Listed on Local Exchange

RAYMOND S. HARRIS
It developed at the hearing of the
Northern Electric railway company's
application for permission to issue
$8,000,000 of bonds yesterday that the
line was showing some rather remark
able gains in earnings for the first
three month* of this fiscal year, as
, ompared ■ with the corresponding
ihree months of last year. July, 1912.
allows an Increase over July, 1911. of
25.3 per cent gross, and 52 per cent
net. August shows a gain over
August of last year of 30.1 per cent
gross and .".".."J per cent net. Septem
ber shows a ga'ti of 21.7 per cent
gross and 49 per net. Thus the
months of July. August and Septem
ber of this year taken together show
an Increase over the three months of
last ><ar of HJ per cent in net.
i "onmiissioners Eshieman, Thelen
and Edgerton, who heard the appli
catlon, declared at the outset of the
hearing that tiiev were far from clear
as to just how iarge a bond issue the
company desired, and to what uses the
bonds were to be applied. T. T, C.
Gregory, who presented the case of the
applicant, undertook to explain the
issues and after a long discussion it
tried that $5,500,000 of the bonds
were to be Issued to provide funds for
the construction oi the Vallejo and
Northern continuation of the Northern
Electric system, with the brandies to
VacavlHe and Sulsun. The proceeds of
the balance. $2,500,060 of bonds, will
retire certain notes now outstanding.
for which bonds are pledged as col
lateral.
.Ml the 55.000,000 of bonds will be
•-sued in francs or pounds sterling,
and. according to the statements yes
terday, $S0 will be obtained for the
$0,500,000 issue, and $86 for the bal
ance.
A. D. Schindler. chief engineer and
manager of the road, testified
that the Vallejo & Northern line, with
the two short branches mentioned, will
cost H.-46.748, according to estimate.
submitted estimates of
tie earnings expected of tbe new line
and declared that it would tan a re
markably rich country. True, it would
have th-- competition of a steam line.
but the Northern Electric railway it
s. !f at the present time, with two com
peting steam lines, carries S3 per cent
of the local passenger travel r«nd 70
per cent of the local freight trad In
cluding the freight destined f-* San
Francisco. This is transferred ■*■». Sac
ramento to steamers.
At present the company lias J1.582.910
payable, of Which it is designed
t.. refund $2,375,000.
At the conclusion of the hearing the
request was taken under advisement,
but it was stipulated that a supple
mental application would be Tiled by
the company, in which a complete
statement of the bonds askeu to be
issued would be made.

MINING STOCKS~~~t
The nc.rib etvl Comstocks were aroused from
their le'hargy late yesterday by the receipt of ■
advices from Virginia City telling of the finding
of a new stringer of quarts in Sierra Nevada
on the 2900 level, and as a consequence the
stocks of that group were more active and firmer
than for a long time past. The news created
somewhat of a sensation and there was a small
sir.Pd boom in the stocks that carried prices
well above the low figures quoted at the opening
session of the Rush street board. Sierra Nevada
led the upward movement. Jumping from 17c
to 30c. with large trades recorded at the high
figure in the final hour of trading. Consolidated
Virginia recovered all of the ground lost on the
preceding day and closed strong at 40c. while
T'nion had a sharp rise to 50c during the late
informal trading. Ophir was liberally purchased
ami advanced with the others, but It failed to
,-Utaiu the high level reached on the preceding
day. Mexican opeixwl steadier than any of tbe
other Comstoeks in the morning, there being no
stock obtainable for less than $2.50, and in the
afternoon It had a sale at $2.75. ,
Aside from the late activity In the north end
Comstock*. the market was a dull and unlnter
esting affair, with early dealings in the shares
of vII groups small. The dullness on the open
ing call had a depressing ftfvet on the entire
list, and several of tbe leading southern Nevada
issues Fold down. North Star receded to 37c and
West End sagged to $1.75. a decline, of five
points on the day. Tonopah Merger wis offered
at $1.10 and Halifax *-«• for sale at $2. but
there were no buyers at those prices. Mizpah,
„..c R.itler and Rescue were all slightly lower.
Among the Goldfields Consolidated was un
changed, with several sales recorded at $2.42V,fti!
2.45, Florence dropprd to 77c. while smalt re
cessions occurred In Merger Mines and Jumbo
Extension.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 16, 1912.
Early Gains in New York Stock
Market Followed by Setback
NETS" YORK, Oct. 15.—Taking Its cue from abroad, where all ex
changes were stronger as a result of the support tendered by substantial
Interests, the stock market here opened active and almost buoyant. Gains
of one or two points were numeroufi In the first hour. In the final hour
a selling movement of moderate proportions wiped out the greater part
of the early gains and the market cloaed with an Irregular undertone.
The setback coincided with advices from Chicago that the wound suffered
by Colonel Roosevelt waa a serious One.
The strength of the coppers was directly traceable to the sharp re
bound In these metals abroad and to the belief that the directors of the
Amalgamated company, at their meeting later this week, will advance the
present rate of dividend.
Money waa more abundant in ..this market today, but the tone held
firm, with a slight advance in 90 day rates.
Bonds were firm, but without special feature. Total sale?, par value,
$2,050,000.
United States government bonds were unchanged.
NEW YORK, Oct. 15.— E. F. Hutton & Co.'s wire says: "The market
today gave signs of resuming Its advance. (Strength in copper stocks was
the most noticeable feature, but the good buying of Reading continued,
and in Steel the demand was sufficient to absorb all offerings. On the
whole, the market seemed to possess underlying strength to a large de_
gree. There was a fair demand for stocks in the loan crowd. All the
traders said the selling of Bteel was of good quality, but they paid no at
tention to the buying, yet as the tendency of the price was to advance,
the buying must have been better than the selling. Bethlehem Steel was
a strong feature, crossing 50 and showing as much strength above as
below that figure. Some observers said there was a very interesting light
in Reading, but that the bulls apparently had the best of it. It was quite
generally expected that the Bank of England would increase its rat" to
6 per cent on Thursday. Such a development would probably be found to
have been discounted. The easier tendency of money at this renter *fas
indicated by a renewal of the rate of 4% per cent for call loans. Amal
gamated Copper was well bought on expectation of 6 per cent dividend
rate at Thursday's meeting, as was Reading on segregation talk. Corn
Products was also well bought on the cheapness of corn. Considering the
heavy foreign selling recently the stock market, to our view, has acted
very'well and we believe that stocks held through any further temporary
irregularlty will show good profits later."

