Kemale-dine Pasha, a son of Ghazi Osman Pasha, the "Conqueror of Plevna." began suit today in the Mohammedan religious court against his wife, the sultan's daughter, Naime Sultana, for the custody of their 12-year-old son. The decision of the Atchison directors to allow the common dividend to remain at the 5 per cent rate for at least another six months was quite In line with the expectation of well informed bankers and brokers In the street. The opinion may be ventured that such action on their part is Just as likely to recommend the stock to careful Investors as a restoration of the former dividend basis in advance of the full recovery of industry and trade.

As to the sufficiency of current eamnigs to cover a 6 per cent annual rate, however, there is no question. In the eight months of the present fiscal year to the end of February the road earned its fixed charges and preferred dividends, with a balance of approximately $9,000,000 to spare. On the company's $103,000,000 outstanding common stock this is equivalent to S.8 per cent, or at the rate of about 13 per cent a ypsf. This calculation is subject to correction on account of whatever difference there was between other income and such variable charges as rentals and hire of equipment, but roughly represents the company's present rate of income. In the corresponding stock wai approximately the equivalent of 7 per cent annually on the common stock.

Aside from the uncertainty of the crops, the directors had to consider In connection with the dividend rate the company's convertible bonds, of which there are outstanding $73,770,000. An Increase In the dividend rate to 6 per cent might bring about the conversion of a part or the whole of this debt into common stock. The difference between 4 per cent on $47,714,000 bonds plus 5 per cent on bonds and 6 per cent on the stock into which these bonds are convertible at par would mean a net additional disbursement of $1,215,000. To measure the effect of the conversion of the bonds In another way, the surplus for the common stock earned In eight months may be taken to represent a surplus of a year. The conversion of the bonds would relieve the company of $3,200,000 interest charges, increasing1 the surplus for the common, on the above basis of earnings, to according to the Wall Street Journal.

On the $177,000,000 of common stock, in round numbers, that would be in the hands of the public after the conversion of the bonds, this balance would represent about 9.4 per cent. It would still leave $6,000,000 for improvements and other expenditures chargeable to surplus income. To the above calculation it may be objected that the second half of the fiscal year Is ordinarily less profitable to the granger railroads than the first, and that the figures are based principally on the first half of the year. But that difference has nov usually "been of great importance with tne Atchison and this year the process of recovery from depression, still going on. Is.

not unlikely to offset the seasonal decline in the road's net earnings. At any rate, it can be said that, barring serious Injury to the growing crops, the financial conditions which would naturally lead to a restoration of the Atchison's 6 per cent dividend rate are pretty clearly in sight. ly relations with Zekie Sulttna, a daughter of the late unfortunate Sultan Murad.

JKew April 10. The Evening Post in its financial review, says: In observance of Good Friday, all important stock exchanges in the world were closed today, and there were no quotations. The money markets were consequently nominal.

Grain markets were Open, here and in and wheat, after an early show of strength declined rather sharply. The problem is. how far the throwing on the market, this wetk, of a part of the huge amount locked up by the during the past few months will affect the available supply. The bank statement, which was published as usual, was unimportant, except as reflecting an unusually large shifting of loans from truat companies to banks, the loan account decreasing at the trust companies and in-i-reasintr nenrlv SKI.OOO.txjo at the banks. This was offset, in the i-rsc of the banks, hy a $4,500,00 increase in cash holdings, and the decrease in their supply reserves was onlv the trifling sum of It is a very old.

and often a very fuiile question just what a given market was discounting. Sometimes we seem to grasp the key to such a movement only to find that the key will not fit at all. year, for instance it appeared at times as if the market were discounting return, within a week or so. of the pre-panic boom in trade, and in fact, the cold testimony of figures to the effect that business was barely one-half what it was a year before generally stopped timt particular discounting process. Hut it did not end the tendency to anticipate thing; the discounting soon began again, and the year ended, even when the after election boom had been pretty much knocked In thf head; with prices of active stock 25 to 50 points higher than when 1908 begn.

