HEARD ON THE BOURsE
New York, Jan. "copper" stock is
at the highest price in over six years
and IT it had not been for the best kind
of selling it would have run away
The public is simply crazy about II. II
is really the only stock they are long
of and on any kind of a chance they
will shoot it up to above 100 easily.
Atchison was again in demand and
one can only say the same thing over
again. 1t is good for 10 or over This
week.
The bank statement was about the
same as it was this week last year. II
is all right
Money loaned at 6 per cent on time
That is all any one wants to know. The
big increase in deposits show that
money is going to New York very fast
and If no calamity comes along we Will
have a flve-point advance all along the
line.
Great Northern ore certificates will
pay at the present price 10 per cent on
the investment if you hold them for
sixteen years; in addition there is be-
tween 400 to 600.OOO,000 tons of iron
ore in sight, at which the Schwab esti-
mate of 81 per ton gives a security
of three for one. there is only $50, 900,
600 of the certificates issued.
! Union Pacific was advanced by It's
! friends as soon as the government in
vestigation showed it to be the rich
| est railroad on earth and in addition
to that Hartman had gotten away
| with them all.
Southern Pacific shows an increase
of so per cent in the net earnings alone
compared with this time last year, sc
one can easily see the 5 per cent is
more safe and will be continued if not
increased. The stock is worth as much
as Atchison and will cross par this
week, so its friends say.
New York Central is being doomed
on the large purchases made BY Har-
riman. The most extravaganza claims
are made about where the coming rise
Will put 1t. One of the pIungers saws
20 points in 25 days. 1t is a q per cen
| Vanderbilt stock and is worth NOR,
than per cent stock of anybody
eIse's.
Pennsylvania climbed up a little a
last. It's one of the biggest roads il
the country, paying per cent anc
actually selling at a less price tina,
Atchison common. There is hardly ;
steel rail used in the United State
that does not pay tribute TO the Penn
sylvania railroad at some time in it
career.
Northern Pacific after it sells at 50
rights this week will begin to lool
cheap as a Z per cent stock. There /
no question of It's earning power an
one of the greatest possibilities of tn
stock, HIS friends say, they hav
not been hurt to any extent by tbei
over-trading in his stocks and the
still believe in him.
| Tom Lawson again came to the from
and showed that he has bigger publ
following that any skate that eve
speculated. He pushed Trinity up I
40 and then dropped it to 26. and +
five minutes back to g. He saws tn
public likes action and he will give
to them.
Anaconda has not gotten up too hig,
to buy. 1t will pass $50. Nobody ha
any of it and for seven consecutiy
times 1t has increased it's dividend, an
am informed that this coming tim
it will do it again. It now pays NOR
to the investor than AmaIgamated.
; Reported serious Illness of Harrima
hurts the market. If this man is sic
and cannot attend to the market Their
is absolutely nobody to take his pIac,
If by chance he should retire from tn
field Morgan would again be the CRY
Excellent buying is believed to hav
