May Build Road
 to the Coast

Tbat the Fl Psso & Southwestern
 and the Rock Island are getting ready /! to build from Tucson to the coast is
 the firm belief oi railroad men on the coast. The belief strengthens in spite of the repeated deoisls made by officials of the system in question.
 I'M Schumacher, vice president and general manager of the South western, John Sebastian, vice presi- dent of the Rock leland. and other high officials are making frequent trips to ihe coast this spring and have repeatedly been in conference in Lqs Angeles.
 That the Southwestern would like sn outlet 10 the Pacific co a to ship bullion Of the Copper Queen. and other branch of the Phelps-Dodge in- terests, through the canal, is no sec- ret. The surveys of the route have been made. Runors are thick that the track constructed by the Spreck- els road is to be purchased.
 It is said that valuable terminal ct San Diego have been se- .u.edl
 The route would lie through Phoe- ,ix, Yuma, the Imperial Valley and San Diego to Los Angeles.
 It is plain that it would be great .dvantsge to have the road copstruc;. d by 1915, SO e to get . share of the ravel to the San Francisco lair.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York. Dec. 31-The tone of the
stock market showed distinct improve
ment, today. Throughout the session
there was strong under current and
substantial gains were made in all de-
partments. The Hartman and Hill is
sues coppers, coalers and steel, developed
marked strength and many of the less
conspicuous shares also reached a high
er level. Brokers active in trading said
that the important feature was the small
supply of stocks Although the demand
was noticeabiy better. the amount OF
business was not large and quotations
were advanced on comparatively light
bidding.
The unexpectedly favorable conditions
of the money market contributed to the
strength of stocks Instead of the pre-
dieted year-end furry, the rate for cali
money did not go above the opening fig
ure of per cent. and the demand for
loans from the Stock Exchange was SO
small that before the end of the day
there was a sharp drop.
Buying of steel was encouraged by the
weekly iron trade reviews, which stated
that the outlook for the new year in iron
and steel was exceptionally bright. The
bond market improved in sympathy with
stocks with a better demand in anticipa-
ton of the reinveStment movement which
year-end disbursements and dividends are
expected to bring. Total sales, par value,
81. 10000. United States bonds were I'M

I912's Financial
Record Not Pleas
ing to New York

New York, Dec. 31.-The year in
the financial district was far from
satisfactory. in the stock market,
lower prices and restricted business
We're the most adverse features. of
the various commodity markets the
cotton exchange almost alone had an
active and profitable year. The enor-
nous crop of cotton was itself a pre-
tentative against such disaster ana
spectacular markets as were witnessed
in the Rooms" of recent years.
The dullness in the stock market
found partial reflection in the opera
tions of local banks and trust COM
panies, but all these Institutions are
believed to be in better condition than
at any time since the close of 1907,
and many have added handsomely to
! their resources and surplus accounts
Banking houses, especially those with
international connections, have felt
the effect of the worldwide harden
ing of money the congestion of the
securities markets here and in Europe,
and latterly the decline caused by the
Balkan war.
Refunding operations and maturing
obligations of miscellaneous char
acter threaten to press hard on the
domestic money market in the course
| of the next few months, quite apart
from any fresh financing. Actual loans
of clearing house banks, last week,
exceeded deposits by over $4,000, 600
and this is synptomatic of conditions
at many important reserve centers.
! For this reason, it is pointed out, the
money situation is being regarded
with increasing solicitude and most
necessarily be the most accurate ba-
rometer affecting all home projects
| for some time to eane.

u. Patent Office
Marks Prosperity
OF Nation for 1912.

washington, Dec 31.-The marked
prosperity of the country is reflected
in the receipts of the United States
patent Office from fees for appliea-
tions. according to Edward T.. Moore.
commissioner of patents in his annu-
al report, today, to the secretary oil
the interior Total receipts of the Of e
flee for the fiscal year. ending June 80,
We're $2,094, 059, compared with $l,9Sf,
TO for the previous fiscal year. The
tota! expenditures were $2,026,9l2 and
the net surplus of receipts over eN-
penuitures was sos, 147. The grand to-
tai of net surplus over all expenditures
is now $T,132, 072. In the past fiscal year
the number of applications for patents
for inventions aggregated 69236,
against IS. 154 for the fiscal year ended
June 50, 1911. The total number OF ap-
plications for petents for inventions,
for designs, for REISSUE of patents,
reg i3tration of trade marks labels,
prints, disclaimers to patents and APP
peals was 81 AIS compared with 1898
for the fiscal year 1911, an increase OF
Jo76.
The report shows that there were
3,5o5 patents Stdlted, Litlbid1hs, -
issues and designs and 1886 trade
marks, 625 labels and PCS prints were
registered, during the last fiscal year.
The number of patents that expired
was 1881. The number of allowed ap-
plications which were by operation oil
law forfeited for non-payment OF the
final fees was $50. The number of APP
plications for mechanical patents shows
an increase of 1852 over the previous
fiscal year, an increase for the 10
years since 1903 of 40.72 per cent.
Commissioner Moore points out that
since the decisions of the commits
sioner are now final within the office
and that appeals are no longer made
to the secretary of the interior. the
connection of the patent office with
the department is SO slight that II
would seem that its separation and es-
Establishment as an independent bureau
is eminently desirable"
The commissioner also recommended
that new building be erected for the
patent office. The present quarters, he
says, are unsanitary and crowded. and
valuable records are in constant dam
ger of destruction by fire.
