INVITE GERMAN LAUNDRYMEN
Meeting at Cologne Stirred by Mes
sage From England.
of The Star.

BERLIN. September c5. 1911.
The Pan-German Post publishes vita
great gusto a message from Cologne,
where a congress Of German laundry
men" has been in session. The chairman
Of the congress read an Invitation which
he had received from England asking a
deputation of the German laundrymen"
to visit that country. The meeting was
indignant.
Speeches were delivered about Morocco
and the English interference. and con-
eress members darkly declared that II
they went to England 1t would not be
at the invitation of their English coll
leagues, but unlimited, and at time
which they themselves would select, and
that when they arrived In England they
would wash the Britishers' heads, an ex-
preston equivalent to ''trouncing."

GAINS SOON LOST
Early Advances Overcome by
Heavy Offerings.
STRONG OPENING MARKET
Advances Made on Moderate Trad

ST. PAUL EXTREMELY WEAK
Revival of Rumors of Dividend Re-
auctions Hurts the Issue-Other
Stocks Carried Down.
STRONG OPENING MARKET
ST. PAUL EXTREMELY WEAK

NEW YORK, October Son a mod
crate volume of trading stocks rose frac-
tionally at the opening of the market to-
day. Canadian Pacific made the best ad-
vance. with a gain of a point. New York
Central responded to favorable August
report by rising y. Central Leather and
Lehigh Valley advanced u.
Stocks were supplied freely when prices
were making good progress upward, and
the favorite issues reacted 1 and IL
points. with the list generally selling
well below last night. ST Paul was ex-
ceptionally weak, falling from 100 to 1O6ss
1t closed yesterday at 10S11 The ex-
IRENE weakness of this stock revived the
rumors of possible dividend reductions
and also affected other western stocks
unfavorably. Union Pacific and Amalga-
mated Copper sold point below yester-
days closing. United States Rubber con-
tinued its rise, advancing over two points
to 4iA. The second preferred jumped six
points to 40 on one transaction.
ST., Paul Weakness Causes Recession.
In its salient features the early session
OF the market was virtually a repetition
of the previous day. Prices declined as
soon as it became evident that supply ex-
ceeded demand, but the primary cause
probably was the weakness Of st. Paul,
which was sold by brokers heretofore
prominent on the bear side. The next
dividend action on st. Paul is over three
months off, but the present prices of that
issue would seem to have discounted any
reduction.
Bear operators, finding that they were
not meeting any effective opposition, ex-
tended the scope of their operations in the
second hour and increased the earlier
losses considerably. Amalgamated Cop
per was driven down is. Union Pacific
and International Harvester ~, Lehigh
Valley rs. American Smelling IL, and
Reading, Erie first preferred and the
United States Steel stocks 1.
Tobacco Bonds Down.
Large amounts of the American To-
bacco bonds were pressed for sale, fore
ing the As down y and the IS ~ Other
issues held well.
During midday prices varied scarcely
more than small fractions Traders
were inclined. however, to put out more
stock on the theory that the tendency
was downward rather than otherwise
Opposition to the American Tobacco
plan, which may take on formidable pro-
portions, was deterrent to bullish activ-
ity. Prices were at their lowest by /
o'clock, with marked weakness in United
States Steel. Union Pacific and Amalga-
mated Copper.

Traffic in- creased to an incredible degree. The road now had it's terminus at Fl Paso, where it necessarily had to disgorge its huge business into the nav of the Southern Pacific.
 This evidently was too unreason- able to last; so now we see the eI tension to Tucson. Soon, it seems. We shall see a further extension perhaps to Phoenix And then, look out, for it will a dash for the coast" an irresistible, alLconquering dash that will land inc road !n whatsoever port it elects to make its western terminus.
 And thus we think we nave made clear a thing that already seemed clear so clearly that it seems per plexed"-the development Of an Ari- zoua prospect into a transcontinentaI

PROSPECT

of the Copper Queen mine And even then. for a few years.
 things went in a way to try a mans
 soul. Copper was low, lower than
 now, and the bullion had to be transported by team to Benson. a matter of seventy miles or more.
 Nothing Gauated, the doctor per sisted, ana ere long was figuring oD a railroad connecting rle mines with the Southern Pacific aad Santa Fe systems.
 The railroad project rather stag. gered the easterners. who were re-
 quired to finance the venture; but
 finally Che railroad WIS built-and paid for itself the first year.
 The railroad venture was an eye opener to the customers who had fatuously thought railroads, reason ably capitalized, paid only five and six per cent, as do the shamelessly oyercapitalized roads of today.
 The lesson was not lost upon the astute doctor, however, and he sud denly began to realize that he had not only wrested secret from mountain, but from railroad as well
 The mines now paying profits, it was thought advisable to build line 10 El Paso. This was speedily done. Then the original copper company known as the Copper Queen bought a coal mine in New Mexico and a railroad connecting it with Ei Paso The doctor seemed to have been invested with a magic wand, for this moribound coal mine and railroad immediately developed !. into big money-makers.
 Then mine at Nacozari was ac- quired and another at Morenci; and all, under the guidance and manage ment of Doctor Douglas, proved to be good payers.
 The result of all these paying concerns was that stream of wealth began to flow into the cof. rcrs Of the eastern associates 5f .he doctor until they were threaten. end with engulfment by the very plethora of money.
 This money sought investment Mines cannot be bought every day, and certain t is that they cannot often be found even at tie behest lf money. Therefore the surplus lad to be invested in something ready at hand.
 Then the doctor bethought himself of railroads railroads that whom capitalized make profits exceeding, even those of mines. and in value with time, where. ls mines inevitably tend toward cx- lauston.
 Surveying the railroad field, it was determined that a transconti- ! mental line-one from sea to sea would be of the kind best calculated . tO insure profit and permanency I But as even transcontinental rail ways cannot be bought every day, some circumspection, judgment and were requisite to the ac- quisitiOn of one
 But the man whose faith had . wrestcd the secret from noun tain was equal to the problem now him; and ere long, with out any fuss or feathers, stock was beginning to be secured in the Rock Island Railway, a muribund, mis managed road, running from Chicago 10 a place where it seemed to peter out altogether in Kansas
 The magic wand was applied Co it, and the dcrclict responded most
