CASH SITUATION IS DISCUSSED LIVELY INTEREST TAKEN IN BANK STATEMENT LARGE RAILWAY EARNINGS Renewed Pressure Against American Smelting — Good Gains for Lead ing Securities Record of the Day STOCK VALUES RISE AND DECLINE Tho stock market yesterday opened strong with Union Pacific, Amalga mated and Atchison making large fractional gains. Canadian Pacific advanced a point, while Norfolk & Western declined as much. Smelting, after opening % higher, sold freely and ran off 1%. Colorado Fue and Tennessee Coal lost a i»oint. Delaware & Hudson gained 3, and Northwestfrn and Union Pacific 1. By Aesoclat'ed Press. NEW YORK, Sept. 2.— Any detailed and extendsd recital of today's brief session of the stock market would be profitless. 1c had all the familiar anti-hoilday symp toms, superinduced by more than a week of liquidation and profit taking. Ope. rations were on a very light scale and professional character, the hesitating tone of the list reflecting the uncertainty pre vailing on the board. The money situation was aboul Iho only topic of discussion and the appearance of the bank statement was awaited with some Interest and no little apprehension. London reported a more cheerful tont. and sent over a higher range for Ameri cans, while Paris, which is said to be lending money here, quoted higher prices for rentes. Earlier prices here were generally high er, the strongest feature being Canadian Pacific, Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, Alchlson and Amalgamated Copper. Yesterday's pressure against American Smelting was renewed and weakness was uhown in Tennessee Coal and Colorado Fuel & Iron. A moderate buying move ment in some of the active issues met with free offerings of stocks and prices receded. The market came almost to a standstill on the Issuance of the bank statement, which showed a further decrease of re eerves. The loan decrease of about $7.* 700,000 was regarded as but a partial re flection of the week's liquidation, but the statement as a whole was received with satisfaction and helped to produce the firm closing. ' . : For the first seven months of the year the Pennsylvania railroad reported sub stantial net gains In earnings on lines di rectly operated east and west of Pitts burg, as weil as on leased lines. For July Illinois Central chows a heavy net de crease, duo doubtless to the yellow fever plague. A compilation of traffic returns liom all the leading roads for the half year shows the enormous Increase of ',50. 000.000 In gross over the satne p»r!ud last year. Naturally this Improvement Is less apparsnt In the net gain because of the continued Increase of operating expenses and cost of material and labor. - Total sales of bonds par value 11,245,000.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.— The fruit market declined this week for* several rea sons. Oranges were in liberal supply. Twenty carloads being received. Much of the fruit was diverted here on'account of our high prices. L; !Y;.. ' '■'■'■ Recent heavy offerings caused buyers to store fruit, so that the market Is pretty well supplied and this hurt the sale of -the best brands. These are still wanted, however, and will sell well. The quantity to come Is limited and will be carefully distributed over the remainder of the season so as not to oversupply the market. A few hundred barrels of Jamaica oranges were sold this week, the first of the season, and realized $6.00 a barrel. More will be sold next week. j. .*. - There's entirely too much grapefruit here for this time of the year, attracted by high prices. About four carloads were received this week. Prices are now very low, with no demand. . ''. -\ •' l • ' • , Two carloads of California lemons were sold this week. ' Prices were very high and will continue so sa long as the fruit is good. There are scarcely any foreign lemons now on the market. Only 3700 boxes were sold this week, ex-steamshlps Slcanla and Slcllia. The demand was- very active. Prices were 25c to 60c higher: Fancy 300s, $7.73; 800s, $6.36®6.75; choice 300s, $6.75; 3605, $6.10®6.35; fair to choice (off sizes), $5.60®6.75. Such prices are extra ordinary, but the lemon famine Is keen, only 41,000 boxes now. in sight, of which 26,000 are due to arrive next week. The supply is not enough to last until the new season opens and California lemons will continue high. As California has over 600 carloads still to come, ship pers should make large proflts before the new foreign season opens six weeks hence. California growers and shippers never had a better opportunity than now. Quotations as given above are according to grades of brands as they are reg istered in California in the citrus brand register. 100 Vir.-Caro.

We publish the following circular letter so that all our stockholders may be.ad vised of our success should they fall to receive copy;mailed; them: ■ .;..; V^f We Issue this circular: ml order to ex plain our silence during the past two years. Our. property was originally lo cated for tin, and. In the endeavor to work out the , metallurgy, we discovered that the ore was carrying other metals iof much moro value. Such being the fact, we turned our , attention towards the discovery of a process by which the valuable metals could j be. saved, j Our general manager, J. A. Comer, has dur ing the past two years devoted his whole time to the discovery of a process where by these rare metals could be extracted. It was an undertaking of great magni tude, as It meant a discovery which had never been accomplished in this country, or perhaps by the chemists of the Old World. By this process, Mr. Comer has been enabled to successfully, extract gold, platinum, osmium, lrldlum and many other vn!.>iole metals. In order to accomplish these results, the company was obliged to Install an electric furnace, and on August 24 the first run was made, which consisted of eight pounds of platinum, osmium and iridlum In metaile form, which are worth In the market $20 'an ounce. Mr. Comer has much more now ready for smelting. Our mining equipments are all in per fect shape, but It Is necessary now, in order to prouuee larger results than can be accomplished In our present laboratory, to build a refinery so that we can keep our stamp mill running night and day, which we cannot do now, not more than a fifth of the time with our present equipment. In order to accomplish this, and our desire to benefit our stockholders, we have decided to offer a block of stock at its face value, $1.00 per share, giving our stockholders first opportunity to buy, as' when sufficient stock has been sold to meet this' necessity there will be no more stock offered at any price. It Is. only. a question. of a short time when this stock will advance much be ybnu its face value. -;•-■ V-'V . ■ Stockholders will take notice that not less than twenty-five shares will be is sued them and not less than 100 shares to non-holders and it Is expected that all who wish to subscribe will do so with in thirty days from date of receiving this notice.
