INTEREST CENTERS IX FEW ISSUES Ui:.t:itAL LIST STILL DILL.

Wall-Street Hunker Say It Is Hard to Employ Funds to AdvnntaKe "When Unten Arc at Present Level. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. NEW YORK. April 3. The securities market continues to be an affair of specialties. Interest till centers In Union Iactfic. St. Paul and the other stocks connected with the Northern Securities Company, and a few of the other standard issues. There is little change In the outlook of the general market from the conditions which confronted the financial district at the close of last week. Perhaps it may seem an old stcry to some that the Northern Securities case still dominates th market, but this is the blasest thing In the market at present, and its consideration continues the moat Interesting and important matter to the financial district. The upward movement, which began when the Supreme Court handed down its decision in the merger case, seems to be over, and from the action of the market the paat two weeks it looks a3 If speculation win again be at a pretty low ebb after the dissolution of the Northern Securities Ccmpany U finally settled. The claim of the Northern Securities interests that Union Pacific Is not to be looked upon as an original depositor of Northern Pacific stock la exchange for Northern Securities, is based upon the fact that, according to Mr. E. II. Harriman's testimony, printed elsewhere, the Union Pacific interests sold their Northern Iaclnc boldlMs of common and preferred stock to J. P. Morgan & Co. for a certain sum in cash, generally understood to be I3.GOO.0, or thereabouts, ard about eighty-two and a half millions of Northern Securities stock. This sale of Northern Pacific by the Union Pacific, It is full, places Union Pacific in the same category as that of people who bought Northern Securities tuck in the market after it was issued, and removes them from a position where the claim might be made that Union Pacinc had deposited ao much Northern Paclflc with Northern SecurlUes. teceiving o much Northern Securities therefor. It is understood that Union Pacific lhterests do not -regard the amount of the Northern l'aciflc stock that tney are to receive in exchange tor their Northern Securities as a vital consideration. Doubtless tney would, perhaps, prefer to ' receive all Northern Pacinc, but, as we get it, they art satlstioj to tafce the propositions otxtred. If this method of liquidating the Northern Securities is held to be it-gal. Union Pacific counsel advised Mr. Ifarriruau that it mlgnt not be legal, and therefore it weit- better that he should not officially and on behalf of Union Paclrtc consent to the proposal, Mr. Harrlman did not vote upon the matter at all. acting on counsel's auvlce. It seems practically certain that the courts will be called upon to deal with tne matter, so that it can be reopened in tiie future. The unexplained feature In the situation Is the identity of the recent buyers of Union Paclttc stock. Northern Securities people stoutly aver that thty have bought no Union Pacific. Union Pacific people do not know who has bought the Mock. In tome quartern the buying is credited to certain interests connected with the Standard Oil Company and the National City Bank; the purposes of the buyers are in doubt. At least oute of the stock purchased by them is suupoied to have come from interests pretty closely connected with tnion racinc "With call money under 2 per cent, it is hard work to employ our funds to advantage." said the president of a prominent Wall-street bank lng hous yesterday. 'The lot of a banker ia not an easy one Just now." lie referred especially to the difficulty of loan' Ing out deposits of trust. companies and out-of Mwn banks for which banks pay 2 per cent, in tertst. Should rates for call money advance about 2 per cent., it is probable that there would be. a sudden fall In bank deposits caused by withdrawals by trust companies which would then be able to employ their money mere profit ably In loans than to keep It In the banks. This case of money, while not relished by the banket s. is xavorable to speculation, and the connection Between low rates of Interest asd Increased stock market activity and strength Is apparent. It has been a street maxim that a creC.'t capacity of the clearing house banks of at least ilOG.Ouu.cwö is a nt-cessary preliminary to . bull market. That is what exists now. This, however, is a rule that has had many exceDtlotr. There have been times when theurplus reserves in tne Danas nave Deen immense without Inducing any speculative; activity. On the other hand there have been notable bull markets at times when the reserves of the banks have been very moderate and rates for loans have ruled nigh. On Feb. 3, 183-1. when the banks' percentage of reserve to u-o3n. .v, me surplus reserve amounting to U11,0'0.000, the average price of railroad stocks was 56.23. A year later the avenge price was 4.zo, meanwnile the percentare of reserve had declined to -23.01. On Aug. 8, 1&, when the average price was as low as 41.82 me percentage oi rnerve was j.ai. A year later when the average had advanced to 60.79 there was a surplus .reserve of more than las.(KW.00O. On July 30. 1300, when the average was down to "5.75, the percentage of reserve was 210S. while on Nov. CO. VXQ, when the price average was the percentage of reserve , was 20.43.

