Louisville Property Co. Stock Ought To Be
Worth Par. Management Says.
The management of the Louisville & Nashville
Railroad Company has sent a circular to stock
holders explaining the recently declared extra divi
dend of J per cent, payable in stock of the Louis
vi:> Property Company. The circular says the
etock of the "property company ought I* be worth
par. It adds, in part:
The Louisville Property Company is a Kentucky
corporation, authorized to own and deal in prop
erty, both real and persona!, and the entire capi
tal stock, amounting to $00>t0. -was own*d by the
Louisville & Nashville Railroad Company. it held
mil, parcels or tracts of land adapted to the us^a
of the railroad company, and also owned consid
erable bodies of coal lands. located chiefly In th«
State of Kentucky. It was largely indebted to the
rsilroad company for advancements of funds.
Th* «hare« of the Louisville Property Company

lieved that, they axe reasonably worth their par
value if not more. At th.» next annual meeting of

BOCK ISLAND CHANGES BTJMORED.
Report That They Will Remedy Certain
Features in the Method of Control.
Some changes in the general plan of the Rock
Island company, the holding company for the roads
which go to make up the Hock Island system, will.
it is understood In Wall Street, be announced be
fore long. These changes -drill not bo in the way of
reorganizing the company's finances, which are de
clared to be. in satisfactory condition, but rather
along the line of remedying certain features in the
method of control.
The relationship of the various companies form-
Ing the Rock Island system is a complicated one.
and the fact that the control of the whole System
lIC3 In the preferred Stock of the holding company
has caused considerable adverse criticism. The
general opinion has been that the common stock
has no voting power, but thai hi erroneous. The
bylaws provide for thirteen director?, of whom
seven are elected by the* preferred stockholders.
Pr the other six directors the common stockholders
have the privllcga of voting, but. through cumula
tive voting, the preferred stockholders may elect
one or more of these six minority representatives.
The control of the board is, of course, held by
the preferred stockholders, and it Is this feature
which Is likely to be somewhat modified in the con
templated changes. It was said yesterday that, the
common stockholders would benefit to a considera
ble extent by the changes.

sented in evidence by Stephen C. Baldwin, counsel
for the Jenkinses.
BOROUGH BANK MAY OPEN SOON.
Outlook for Brooklyn Institution Continues
to Grow Brighter.
Henry A. Powell, one of the two receivers for the
Borough Bank of Brooklyn, declared yesterday that
the Borough Bank ought to be reopened within two
weeks.
"Conditions warrant a resumption in the imme
diate future," he said. "The assets have been
largely increased during the receivership, and much
of what has been accomplished Is due to the efforts
of Vice-President William S. Hurley."
Mr. Powell said that the only obstacle now left
to the opening of the bank was the failure of a
sufficient number of depositors to sanction the de
ferred payment plan. A prominent officer of the
bank said that the assets had been increased $1.
000 000 during the receivership, the liabilities di
minished and the collateral strength increased by
$SOO,OOO.
RECEIVER WARNS LAWYERS.
C. M. Higgins Said They Used Semi-Threats
to Hamper Brooklyn Bank Affairs.
Charles M. Higgms. one of the two receivers of
the Brooklyn Bank. issued an open letter yester
day addressed to Messrs. O'Brien. Boardrnan and
Flatt of No. 2 Rector street. Manhattan, in which
he characterizes a notice, received from them some
weeks ago as containing "intimidating warnings.,
and declares that if any further "semi-threats
are made by then he will have a "!-gal investiga
tion" made at once into their conduct.
Th» warnings sent Mr. Higgins by the New York
firm were hi regard to certain alleged transfers
of «ccount S from the book- of the Brooklyn Bank
to those of the International Trust Company. Mr.
Hlgglna declares in this letter that no such trans
fers have been made and that the authors of
the warning, made In behalf of Charles W. Hogan
and Jefferson Hogan. are pursuing an ignis fatuiis.
Mr Rigging further says that the warning from
0 : Bri»n. Boardman & Platt has seemed to have
"seriously scared" his co-receiver. Mr. Haebrouck.
•O that the latter has seemed to be "opposed even
to allowing old and undoubted depositors o the
Brooklyn to have their passbook:, on the Brook
lyn Bank written up to show their true and cor
rect balances."
The allegation that transfers were made from
the Brooklyn Bank to the International Trust Com
pany seems to proceed from the fact that a few
of the depositors of the Brooklyn Bank allowed
some of their deposits in the Brooklyn Bank to be
entered in a passbook marked "The International
Trust Company."
The following announcement to depositors or the
Brooklyn Bank was advertised by Mr. Hlggins:
Send in your old Brooklyn Bank passbooks and
have them written up to show your true balance
to date, according to the ledgers of the bank
If yon have a second passbook, marked Inter
national Trust Company." keep it as a curiosity
and memento of an attempted and illegal merger.
It has no other force or significance.

