GATES LEAVES FOR TEXAS.
Hanging on to Stocks and Waiting

NEW YORK, February 23.-John w.
Gates has left for Texas, of which state
he recently became resident. He is re-
ported to have several million dollars in
vested there. Before going he spoke as
follows of business conditions:
That there has been an improvement
in steel and iron conditions is shown by
the increase in production reported.
hope that business will continue on the
mend. l own securities of many corpora
tons, and do not propose to sell them at
present prices. There are many securities
traded in on the stock exchange that are
selling too low and are a purchase. But
they are entitled do not know. Whether
1t will he tomorrow, next week or next
month is problem 1 do not care to at
tempt to solve.
I'VE are going through process of re-
adjustment. and we will get back to nor
NAL conditions in time. This reminds me
that the recent panic was the first panic
in which I was a lender of money. At
that time my wealth was made I'D of
cash and good securities. I am not in
terested in the stock market from a spec
ulative standpoint. The tape has few at
fractions for me. ! consider Republic
Steel and Iron one of the soundest and
best managed companies with which I am
identified. The earning power Of the
company is reflected in the showing for
year. Profits applicable to dividends
were sufficient by more than s2OO.O0O to
pay the full Z per cent on the preferred
stock for the entire year..

BANK STOCK SOLD OUT.
Presumably for Account Of One OF
Heinze Party.

NEW YORK. February 25-There was
sold at auction yesterday 100 shares Of
bank stock. presumably for the account
of F. A. Heinze or one of his party. The
stock brought $54, 400 The sale attracted
some attention. as it was evidently made
in hurry. the regular day for the sale Of
such securities being Wednesday. The
McVickar Gaillard Realty Company, at
whose auction rooms on Vesey street the
sale was made. does not usually deal in
this class of assets.
The shares were 800 Of the Mercantile
National Bank. 800 of the Utah National
Bank Of Salt Lake City and 100 OF the
Italian American Trust Company of New
York. In all of these Heinze is known to
have been interested. having been presi-
dent of the Mercantile until his elimina-
ton and a director OF the Utah. That the
stock belonged to him was neither denied
nor affirmed. The current comment was
that the stock represented the collateral
for loan falling due which was not met
The Mercantile stock brought STA a
share. the Utah National $63 and the
Italian American $73. 4 month ago some
Mercantile stock sold as high as $3.50.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

A broker at the meeting today Of the
stock exchange had block OF gas stock
for sale which amounted apparently to
about $50 shares. He succeeded In selling
the lot to different brokers on a range OF
from 511x to STA. While that level repre-
sents the lowest reached by this stock in
recent days. still If he had more for sale
or had been willing to sell more the level
would have been still lower.
In fact. one Of the brokers in preparing
nice low place for more Of the stock to
land if it should be forced on the market
caused records of sales down to JS1s AT
the close the latter was the asking price
and the bid was an eighth OF point
less. The extent Of the market for this
stock was fairly gagged by this trading.
and the condition revealed shows pretty
we'll the situation on the local market.
where there seems TO be no demand for
securities Of any sort.
What the effect of bringing on the mar
ket for sale of any considerable block OF
stock of any of the issues is. of course.
only a matter of conjecture. as it has not
been tried. except today In the case of
gas stock. The result cannot be regarded
although it might be said in the case Of
this particular stock that there is feel
ing OF uncertainty as to the future course
that will be pursued, now that check
mas peeH TcCelVeQ III the progress t1at
was being made to secure authority for an
increase In the capital stock.
1t Is. Of course. announced that 1t Is the
purpose Of the company to appeal the
case from the local court to the Supreme
Court of the United States. and the hope
is expressed that decision can be OBJ
tanned within a year. Still. twelve months
is something Of a wait, especially for those
who are using the stock as collateral for
loans ba sed on the market value Of some
months ago. and while there Is always a
favored by those who would like to pick
up cheap stock. still. II looks as II the
other consideration has some influence in
the case of gas stock.
There was not much done with the other
atcive stocks on the list. namely, the
traction securities, except an improve
ment in the figures or rather an upward
movement in them, which was especially
stock and Washington Railway preferred.
An unusual feature OF the trading when
the latter stock was up was the bid made
by one of the brokers, without any special
provocatfon or suggestion from anything
that was said or done. OF 81 for the diSi-
dend on the preferred stock. This divi-
dend, which is semi-annual, amounts to
$3.50 on each share and the next pa yment
Is not due until the first of next June, so
that the payment Of 80 cents would rep
resent a rather high interest for the
money.
The only response made to this bid was
the offer Of another broker to sell
the dividend for $40. which represents a
much lower price than would be paid for
the cashing of the dividend rights three
months ahead of the regular time.

NEW YORK. February 25.-Broadly
speaking. the stock market today followed
a directly opposite course to that pur-
sued yesterday. Then the tendency of
prices was generally upward with down.
ward reactions, while today the tendency
appeared to be downward with upward
reactions. although both days the
movements in question exhibited the same
almost indescribable degree of irregular
ity.
The two first days in the weeks stock
market showed another point in common,
namely. the almost entire absence of spe
ciffc developments o. consequence to
which the varying course of prices could
BE- attributed.
There was today. to be sure, some lit
tie discussion of the effects upon thu
money market OF the Treasury's recall
from the national banks of some $4,000.
600 of government deposits. but as thu
money market gave little or no reflection
to the circumstances in question. no par
ticuIar stress was laid upon the occur
renee.
Cut Little Figure in Speculation.
As was the case yesterday. the decision
handed down by the Supreme Court a.
Washinston. in the matter of the railwa,
rebatins litigation. while of undoubteS
Importance. seemed to cut little or no
figure in the speculation.
The London stock market was generally
heavy, including the American depart
ment. and was very dull in connection
with the opening of the fortnightly set
tiement. but foreign houses continued
sellers in the local dealings upon a mod
crate scale.
