Montana Power Dividend

The break in Montana Power yes
terday from "a to 7oA was attributed
to disappointment over the failure of
directors to increase the dividend
rate on the common stock, only the
regular quarterly distribution Of 70
cents a share having been declared.
1t had been predicted in some quar-
tiers that the annual rate would be
raised because Of an improvement in
earnings since the first of the year.
The weakness of the stock was only
temporary, however, as shortly after
the news regarding the dividend was
out there was price recovery to 10,
This represented net loss of ~
points compared with Tuesdays last
sale.

No Extra Exchange Holiday

Governors of the Stock Exchange
yesterday turned down the petition Of
members to close the exchange on the
Saturday preceding Labor Day, despite
the fact that 448 brokers had attached
their signatures to the document. The
action Of the governing committee
came in the nature of surprise ia
view Of previous limitations that the
petition would receive favorable con-
sideration. However, in recent years
1t has been the policy OF the governors
of the exchange not to grant holidays
except those generally observable un-
der the law. 1t Is felt that it ia unwise
to close the greatest security market
In the world while the banks remain

Rates on European centers turned
easily yesterday and despite slight
recovery most exchanges showed de-
cline for the day. Cable rates on Lon
don fell back fractionally and German
marks dropped to another new low
level, while francs eased further.
Czech crowns, on the other hand, were
again in strong demand and scored a
substantial advance to another new
high for the movement.

AT ARGONAUTM Mine
IS NEARING FINISH
Three Rescue Parties, in
Short Shifts. Work
Frantically.

grim race with death continued at
the Argonaut mine today.
Three rescue parties, working
frantically in short shifts in three
different spots, were fighting their
way slowly toward the depths of
the mine where forty-seven min
ers were imprisoned Sunday night
by fire and a cave-in.
RAPID and satisfactory progress"
was reported in a formal statement
given out by the mine manage

As the fight goes on the scene
grows more and more pathetic.

wives and relatives of the impris-
oned miners have crept quietly
from their homes. walked up past
church. There they offered prayers
asking Divine intercession.
Candles are kept burning on the
altar-glowing brighter perhaps,
than the hope which they typify.
Two women have haunted the
mine almost continually since Mon
day morning. They are Mrs. George
Steinman and Mrs. z. Pavlovich.
Hearts of the community went out
to them when il was learned they
were soon to become mothers.
When rescue work started 700
feet Of earth and rock lay between
the digging parties and the Areo-
naut shaft where the miners are
imprisoned
