By a compilation just made at New
York 1t is shown the Union Pacific had
its treasury stocks and bonds that had
risen about 500, 600. 900 in market yalu,
above their book cost. The Union Pa.
cific, it will be remembered, bought
about $131, 000, 900 of stocks in other
roads in the summer of 1906 and 10.
H, Hartman was questioned sharply
before the interstate mmer com
mission because of these purchases.
Bought at Low Figures.
Most of these securities We're bought
at such prices that by the time the
panic came they had fallen many mil
lions below their cost price. As far
back as June so last, before the panic,
the stocks had dropped 1913 900 goo be,
low their cost prices. So intense was
the criticism of Hartman for having
made these speculations that in the
annual report of the Union Pacific for
the year ending June 80, last. he felt
called upon to defend the purchases.
How great the depreciation was in the
stocks at the time of the panic in DC
tober has not been figured accurately,
but 1t probably exceeded $100, 900, 900.
Stocks Increase In Value.
1t now appears hat the present mar
ket price of the securities held by the
company is about $500, 900, 600, com
pared with a book value of $209, $780,
600. The Southern Pacific stock owned
has increased in market value $4,000,
600, as compared with the low prices
of October last.

Alaska a Profitable Investment.

Alaska was purchased from Russia
in 1867 for $1,000, coo, and since it has
already yielded W 200 millions In
gold it has proven a very profitable in.
vestment. The year 1907 alone shows
a production of about 2S millions and
this will likely be increased this year,
If you are sickly and delicate, unable
to sleep or eat you cannot make a more
profitable investment than to get a
bottle Of H~ostetter's Stomach Bitters
from your druggist or dealer. It will
restore you robust health and prepare
you for the battles of every day life.
For over "a years it has been proving
its merit in cases OIL sleeplessness,
sick headache, loss of appetite, cos
tiveness, b~iliousness, dyspepsia, indi-
gestion, heartburn, female ills and ma.
