Dizziness Is Intense in the
Security Market.
LITTLE MORE FIRMNESS SEEN
Missouri Pacific Announces Long
TaIked-of Bond Issue - Aftermath
of Telegraph Merger American
Cotton oil Common only Weak
StOck-Cnuse for the Liquidation.

New York. Nov 17.-There was little
change to-day in the character OF the Sc
curity market. and during a good share
OF the time dizziness was intense The
principal stocks. or those which are usu-
ally the leaders OF the market, were
quescent. and such notable variations in
prices as were witnessed were confined.
with one exception, TO the minor issues.
Some OF these so-called smaller stocks
were weak, others were strong. In the
main the market. although entirely with
out definite tendency. seemed 10 exhibit
a little more hrmness than It did yester-
day and plus signs were somewhat more
numerous than minus signs In the tabula-
ton OF quotations at The days close.
Bond Issue Announced.
As would be naturally expected from
the foregoing. the day was without any
important financial development, or at
least none that had not been fully an
ticipated. Ono OF these was tho formal
announcement OF the Missouri Pacihc's
long-talked-of bond issue.
The stockholders Of the Missouri Pa
cins are to be asked TO authorize an is
sue OF $4,000 600 per cent convertible
refunding mortgage bonds, TO be offered
70 the shareholders at s5 OF this issue
little less than S3O.Oo0O0O are 70 be used
at once. and Of the entire $l75. 10000 OF
bonds authorized about S53O00.OO0 are to
be used 20 provide new money for the
uses Of the road.
There was again naturally much talk
to-day. although Il was not accompanied
by any further official disclosure OF
details regarding the transfer Of the con-
troll OF the Western Union Telegraph
Company 70 the American Telephone
and Telegraph interest
The common understanding Is I'm the
financial district that the circumstances
means. II not az the immediate moment.
az least at the not very distant future.
a general merger of all the telephone
and Geographic interests I'm the country
and therefore as might have been ex-
pected. gossip busted itself 10 some ex-
tent with the possibility Of interference
with this plan at tho hands Of the gov
eminent
only Weak stock.
The only really weak stock today was
American Cotton on common. which
made a net decline Of one-half point
upon further Tquldaung sales OF the
sort that have gone on ever since the
directors OF tho company declared an
annual dividend Of per cent and
made known their determination 70 ask
the stockholders TO authorize dividends
hereafter semi-annually Instead OF an
nually as has heretofore been the rule.
The cause FOR this liquidation has been
commonly ascribed 20 prodt-tak'ng con-
sequent upon the rapid advance in the
price OF American cotton oil stock dur
Ing the present year.
Particularly strong stocks IN the mar
ket to-day were the Colorado Fuel and
Iron, Columbus and Hooking Coal and
Iron, Missouri Kansas and Texas. Pitts
burg Coal and Virginia Coal and Iron
and Coke shares.

The next time the Republican insur-
gents in the House desire TO make a