Boston Stocks
BOSTON. Oct. 15.— E. F. Hutton ft Co.'s
wire says:" "Boston, reflecting the belter tone
Of the New York opening, was generally strong
and active, led by Rutte and Superior, which
was bought In good volume and advanced above
48. North Untte was a good performer at the
opening, but soon became dull. East Btitte was
brought to prominence again today, reaching
near its recent bigh figures. Granhy made a
good start for its expected higher prices again
today. This stock should go well Nibove 75
later on. The copper shares have been materially
improved and "c look for fast trading and better
prices soon. Buy now.
"Sales of electro at 17%e were made today.
T'nlted Metals Selling company has withdrawn
temporarily from the foreign market and in
conjunction with Phelps Dodge and American
Smelting company quotes 17% c for the metal
here. One sale of 50.000 pounds of castings at
17% c was made this morning. Smaller dealers
are asking little less than 17% c. but big lots
can not be obtained under that figure."

SAN FRANCISCO STOCK AND BOND EXCHANGE
m ■ ■ ■ •**
Only one Great. Western Power bond sold on the Stock and Bond exchange
yesterday, though many were offered. The price at which the transaction was
made was $88.75. a decline of an eighth from the figure at which the bonds have
ruled for a long period A sale of three of the bonds at $88.75 also was reporteu
among the morning street sales. Such a sielling campaign has been started
that apparently it was decided yesterday by those behind the issue that they
would not support it until the flurry has blown over. Rumors of troubles in tne
company's organization have been circulated for some time prior to the Inau
guration of the selling movement, and now that the bear raid is being made new
rumors are being put out. ..
Asociated Oil stock was off an eighth in the morning session, but in the
afternoon went back to $14 50. Only one sale was made at each session, how
ever.
Considerable comment is being directed at the strength displayed by United
Railroads ss. which yesterday brought $65.50. Their progress lately has been
constantly upward.
Northern California Power stock showed an upward tendency, selling at
$40.37%, which is an eighth over Monday's price, though five-eighths under the
high price for the stock registered in the recent advance.

Future Grain and Provision*
CHICAGO, Oct. 15, -Diminishing concern re

today. The opening was %f to I'ifa-V off.
December started at 93%4i94%c. a " loss of

pork. $11.12-, for lard, and 510.37 V. for ribs.
CHICAGO, Oct. 15.— E. F. Hutton'ft Go's win
says:
"Wheat -Less warlike early news and de
cided weakness in all of the European mar
kets made a lower wheat market here to
day. Belated longs unloaded and some of the
short sellers regained sufficient courage to
do a little more selling. Thereafter the mar
ket was slow and uninteresting at tbe lower
level, but tbere was nothing like demoraliza
tion appearing and Instead there was every in
dication that some of yesterday's largest sellers
were reinstating. The decline shut off export
business, foreign markets having declined first
and farthest. Nevertheless there was a sus
picion of export business In Canadian and
American spring wheat at the reduced levels.
although Winnipeg told of foreign selling of
futures there. Cash wheat was relatively easy
today. Sales 123.000 bushels.
Corn—Ehie weather In all directions, the
easiness in wheat, less war news and realiz
ing by longs made an easy corn market moat
of the day. Foreign markets were easier and
(Hstern cash demand slim. Primary receipts
showed a sharp falling off. The selling by
local traders and longs was overdone early, and
there was a recovery later on covering by
shorts and reinstating by longs. Cash corn was
waafc here, and at outside markets. Some of
yesterday's heavy sellers of corn have bought
persistently today, reinstating long. The clos
ing strength in wheat helped the corn. Cash
sales 2W.000 bushels.
••oats —Have followed the other grains
weakening early and rallvtng later. Export
business very poor most of the day but im
proved some after the market began to dis
play strength. Trade was not of large pro
portions speculatively or otherwise. Shipping
i,ales finally footed 300.000 bushels.
"Provisions—Values covered a fairlr wide
range, and changes were frequent and Irregular
although the volume of business was of only
moderate proportions. Tbere was rather poor
early support, although the start was a little
higher on covering by local shorts."
