STOCKS SLUMP
WHEN PENNA. co.
CUTS DIVIDEND
Parent Company's Shares
Dropped a Point on the
Local Exchange and
Whole List Turned Weak

Up to the time the news reached the
financial district that the Pennsylvania
Company's usual December dividend had
! been reduced from 4 per cent to 1 per
cent. the local market merely markell
time today. But when the Pennsylvania
Railroads chief subsidiary gave out this
action on the the part OF the board,
prices began to recede all around. Not
only was Pennsylvania itself affected, but
the general list as we'll declined, includ-
ing Rapid Transit, Cambria Steel, Lehigh
Valley. Reading, United Gas Improve
ment, Union Traction and Electric and
Peoples is.
Although the Pennsylvania Company's
dividend has been at the rate OF Z per
cent. per annum the payments have been
made per cent. in December and per
cent. I'm June. Just what the annual rate
will be henceforth Is, Of course, not GER
tain, and depends upon future business
conditions. All of the stock is owned
by the Pennsylvania Railroad, which Is,
therefore, directly affected by the loss
of dividends. This, naturally. caused the
street uneasiness as to what action the
parent company would take regarding its
present per cent. distribution. A week
from today the directors OF the "Pan
Handle" another important subsidiary,
meet to act on that dividend. The next
Pennsylvania disbursement is due in
February.
The Pennsylvania Company will have
paid this year, including the present dis
tributicn. only 4 per cent. into the rail-
roads treasury. This means a loss VI
S2,40000O, or about Il OF l per cent on the
railroads stock. The street had looked
for a reduction, but not more than 2
per cent, so that the announcement
caused something of chill in financial
circles. Pennsylvania fell from SO 9-16 to
51Ss in this market The minimum on the
stock is Of.
Up to o'clock it was a typical holiday
session today. Stocks scarcely fluctuated
change today. Stocks scarcely fuctuated
at all throughout the morning. except for
the Offering down of 100 shares OF Lehigh
Valley Transit preferred from % to 27h
before a sale could be effected. AS the day
advanced the tone became heavier. reflect
ing the depressed condition OF the New
York list. United States Steel eased off
and the other so-called arbitrage issues
were also inclined to sag. In the bond
list similar dullness prevailed. Electric
and Peoples As declined nearly point
Disappointment was expressed over the
failure to respond to the an
made by the United States
Steel Corporation concerning wages. This
action on the part of the big Industrial |
was regarded as an Indication |
of a hopeful attitude towards future |
business conditions.

RUSSIAN SHARES RALLY
London Market Showed Firmness.
Hope for Resumption Jan. 4.

LONDON, Dec 2s.--It was taken for
granted today that the Stock Exchange
will be reopened for business on January
4. 1t is probable that official announce
ment of the resumption of business will
be made through the Treasury. 1t is
expected that minimum prices for Sc
curities will be extended and that only
cash transactions will be permitted but
jobbers will probably be allowed certain
discretion in making quotations.
There was large attendance OF
brokers IN the street today. but dealings
in securities were not large. being of a
holiday character. There was a rally 10

Selling by Wall Street Interests
Checked Advancing Tendency.

NEW YORK. Dec. 23.-Following a
dull early afternoon trade. the market
became steadier on increased commission
house buying and covering by local shorts.
The rally carried prices upward several
points, but above $500. for October Wall
Street and Cotton Exchange longs re-
newed their realizing sales, probably in
fiuenced to some extent by the weakness
in the stock market, and the recovery
was checked. Southern spot markets were
officially reported 1-16c. to &c. higher.
The exports today were 1886 bales,
compared with 5S,445 bales on the corre-
spending day last season. Today's fig-
ures include 2454 bales to Great Britain,

NEW YORK. Dec 2s-As the result OF
general iiuuidatinE movement IN which
commission houses Joined, a sharp de-
cline IN prices occurred In the late after
noon and lasted to the close At the
end Of the day prices were OF from X to
points. At the same time there were
persistent offerings OF securities by room
traders and some foreign selling. Stand
ard railroad shares led the decline, as
they had been the leaders in the upward
movement prominent In the trading on
Monday and In the latter part OF last

The sharp drop in Pennsylvania Rail-
road was caused In large measure. by
the action OF the Pennsylvania Ccrrau"
N cutting the semiannual dividend to I
per cent. compared with 4 per cent de-
uiared for the same period last year. BY
this action the Pennsylvania Railroad,

Before the announcement of the cuttinf
OF the Pennsylvania Company dividend
the market began to go of and became
moro active. at the end of the noon hour.
Prior to this very little had been done,
and the opinion was expressed that bust
ness would be on a small scale until after
the holidays.
The reaction OF the market was not
entirely unexpected, In view of the fact
that prices had been generally moving
upward since the exchange reopened, but
Il was depressing on sentiment, to say
the least. II was pointed out I'm many
places In the street that the market is
generally dull at this time of the year.
and no one expects any great change
until after the first of the new year.
Some surprise was caused by the action
OF the Imperial Bank Of Germany in re-
ducing the discount rate to per cent.
This was the ruling figure before the
European war started.

CLEAN ZIP DAY

The council of the village of Wause-
on have appointed Monday May the
4th as the annual clean up day and
householders are requested to collect
all rubbish that has accumulated on
their premises during the year and
place same at the curb line in the
streets; wagons will collect this rub
bish on May 4th and 5th. AS in
former years charge of ten cents
for each barrel of rubbish taken away
will be collected. Rubbish does not
include garbage but is intended to in
clude old tin cans, broken glass, china
etc. At this time the health officer
James E. Cantelberry desires to call
attention to the fact that the State
Health Department require him to
strictly enforce rules governing the
keeping of out door privies, chicken
houses and etc. in sanitary condition
and all such places should be cleaned
up at once and kept in sanitary con-
dition.
Our good friend A. P. Sandles
sounded the right note in his talk
here last Thursday, when he pied
with citizens to stand by their own
town; trade at. home; patronize the
people who are. helping to make and
maintain the town, who pay taxes
here, invest their money here, con-
tribute to the churches and other in
stitutions that are located here. HERE
is where you live and here is the place
where your patronage as well as your
influence should be felt.
