ytaher May provisions closed weak and
from 6a7c lu 25c lower.
The chief factor affecting the wheat pit
as the extremely bearish Argentine ad
vices, Broomhall reporting that the ex
portable surplus of wheat from that coun

Pool cables were also lower, duo p-irtiy to
the liberal offerings of Argentine wheat In
that market, and contributed to the gen
eral depression. In consequence of those
BtatlMlcs there was considerable rising, but
covering by shorts gave a fair support to
he market and presented a severe break.

shorts In the January delivery was also a
supporting favor. Scalpers were the best
sellers. The close waa steady, with May
unchanged to Vi" lower at 4'Jft I2:ic. after
ranging between i2c and M,c. Ixical re
celpta were 691 ears, with rive of contract

There waa a moderate trade In oats and

limited and came mainly from scalpers.
The close was steady with Mav a shade
i higher at S3V&33H aftrr selling between
83V4C and 8.1S"'. Ical receipts were 331 cars.
There was considerable realising In pro
visions, which resulted In a lower tendency
to prices. A feature In the trading was
the action of January pork, which was very
erratic and made a drop of It per bbl. It
opened at I17.K5, and after selling at $1S
there was a break to $17. Ite In the day
a good demand from brokers brought a
rally, and the close was tec lower at 117.30.
An unexpected Increase In the contract
wtocks for the month was the main bear
) ctor, although the weak hog market also
tided to the depression. May pork closed

WEARE COMMISSION COMPAY,
earnings of ihe Pennsylvania railroad. The
rate at wnicti the rise in operating ex
penses In this railroad system was seen to
outstrip the gnlna In gross earnings served
to enforce doubts caused by a similar tend
ency which has become general throughout
the railroad world. The Pennsylvania lines
directly operated showed an Increase In
gross earnings for November of 8691,5oo,.but
expenses ln reaseil $l,3v(.M0, eo that net
earnings decreased 8T71. On the lines
west of Pittsburg and Erie there was re
ported an Increare In gross earnings of $93.
t, with a growth of $.VS.2) In operating
expenses, resulting In a decrease In net
earnings of $414.(S"i0. The whole railroad lit
weakened sharply under the Influence of
this showing. Prices In some Important
storks. Including Pennsylvania, receded to
a point or more below last night. There
was an animated recovery upon the ap
pearance of the bank statement, with Its
unexpected recuperation of H. 644, 600 In the
surplus reserves of the banks. Such a
showing Is almost unpret edented for the
first week In January. That the banks
should have been able to set through the
January settlement, which required re
sources In excess of all previous records,
with a merely nominal Increase In loans,
was In Itself a pleasant surprise to those
who had felt nervous about the money sit
uation. In addition, the gain In cash for
the week reached $5.4.Oi), which Is almost
$a.i'io.l In excels of the largest preliminary
estimates. The redeposlt of cash by the re
tall shops, making up the proceeds of
Christmas trade, is attributed as the cause
of this showing. The recovery In prices
met renewed hesvy eelllng, snd the market
cloned easy and with net changes mixed.
Amalgamated Copper and United States
Steel were notably flrrn throughout. Man
hattan was weakened by the requirements
made upon the company by the state rail
road commission for Increased equipment.

One of the noteworthy moves In th
financial world that Is attracting a great
deal of attention Is the pooling of Inter
ests by small investors. A St. Louis llrm,
the National Securities Company, Is the
prime mover In the plm. Thin company
receives the money of thousands of small
Investors, and. combining them, form
gigantic sums which enable them to suc
cessfully transact enormous deals that pay
handsome profits to the Individual mem
of the pool. This is another phase of
the Community of Interest Idea made so
popular by J. Plerpont Morgan, tho only
difference being that this company Is com
posed of un unlimited number of small In
vestors, while Mr. Morgan a companies are
composed of u limited number of rich men.
The Natlonul Is the tirst company organ
ized on this new plan, but because of Ita
wonderful success It Is but a question of a
short time until many more will enter the
field. It la a well known fact that tho
man of money has thousands of opportuni
ties to make profitable investments that
never come to the man of email means.
In populnr liinguaRe. "It takes money t
make money." By this successful plan of
combination the small Investor with from
fifty to a few hundred dollars secures the
same opportunities that come to the man
of millions, and as a consequence realises
the same enormous per cent of profit on his
Investment, however email It may be. It
can be safely raid that a more marked
departure than tills plan was never made lu
the world of money and those who take
advantage of the opportunities offered by
this company will realize more on their
money In a week than they would under
ordinary conditions in a year. Thu general
plan upon which the company Is operated
does not materially differ Irom that em
ployed by tho National Bunks. The In
vestors of the company occupy the same
position us the stockholders ot the I. link.
Each and every thirty il.iys a dividend la
declared and each investor receives a draft
ployed by the National Banks. The Invest
ors of the compuny occupying 'he sama
run no risks wuhtever. The entire capital
of the company, One Hundred Thousand
Dollars t$lm,0WJ). stands between the In
vestors and low. The majority of the
mammoth fortunes of this country were
made by almost exactly the same methods
as those employed by the National Securi
ties Company. Combination is the keynote
of present day success. The small investor,
by placing his money with that of hundreds
and even thousands of other small in
vestors, obtains all the advantages of
enormous capital unil his money earns as
much, dollar for dollar, as that of the
millionaire "Captains of Industry," while
small sums, if invested alone, earn but
3 or 4 per cent and are usually tied up for
long periods of time. Investments In the
National Securities Company pay more
than tills each month and are subject to
withdrawal at any time. Upon investing
the Investor receives a Certificate of De
posit, stating on Its face that a sum equal
to 6 per cent a month Is guaranteed, pay
able monthly, and giving the holder ot tho
certificate the right to return the certificate
at any time he may choose and withdraw
his investment In whole or In part in
stantaneously. This Is without question
one of the greatest opportunities for safe
and highly profitable investment in the
entire iinanclal world. It is worthy the
careful consideration of any man who de
sires to rapidly accumulate u snug bank
balance and yet have his money invested
where It is at all times subject to In
stantaneous withdrawal and protected from
loss by a company whose Iinanclal stand
ing and reliability is beyond question.
The National Securities Company Ih rap
Idly extending Its Held of nitrations, and,
to arouse adilltionnl Interest, has issued a
booklet explaining fully Its plan of operat
ing and giving full Information in regard
to everytldng an investor would want to
know. This booklet is sent free to all who
write for It. Address at once. National