DEFENDS P. S. C.*S PLAN
Mr. Willcox's Waterfront "L" Will
Solve Eleventh Avenue Problem.
Chairman WfOeaß] defended the Public- Service
Commission yesterday against the •)'••« " Sena
tor Bax< and his associate.* in tht- Committee ■•:
Fifty who had criticised the commission's, recom
mendation for a rraterfront elevated structure to
replace the New York Central tracks in Kleventfc
avenue. He said the commission had don« all In its
power under the so-called" Saxe law.
According to Mr. Willcox, all that «•> provided
by the bill was the Investment of the Rapid Transit
Commission with power to make an agreement with
1 -1 «-- Nrw York Central for the removal of the tracks,
and in case this should not b* acorepHahfd within
a year th" Corporation Counsel was to be directed
to Ix-gin condemnation proo«T*dings "f all richts ta
the us-; of strfts. The agreement failed to be
reached Trithln th«> year pra*ld»"3 by the law, nnd
soon after th" Rapid Transit ConuntsstoO was dis
solved and the Public Service Commission took it:?
place.
Tbnt body, says Mr. Wilicox, immediately adopt
»d resolutions oak ins the Corporation Counsel to
b^gin condemnation proceedings. A largo number
of informal conferences were held before the i-f>m
missinn decided^that a waterfront elevat*d would
b* the best remedy for the Eleventh enue -■ ••
tion. ■ •
In recommending th° waterfront structure hag
good reasons, the commirsion thought, existed in
favor of the plan; fir?*, the removal from the tene
ment h<v.j!?e dl?tr>--t to » business section of the
freight road and the possibility of utilizing th- ele
vated structure for the transportation of passen
gers, thus giving much needed relief to the conges
tion in tlic subway and aiding !n the development
of Harlem and the portion of The Bronx north of
the Harlem River.
Richard Deeves, head of the contracting firm of
Richard Deeves & Bon, has written to the com
mission approving of the plan for the waterfront
elevated. He thinks it would be a great thing to
have the road run all around the waterfront, and
that it would be of incalculable benefit in improv
inK the city shipping: facilities. ' Such a road, if
built, should be under the control of the city and
open for use to all railroads entering: New Tork.
Neil Mr. Dceves's suggestion nor the commis
sion's recommendation of a waterfront elevated to
solve the Eleventh avenue situation is received
seriously by the Committee of Fifty. Charles De
Hart Brower. secretary of the committee, said yes
terday that the commission seemed to have over
looked the. fact that all around the waterfront
there exists already the best and most serviceable
method of transporting freight, namely good, deep
waterways.
"This waterfront elevated scheme Is all non
sense." he added. "I am opposed, and I know the
Committee of Fifty is, to any proposition that will
surrender the use of the streets to any railroad."
THINKS SUBWAY PROBLEM IS SOLVED.
Law Committee of Allied Real Estate In
terests Will Disclose Its Plan To-day.
While there seems to be ■ difference of opinion
as to the possib"!ty of building any more subways
until the Klsberg law is amended, the law com
mittee of the Allied Real Estate Interests thinks it
has found a solution in the passage at Albany of
certain amendments to existing legislation. The
solution, it was Intimated yesterday nt the office,
at No. €0 Wall street, will be disclosed to-day, and,
It was said, may incidentally cause a sensation.
Allan Robinson, president of the Allied Interests',
declined to make known the plans of the law com
mittee. Tie said, however, that the Public Service
Commission had don* all it could, and it was the
purpose of his organization to accelerate action on
the commission's suggestions. If-? would not dis
close the nature of the bill which the real estate
association intends to present to the legislature.
One purpose of the association is to help crystal
lize public sentiment po that" an agreement on some
route may be reached as soon as legislative action
is taken.