It is possible, in the present boom In prices, to argue that the stock exchange Is merely discounting continued easy money, acting on the patent fact that so long as loans can be procured at to 2 per cent, find Invested in stocks whose dividends, even at current prices, net the Investor 4 per cent or more, it Is worth while to keep on buying. This is a rational argument, it explains some otherwise puzzling things; as, for instance, why the still lower money rates of 1894 were accompanied, not by booms on the stock exchange but by severe depression. People who hold to the theory above set forth would probably account for the discrepancy by the fact that In 1894 railways were very generally earning no dividends at all. Union Pacific. Northern racific, Atchison.

Erie, and Reading were bankrupt. Louisville. Missouri Pacific. Southern Pacific, and Southern Railway paid nothing on their shares. Clearly, there was little or no inducement to buy stocks of these corporations purely on the basis of easy money.

On the other hand, however, there were stocks like St. Paul, F.urlington and Qulncy. Lackawanna. New York Central, North-westprn, Pennsylvania, and Delaware Hudson, which paid annual dividends, throughout 1S94 of 4 to 7 per cent. Tet.

even with money at 1 per cent or less pretty much throughout the year, stocks ended the 12 months in almost every instance at or below the price at the end of 1S93. RABBI M. S. SrVTTZ.

The Bank of England's 2.2iH),KiO pound sterling loss of gold this past week the first net loss of any week since the 3 per cent rate was fixed in January is not of any special significance. In the main, it reflects the normal month end requirements which on, this occasion coincided with the usual cash withdrawals for une over the Raster holidays. After this week, cash will return to the bank. We are not likely to export gold heavily, hut Russia and Austria muy conceivably buy the South African arrivals at a moderate extent. Further erain of a.

million gold from abroad might mean a 2 per cent mink rate, which however, the best quarters do not desire, believing that it would unduly encourage numerous borrowing operations after Easter. 15C loo 12o up. This morning it was generally believed that Select Council will have corporations, nitrations, public safety, charities and correction, libraries, and health and sanitation, while the committees on finance, public works, surveys, parks and bridges will go to the Common branch. The air is filled with conjectures as to the men slated for the various chairmanships, but it was generally conceded that J. C.

Oliver, Dr. H. B. Burns, P. B.

Kearns. C. C. Kohne. L.

11. Frederick, C. Williams and Morris Kinstein will be pretty certain to be found in important chairmanships. One slate has It that William J. Burke, common, will be chairman of the public works committee, and that J.

C. Oliver or C. C. Kohne, select, will be chosen for corporations. Another slate puts Oliver as chairman of the.

committee on public safety, C. C. Williams as chairman of the committer on charities and correction and Dr. Burns as chairman of the health committee. It was for a time generally beii -ved that Dr.

H. P. Franklin would be selected as chairman of the finance committee, but It is now believed that he will not get the appointment. Just who is slated for the place cannot be ascertained, althoug'i many guesses are made. It is g-nerallv understood that Dr.

Franklin may get the chairmanship of the surveys committee, and that either Dr. Frederick or Kearns will get tin chairmanship of the committee on libraries.

(Baton clear CRITICS SAY: THIS IS THE MOST TRAGIC STORY THAT EVER CAME FROM A WOMAN'S HEARTS This bock is different from the stream of confes3ions" and "diaries" inflicted upon the public in th last few years.

The othera were written to sell, and their artificiality of sentiment is patent In every line; this is real, bitingly. convincingly genuine, so much so that there are passages poignant that the mere reading hurts. There is no appeal to passion, no striving for effect In the mute entries of this diary: it tells only the simple thintrs of a quiet life, everyday thittRs; hut they're true to life that's the secret they're true! I wonder," writes the Neglected Wife, "if I could have held his love longer had I dressed more and been more careful that he should never see me unless I was attractively gowned. When I look back I am filled with dismay to think how often he has seen me when I must have been most unattractive. It is true that fifteen years of married life have made me careless.

I remember all the lacy, delicate perfumed lingerie of my wedding trousseau, and how he used to admire them and call them But now I wear the plainest and most unbecoming things. I have felt that it was unnecessary and extravagant to spend as much money on lingerie; instead I have put it in the house in rugs, cut glass and silver in things I could foolish I have been! How much wiser to have bought some expensive morning-gowns than that solid silver tea set this fall. The gowns would have made me more attractive every morning at breakfast, and the tea-service I don't think he ever noticed it." WATCH FOR THIS STORV- IN THE PRESS NEXT TUESDAY AU'-phenv Val.
