July Railroad Earnings.

The remarkable increase In the earn,
ings Of the railroads in July. as shown
by the reports now coming in. is due
chiefly to the higher freight and pas.
senger rates. The poor showing by all
roads in June was Influenced by the
fact that the lines charged of In that
month expenses for increased wages
and other items covering the first six
months period. which was not called for
in July's statements In some instances
the betterment In July was almost SO
per cent, as in Pennsylvania case. For
that road the Pennsylvania lines west
of Pittsburg showed an increase Of APP
proximately so per cent. in freight rev.
enues and IS per cent. in passenger re-
ceipts, while the total gross revenues
were 40 per cent above those OF July.
1917. Operating expenses are still rather
helvy. bat Notwithstanding this net oper-
ating income increased by over $1,000
600, a gain OF SC per cent.

Pre-holiday Trading.

Trading in yesterdays stock market
session was Of pre-holiday character,
though echoes of the official warning of
tight money were still heard In financial
circles. Fridays trading did not permit
an estimate of what the effect OF scant
speculative funds will have on the course
OF security values. for transactions were
too limited and price changes too small.
In the two hours between noon and
O'Clock Steel seewsawed between 1924
and ITO on a turnover of about 10000
shares. though In the morning 1t sold
down to 1924. which was equivalent to
113&. figuring the AZ per cent. divi-
dend. Covering of short stock which
had been put out around lie on wednes-
day and Thursday carried II above 10
again, but 1t eased OF fractionally in the
final trading. Other issues were quiet
with the exception OF the Marines and
the low priced rails, which advanced on
the expectations of official consumma-
ton Of the railroad contract early next
week.

September Payments Large.

Over s45o.o0o.ooo will be available
for reinvestment some time next week,
for in addition to the S243,3l2.541 Sep
TENDER dividend and interest disburse-
ments other payments aggregate APP
proximately $3.50, 100000. including the
1892. 7S6.000 United Kingdom OF Great
Britain notes due September /. This
money will come back to the financial
district through investment channels in
substantial way. in the opinion of
bankers. and should be an influential
factor In the securities market early
next month. The total of s243,3l2,5il
to be paid out on dividends and interest
compares with 3157.6Ss.631 in September
year ago. The SS6.612.9l7 to be paid
by the Government on the Liberty Az $
explains why the interest disbursements
are so large. being approximately $751;
1897. against 100000 a year ago.
These large amounts, however, will not
provide funds for any fresh speculation,
bankers say, but will make a possible
new investment buying of the standard
securities.

Europe Needs Our Pho.phate..

The president of the American Agri-
tultural Chemical Company in his re-
marks TO stockholders states that after
the war heavy demand for American
phosphate rock is expected. indicating
how foreign trade winds will blow when
peace comes. This demand will come
from all the European countries. he
says, for the long continued shortage of
phosphoric acid in these countries will
necessitate their importing large quaint
ties of the American product. In the
case OF Germany 1t is pointed out that
she needs our phosphates far more
than America needs her potash, for
phosphoric acid is by far the most es-
sential element in the production of the
grain and fruit Of all crops"

Financing War Enterprise.

Secretary McAdoo's proposal to per-
init the War Finance Corporation to loan
100 per cent. Of the amount they have
advanced to war enterprises, instead of
the 10 per cent now allowed, is heartily
seconded in the financial district. II
will take Congressional action to change
the war finance corporation law, but IL
the Secretary of the TreaSury recon-.
mends 1t there is little doubt of its being
enacted. Banks al present are able to
get only rs per cent Of the loan from
the War Finance Corporation on the Sc.
curity offered. 100 per cent. being ad~
vanced only in cases where additional
SO per cent. collateral Is offered with the

proved by the directors of the War

In pointing out the reasons for the great

declares that 1.-The participation Of the

the least OF our troubles. as fertilizers
have been giving satisfactory results
without potash just as they did in the
early era OF the industry.
1.-The general demand for fertilizers
during the last year has been heavy IN
nearly all sections except in certain N"'

market prices for potatoes and to made

That the Phoenix Union High school board made a wise selection in naming P. A. Venne as orchestra and band leader is the unanimous opinion of all those interested. NIr Venne was very successful in his work with the Indian school band for. a number of years and made that organization one of the best bands in the state His work at the 1 high school will be watched with in terest and from present indications he will soon have two very creditable or ganizations. The pupils should have the best instructors available.
 1 The Community Chorus is fortunate 1 in securing Miss Cordelia Hulburd as i accompanist for this season. She is 1 by education and experience especially we'll fitted for this work. Miss Hull burd is a concert pianist of recognized ability having had two appearances with the Minneapolis Symphony or chestra as well as numerous other concert engagements. She is a pupil of Jossefy and Correno and comes here from the state university of North Dakota, where she had supervision of the piano department for several years She is already making her influence felt in local musical circles.
