FALL IN FAIRMOUNT
TRACTION SHARES
LOCAL MTORE
Need of Reorganization
Causes Drop Stock Sold
"Under the Rule" Re
strictions Removed From
Rapid Transit.
The feature of the trading on the local
exchange toda.v was n further sharp
break In rnlrmount Tark Tramportatlon,
which sold down to ',4. Some of the offer
ings this afternoon wero "under tho rule"
for the nccount of the failed firm oi'
Morcau, 1,'cbcr & Co. Two hundred shares
fold at 4 for this account and 270 sold
regutaily nt prices tanging fiom 4 to
la-IB. The last previous sale was at 7, al
though It was offered down to i jcsto.dio
The refusal of stockholders so far to
agree to the plan to reorganize the
Kalrmount company on the basis of a
cash pajment of $3 60 uns doubtless a
factor In the decline
i'o date 1S.&70 shares of the total of (0,000
have atrrecd to the plun, uhicu Is not a
majorll. Tlin date limit for subscription
Is Kclnunr IS. An nssessement or l.tf0
pur sluilo mi the stock of the tampan)
Is pioposcd. puable tl Kebiuary 15, Jl
March 15, and not exceeding 51 60 Sep
tember 15, PII5. The cash requirements
are estimated at about 70 000. Subscribers
to the plan will receive for i-ocli (10 paid
on their subscription one nhare of prefer
red and Ave shares of common stock In
thn new company of tho pnr value of J10
each. The proposed reorganization plan
for the Knlrmount Tnrk Transportation
Company provides for the formation of
n new comnnnv with SS00.000 capital ntocit.
JIOO.COO of which to bo 7 per cent, preferred
cumulative after January 1. 1916, to ac
quire the property of the present company
subject to thn K50.000 bonds and mortgage".
Thoro ns little ele to discuss In the
day's dealings. On the whole the tone
was firm, but transitions were small and
devoid of much slgnillcanco throughout
the greater pnrt of the session. Kejstone
Telephone shares failed to icspond to
the January report, which showed an In
crease of J2403 In gross and $1733 In net
enrnlnus. The surplus was 28,650, a gain
of $-'0?3 over January, 10H
Rapid Transit was not so active as of
late It was learned today on good au
thority that the January report of earn
ings, which will bo out shortly, will make
an unusually encouraging showing. Sub
stantial Increases In returns over those
of December are looked for. and In fact
It Is said that earnings are running as
much an MDOO per dav higher than In the
last month of 10H. This Is atttlbuted In
part to the unusually open winter and
also to the evangelistic meetings. The
recent btolng of the stock Is snld to bo
due to foreknowledge of what the Janu
nrv report will show.
Considerable suprlse was expressed b
the removal of all restilctlve limits on
Rapid Transit shares to take effect to
morrow. The way the stock has acted
latrh doubtless convinced the commit
tee thnt there wbh no longer need to safe

In the warrants for tho new stock nt

however, and the stock Itself l elapsed
Into Its previous Inert state.
