Board to Consider $100,000,000 In
crease in Capital Stock.
Cheaters have bean cent out to the sharehold
er, c£ th» Chicago & Northwestern Railway
c ' o:= j)£ay, calling a apeolal meeting' at Calca^o
'&: October 18 to authorise an Increase In the
capital stock from $100,000,000 to $200,000,000.
gati increase would bo doubling: the present
totalization. No authoritative explanation of
tin proposed Increase In capital could be ofo-
ZiizeX, bet It was generally accepted as indi
cating a determination to extend the line
jjttoagb to the Pacifio Coast, following the cx
gißpls of the St. Paul and other competitors.
ffce additional $100,00<XOOO would be Issued at
jj. 9 discretion of the directors, thus putting; the
jtorthvettern in the class with several of Its
competitors, which are in a position to issue
various large blocks of authorized stock.
Extension of the Northwestern to the Pacific
j25 been discussed for considerable time by
western railroad men. though the management
c f the road has usually denied such a purpose
vbesever it was rumored. The alliance of other
of the Western roads and the contemplated ex
tension of the St. Paul to the Pacific, however.
Indicated to railroad men the necessity for sim
jjtr action on the part of the Northwestern, If
progress were to be continued.
X director of the company, discussing that
rubject yesterday, said thai the Increase In stock
412 not necessarily mean that any spedno plan
for extension was under consideration now by
the management, but it did mean that the di
rectors realized that the time was coming for
blf»fr. things, and that it had been considered
fair for the stockholders to take their part in
the expansion. The old policy of making ex
pansions out of the surplus earnings, he tsi'.,
tjrts not necessary any longer.

Officials Refuse to Say Why Profits
Were Not Declared.
Xo announcement -was mad* yesterday, following
tha meetings of the exoouthra committees of the
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific as to the decla
ration of dividends. OAoiala of the systems refused
to answer any Questions on that subject, and de
clined to say whether dividends had been declared
and would be announced later. •
Much surprise was felt m '.hi financial section
when this policy became known. Announcement
of the regular dividend for Southern Pacific and
of an Increased dividend for Union Pacifies had been
awaited with confldanot, and the e\li»s of both
stock* had reflected this feeling. When it became
known that the dividends had sot been announced
stocks of both roads sold off from *4 of a point to
1 point from high mark.
Statements of the earning? tor both roads for the
year ended June 30 were made nubile, and a lather
general impression exists that action regarding the
dividends was taken, but, lor some reason of pol
icy. Is being: delayed, wall Stroet heard a rumor
yesterday that several "fake" orders had been sent
to various commission houses for the sale of large
blocks of Union Pacific and Southern. Pacific stock.

STOCK TAX MAN TAKEN.
Police Say He Asked $250 to Stop
Law's Enforcement.

