STRONG BUT UNEVEN
WAS THE tone of the sew vowk
STOCK MARKET.
COTTON CARRIERS HELPED
by THE GOVERNMENT’S ESTIMATE
OF ABNORMAL CROP.
Some of the Southern Roads Also Af
fected by .the Improvement iu Soft
Coal Truffle—tutted States Steel
Touched Nett High Record fof the
Year—Advances Hue to Humors ot
Higher Prices for Steel Products.
New York, Dec. s.—To-day’s stock
market was strong, but the strength
was uneven and a few of the most
prominent stocks closed the day at
fractional declines from last night.
The strength in the market grew out
of conditions in the cotton, coal, cop
per and iron and steel trades. Even
in the groups affected by these trades
there was some profit taking, as in
Louisville and Nashville, which closed
lower after erratio fluctuations.
The government's estimate of a cot
ton crop of considerably over 12,000,000
bales and the prospect thus afforded
to the cotton carriers of abundant
traffic was sufficient ground for the
movements In that group. Some of the
southerly trunk lines are sharers in
both the cotton and soft coal traffic
and were in sympathy with both
groups.
Steel Made Record.
In the anthracite group both Read
ing and Ontario and Western got the
benefit of conflicting surmises as to
which was to secure the Lehigh Coal
and Navigation Company. United
States Steel preferred touched anew
high record for the year on account
of rumors of still further advances in
prices of steel products and the main
tenance of present prices for steel
rails.
The large dividend declaration on
Boston and Montana, a subsidiary
stock, was the motive for the buying
of Amalgamated Copper. Outside of
these quarters of the market and of a
list of speculative specialties the
buying of Amalgamated Coppercmb m
movement was irregular. Total sales
bonds, par value, $3,040,000.

DEMERE & HAMMOND’S
Weekly Stock Letter.
There was general strength in the
stock market, although in the late
dealings there was some moderate re
actions. There was no special new de
velopments to stimulate the market
except the government report on cot
ton, which naturally directed atten
tion to the stocks of the different
Southern roads, and we therefore feel,
after due consideration of this cotton
report, to be very bullish on Seaboard
Air Line, Louisville and Nashville, At
lantic Coast Line, Illinois Central,
Texas and Pacific. Central of Georgia
incomes and Southern Railway stock.
In the industrial group there has been
displayed considerable strength in the
Steel issues. Rubber Goods, and Vir
ginia-Carolina Chemical, and we look
for much higher prices in these stocks,
especially in the latter. The local
traction group rules steady and firm,
with tendency toward higher prices
next week. We can’t help but feel that
the bull side of the market is the one
to adhere to. and we learn that Chi
cago and Great Western is to be ad
vanced next week, and along with
this stock we advise the purchase of
Southern Railroad shares and Virginia-
Carolina Chemical stock. The mone
tary situation has been agitating the
minds of some of the financial people,
but it was very gratifying to see an
increase in the surplus reserve and a
decrease in the loan items in Satur
day’s bank statement, therefore we do
not feel that there is to be any trou
ble on this score. From all appear
ances It looks as If there is going to
be a great deal of money seeking in
vestment between now and the early
part of next year.
WARE & LELAND.
Weekly Stock Letter.
New York, Dec. 3.—Although bank
statement made very good Impression
the volume of trading after its pub
lication was lighter than it had been
in first hour.
There was some shading off of places
principally among Grangers’ stocks,
but special advanced were in most
cases retained.
London was unusually heavy trader.
Transactions for foreign account were
mainly purchases and probably total
50,000 shares on balance.
Most important news was the gov
ernment cotton report. Western crowd
are buying Southern stocks as if each
road would carry the whole crop, but
effect on commission house business
was undoubtedly good Total sales,
to-day were 879,200 shares. The ten
dency of the market Is still upward.
This week we put our customers in
Copper, Colorado Fuel and Iron and
Norfolk and Western. For next week
buy Southern Pacific, V. C. and Ca
nadian Pacific. Don’t be afraid of
the market. It is in a perfectly healthy
condition, and will continue to ad
vance. American District Telegraph
Company is tipped for 45.

SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY. DECEMBER 4. 1904
WHY?
There are many sound reasons why copper shares should advance, the
principal reason being the present and the coming high price for the refin
ed metal. There has never in the history of Wall street been a more pro
nounced bull movement in any particular class of securities than is now
apparent in copper stocks.
We have persistently and urgently recommended the stock of ths
MONTREAL & BOSTON CONSOLIDATED MINING AND SMELTING
COMPANY to our customers and to those with whom we have been In
correspondence regarding this security. We stated publicly and privately
around the first of November, when the shares were selling at %, that
before the month was out a big advance would take place.
This stock is now selling at about 3%, and is going much higher. There
are opposing factions seeking to obtain control of the stock issue, and
offers of $6.00 per share for a controlling interest have been made to
stockholders of record. We know the intrinsic value of these shares to be
at least $lO, and the stock will eventually sell for that figure. We urge
every one who reads these lines to buv this stock without delay.
INSURED
We are so confident as to the future market price of this stock that
we are offering those who place their orders with us to insure them against
any material loss, by issuing to them a contract which binds us to receive
or repurchase the full number of shares bought, at $3 per share. For
this contract or privilege we make absolutely no charge. The following is
a fac-smile of the contract which we give to each purchaser of the stock
of the MONTREAL & BOSTON CONSOLIDATED MINING AND SMELT
ING COMPANY, who buy shares through us:
New York, 1904.
For value received, the bearer may deliver us sharep of
the stock of the Montreal & Boston Consolidated Mining and Smelting
Company, at $3 per share, any time within thirty days from date.
All dividends for which transfer books close during said time go with
the stock, one day’s notice required except last day.
Expires 1901. (Signed) F. P. WARD & CO.
Although the stock has had an advance, it is selling so far below
its true value that any one buying now cannot fail to make enormous
profits.
There is a very broad market for this stock, and many thousand shares
are being bought daily. It is the most attractive of any of the Copper
Stocks at this time, for the reason that it will now have the same pro
portionate advance as Amalgamated and other Copper Stocks. It is the
most active stock on the miscellaneous market and is quoted in all the
papers. Those of our customers who acted on our advicp and bought 100
shares of this stock at less than one dollar per share now have a profit
of about $300.00, and purchasers of 1,000 shares have a profit of $3,000 00
Make all remittances payable to the undersigned. We advise that you
wire us your order in order to buy before a further advance, and let your
remittance follow. All purchases will be made at the lowest market nrice
M. & B. closed on Saturday at 3% to 3%.
