STOCKS FOR
MEN OF MILLIONS

Copyright 1914. By c. N. Keys. New York;
There is a limited class of securities
dealt in on the markets of tie world
adapted only for the very wealthy. These
stocks are those which have run to ex-
traordinary high prices on account Of
great success and large dividends. 1t Is
curious. but nevertheless true. that the
very prices at which these stocks are
dealt in attract the relatively small in
weston and one finds little blocks of one,
two. or three shares at a time put away
in unexpected places and sometimes in
the hands of women or of men whose
funds are really small and who have no
right to own stocks selling at abnormal
prices.
When a stock runs up over>a price of
500 for q 800 share. it becomes what is
called a high priced stock. no matter
what its real value may be. One finds
securities Of tins sort quite plentiful in
the list of bank stocks and Insurance
stocks relatively numerous in
the list Of pill stocks and occasionally in
the list Of Industrial stocks. Only in
very rare cases can Il be said that they
constitute an investment at for private
ownership unless the investor be very
rich man. ~
Tho reasons are fairly obvious. In the
nrst place. when . stock reaches this

WIN MAKE brsa1 for exclusive saie by
tbs tobacco COMPANY.
Directors q the Nissouri Pacific are
holding sessions d6lly IN an e6ort 20 un-
rsvel the financial tangis In which the
cornpany haa been caught They are re-
ported to be wiling 70 make almost any
reasonable concesston even 10 the extent
Of resigning their places in favor OF
board to be chosen BY Kuhn, L1oeo z 20.
But eloquent silence 70 maintained on
the real point az issue. namely. whether
the Gouids win agree TO eliminate them
selves nt the bshest Of the bankers APP
parentIy they are a. unwilling as ever
to make such . sacrifice. This - not
surprising to those who know the tenacity
with which they have chung to the
Missouri Pacific. The Street still re-
fuses to belieye that receivership VIII
be permitted. The fact that Kuhn. Loeb
& Co. have participated In the past In
fiotations of Missouri Pacific bonds Is
regarded a. reason for them to feel
stroneIy interested in the welfare OF the
railroad, Mop" was weak but failed
to break to its recent low.
President Ripley. Of the Atchison. says
the only factor stimulating business is
the splendid crop outlook. Kansas wheat
estimates range from 1so.oo0o0 bushels
up. One enthusiastic expert guesses lso,
coo,OOO bushels. Mr.. Ripley says that II
is early to estimate the Atchison's April
net earnings He was asked what he
thought, In case things go along about
as they are until the end OF the fiscal
year. the annual report should show
earned on the common stock. Mr.. Ripley
replied:
The regular dividend was recently de-
ciared and you may be sure 1t would not
have been declared II 1t was not well
earned. The AtchiEon has the satisfac-
ton of having got through the year
without Issuing a note Of any kind. and
today 1t has not one cent OF floating in
debtedness.
II regard the general railroad retrench-
ment of the past year as serious In IT'S
effect upon the properties as whole II

acter of 1t is cumulative. Maintenance

bulge last week of IA to 25-s cents In
the new crop futures was due to stories
OF damage In Missouri and rllinois. which
were sprung on the trade when the
market was oversold. These stories start
ed . scramble to cover.
It was the provisions In the sale Of the
SO 100000 i've year notes that first broke
Chesapeake and Ohio stock. and
furnished reports that the xcompany's
current dividend rate Of per-ce was IN
danger. -
In the five year life of the notes, the
company must take out OF. current In
come 81 1900 for property improvements
before dividends may be paid. In the
fiscal year ending June 30. 1915. 3, 000, 600
must be so set aside. payable in quarterly
irstalments, the first of which Is due
August ]. The other three quarterly pay
ments for the next fiscal year are pay
able November l next. February 1. 1915.
and May !. 1915. each of $4,000.
The company really has fiscal year
and three months in which to make up
the total for the period ending June 80.
1915. and 1t is plain that ability to pay
dividends is to be measured by years
and not by quarters. At the meeting
yesterday. the provisions of the note sale
did not have, to be considered In de-
claring the regular dividend.

In the afternoon to TexarkAna messages. saying
Texas condition about 90. against 81 last year
Most Of the crowd turned bearsh and probably
went homs short. figuring on weekend liquidation
today. Personally. do not think the weather con
ditions had very much to do with the decline. The
market had just simply been bulled too much for
the present. and q natural lot Of pront-tadng en-
sued. On any further decline the next day or two
would prefer the buying side. The market closed

FLINDERS ARE CONDEMNED.

Instead of helping toward the comfort
and safety of horse. binders are in
struments OF torture and should be
abolished. according to bulletin pub
lished by the American Society for Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals. 1t is ex-
planned that binders are wrong in prin-
ciple and tend toward actually making
a horse blind. A horse sees any one
object with but one eye. Each eye Is
constructed to see at right angles with
the body looking from the side of the
head in opposite directions. Therefore
