STOCK MARKET OPERATIONS.
• In th« five hours of business In yesterday's
market transactions were heavy In volume on
a movement of values which ended the day at
net gains in the greater number of active Issues.
The high grade shares were in demand, and
the scarce supply of Great Northern and North
ern Pacific was responsible for marked improve
ment in these stocks, while the Influence on the
rest of the list of the rise in the high grade
securities was marked. In American Smelting.
Colorado Fuel, 'distillers* Securities and Read
ing. In which recently there has been specula
tive buying for both accounts, heaviness due
to realizing" was reported, but the declines were
not important, while offerings were well taken.
There was a good distribution of business
throughout the list, with the heaviest opera
tions in th» metal shares, Atchison, the Hill
stocks. Pennsylvania. Reading. Southern : Paci
fic. Union Pacific and the local traction issues,
improvement in the last named being helped by
the reports of earnings for the last quarter.
A cut in Its dividend rate by the Brooklyn
Union Gas Company was without effect on
speculation. Inasmuch as this action had been
expected, following the recent cut by the Con
solidated Company. Sentiment was favorably
affected by the government's report on winter
wheat, showing a percentage on May 1 of 91
as compared with I>2 a year ago, indicating a
yield above the normal.
The easier tendency in the money market has
been effective in bringing about stronger rates
for foreign exchange, and, as a consequence,
quotations for the latter are now well above the
point at which gold may be Imported at a profit.
It is generally believed that in view of the de
velopments in monetary conditions in the last
few days no further efforts will be made to
bring In gold from Europe, and, of course, this
may b° taken as a sign that the position of
affairs at this centre has undergone a change
which no longer makes shipments of the pre
cious metal to the United States necessary.
Time money has moved to a slightly lower
level, while call funds may now be obtained at
figures which impose no great burden on bor
rowers. It is impossible at the moment, how
ever, to predict an extremely easy money mar
ket In the near future, owing to the uncertainty
over the extent of the demands for capital which
will develop with the active opening of busi
ness and rebuilding in San Francisco. So far
in the current week the local b-inks have gained
in their operations with the Sub-Treasury more
than $1,000,006. and it is not unlikely that the
< louring House statement to-morrow will show
an Increase both In cash and reserve holdings,
especially as in the statement of a week ago the
known increase was not reflected in the bank
return, this being due to the inconsistencies of
the average system which the Clearing House
employs in compiling weekly statements. The
Bank of England, at ita regular weekly meeting
yesterday, made no change in its minimum rate
of discount, but open market quotations for
money in London and on the Continent exhibited
a firmer tone.
As the majority of the best informed Wall
Street Interests express great confidence in the
future of the stock market, ordinary commission
houses are sending out bullish advices to thrir
customers, the result of which is a mnre active
demand for securities for public account Stock
market values have enjoyed marked improve
ment from the low flgurrs recorded last week
and apparently vigorous efforts are being made
to establish all issues at a higher ranse espe
cially in the case of securities which nr.> now
selling at a level which encourages investment
buying. In some quarters of the Street it is
thought that the recovery from the recent low
figures has been too rapid, and that a reaction
will develop before a sustained upward move
ment begins. Substantial interests have been
buying St. Paul, Union Pacific, Canadian Pn'i
flc. New York Central. Chesapeake & Ohio
Pennsylvania and Pacific Coast stocks, and tiie
character of buying in these shares suggests the
presence in the market of people who w.-re Im
portant factors in the upward movement which
practically culminated last January. The fact
that these operators are again in the market
ought to Inspire great caution on the part of
people who favor the short side of speculation

CHESAPEAKE * OHIO DIVIDEND —A move
ment Is under way on the part of certain stock
holders of the Chesapeake * Ohio to induce the
directors of the company to increase the dividend
rate, the basis of the demand being the large in
crease in the earnings of the company and Its ex
cellent prospects for further »alns In the balance of
the year. Some of the points made by the stock
holders follow:
From June 3k 1839. to February 28, 1906. the net
income of the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad, for the
period, applicable to dividends was J14,41a.0f10 out
of which there has been paid to the stockholders
in dividends $4/*6.000. an amount equal to only 28
per c?nt of the total applicable to dividends, leaving
Sio 320 i*Y> or 72 per cent, which has been put back
Into the property. In the same period, the
Norfolk A Western Railway Company has paid to
Its stockholders 51 per cent of the net Income ap
plicable to dividends, putting 49 per cent back Into
the property. The Baltimore A Ohio Railroad Com
pany has paid to its stockholders M per cent of the
net income applicable to dividends, putting 46 per
cent back into the property, this road having com*
from the hands of receivers only on July 1. 1»».
The Southern Railway Company ha« paid to its
stockholders 65 per cent of th*» net Income ap
plicable to dividends, putting 35 per cent back Into
the property. Th<» Louisville * Nashville Railroad
Company has paid to its stockholders 63 per cent
of the net income applicable to dividends, putting;
47 per cent back into the property. Should the
current rate of earnings of the CTiesapeake ft Ohio
Railroad as shown herein, continue to the end of
this fiscal year, of which there appears to be rea
sonable assurance, the present rate of dividend of
1 per cent a year would represent only 13 per cent
of the net Income applicable to dividends.
CORN PRODUCTS REFINING— The statement
of tlip Corn Products Refining Company for the
current fiscal year will reflect the change in the
management of the corporation. It is expected
that the surplus, after deducting the 7 per cent to
which the preferred stock is entitled, will be equiv
alent to 4 or 5 per cent on the common stock.
The directors meet next month to consider the
payment of dividends on the preferred. The be
lief prevails that dividends will not be started at
that time. It Is the Intention of the new manage
ment to place the company In first class condition
before beginning prefened dividends. With this
object in view, present earnings will be used for
extensions, improvements, etc.
TIN PLATE.— It Is now figured that the cost of
material alone in a box of tin plate of 100 pounds
is in the neighborhood of $2 25, not lncludtoig the
cost of production. Tin plate Is quoted at $3 79 a
box. I'nder these conditions an advance In the
price of tin plate is expected. Many tin plate miils
have been forced to close on account of the
scarcity of tin bars. Pig tin is now selling at the
highest l»>vel ever recorded.
MICHIGAN STATE TELEPHONE REPORT —
The annual report of the Michigan State Telephone
Company shows gross earnings of $2,293,652 and
net 'earnings of $573.32 H. After the payment of In
terest and dividends there was a balance of $259.
459. whl^h. with the surplus of the preceding year.
made a total surplus of $392.! 15. In the year divi
dends to the> amount of 5137.01W were paid on the
preferred stock.

to stockholders of record at the close of business
on June 28.
PACIFIC COAST.-The report that as a result of
th* San Francisco earthquake and fire the Pa
cific Coast Company had been compelled to lay off
some of its steamers which go from that port M
Seattle and San Diego !s denied by officers of the
company. As a matter of fact, the company has
increased its coastwise service, and is now running
special excursion steamers from Seattle to San
Francisco. Certain stock market traders, short of
the company's stock, are putting out unfounded ad
verse reports regarding the business of the con
cern, but it is a noteworthy fact that buying con
tinues for the account of several large railway
Interests which evidently are anxious to seeur«
control of the property, particularly on account
of its valuable real estate holdings In Seattle.
