New York
Stock Market
Now Tork, Maroh 8.?Uncertainty as
to the situation In Mexico, declaration
of a dividend on New York Central at
a rate lower than the previous? quar?
ters and copper producers' report all
served to unsettle stocks and caused
declines. The market showed no ner?
vousness, however, and there was no
apparent pressure to liquidate stocks
seeming to drift downward chiefly
through inertia ami lack of incentive
to bullish operations. The only relief
from the monotony of an unusually
dull day was offered by a period of
activity following the announcement
that the New York Central dividend
for the quarter would be at the rate
of tlve per cent, instead of the pre
v inns t; per cent, rat e.
The market, which had been heavy
from the opening, sold off on the news
although some railroad stocks lost
more decline than did New York Cen?
tra! itself.
Lohigh Valley dropped 2 pe-r cent.,
and most of the other active railroad
issues a point or more. Then caine a
rally, followed by further weakness,
and at the . d of" the day the list was
ii? ? t !" , i from the low point. The ef
fe,-t of the day's unfavorable news was
offset by the fuel that it bad hern
anticipated largely in the decline of
the stocks most affected.
i' nkers liavinc; interest in Mexico
were in conference to day with repre?
sentatives of that republic, and with
one accord they declared that the most
amiable relations exists between Wash?
ington and the City of Mexico. Shares
of the National Railways of Mexico
were weak
The fertilizer shares wore almost the
large-; |os< rs of any. and the decline In
tho.se issues war; explained as being
due to the dissolution of a pool which
has been active in that group for some
time Rear traders attacked the Could i
stocks when it was reported that an- ?
other offer of tho presidency of Mis- !
souri Pacific had been ' declined, and
forced some substantial recessions in
Missouri Pacific and In W ab ash pre- I
furred. Report for January of two]
large Industrial corporations?the
American Sugar and the American To?
bacco Company?presented striking
contrasts. The profits from operations
of the sugar company were reduced by
more than half. An indication of the
tobacco company's prosperity may be
found In the stat ...ent that the profit
and los* surplus at the end of the year
was $61,119.1111 as compared with $42,.
499,100 at the end of the previous year.
The bond market was irregular. Total

whose leases ran beyond Aj>rll 1 were
unwilling to leave, and threatened to
cause a good deal of delay. Satisfac?
tory arrangements have been mado,
however, with all of them, and there
will be no trouble. The Chamber of
Commerce will be the last to move,
and will take quarters on the third
Moor of the Mutual Building. Board j
meetings will be held in the board
room of the Business Men's Club and
the larger meetings, such as smokers,
are to be held in the .Jefferson Hotel
auditorium.
A meeting of the building commit?
tee of the First National Bank Build?
ing Corporation will be held next week,
when an architect probably will be
selected and other arrangements for
the new building made. It Is the pur?
pose, of the building corporation to!
begin tearing down the old building
as soon as possible, so ns to have the
work of construction well under way
before the cold weather of next fall, j
Roughly, it is estimated that the new I
structure will be completed within j
eighteen months.

Take, for example, a successful man who has built
up a great business. Possibly he has incorporated it,
but owns practically all the stock. Suppose he has
some friend, perhaps a son, who is familiar with the
business. Instead of making the friend or son sole
executor of his will, would it not be the wise thing
to do to name a strong Trust Company Co-executor
with the other party?
There are some good reasons for an affirmative
answer, and we can point them out to any one inter?
ested.
