FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STOCK MARKET FLucTUATED. Rush of Buying Orders Followed Cal
 ifornia Oil Lands Decision.

New York, June 22-After the re- ceipt from Washington of the familiar announcement that ho decision would be given today in the freight rate case, the stock market settled down for another day of waiting.
 Speculation was dull during the morning, with a slow downward move ment. The course of the market was changed abruptly, however, by the decree of the United States supreme court favoring the claims of the Southern Pacific railroad to Califor- mia oil lands. The ruling of the court caused a sudden rush of buy ing orders. and the quotation of the stock mounted swiftly. There was a demand for commission houses as well as from room traders and at the close the price was 97 3-4 a gain of more than three points.
 The manner in which Southern Pa
 cif'c responded to the decision at tracted attention to the strong posi- tion of the general market, causing covering of shorts and speculative buying. Prices of nearly all of the leading railway and industrial shares joined in an upward movement and at the close small net advances were gen eral.
 In the early trading chief interest lay in the action of the Rock Island securities. The stimulating effect on tile DOnOS Ol InC reorganization plan. causing the upturn of Saturday, had worn off, and quotations were lower all around. Net low records were made by the common stock at 1 3-4: the preferred at 3, and the collateral fours a. 2s 3-4. The other bond issues also lost ground, with greatest heavi- ness in the debentures! The de- clining tendency of foreign exchange was checked, the quotation for de- mand sterling advancing about 25 points. Engagements og s1,6o0, ,600 more gold for export was announced
 It was the opinion of banks, however that the outflow of gold was nearing 1 It's end.
 1 Trading in bonds was unusually heavy, with particular activity ir Rock Island and Southern Pacific is- sues. The market was irregular Chicago and Indiana coal railway f1ves which slumped last week from SS te | 61 broke further today to 45.

GLASSES FILLING UP
 FOR FAIR GROUNDS RACES.
MotorcyeIists and Hersemen Coming in Good Numbers.


 The motorcycle fraternity should remember that entries for their part of the programme at the mammoth meet on the East Great Plain track in Norwich July close June 30.
 The horse races-2.20 trot or pace, 2.3O trot or pace and half mile running race-close July l.
 C. V. Pendleton, Jr.. of 35 Broadway, Norwich, is the man that takes the entries. He reported Monday that all the classes are filling up. and the indi- cations are that some close contests will be the order of the day. Several of the best riders in the east will show up, and horses are coming from a wide territory. Indeed. there never was any expectation that 1t would be hard to get motorcycle entries or horse en- tries. The purses are generous; they amount to about $S50 in all.
 In the five and seven mile open there will, motorcycle followers know, be at least couple of battles royal between Prescott, the New York flyer, who trimmed Ted Carroll, the Springfield crack, in the November races. but who was beaten May 30 by the Bay State boy. Prescott will. he says. bring four good men with him. It is presumed they are New York riders.
 Wild Bill Burdick, according to some of his admirers in this city and close Dy, nldly BnO" HIS DdCk llT6 to lne IHaIl from Gotham and the man from Springfield in the five and seven mile races. It looks now like some hot and heavy excitement, insofar as the motorcycle races go. on the Fourth of July programme.
 The track gets its work ever y now and the banked curves that N ei c recently put in make just the right kind of going for the machines, while the grade fs not so sharp as to bother the horses. The track. one of the best half miles in the United States. is 70 feet wide on the homestretch and from the wire to the first turn; and it is 50 feet wide the rest of the way.
 Practically al&- the prominent horse men in New London county now make no bones of saying July 4 at Norwich will see some good going. Arthur D. Lathrop. Lyman L. Chapman and Mi chael B. Ring are interested-have been from the first. Alderman Fred J. West writes from New London that there's plenty of interest down his way. The city by the sea will send a big delegation. From up the line Willimarftic, Putnam, Danielson, Web ster, Worcester, all that countrywide association has already received 8 great batch of inquiries. and Nutmeg horses will not be the whole entry list.

 Eight Natienaiities Represented.
 The Catholic Transcript says: St. Edwards church of Stafford Springs, has a very nourfshing Holy Name So- city whose officers embrace eight na- fionalities. Though of many tongues the men have only one mind in pur- pose, and one body in action. A gen. eral holy communion day finds a full roll at the rail. A funeral of a de- parted member shows all in line In any parish work needing brain and brawn the pastor throws wistful smile at the Holy Name Society, end the deck is at once cleared for action, and the men piped to quarters. And they always win. One hundred boys and girls of St. Edwards parish re- ceived their first holy communion on Trinity Sunday.

During the year it paid out a pay roll account of s234,- 0S5.72 and milled 4S,110 tons of ore, of a value of s24.09 per ton with an average extraction of 975 per cent there being left in the tailings only T 'cents. The direct charges for min ing, milling treatment and market ing was STEP and an indirect charge each ton of ore of $S.66.
 Whilst this is high it must be un- derstood that the company is open ing new ground and at considerable depth the lowest winze having reach ed close to 1000 feet. The cost of power is $1.41 per ton of ore milled.
 Cyaniding cost approximately $1 per ton as did the milling, while min ing cost above $3 per ton. Taxes were a very heavy item, being at the rate of $1 for each ton treated
 In the workings in the cross cut on the 950-foot level the entire breast is in ore that gives values from $20 to $40 per ton and the latest report is that these values have increased in the drift to an average of s64 across the whole breast. This drift is 200 feet below the present workings.

 stances was the cost of production less. Numerous causes contributed to this increase in cost. The most important was the labor strike in the Lake Superior district, which practi. cally tied up the properties during the last six months of the year and made for heavy increases in the cost of production. Outside of the Michi- gan field, the higher labor costs in certain sections, the heavier taxes, shut downs and in some cases the lower grade of ore were responsible for the higher cost per pound.
 It appears safe to say that the cost of production for the current year will be considerably less than for 1912 due to. a lower possible cost in the Michigan field as the com panies will gradually recover from the strike of last year and should by the latter part of 1914 again be back to normal, and also to the lower costs which should be made at the large porphyry mines.
 If we assume that the copper pro- duced by these mines was indicated a working profit from these producers of more than $60.00O, ,00O.-News Let ter.

A Prospect Associated With
 Scripture

There is a prospect near Patagonia
 that surely ought to be a good one on account of its association and by all accounts it is but I have never seen it personally but the owner writes me occasionally and some day ing to see the prospect. The owners
 name is Bible and what more heaven ly thing could you have than that, his initials are G. l., so if they are reversed you have Big Bible. This is surely a lucky combination and con- dition. It may be that the mine is like the widows oil and will never grow less, or it may be as rich as
 the famous King SolomOn's mine. Or it may resemble in many other re- spects the many references made in the book, that the prospector is nam
 ed after. I hope it wont be like the warning 1 got on my first trip into Mexico. I was warned that I would
 be alright if I didn't carry a Bible
 under my arm or refer to it. For said my informant, there had been a couple of fellows down there who did this and they robbed every one in the country and it would be woe for anyone who was found playing the same game. However as regards the prospect l refer to I hope it is good, like the old book.