stock transfer tax examiner, employed In tho
State Controller's office at William street and
Exchange Place, was locked up at Police Head
quarters last night on the complaint of a Broad
street mining company, which alleges that $250
was demanded by him. The prisoner gave his
address as Xo. 146 Bay 81st street. Brooklyn.
According to the police, Freeman In July went
to Joseph Shanfleld. at No. 25 Broad street, who
Is the New York representative of the Arizona
Copper Belt Mining Company, whose main office
Is In Denver. He asked. It is alleged. If the
company was complying with the stock transfer
law. Mr. Shanfleld said he was unfamiliar with
the law.
Freeman. It is said, told Mr. Shanfield that he
need not bother with the law If one of two
things were done. He then explained, Mr. Shan
field says, that one way to avoid the law was
to move the company to Now Jersey, and the
other was "to see him." He told Mr. Shanfleld,
It is alleged, that he was the Inspector of the
Broad street district arid, that he was able to
cover everything. He is alleged to have said
that by the payment of $250 everything would
be all right.
Mr. Shanfleld says that ho told Freeman to
call in a few days, as he would have to com
municate with his office In Denver before any
action was taken. The Detective Bureau was
Informed, and Detective Sergeant Thor was put
on the case. Arrangements were made, it Is
said, to have Freeman call at the office yes
terday.
Mr. Shanfleld went to the bank and got five
$10 bills, and. taking the numbers, mailed them
to Acting Police Inspector Dunn on Wednesday
night.
Thor went to Shanfleld's office yesterday morn
ing and occupied a desk near Mr. Shanfleld. Late
in the afternoon Freeman entered and sat down
between the two. He talked with Mr. Shan
fleld for a few minutes, and then, it is alleged.
Mr. Shanfleld gave him marked money. As
Freeman started to go out. Thor arrested him.
He was Immediately taken to Police Headquar
ters, where he was searched. The police say
the marked $50 was found in his possession.
"The numbers also corresponded with the num
bers sent to the Detective Bureau the night be
fore, the police Bay.
In the prisoner's pockets, the police say, they
found a tax certificate and a pune-h which is
need to cancel stamps. Freeman said: "I am
shocked at the Idea of my arrest. 1 have done
nothing."
TO ISSUE BIG STOCK.
Chicago, Milwaukee $ St. Paul to
Put Out $25,000,000.
The directors of the Chicago. Milwaukee & St.
Paul Railway Company decided at their meeting
yesterday to Issue to stockholders of record August
29 practically all the J25.000.000 treasury stock, the
issuing of which was authorized in 1903 for ex
tending the road through to the Pacific Circulars
will be sont to the stockholders describing the pur
poses and method of the new issue. Common stock
at par, to the value of 23 per oent of their present
holdings, la to be iasuod to tba stockholders. It had
been understood that the management contemplated
issuing $25,000,000 stock and J25.000.000 convertible
bonds.
At present the St. Paul's outstanding stock
amounts to $58,183,900 common and $49,654,400 pre
ferred. Contracts for the extension work, expected
to cost from t50.000.000 to $75,000,000. were let last
fall. It was at that time that the Issue of the $50.-
O^O.OOO stocks and bonds was contemplated, and the
nnnouncement yesterday that only half that amount
had been authorized suggested tho likelihood of
some changes In the plans for extension to file
ooast. Nothing 1 along that line could be learned
definitely, but in railroad circles the opinion wuia
advanced that perhaps some arrangement 'was In
contemplation by which the Bt. Paul people) would
find it unnecessary to build as much road as had
been counted on at first, being permitted to use
the tracks of somo other line. The Union Pacific
end the Northern Pacific were cited as lines where
this course might be followed.
BUILDIXG IN
Hardware, Plumbers' Material and
Skilled Mechanics Needed.
The California Promotion Committee, which was
organized in ISO 2to glvo publicity to the resources
and to promote the settlement and development of
California, has. In view of the interest now being
taken in California affair* because of the San Fran
cisco disaster, opened an Eastern Bureau In this
city, under tho management of Colvin B. Brown.
The executive committee of the organization la
composed of twenty-two of the best known business
men of the states, representing Important financial,
commercial and Industrial enterprises, while the
advisory committee, which is somewhat larger. In
cludes the Governor of the state, the presidents of
the University of California, and the Leland Stan
ford Junior University, such state officials as the
State Mineralogist, Horticultural Commissioner and
State Forester, and representatives of all the rail
way companies doing business in California and all
the steamship companies operating from its ports.
It will be seen that it is a substantial, and should
be an effective, organization, and that information
furnished by it should be trustworthy. The first
Instalment of news of this character which has
come to hand is a summary of the status of the
building operations In San Francisco for the week
ended August 11. which Is as follows:
When the fire came to San Francisco there were
120,000.000 feet of lumber in the yards of the city, and
50,000,00) feet of this was burned. Immediately after
the lire several shiploads came Into port, and a
raft containing 8,000,000 feet was towed down from
the Columbia Kivtr, and is now being broken up In
Mission Bay. In the Oakland yards. Just across
the bay, there are about 30,000,000 feet, which can
be delivered In San Francisco on two days' notice.
Hundreds of cars loac «l with lumber are now in
the freight yards waiting to be unloaded, and two
of the largest rafts ever built axe being made ready
for towing to San Francisco in the Columbia River,
and will reach here within the next thirty days.
Structural steel for permanent buildings is yet
In marked demand, but what orders have been for
warded to the Eastern foundries are being readily
tilled, and the manufacturers say there will be no
delay in sending forward all that is required.
In builders' hardware and plumbers' supplies
there is a shortage, owing to the freight blockage,
which has tied up many care of these supplies.
I>ealors arc selling direct from the curs, instead of
waiting to have the goods transferred to their tem
porary stores and warehouses. It is estimated by
dealers that there will be an ample supply of
those materials for all purposes now as rapidly as
they are wanted.
For foundation work the supply of crushed stone
is equal to the demand. The quarries and rock
crushers in the vicinity of San Francisco have »
daily capacity of between 6,000 and 7,000 cubic yards.
For all sorts of conccte work, now this supply will
be ample.
Cement, which enters largely Into all permanent
construction now, is in plentiful supply for Im
mediate demand, and it la estimated that with tho
several cemont works in California working night
and day, as they are now doing, together with aov
eral ships en route from Europe, loaded with ce
ment, and due to arrive this month, the market will
be fully able to meet all calls.
Brick shows no shortage. The brick plants In
and nbout San Francisco have ample capacity to
turn out all that will bo needed, with the exception
of glazed and facing brick, which is shipped in
from tho East. It is estimated that the demand
for brick will reach 1.000,000 a day by September 1.
The va«t Quantities of brick from the walls of the
burned buildings la being utilised, and it is clalmeS
I that the heat of the fire simply Increased their
I durability. , M -<
The .supply of skilled mechanics is far below the
demand. In tho building trades there is a scarc
ity in nil department*. Wages far above th«
minimum »«cule are being paid, in some Instances
going as liK'h as $8 a day. The minimum scale is
the basis of employment, but the demand for good
.workmen Is so great that much higher rates are
being paid ull over the city. The latest estimate
of men doing reconstruction work places the num
ber at thirty thousand. Of those twenty-three
thousand are skilled mechanics belonging to the
building trades. There Is an espeoial shortaco In
plasterers, bricklayers, carpenters, bridge and
structural ironworkers, gas and electric fixture
hangers, architectural Ironworkers, cabinetmakers,
sheet metal workers and elevator constructors.
According to estimates of contractors who are
figuring on work to bo dona In reconstruction and
repair of buildings about $8,000,000 will be expended
in a very short time on this work alone. Plans for
eighteen new Claws "A" buildings have been com
pleted mid the structures will go up as soon as men
and material e*n be obtained. Fourteen other
Class "A" buildings are Jbelng planned for imme
diate construction. . .- .- .