LOADED CAR 3IOVKMCXT OF LOCAL LINES SELD03I SO LIGHT.

Comment Over Cüansea to Become Effective April I on Hock Inland iieneral and Personal Xote. . Very seldom does freight trafllc reach as low an ebb as it did with Indianapolis lines in the week ending April 2. But one road, the Panhandle, reported more loaded cars than in the corresponding week of 1303. The decrease, as compared with the corresponding week last year, was 6.74S loaded cars. The Indianapolis & Vincennes did not move a loaded car between the 25th of March and April 2 on account of high waters. During the period named nine of the fifteen Indianapolis lines suffered more or less in their business, tho t., II. & D., the Monon, the J., M. & I. and the. 13ig Four's St. Louis division not coming out of the troubles so readily as did tho other roads. "Weather conditions were such nearly all the week that shippers could not forward their goods to destination, but on Saturday officials of most of the roads were pf opinion that the worst has passed and that business the coming week will be exceedingly heavy, as there is a large tonnage of freight standing on sidetracks awaiting movement, and the depots are crowded with freight to be shipped. The oldest freight officials do not remember a time when all Indianapolis lines were so crippled in the movement of their business as for the past ten days, but all expect to have local freights moving to-day. Through business began to move on Saturday night, and on Sunday there was a large movement of through business over lines which had over come the high water troubles. The following table shows the number of cars received and forwarded at Indianapolis In the week ended April 2 and in corresponding weeks of 1D03 and l'J02: Name of Road.

WlncliellS) Promotion. The announcement of the important official changes in the Rock Island organization has created a sensation in railroad circles, the more so from the fact that so many Pennsylvania officials have recently accepted important official positions on that road. The position pf L. F. Loree, who is president of the P.ock Island holding company, is in no way affected by these changes, as he represents the financial interests which control that property, but the selection of B. L. Winchell as president in place of W. B. Leeds, resigned, was rather unexpected, although it is claimed that those acquainted with existing conditions had looked for such a change. The promotion of Mr. Winchell had been rapid. Ho began his railroad career in 1SS3 at a clerk in the office of the superintendent of machinery of the Hannibal & St. Joseph Railroad. Later he went into the auditor's office of that road, and in 1SS7 was appointed chief clerk in the general freight and ticket office of the Atchison & Nebraska Railroad, becoming the next year an assistant general passenger aß'ent. After holding that position till ls95. he was appointed general passenger agent on the Union Pacific. Denver & Gulf Railroad. Three year later he was appointed general passenger agent of the St. Louis & San Francisco. Further promotions came fast. Soon after he was elected vice president and fraffic manager of the Colorado & Southern. In 1900 he became president and general manager of the Kansas City, Ft. Scott & Memphis, and held that position until the road was absorbed by the 'Frisco system, of which he was made general manager. Shortly after the latter company was acquired by the Bock. Island. Mr. Winchell went to Chicago, was placed in charge of the entire Rock Island system, and is now elected to the presidency. With A. J. Davidson, who becomes chief of the 'Frisco and who will make his headquarters at St. Louis as g-eneral superintendent of the system, the road commences a new career. Mr. Davidson is a comparatively young man to assume the duties of such a responsible position, but is said to be well qualified for the place. Aside from the accepted resignation of C. II. Warren as first vice president, no particular signifi cance is attached to the changes. Neither will they have any bearing on the recent appointment or Pennsylvania officials to po sitlcns on that system. Personal, Local and General Note. James R.