CORPORATION AMENDMENT FEES.
Wisconsin Decision May lose a Considerable
Sum to the State.
Madison, Wis., Feb. ».— Judge E. Ray Stevens.
of the Circuit Court of Dane County, overruled a
motion by the state to-day to quash a writ of man
damus procured by the, .Minneapolis. St. Paul &
Satilt Pte. Marie Railroad Company to compel the
Wisconsin Railroad Commission to grant it author
ity to issue 9UIMM of additional stock. The com
mission refused to grant the desired authority be
cause the railroad had not filed an amendment to
its articles of incorporation showing the action of
the stockholders in deciding to issue* the new stock.
The fee for filing such an amendment would be
$21,000. Judge Stevena holds that a railroad com
pany is not required to file an amendment show
ing its authority to issue additional Ftock. This
law the court say?, applies only to other corpora
tions. The state will appeal to the Supreme
Court. v
The ruling of the lower court is interesting, la
view of the fact that the Chicago & Northwestern
Railroad recently paid a fee of $110,010 and the
Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul one of $'.73,020 for
filing amendments to their articles of incorporation.
Other" railroad companies have also paid such fees
without protest, and they will reclaim them
through the Legislature if to-day's decision is up
held.

hold a meeting to-morrow to decide whether an ap
peal shall be made to the State Board of Railroad
Commissioners so far as the rate applies to Mas
sachusetts. It is understood* that similar action
against th* advanced rate will he taken by the
merchants of Burlington, Vt. ; Manchester. N. it,
and Portland, Me.

RELIEF FOR I'OOR SOON
Charity Organization Society Sees
Hopeful Outlook.
The Charity Organization Soci«»y. after an to*
tigation of conditions in this city, a careful enu
meration of the unemployed and of those suffering
because of the lack of employment, is confident
that decided relief will be felt by March. In the
report issued this week it is said, referring to mem
bers of labor organizations:
Of the ninety thousand union members nor M•
in the city, by far the larger number belonc to
seasonal occupations which always bring *****-
ployment at this time, of -he year. It is true that
even in these occupations the extent of unemploy
mint is enormously txagserated as compared with
last year or the year before, but at the same time.
if the members possess that foresight which th*-tr
trade training gives to them and which is probab.y
true with MM of them, even if they are out or
employment they have anticipated this event and
to a limited degree are prepared for It.
For instance, of the ninety thousand unemployed
union workmen at least titty thousand are i. .«■»•'
bers of the building and stone working trades, in
cluding the paving trades and these employing
street -labor; an additional sixteen thousand are or
the clothing and textile trades, an.i about nine
thousand are in transportation occupation.-!, In
brief, of the ninety thousand union workmen idle
in this city, approximately seventy-five thousand
belong to occupations which bring unemployment at
this time of year, but Dot, of course, to the extent
now prevailing.
It 13 further said that this seasonal nature or
unemployment is Indicated in the fact that of the
365.000 members of trade unions reporting to .the
New York State Bureau of Labor in 1905. as mar.v
as 32.000. or 5.7 per cent, were Idle in the January-
March period, while for July and September only
7.500, or but 2 p*>r cent, were out of work. The
report of the State Bureau of Labor shows that for
four years since 1901 as many as 20 to 25 per cent
of the membership of labor unions have be' idle
during January. In New York City the percentage
of unemployed members of trade organizations a:
the end of March of each year since IMI has
ranged from as low as 12 per cent in 1903 to as
high as 30.5 per cent In 1904.
In the clothing and textile trade about one-halt
of the usual number of »m ployed, or 15.000, is out
of work. This does not include the idle or non
union workers. The report to the society continue:
In brief, the facts would seem to indicate ■ sit
uation of unemployment, not in the city nlor.e but
throughout the country generally. un«*jualled hi
intensity since 1*33- although not comparable to
that period— a situation in which there are iri crease
in the number of unemployed worklrismen with
families, of the ablebodifd homeless and of the
vagrants or unemployable.
Controller Metz said yesterday that there was
no money available at present with which to start
public works and thereby relieve the unemployed.

EXTRA DIVIDEND ON C. P. COMMON.
Montreal, Feb. 10.— At a meeting of the board of
directors of the Canadian Pacific Railway Com
pany to-day a dividend of - per cent on preferred
stock and 3 per cent on common stock was de
clared for the half year ended December la. "",
payable on April 1 next, and it was also decided
that at the same time a. further sum. equal to one
half of 1 per cent, be- paid on the common stock
out of interest on the proceeds of land sales after
the payment of working expenses, fixed charges
and dividends now declared. There is a surplus
for the half year of $$,26?,«0.
