Good Advances Mndo by Ameri
can and Baldwin Public
Demand Still Large.
NEW YORK, April i5.-Mllllon-ohnro
lays are becoming quite common on tlio
Stock Exchange, nnd today more than
this amount changed hnmls, with tlio
public ngnln the largest taker, ilcmarut
from outside sources beltu laigc. Dur
ing the morning session thcio unn some
Hesitation and uUlte a little realizing,
Init offerings were well token and the
market showed good absorptive povvor.
Some concern was tell In the Street over
reports that Japan had established a I
riavat base. In Loner California on Tur- i
tie Bay, but when this was denied fiom
Washington and from the Japanese em
bassy at the capital, tlio market rallied
sharply and demand became lnrce. kooiI
slzcd advances being mmlo 'throughout
the list. It was denied by the Japanese
Embassy that Japan had am Intention
ot securing a naval base on tlio .Mrvlimi
coast.
Total sales wcro Stocks, fl.27S,G00;
bonds, $4,000,000.
As an explanation ot tho hesitation of
the market In the morning nesslon tho
street offered the advance In the prlcen
of grain In tho Chicago pit, saying thai
this probably meant the prolonging of
the war.
Chief Interest todnv centred In the
shares of the American Locomotive Com
pany and the tlaldwln Locomotive Com
pany, tho former; advancing morn than
eight points and the latter more than
seven points. The rise In American vvm
based on tho report that tho compani had
closed a big contract with tho Itusslan
Government for war material". There
were also reports that Tlaldwiti would re
ceive somo of the contracts being given
out by the European Povvcri, but this
was denied by an olllclul.
Railroad stocks wcie Inclined to heavi
ness, but maintained a level above tho
closo of yesterday No sales of Penn
sylvania were recorded on the tape In
tho morning session and did not open
until the afternoon session.
Strength was shown In the Intcrborough
Metropolitan Issues, the common at one
time being up a ull point and tho
preferred more than 1'- The explana
tion of the strength was the old report
that dividends weie to bo resumed on
the preferred stock Tho repoi I hud it
that, thero would be a stipulation that
the preferred sharcholdcis would aban
don the dividends that have been piling
up during the last few j cars. An mro
announcement of u plan was expected
United States Meel showed heaviness
during tho morning, but around midday
advanced up to the flnnl of cstpnlii .
Bethlehem Steel again devoted the day to
jumping around In an Irregular fashion.
After being H points above It fell be
low yesterday's final. The market closed
irregular
The iiuarterly report of the Lacka
wanna Steel Company for the period end
ing March 31 was a discouraging docu
ment as far ns tho Income account was
concerned, but It did show a substantial
Increase In ordor on tho books. The In
come was but $27,432, against $154,Mti In tho
same period last year, while the total In-
uumc lur ilie iiunim vvuh tu.viu, umimsi
Kuctm. incre was a ucncit or smo,ij,
compared with $143,207 last nar
Unfilled orders wcro S3,0i2 gross tons
larger, that Item standing at 223,010 gross
tons, which Indicates that the steel trado

An Advancing Bond Market
QJINCE January 1 we have strongly recommended the purchase
VJ of a selected list of bonds. The factors which produced the
recent advance are still at work, and are almost certain to
produce higher prices in specific cases.
Returning confidence and easy money conditions have
brought about a bond buying opportunity which careful investors
cannot afford to further ignore.
Wc have especially attractive tax-free offerings to make at
this time, and shall be glad to submit them upon request. A
new descriptive circular is ready for mailing to any one interested.

TO THE HOLDERS OP
TWO-YEAR 5 SECURED GOLD NOTES
DUE MAY 1, 1915,
OF
.
Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway Company
Tho Officers and Directors of tho Railway Company., in conference with holders of largo amounts of the
above Notes, havo been considering plans for the readjustment of tho Company's financial position in con
nection with tho approaching maturity of the Notes, and the Directors havo appointed a Committee of their
number consisting of Messrs. Horace E. Andrews, Geo. W. Davison, Lewis B. Franklin, A. J. Miller and
Frank Trumbull to perfect without delay a plan for presentation to the Stockholders.
The present emergency is not due to lack of earning power, as tho property Is showing increases both
in gross and net earnings and u surplus over all fixed charges, but is due to the maturing at an unfavorable i
time of this large amount of capital obligations. Any plan necessarily involves action by tho Stockholders j
ot tho Company, in order to provide for tho payment of tho Notes and the consequent protection of their
interest in the property. It has been impossible to wtrk out a definite' plan in time for submission to the
Stockholders at their recent annual meeting, as a large proportion of the stock is held abroad and foreign -holders
could not be consulted in timo. j
The Committee is proceeding diligently and hope3 to make an announcement at an early date. The j
plans under consideration contemplate an issue, to be offered to Stockholders, of securities carrying a con- J
tmgent charge or of Preferred Stock, which latter has only become practicable through the enactment by i
the Kansas Legislature of an Act shortly to become effective authorizing such issues upon consent of the 1
folders of three-fourths of the stock, j
In the meantime, the Comnanv. in tho intnrast. hnth nt tim ivrntniiniii.va n,i KHr,i,i,i,i.-a la nlilitred
to ask Jor an extension of the Notes and has therefore entered into an Agreement dated April 14, 1015, i
wuh ciivjui iimv nuiiipuny 01 new rorK as Trustee, providing for the extension for one year, viz., ut '
ilW?lPiL$eiie Notes' wrm INTEREST AT THE RATE OP 6 PER ANNUM, INSTEAD OF J
5ee PER ANNUM, payable semi-annually, November I and May 1, the Extended Notes to be redeemable
in whole or m part at 101 and accrued interest at any time upon thirty days' previous notice.
Noteholders may become parties to such Extension Agreement by depositing their Notes with the
coupons due May 1, 1915, attached, with CENTRAL TRUST COMPANY OF NEW YORK, as Depositary, '
at its office. No. 54 Wall Street, New York City, or any other Depositary designated by Central Trust ,
Company of New York, as provided in the Extension Agreement. A
The Depositary will issue temporary receipts for the deposited Notes without charge to Noteholders. 9
On the Extension Agreement becoming effective, the Railway Company will pay to the holders of receipts
on presentation thereof on or after May 1, 191D, at the office of the Depositary the instalment "of interest
payable on that date, such payment being Mjoted on the receipts. Holders of receipts, on surrender
thereof to the Depositary, will bo entitled to an equal amount of Extended Notes with additional coupons,
when ready for delivery or, in the eyent that the Extension Agreement shall not become effective, to the
return of Notes of equal face amount, with the coupon payable May '1, 1916, attached.
Noteholders Should Hennsit thpfr Nntoa nn nr rwfnro Anrll 9fi 101 5 aa hMsJ In tn Hvtnnsinn AcrCO-
ment, copies of which may be obtained at the office of the Company, that of Central Trust Company of New ',

The Railway Company reserves the right to rescind the Extension Agreement if the Board of Directors
shall determine that holders of a sufficient amount of Notes have not agreed to the extension. '
Holders of more than a majority in amount of the outstanding Notes have already
agreed to the extension.
New York, April 14, 1916.

FRANK TRUMBULL, C. E. SCHAFF,
Chairman. President
