CENTRAL’S INCOMES SHOW remark.VßLE INCREASE IX VALLES FOR PAST YEAR. big jump in their value kot attributed altogether to UiCREASED EARNINGS. Person* Fauiiliar 'With Markrt Con. ditions TlilnW a Movement of Some Sort 1. Afoot in Connection With the Property—Uu.inesa to Date Promise* Well for Next Annual Keport—All Road* of the Southern Group in Good Condition. One of the most marked improve ments in railroad issues of any kind within the last few months has been that of the Central of Georgia in comes, securities that have long been favorites with local investors and which in the last year have more than justified the faith that had been placed in them by an increase of market value that has been unprecedented by sim ilar issues of any Southern road and which has probably been rarely equalled by those of any road in re cent years. How great an improvement has been made can best be shown by a comparison of the market quotations for the first, second and third in comes a year ago and those at which these securities are now quoted, as follows: Dec. 26,1903. Dec. 26,1904. BABA First incomes ..70 72 92 93 Second Incomes 31 32 72 73 Third incomes .20% 21% 62% 63% A part of this increase can be fair ly attributed to the excellent showing that the road has made in recent years, especially for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1904, when for the first time in the history of this issue of securities a dividend was paid on second incomes, but this hardly ex plains the greatly increased value that has since taken place, and. In fact persons best acquainted with the course and fluctuations of these is sues are inclined to look for something back of the movement that has sent them to their present standing. Deal May Materialize. This is shown by a letter from a firm of well-known dealers in securities in New York, which is quoted, in part, as follows: “There is again considerable activity in Central of Georgia issues, but noth ing definite comes out to account for the movement. Of course, the scarci ty of good bonds and the demand for invectments of that kind, count for something in this connection, though we must say that it is hard to reject the suggestion that some deal in re gard to the property may, after all, materialise. “An incident which has had a good effect on sentiment in connection with Southern properties generally, was the increase of the Louisville and Nash ville dividend, putting that stock on a C per cent, basis. It strikes us that when the market becomes more ac tive Southern Hallway common and preferred will be likely to exhibit ma terial advances.!! Whether it be true or not that a combination of some sort is on the tapis, the fact remains that the road, from the present outlook, will make another excellent report for the pres ent year, for the movement of cotton over the line has been almost unprece dented, and the outlook is that that of fertilizer will be unusually heavy, while the generally prosperous condi tion of the country has caused a large movement of miscellaneous freight, as well. It Is stated, too, iby persons In timately connected with the manage ment that the property is being in no wise neglected, and that as a result the physical condition of the road has never been better. Southern Group's Showing. In a great measure what can be said of the Central’s outlook for a pros perous year is applicable to the other roads of the Southern group, the South ern Railway, the Atlantic Coast Line, the Louisville & Nashville, and the Sea board Air Line, all enjoying the same class of trade and, therefore, each sharing in the present prosperity as is shown by the following tables of their earnings for the season up to and in cluding the first week of the present month: Atlantic Coast Line—Gross earnings, from July 1, 56,575,431; previous year, $6,065,420; increase, $510,011. Central of Georgfa—Gross earnings from July 1, $4,706,485; previous year, $4,200,765; increase, $505,720. Louisville & Nashville—Gross earn ings from July 1, $16,922,480; previous year, $16,412,804; increase, $509,676. Seaboard Air Line—Gross earnings from July 1, $4,308,706; previous year, $3,999,436: increase, $309,270. Southern Railway—Gross earnings from July 1, $21,521,003; previous year, $20,026,148; increase, $1,494,866. Xmas Rates Seaboard Air Line Rail way. Account of Christmas, the Seaboard Air Line Railway will sell tickets to the public on Dec. 23, 24. 25 and 31, 1904, and Jan. 1, 1905, at rate of one and one-third first-class fares for the round trip to all points east of the Mississippi and south of the Ohio and Potomac rivers.

BIG DEMAND FROM WEST BROUGHT ABOUT BY THE ACTIVITY OF CAR BUILDING PLANTS. Till* Ha* Cut Oft from Coastwise Shipment Through Savannah a Large l’art of the Stall' That Form erly Went That Way—Projected Large Building Operation* Fol lowing Presidential Election lias Helped Demand and Stiffened Tone Even at Higher Prices. The yellow pine lumber business after a very disasterous slump in val ues that lasted without interruption from the early spring of the present year, until some few weeks ago is now again in a very satisfactory condition as regards both demand and the price basis, and the coming year holds out only the brightest prospects for a con tinuance of this condition. The improvement made itself felt first in the increased demand from the interior and the West and came in a large part from the car builders whose plants having accepted con tracts for thousands of cars hurried on the market within a very short space of time found themselves under the necessity of buying a very large amount of lumber and getting it quick ly if their contracts were to be filled on time. That the demand for this class of supplies was urgent is shown by the fact that many of the presi dents of these car building plants themselves visited the yellow pine belt in this state, and this vicinity in or der to place their wants before the dealers and mill men and urge hurry work in delivery. Demand and Prices Better. This naturally cut off from coastwise shipment a large quantity of lumber that had previously gone to the East ern cities through this port and the lessening of the supply, together with the Increased building operations that have been projected since the presi dential election, has increased the de mand for ail kinds of lumber and at the same time hardened the tone of the market even at the higher price level that has recently been reached. The volume of business coastwise has as yet shown no very material in crease, though large orders have been accepted by local lumber men and heavy shipments will go forward in the near future. Already two such ship ments have been arranged for, one of some 625,000 feet of yellow pine will be taken by the David to New Bedford, Mass., within the next few days. It will be shipped by the Granger-Stubbs Lumber Cos. and will be used in build ing cotton mill plants. Another order of almost the same size will be ship ped also on the David to New Bruns wick. This will be shipped by Mr. J. A. Calhoun. Boon to Mill Men. The demand for car material comes as a boon to sawmill men, as they can use in gettihg out this stuff timber that otherwise would be valueless or practically so, and in using this class of timber they in no wise interfere with the cut of dimension sizes. The better tone to lumber has reach ed all branches of the trade for even cross-ties, which for many months have been very dull, have recently not only shown a firmer tone under the increase of demand, but are daily expected to advance in price from that at present paid, 40 to 42 cents, to 45 cents and it is a question whether even at this advance the supply will equal the de mand. The fact is that owners of tim ber are unwilling to manufacture ties at this basis when the timber that must be used for that purpose is of probably twice the value when cut into dimension sized lumber.
