to-day. 1t established a new low record,
and passing of the dividend on the com
mon and perhaps reduction of the rate
on the preferred is expected. This stock,
however, is getting to a level that will
soon make 1t attractive because of the
low price at which cotton seed should
be procured for the next years busi-
ness Cotton was around low levels to-
day in spite of the resolutions of South
ern governors and planters to refuse to
sell.
Although a careful examination of the
situation shows a preponderance of in
fiuences tending to make stocks less
valuable it must be admitted that here
and there comfort can be found for
those taking the other point of view
Railroad earnings, for instance, con-
tinue large. Bank clearings are at high
level. The price of corn is about IS
per cent greater than II was a year ago
and thus makes up largely for the loss
Of harvest. Wheat is about per cent
higher in price. Cotton is about two
thirds of last years price, but this is
counterbalanced by the tremendous size of
the crop. Farmers report that there has
been heavy growth of forage as a re-
suit of the abundant rains late in the
season. And, finally the public mind has
been profoundly impressed by the sharp
recovery of the stock market that has
taken place after each of the two Sc
we're breaks recently
No attention was paid to preparations
made by the government to prosecute the
steel corporation and certain railroads
for alleged rebatng. Denial of a Kan
sas City judge of a petition enioining
a reduction of freight rates on the Mis-
souri, Pacific was also overlooked. A
General revision of railroad rates in
Western and Southern territories will
be made in December to become effec-
tive about February l.

FINANCE AND REALTY

Liquidation was freer at yesterdays s
meeting of the stock exchange than it
has been in weeks. 1t was a field day
for both stocks and bonds and together
with two other good days this week will
bring. the total of six days trading, it
is believed, far ahead of figures for last
week
Bonds, which figured freely Wednesday,
again led the trading, though stocks Gre
ated no slight interest Most of the buy
ing, however, was for investment, and in
this the bonds naturally proved shade
more attractive.
Most prices were strong and there were
some advances. Mergenthaler was one Of
the very few exceptions, though Merg
figured freely in the trading. The stock
made no repression from the opening
price, but it-230-marked the lowest level
reached by the popular linotype stock in
weeks.
Railway common, which has been gath
ering strength, apparently for some
weeks, again registered a sharp advance,
moving up to 42 1-2 on twenty-hve-share
transactions, and advancing again to 43
on a 10o-share sale after call Preferred
ranged from 81 Ia down to "a, eighty
shares being sold in all. Railway Is were
traded in to a face value Of 5000 at IS 1-2.
Gas IS were in good demand at 10 IA,
at which level bonds to a face value Of
81, 900 were sold. Traction IS were steady,
but not in demand at 110. Yesterday S
price for warrants for the new per cent
bonds of the company held good, one 500
sale being made at 9. Columbia 6s were
steady at 1o3 Ia
Gas was in good demand, but at no
advance over Wednesdays prices. The
bidding started at 81 SIS during call and
closed on the regular call at 81 1-2 After
call the selling opened at 1-2 and main
tanned that level. In all Ill shares were
sold.
National Insurance sold 145 shares at
Ia and United States Trust sold ten
shares at 119 1-2.
To Entertain Commerce Heads.
At a conference yesterday attended by
G. Grosvenor Dave, managing director
of the Southern Commercial Congress;
Richard B. Watrous, secretary of the
American Civic Federation; Thomas
Grant, secretary of the Chamber
of Commerce, and Granville NJ.
Hunt, chairman of the conventions COM
mittee of the Chamber, plans for the
entertainment of the delegates to the
1912 convention OF the Commercial Exec
utives of the United States were dis
cussed. The convention will be held in
Washington next october.
The body is made up of officials of
chambers of commerce, boards of trade,
chairmen of conventions and exploiting
committees, and men interested in such
work from all over the United States.
AS a means of advertising a city. the
body is considered second only to the
National Association of Ad Clubs. The
body will be in Washington three days,
and will bring about $50 delegates and
several hundred visitors. 1t has never
met in Washington before.

ROCKFORD COLLEGE.

Further New study Departure and
New Residence Hall.
While Rockford college stands primarily
for cultural work, and while it's standard
of scholarship is unquestioRsbly high, the
administrative authorities are. neverthe-
less. OF the opinion that some degree OF
training for efficiency IL not incompatible
with a high scholastic standing, and that
II tends to an all Cund development. With
this aim In view, Rockford college six
years ago instituted q course in home eco
Monies, and also a secretarial course, both
open TO young women who chose to elect
them. Rockford Is the first woman's col
lego ranked rs first class In scholarship
which has afforded such opportunities to
its students, and the number Of girls who
are eleoting these subjects while pursuing
the regular college course ia every year
increasing. Next September another de-
partment, tending to the development Of
the college girl along home-making lines,
IL to DO introduced. This department will
offer special courses In domestic art. in
Guiding hand and machine sewing in all
it's branches, sarment-making, millinery.
embroidery, home decoration. applied de-
sign and arts and crafts work.
The new residence hall Of Rockford COL
lege is now ready for students. II is In
the shape of right angle, and, with Lin
den hall and sill hail. 1t encloses three
sides Of a quadrangle. The court enclosed
on three sides by the buildings, is a de-
oided addition to the beauty OF the grounds,
The first floor is occupied by a large
reception hall. II the present plans can
be carried out by some friends of the col
lege, the furnishing and decoration OF this
hall will make 1t one of the most beautiful
and attractive spots on the whole premises.
The rest OF the floor is to be occupied by
the bedrooms, toilet rooms and baths and
by the infirmaFy, The latter is placed in
the southwest part of the first floor. has
q sunny exposure and rooms that connect
with a special bath room by private corri-
doris. thus securing complete isolation from
the rest of the building A guest room IL
also located on the first floor, which will
be suitable for entertaining speakers and
other distinguished visitors to the college,
The number of bedrooms In the dormitory,
both single and double, make the total
capacity of the building over 100. This
will house all the students now in the cot
tagss, and viii very considerably increase
the present dormItory capacity besides.

POLITICAL.
CORPORATION TAXES
BOOSTED MILLIONS
Real Estate Men Fight to Raise
Assessments on Public Serv-
ice Corporations.

The taxpayers OF Omaha wildly bear
IN mind tho work OF the Omaha Real
Estate Exchange In compelling the public
service corporations TO pay a just share OF
taxes for city ana county purposes. The
now famous struggle OF the Real Estate
Exchange TO raiaf the taxes OF the public
service corporations recalls 10 mind the
activity OF Fred Hoye in his efforts 70
have the Exchange receive a hearing be-
fore the city council. which had been denied
by the Corporations gang Of five" which
dominated the council. As a board Of
equalization the members OF the council
were called upon to eaualiEe taxes ana
place the assessment OF the corporation
at figure where they properly belonged
The gang which represented the cor
porations denied the Exchange the privi-
lege Of a hearing. but through the per-
sistsnes Of Fred HOye ana other friends
Of the common taxpayers in the council
the members OF the Exchange appeared
on the floor OF the council and made a
vigorous demand for legitimate assessment
OF the corporations. The result was that
the assessment OF q fsg years previous
was raised many millions. This meant
the payment OF thousands OF dollars an
nually by the public service corporations
and relieved the general run Of taxpayers
from a heavy burden OF taxation which
for many years had been dodged BY the
corporations.
