JANUARY INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS
They VIII BE the Largest in the
Counfry's History

]. Frank Howell of New York says
During the month of January, 1910. there
viii be paid TO holders Of stocks and bonds of
the various corporations of the United States
more than S225. .00O. 900, or the largest interest
and dividend disbursements in the history of
finance in this country. These enormous pay
ments of money, compiled by J. Frank
Howell Of the Consolidated stock exchange of
New York, compare with similar payments in
the corresponding month of 1908 of approx
mately $19S, 900, 600 and disbursements in Jan
uary OF 1907 of $40 900, 600. The great increase
in payments for the coming month over the
same month Of last year represents great Inn
proyement In general business conditions in the
last half of 1909 compared with the CON
ditions prevalent in the period in 1908
time when the country suffering from the
full effects of the business depression from the
panic OF the preceding year. In January of
1908 payments showed a great falling of as
compared with the payments of the same month
of 1907. and this was due directly TO the whole
sale cutting passing and deferring Of payments
because OF the great relaxation in business ac
tiTites in the period represented by these pay
ments.
Railroads win pay to share holders in Janu-
airy little more than $72, 000. 600. an increase
of about SAG 600 600 over the same month of LAST
year, while stock holders of industrals, mining
and public utility concerns will receive more
than $1,000 200, total Of $133, ,000. 600 in dyi
dends. Interest payments will aggregate more
than $92,OOO.OOO, OF which $62 600 600 will repre-
sent the liked charges on the outstanding rail-
road bonds and S30, ,000.0 90 interest payments will
be made on the combined bonded indebtedness
of the miscellaneous corporations of the country
I'm history. and show TO what extent the
large corporate concerns forced to borrow
funds 10 meet maturing obligations during the
pressing days following the panic.
At the end OF this year more than 81 500
900. 600 win have been paid stock and bond
holders, which is the record for such payments
little more than 81, PAS. .000. 900, while in 1907
payments aggregated less than 81 1926 900 900 y
The San Francisco call., 1909-12-17
STOCK MARKET
AGAIN SLUMPS

NEW YORK, Dec l6.-Diffculty was
found in throwing of the lethargic ten
dency which crept into speculation today.
The movement in prices was halting and
irregular and there were long pauses IN
activity when many stocks practically
dropped out of the trading.
Forced sales under such circumstances
cause widespread breaches in values and
give an impression of hollowness and OF
msnipulative origin for the short lived
activity.
The principal interest Of the traders to-
day was in attempting to draw deductions
from the action of Reading as to the gen.
eral speculative position. Yesterdays divi-
dend increase did not induce sufficient new
demand to lift the price. Adherents of the
bull position derived considerable satisfac-
tion from the lightness of the pressure to
realize on the good news. The increase in
the dividend has been so long anticipated
and the price lifted so high that violent
reaction has been dreaded. As long ago as
early September, Reading had risen to
S17sH in anticipation of dividend in
crease and has not risen as high since
In view of the prolonged and constant
speculative use winch mas oeen maoe o1
xhe higher dividend expectation for Read
ing. the reactionarY force in the stock to-
day must be regarded as extremely moder-
ate.
The demand in the general list was
soanty. The passing of the year and period
was felt to be desirable before attempting
large market operations. The question of a
gold movement to London was left open by
the active demand for remittance in con-
nection with year end requirements.
The reduction in the premium of New
York exchange at Chicago this week in
dicates less inducements here to draw
funds from the interior. The news of the
absorption of independent telephone COM
psnies by the banking house which has
transacted recent financing of the American
telephone company strengthened the i'm
preston of the uninterrupted campaigns of
consolidation of corporate interests which
is in progress.
Bonds were steady Total sales, par
value, s3,s62, 900.
United States bonds were unchanged on
call.

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE
FS1ture Grain and Provisions

CHICAGO, Dec. 16.-Wheat for December de-
livery sold here today for S1.041s per bushel, a
new high record for the crop and a gain of
212c compared with the previous close. The
new high point in wheat was reached late in
the day. Buying was general during the final
hour and prices were forced up from 1Ssc to
21sc from the low figures of the session The
greatest gain was in December. which was in
urgent demand by shorts, who bid the price up
from LIPS to $1.14A. May advanced from
$l09& to $1.117s. The upturn was due chiefly
to sharp advances at nearly all the leading
grain centers of Europe, caused by lighter Of
ferings of wheat from Argentina and Australia.
An advance of more than lie in the price of
wheat at Buenos Aires seemed to give color to
the reports of serious damage TO the Argentine
crop by the recent frosts, and this was factor
In the late trading here. The market closed at
almost the highest point with December at
l14B and May at $1.11A M1.11T.
The bulge of wheat offset the effect of a
drop in tempera ture the corn belt and
caused strong tone in the market during
the final hour of the day The market closed
hrm at almost the top, with prices unchanged to
1ac higher.
Oats were weak owing to selling brought out
by the government report. which indicated the
new crop to be the largest on record Cioscing
prices were shade to sc higher.
Provisions closed 17A to IS cents higher.
The leading futures ranged follows:
Articles. Open. High. Low. Close.

potatoes. Onion. and Vegetables


There was very little life to the market for
miscellaneous vegetables yesterday. and although
receipts light sellers were unable to effect
clearances Of anything. the prices asked for
choice offerings checked the demand and buyers
paid hardly any attention TO poor lots The mar
ket for potatoes and onions was in good shape,
with sellers expecting higher range of values
for the best selections of both. -Four sacks OF
volunteer potatoes came in from across the
bay. but they had not been sold up to late
hour.
Potatoes (per etI)-River white. 700s5e for
