standard and leading shares, l'or that
matter, real weakness eras eondned to
one Ihslio, Amilian boot s ;;:ar i "in
Minn stock, which was subjected to fur?

from the si Ot k i: alders, to whom 1' I a'

the stock wuit'h came as aa entile sur?

larger and bet lei stocks. A ",ood sl.ar.

tiiat the bssb- eleaeoata of tlie situa?
tion was continually un'iei lining Im?
provement, tims mare rhoerfel feel?
ing was hskpsd by several agesUeal
railroad statements prominent among
these being of the Chicago Malwaukee
and St. Haul, that recorded a ;;r<>ss in
i rease of |4.l9?.eae in five months, or
which almost It.ieg.ee* was saved from
tho net. l'or the math of Decemoer
the Missouri Pacific reported a gross
liK-rense of $:.7t
There was anothe- sharp advance
? luring th.- day in sterling ext haaatO
The ii-e.k atateeaent was vary sei eh
better Than had bass looked f. r. and
the loans showed the large business.
X large Increase was shown in deposits,
but the actual figures of the surplus
reset te indicated large cash holdings
of the clearing h .use Increased almost
tit,SOS.000. While the stock market
of the w.-ek was sensitiv, as it well
might have been, due to the American
lleet Sm.nr incident, an undertone of
great- i -on:..!- im ? was manifested, and
th.- general lendeacy of pre es was <JP
elesadly upward. Money b.-cam? eas?
ier everywhere, and though call rates
in our mark.-t appraarh nominal lev
els. the most Botahle departmetst was
really the redtSCtlea in the time rates.
In Kngland BaOBey sank aver 1 per
rent h. low th- level of the Hank of
England's rate, which is a fair indi?
cation, per ha pa, thai the ". per cent
bank rite at present ruling is not
likely to f..- long ma ntalm I. The
general truth about the entire finan
? tal situation is that money is re
Brnlag in a MS ?1 to the xr.-at -entres.
la to tie- c!..se of business hours
to-.lav there wan no further n ws of
the peace conf?-ri-tice in I?r.don than
that printed in the morning newspa?
pers, but the tenor of all advi. ea was
thai an early atsi aatisfactoty c-jn
dtielon of th. negot'ations was to be
lo..k.<! for
When the matter Is finally disposed
of. C money that has been hoarded
in K- -' pe In fear of a general war
will ui'.v more "come out." and this
should accomplish a great change in
financial affairs o\-e:- there.
I;. ;<>rts from the mercantile and in?
dustrial b-.islr.ess continue extremely
encouraging. As regards the mnie
diate future of the stock mark-t. much
dep-nds uP'-n the de rial SS of the Su?

so-called adverse decision In the cases

Although It occurred to very few
holders of tha Harrises a stacks, ih-f?
was a chanee that Pal as Pacific Bitgbt
be restrained from receiving the
per cent dividend, payable January '-'
on Svuthern Pa-if.e stock. l.'nlon's
ownership of Southern Pacific stock
had beer, adjudged Illegal, and In the
? ase of at least o-e of the other dis?
solved trusts, receipt of dividends from
subsidiary companies was at once en?
joined.
I'nion Pacific off!-ers were -r.' ros
itlve of their right to receive this lat?
est Sondern PBCtao dividend, end it
was only alter a cons station with
Attorney-Oneral Wiekershat.i that
they took into ti.e treasury the |I.f.t)".
'. -aid in account on dividend of
*i:?."00.0eO Southern Pacific sto. k
b. !.i by I'nion. As the ra?e now stands.
I'nion can continue to receive divi?
dends on its Southern Pacific stock
until three months after the filing of
the mandamus of the Supreme <"..irt
T!;e mandamus has not yet been nied
and cannot be until the Supreme CO Mi
passes on Attr.rney-t.eneral V.'i.ker

that time have received no d.vidends

principal argument against the stock

Which Road Will You Travel in 1913?
The high mat! of "FLEETING PLEASURE,'1 spending as jrou go, frith no thought
for Ihe future or the narrow pathway of "THRIFT," which leads you to future suc?
cess and prosperity
It's the same choice that eoun'less numbers ha\e made before those that fol?
lowed the inviting hire of "Meeting Pleasure" are now penniless and filled with regret
at their wasted opportunities, while those that wisely chose to foilow the pathway
of Thrift are tasting the fruits of well-merited affluence.
The New Year is Before You?Now is the Time to Choose
Forsake the glittering show and empty pleasures of Fleeting Pleasure and turn
your steps into the pathway of Thrift by opening an account in
Richmond's Oldest and Most
Conservative Bank
where it will earn 3 per cent interest. Form the habit of systematic saving deposit
at least a part of your income at regular intervals here, w here it w ill be protected from
loss by fire or burglary, and result in your attainment of success and prosperity.
