact
between the two roads has been deter
mined on. as the Pennsylvania rail-
road has disparaged every suggestion
that has been made as to a possible
point of contact
