WEAK MARKET
 IS FEVERISH

New York, Dec. 5.--The stock mar kct of the week has been feverish and irregular. Heavy realizing sales at some points were accompanied by fur ious buying on advances at others, mostly ill low priced stocks. Heavy new issue of securities were accept cd as Of hopeful import. The heavy flow of American securities from for eign markets to New York made such inroads on banking supplies as to af- feet the money market. The firmer tone of the money market apparently awakened no serious fears among spectators and the fact that rates remained relatively low, was prime factor in keeping up the speculation. Misgivings were expressed at times that the speculative pace was too fast and evidence was cited that the busi- ness revival was oyerestimated. It was this that restrained somewhat the ris- ing tendency of prices.

he did not at this time but he would makS inquiry
 During the conference Colonel Ran dClph intimated that it would please him if a bridge could be built suita- ble for running a railroad track over also. that he might run a spur into the town of Florence and on to the prison site perhaps. in view of the large amount of freight that will be required in the construction and main tenance of the prison. That was a matter that had not been given con- sideration and was at the time dis missed by both Mir Ely and Col. Ram dolph though Mir. Ely says he believes there is now possibility that this ar rangement may be made. Col. Ram dolph did not know where the prison site was to be and neither did Mir Ely, although he thought he did He had not been with any of the official parties which inspected it and as he did not go to Tucson on prison bus mess he did not look up the details. But his inference from the discussions he had heard was that it was per haps three or four miles from Flor ence. He told Mir. Randolph this and both gentlemen agreed that it would hardly pay to build railroad that distance just to facilitate the prison business.
 But when Mir. Ely returned and learned that the prison site was ad-

how long a bridge will be necessary to keep the river within bounds, and such other facts as may be necessary. This will be done in a very few days and when the data is secured Col. Randolph will take up the matter per sonally and superintend the drawing of plans that will suit the necessities. The situation is a little embarrassing for the reason that the appropriation is pretty small for the building of such a bridge as would seem desirable and
 it will be necessary to use the great
 est economy. if a. proper bridge is built within the limit of the appropri-
 alton. One set of plans has been sub
 mitted tentatively by an engineer but they will necessarily be rejected for the reason that the appropriation is too small to meet their requirements.
 MT Ely merely as a suggestion in the direction of economy. asked Col
 onel Randolph if the old Santa Fe bridge at Tempe, now owned by the Southern Pacific, could not be utilized
 in the proposed Gila bridge. The col onel said he did not think it could be to any advantage. The expense of taking down such a structure and re-
 moving it to Florence, would more than offset any advantages that might be secured in utilizing it. For one thing it is a heavier structure than will probably be required at Florence and would necessitate scale of Oper- ations for the new bridge that would be expensive. MT. Ely asked him then if he knew of any other second hand bridge that could be utilized. He said

Sims Ely, private secretary to Gov .ernor Kibbey. spent Friday in Tucson. his mission there being a conference with Colonel Epes Randolph. in re- spect of the proposed bridge across inc Gila river. to be constructed by the territory at Florence. Colonel Randolph had previously offered the benefit of any advice he could give in the matter of bridge construction, and as he is known to be one of the most capable bridge builders in the country. his kind offer was gladly ac- cepted. Colonel Randolph had acniev- ed a wide reputation as an engineer and builder of railroad bridges while he lived in the east and before he became personally connected with the operating department of railroad work. The territory is fortunate therefore in having his services at this time and the more so for the reason that they are given without remuneration.
 As the result of MT. Elys visit Col Onel Randolph generously offered to send an engineer from Tucson to Flor cnce to secure the necessary data. in- dicate a desirable location determine

joining the Florence town site and that a railroad spur a little over a mile long would accommodate both Florence and the prison. the railroad project presented a much better view. It is MT. Ely's purpose now to take the matter up again with Col. Ran dolph in the hope that q satisfactory plan can be devised. Florence needs q railroad spur from the depot on this side of the river. almost as bad as she needs a bridge and it is not un- likely now that with the proper CO., operation she can get beth at the same time. It would result in thousands of people annually visiting that town who now pass on up the line. giving the town the go by. And it would greatly facilitate business in Florence as well as being an almost inestimable con venience to all who in the coming years will have business relations with the penitentiary.
