Investment Markets.

Investment bankers report a con
tinually increasing demand for good
bonds Of all classes. with the prefer
ence for municipals and industrials.
Railroad bonds have regained much Of
their former popularity and may be ex-
pected to occupy more prominent posi-
ton than they have for decade. Recent
developments in the financial markets
have been of decidedly constructive
nature, making firm basis for invest
ments and increasing the confidence OF
investors. In fact. 1t Is stated that in
securities Is so great that the bankers
are unable to secure a suA.cient sup
ply to fill the requirements of their
customers. In the month of March, for
example, the sale of municipal bonds
throughout the United States was more
than s50,000.00 and this does not
take into consideration the secondary
sales to investors and institutions of
bonds previously issued. Some of the
larger issues included the state Of New
York's $27.000,000 canal and improve
ment bonds. the city of st. Louis ST.
100000, city of Chicago s2,250,00O and
state Of Georgia s3.525,0oO
Figures specially compiled by the
April a total of $17S,1O4.466 will be
paid to investors. representing divi-
dends and interest disbursements This
compares with s1S0,413,548 last year
This month also the sum Of SS5,1O4,4S6
will be distributed among the stock
holders in the way of dividends, or a
decrease Of $9.509.0s2. This Is due to
the fact that number of corporations
have either reduced or omitted divi-
dends.
Interest payments will approximate
$93. 100000. compared with S85,800,OOO,
the increase representing new bond and
note issues.

which the Bank of England is paying

The English financial writer's and
government officials all claim that the
Bank of England liz doing business as

objections to payments of the metal
and IL is a fact that considerable pay

Alberta begs to enter the lists as a
contender for fame and some of the

diamond the coming season. A base
ball team has been organized here
with Mayor J. A. Schultz as manager
and Albert Wilson, captain. The team
is composed of about the same players
as last year Tut there will be one or
two new men in the uniforms. Last
year this aggregation walloped about
everything they ran across, and once
they took the Morris independents
across their base ball knee for good.
round spanking.
Positions have been assigned al
first and second base, right field and
the battery. The veteran backstop,
Wilson, will catch and Rahline, who
did such effective work OIL the mound
last year, will pitch. Rahline has
something of record as strike-out
artist with full line of curves anc
| speed. His brother is expected here
from Nebraska this summer and this
will add strength to the team. His
brother is also pitcher and an excel
lent short.stop. With the two Rah
lines aboard Alberta's base ball ship
will be extra strong in the hurting
department and can be depended upor
to ram any of the rest of the Graf
going in Stevens county base bal
waters.
The team finished up last year with
about $65 in the treasury and the
boys have already Clipped in to make
the total $500 as start this year.
A dance is being arranged for an af,
ter-Lenten date. Just when the frs
game is to be played has not been de
cided but Manager Schultz is ready
for all corners as soon as the weather
is warmer.
