 PICK FOR THE
 SPEGULAT0RS

NEW YORK. Nov. 17.-One of the most important factors in the mar ket picks United States Steel as the best speculative proposition in the list at present He bases his selec- ton on the known earnings for the first nine months Of this year and the prospectus for next year Very roughly. this year will show about S225.OOO.OOO of net earnings, assum- ing that the final quarter will do bit better than the third quarter
 Next year may be expected to re- cord net earnings of $275,O00,OOO, or slightly better than $4,OOO,OOO a month ahead of this year. The two years should therefore record $6OO,- OOO,OOO of net.
 From this should be deducted for bond interest, sinking fund deprec- iation and preferred dividends, about S165. 100000 for the two years. leay- ing $485, 100000 for the $5OS00O.O0O common stock or close to So a share. This balance of course would be subject to such deductions for new construction as the board might see tit
 In fact the larger part Of these enormous earnings will be employed to stabilize and increase the earning power of the Steel Company.
