MARKET LETTER.

Jan. 10, 19OT.-Denn and Amer ican absorbed so much interest today that in comparison there was simply nothing doing" in any of the rest on the list. Opening at S45 asked this morn ing and closing at $50 bid and none coming out, is the situa- tion in Denn. Reorganization into a mining company is to be promptly effected, and this an- nouncement is the cause for ad- vance. In the reorganization holders of development stock will receive two and a half shares mining stock, with the privilege of purchasing one and a half shares at par. This is one of two plans of distribu- tion, and the one likely to be adopted. However, the matter is not yet decided, and it may develop that four and two-thirds mining may be exchanged for one of development, with call to be made on latter. Whichever plan is adopted, the stockhold- CTS will of a certainty profit handsomely, and the shares should be selling at nothing less than $60 at the moment. Tomorrow will likely see an advance to near that figure. American is advancing rapidly on the strength of reported strike Of ore. The opening saw the stock at s11 bid. Be- lore the close tonight sales were made as high as $14.50, and the stock exhibiting such strength as to make it look good for nearer the S20 mark tomorrow. Warren is also stronger, and with good reason. The latter should be selling a great deal higher, because of real merit. As interest was for the time being almost entirely diverted to the three stocks mentioned, there Is little neces- dty of mention for the remain der. However. good trading was displayed in Sup. & Pitts, c. & A., Butte Coalition and North Butte. with prices firm. The Greene issues are weak and the buying not so heavy. Among the smaller fry Wolv. & Ariz. is picking up; wouldn't be surprised to see things move strong here very soon. East Butte strong and advancing. Balance nominal.

The charge to which Ruef and Dinan

LEADER OF iLL-STARRED
RUSSIAN FLEET TALKS
ey Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. H.-Admiral
Rojestvensky, who during the Russo
Japanese war, led the in-starred Russian
fleet around Africa to ultimate defeat at
the hands of the Japanese in the sea Of
Japan. is keenly interested in the cruise
of the American battleship squadron. He
after outlining some of the difficulties the
American vessels will have to overcome,
said he considered the voyage to the
Pacific to be entirely practicable.
TT can be made safely either in time of
peace or war" said Rojestvensky. Shell
tered harbors are available for coaling
and there is no fear of interference on
the part of any South American govern
ment. The passage of the straits of Ma
gellan, especially in summer time, pre-
sents no difficulty to skilled comman-
der This expedition differs from the
trip Of the Baltic fleet in that we were
obliged to coal at sea. We were not per-
mitted to linger for even one day in the
unfrequented bay of AMMAN without
brusdue orders from the French govern
ment and the English admiralty to move
on"
According to Admiral Rojestvensky, the
i chief criterion OIL the success of the
voyage will be Rear Admiral Evans
ability to bring every vessel Of the
squadron to the various stopping places
on schedule time The struggling due to
mechanical defects, he said, will be hard
to overcome.
The British fleet, which ranks among
the most efficient in the world, found 1t
necessary to drop the laggards during its
recent maneuvers. This would be fatal
in war times. Of the effect of the Ameri-
can squadron In the Pacific on the Jap
anese, the admiral said:
while this voyage will be valuable in
welding the fleet 1t will have also a high
strategic influence in curbing the pre-
tensions of the Japanese, whose jingoism
has noticeably abated since the announce
ment of the plaza"
Rojestversky disparaged the idea of
duplicating the battleship squadron. one
for the Atlantic and the other for the
Padific. He declared that one fleet would
be adequate for the protection of both
coasts and that its transfer could be
made periodically with advantage to both
ships and crews.
The fleet should have it's base at San
francisco or some other American port
while in the Pacific, he said. To. station
1t in the Philippines would be expensive
and unnecessary.
Contrasting the American and Japanese
fleets, the Russian admiral said
1.-THE Japanese personnel, man for man,
is now undoubtedly more efficient than
the American, due to practice in battle,
but the American ships so exceed the
Japanese in strength and numbers that
there is no question of American super
1ority. consider the question of war
between Japan and the United States as
quite excluded"

PACIFIC WINDOW GLASS

Plant Owned Principally by Defunct

Trust Company of San
Francisco

STOCKTON, Dec. 1.-THE Pacific win
dow glass works started up tonight at
midnight, after stopping glass making for
one day only, and it is believed the plant
can be kept in continued operation until
the end of the season.
The majority of the stock in the corpo-
ration was held by the California Safe
Deposit and Trust company in San Fran
cisco, but regular sales will be sufficient
to keep the plant in operation If collec-
tions can be made by the management.
The manager says he hopes to be able to
continue the making of glass without an
other stop.
If the fires should be permitted to cool
the loss would be heavy, for plant of
this sort must be kept in operation to
supply the Pacific coast market, and this
is the only glass making works on the
coast.
1t is money making plant and Stock

BELASCO PRESENTS
WAR MELODRAMA

REVIVED
Play Has Been Presented Here Many
Times, but Still Retains Its
Hold on Theater-
goers

William Gfllettes stirring war melo-
drama. Secret Service" is revived at
the Belasco this week with Lewis 5.
Stone as the spy, Harry Glazier as
Arrlesford and Miss Florence Smythe
as Edith Varney. The play Is too
familiar to require comment. 1t was
presented at the Belasco in the fall OF
1906; has been twice staged at the Bur-
bank and has been played In Los An
geles by travelling companies, all OF
which of course, attests its popularity
with the theater going public.
The current presentation, however, Is
not up to the usual Belasco high stand
ard, either in the matter of cast or In
the manner of the plays staging. One
of the privates in the Confederate army
last night jauntily sported a blouse
which must have been made originally
for some military school, We were
treated to the somewhat amazing spec
tacle of an artillery officer in cavalry
uniform, and there were other lapses
similarly ludicrous. The etiquette of
uniforms has its niceties and they
should not be overlooked.
Mr.. Stones secret service agent out
does Gillette in repression. In fact his
methods are too quiet. In seeking to
create an impression of nerve and dar-
ing he has succeeded only in appear
ing Indifferent. There are scenes in
the play, notably the final scene of the
third act, where the characterization
is unworthy this actor, from whom we
have come to expect much.
Miss Florence Smythe makes a finely
sympathetic Edith Varney. Mr.. Glazier
is artistically disagreeable as the Con-
federate secret service official who has
right on his sade and the sympathies
of the audience against him, and good
work in other roles is done by Rich
ard Vivian, Joseph De Crosse, Miss
Eleanor Carey and William Yerance.
With the exception of Mr.. De Grasse
no member of the company makes any
pretense of copying southern methods
of speech. Miss Harrington is miscast
in an ingenue role, which is not her
fault

LONDON, Dec. 17.-TNe Times this
morning, in an editorial highly eulogizing
President Roosevelt. regards the dispatch
of the American fleet to the Pacific as q
demonstration Of the views enunciated in
his presidential message.
His attitude" says the Times, must
command the respect and appreciation oa

with which he clings to his naval policy
not less than the broad wisdom by which
it is inspired"
The Times proceeds to confess that the
misgivings which it formerly expressed
on the inopportuneness of the cruise have
been dlspelled by Secretary Taft's visit to
the far east and the admirable temper and
restraint shown by the Japanese govern
ment and people.
