OVER PRIVATE WIRES
S. R. Stewart & Co.,s Letter


 New Orleans, November 10.-Light rains in scattered portions of the western belt, with cold rains in Arkansas and West Tennessee, occurred last night, while con tinued cold rains followed by cold wave predicted for the entire cotton belt. Liv- erpool came over about as expected closing, however, 30 American points above the opening figures. It is due down on January opening tomorrow. Our market opened about unchanged and soon worke doff on selling by the trade on the early morning depressing news of Great Britain's exports of 100000 pounds of yarn in October less tan the same time last year, the reduction of shirtng 50 to 60 per cent by a big New York man. |ufacturer and the continued pessimistic 'feeling among the southern mill centers.
 December opened at 1Sc. sold as high as IS. 56c, as low as r 73c, while the finals were 1S.22c.
 The early morning selling was absorbed chiefly by the Japanese interests and prominent New York spot firm. This buying took so many contracts out of the market that they were scarce for the balance of the session, the market av- eraging higher on short covering. There was very little pressure apparent, and the absence of hedge selling had much to do with the frmness. The sentiment among the ring crowd is mixed, slightly favoring the bull side. We, however, strongly advise the purchase of January around 1z50c. Any further decline than

New York. November To- (Special)- At the present rate of American in- vestment ip Canadian industries there will have been within five years sent to Canada from the United States through the purchase Of stock in Cana dian industries and in securities at least one billion dollars. Much of this investment not taking into considera- ton the absorption by the United States Of Canadian municipal and other bonds is represented by the pulp and paper industries. This country has been shy of newsprint paper for many months and we have been accustomed to hear that Canadas prosperity has been in some measure due to the pulp and paper industry, This Canadian industry rep resents about 275. 1000 O000 and nearly one-thiro of this sun, IS American capi- tai. In the entire dominion there are 600 branch factories controlled en- tirely by United States capital and how rapid has been investment of this kind is shown by the fact that last year 200 American branch factories were established in Canada.
 Canada is venturing rapidly into the field of railroad and terminal electrifi- cation. in that respect following the example of Great Britain, word comes to New York, that the harbor and rail- way terminals at Montreal are in course of identification and that is more than can be said of almost all of the railway terminals in the United States? By the first of May 42 miles of electri- fled railway terminals at Montreal will be in operation. Switzerland and France are not the only nations in Europe which are undertaking railroad electri- fication. The United States has in- vested in large loan recently made of S25, 5,000 900 in securities issued by Switzerland for the purpose of secur- ing funds whereby her unsurpassed water powers can be utilized for the creation of hydroelectric energy with which to operate her railroads. So also
 in France railway identification is under way. But it was not presumed until information recently came from Great Britain that in England and in Scotland considerable railroad electri- fication would be undertaken at least at present. Now We hear that one of the railroads in northwestern England is. to electrify its lines between New. Castle and York while in Scotland one of the most important of it's railroad lines which is the one which connects Pert with Inverness in northern Scot land is speedily to be electrified Wa ter power which is abundant in Scot land is to be used for the purpose of creating electric enerov

THE GREATEST OF MELONS

The securities market on the day after election did not appear to reflect in any way the influence which the election in other presidential years has always exerted. But euriously enough the Southern Pacific Railroad com pany's market quotations for stock. jumped upon that day and continued to jump for several days after. This, how ever, was only a coincidence because the election had not the slightest in- fluence in the appreciation of the mar ket quotations of this stock. That rise in quotations was due entirely to the fact that the Southern Pacific man. agement is now able to announce that it has under contemplation the distribu tion Of these s200,000,o00 or perhaps $500, GOO 900 thereby segregating it's oil properties from it's railroad operation
 Julius Kruttschnitt whose manage ment of the Southern Pacific during war days has greatly increased the fine reputation he earlier gained, clear ly intimates that the stockholders should not be tempted to part with their stock In other words reading between the lines of the information there is discovered a clear hint that the stockholders would gain far more by waiting until the method of dis tribution is decided upon than they
 
 this rising market
 Mr Kruttschnitts intimation is the second of the kind which has been made in the past two or three years. The first one was without any prece- dent. It was found in an advertisement issued over the name of President Marston of the Texas Coal and Oil company who advised the stockholders of that company to resist temptation to market their stock, although the quotations for it were rising until at last they reached 2,000 upon a par of 100. In earlier days managers of cor porations who had good reasons for knowing that a great appreciation in the value of stock was about to be re- ported would have been tempted to take quiet and personal advantage of that appreciation not giving stock holders any opportunity to participate in the benefits.

So successful has been the electrifi- cation of much the greater part of the western division of the St. Paul rail-