The report published last week that, the Chicago Great Western had bought or was about to buy the Green Ray At western road is absolutely denied at the Great Western offices in New York. The Pennsylvania has authorized the building of four hospitals at division terminals, to be equipped with beds, instruments and supplies for immediate use and ready for service day and night. The Raltimore & Ohio Southwestern has received two of the ten Atlantic type of locomotives recently ordered. The tenders of these engines carry 7.W0 gallons oi water and twelve tons of coal. As the annual meetings of the "Western New York & Pennsylvania and of the Allegheny Valley are to be held to-day it is surmised that steps are to be taken at this meeting to consolidate tho two com panies. It was announced yesterday that the Pennsylvania had placed an order for 2.123 cars ror the shipping or coal, dividing ine order between the American Car and Foun dry Company and the Standard Steel Car Company. xcal railroad men on Saturday received notice that the Detroit & Cleveland Navigation Company would start its boats across the lake on April 5. Nearly all the other lake companies have made similar announcements. E. Ronsell. who succeeds W. F. Holton as a representative of the Harriman line in this territory. Is expected in the city to:day to form acquaintance with the passenger officials of the line of which he is the official representative. The two oldest employes of the Pennsyl vania lines west William Kroeger, fore man of blacksmith shops, and O. E. Rradday, foreman of brass foundry will, be re tired this month on a pension. Roth have been in service on the Pennsylvania fifty years. The Pennsylvania Company has equipped its Richmond division with ciew vestibule cars, models of beauty and convenience, which will be appreciated by the patrons of that division, who have felt that they were somewhat slighted in the character of equipment. St. Louis travel has already set in heavily and the Pennsylvania Company will take off the parlor smoking cars run on Trains 20 and 21 and substitute regular passenger coaches, as the smoking parlor cars carry but thirty people and the coaches seat from sixty-five to seventy. The Rig 'Four has renewed its fight against the new Chicago, Cincinnati & Louisville Railway Company. The litigation involves the right of the new line to cross certain tracks of the Rig Four at a grade at Cincinnati, O. Some months ago it was believed that the matter had been amicably adjusted. The Pullman cars to be built hereafter, Owing to the sanitary ideas recently adopted, will little resemble the ornate cars built within the last few years. The new standard will be severely plain and will be devoid of all scroll and grill work. The upholstering will be reduced materially and all the angles possible taken from the cars. Preparations are about completed for the opening of the St. Iuls & San Francisco's new line between Memphis, Tenn., and St. Louis. It is expected that regular freight and passenger trains will be In operation and running on regular schedule before the close of the month, furnishing a fast, rect through service from Memphis to Louis. The new road from Kansas City to diSt. St. Louis, to be used jointly by the Chicago & Alton and the Chicago, JJurlington & Quincy is about ready for train service. The distance over the new track between Kansas City and St. Louis is 2S1 miles, while the route of the Chicago, Rurlington & Quincy now used is 346 miles and that of the Chicago & Alton 323 miles. Travel on the Ruffalo division of the Pennsylvania has so increased that the company is placing more powerful locomotives on that division. It was not long ago that the Western New York & Pennsylvania served the section of country now cared for by the Pennsylvania, and there was little thought then of Riant locomotives being soon required to haul the passenger trains. It is announced at the offices of the St. Louis & Southwestern Railroad Company that .at the close of business on April 6 the Cotton Reit would withdraw from all Memphis, Tenn.. business, both freight and passenger. This action is the result, it is said, of a controversy regarding freight rates between the Cotton Reit, the St. Louis & Iron Mountain and the Memphis Freight Rureau. ' It Is stated that Horace D. Rurke, former president of the Union Pacirlc, has other and larger engagements than that with the Russian government in connection with the operation of the Siberian railroad, it having just transpired that Mr. Rurke, when he sailed for the East a few weeks ago, carried with him President Roosevelt's promise of a commission as superintendent of a system of government railways to be built irt the Philippines. At the meeting of the -Vanderbilt people held in New York on Friday and Saturday it was decided, it is stated, to make no change in the New York. Roston and Chicago service, but in the service between New York and St. Louis two new trains will be put on to take care of all the needs of the travel In that territory. One will be a morning and another an evening train, and wlli run through solid between Roston, New York and St. Ix)uis. It is stated that the earnings of the Toledo, St. Iouls & Western are at present quite satisfactory and bid fair to continue so. Since President Shonts assumed the direction of the affairs of the road he has made a number of changes in the Interests of economy and efficiency, and the results Justify hi action. A policy of development Is being entered upon with a view to putting the road on a more solid earning basis than ever before. This company making preparations and expects to handle its full share of the St. Louis fair business. General Traffic Manager Ross, of the Toledh. St. Louis & Western, expects that the distance between Toledo and Detroit when the line is perfected will be covered in one hour. This is a property recently acquired Jointly by that road and the Grand Trunk and Is operated as a connecting link between the two systems. Mr. Ross expects through this connection to get some of the St. Louis exposition trade. He also believes that the Shore Line will have much to do with tho development of the interests of both Toledo and that eventually Toledo will benefited by this new route. commercial Detroit and be greatly Ticket offices in Chicago display signs which announce that cash in advance will be hereafter demanded for sleeping-car tickets. Reservations not paid for by the time specified on the card will be sold to the first applicant. This has made a good deal of feeling on the part of passengers and protests against such an arrangement are numerous, but the railway officials de-
