REA SAYS L. I. R. R.
IS 50 YEARS AHEAD
Pennsy President, Testifying
in Minority's $28,000,000
Suit, Defends Plans.
'SAVED KKOM SCKAI'IIKAI"
Samuel Ilea, president of the Penn
sylvania Uitllroail, testified before Su
preme Court Justice I.elinmn yesterday
in u suit brought by Dick Hros. & Co.,
the Stock Kxchnngo tlrm, In behalf of
the minority stockholders of tho Long
Island Railroad to ncover 128,000.000
from Mr. Ufa and other directors of the
lionff Inland who arc also olllcliilM of
the retmtytvnma. Jle said that ho
never found any conlllct between his
duties as picsldent of tho Pennsylvania
and director of tint Ixrng Inland. The
minority stockholders rontend that the
ynst expenditures made by tho Iaiiik
Inland In recent yearn were really In the
Intercut of the Pennsylvania. In his tes
testimony President Itca said:
"Ah I wan a director of both roads
you may lent nssiited that whenever I
attended a meeting of the directors of
tho Long Inland company I voted and
acted for tho best Interest of nil the
stockholders and not for any particular
Broup of stockholders. Cor many years
before tho successful electrification of
railroads within commuting distance of
the large cities the. Pennsylvania Hall
road sought an entrance Into the heart
of New York city, realizing that to
compcto wllh the New York Central
pome such terminal within the city was
absolutely necessary.
First Had llnilson Br III Be IMan.
"The Pennsylvania first wanted to
eome across tho much talked of Hudson
Illvcr bridge, which was before the elec
trification of roads was an assured suc
cess. As soon ns practicable the Idea Df
tube connections Into New York was car
ried out. Those tube connections will
eventually be Just as profttahle to thr.
Ixmg Island as they are proportionately
to the Pennsylvania1 Hallroad.
"The Mistake the minority stock
holders make Is In supposing that a road
can remain stationary. The directors In
spending the lIMOO.Onn which thj
minority shareholders think Is Innulll
clently remunerative were planning at
Itant fifty years nlio.cd as all good rail
road directors ought to do. It wa only
'a question of time when the Improve
ments would have had to be made or the
leong Island would have been relegated
to the scrap heap."
Mr. Ilea testified that he made an .ln
apectlon trip over the Iong Island when
the Pennsylvania first got control and
found the road "very much run down."
"It wan what we call 11 local road,
tie said. "Thr toad was not paying ex-
penses, It hail little credit and tratllc
was very uncertain. During the Hum
mer months the trafllc was large, hut
during the remainder of tho year It was
light. .In making our Improvements we
picserved all the local business of the
road, which was very beneflcl.il."
Home Testimony Mtrlckrn Out.
Mr. Rea testified that the Long Island
road ulwayn luid a "free hand" In deter
mining all quest "nns, but on objection by
1. Iiflln Kellogg, counsel fur the plain
tiff, the court struck out this testimony.
Tho court remarked that while the road
might have had u free hand, the same
might not have been true of the di
rectors. "Kverythlm; that related to the upend
ing of money was fully discussed b'forc
We took action," said Mr. Urn. "Thfc
Improvements we made at Jamaica were
the salvation of the coinp-.iny There ha.1
luwn rnveittm nf ni-op II, OOII Anil In fli'. 1
,.1, J. V . ;,it ,.V thl i.,,., ,u . ' ' ,
years as a rtsult of the Jam.ilcii Im
provement."
Why was so much money spent?''
"It Is general In railroad affairs to
look Into tin- future and deal with future
reeds In order that we may not be found
tinprepaied when the Improvements nro
nnlly needed," said Mr Ilea, "It was
for this reason that the Kast New York
and Ilay Itldge Improvement were made.
They, will I valuable assets In fho
future."
The case will go on to-day.

REFINED SUGAR PRICE
SOARS TO 7.10 CENTS
Hnw Mnrkct for Spot Product
Also Advances 24 1-2 Points
to 6.30 Cents.
Refined sugar yesterday moved an
other step upward In the rise which has
followed the resumption of heavy foreign
buying In the local market about a
month ago. Local refiners quoted It at
T.40 cents, a rise of .10 and. .15 cents a
pound, while Philadelphia refineries
rained their prices to 7.50 cents, equal
ling the record high which was reached
In August, 1914. Tho price of refined
sug.ir a year ago was 5.90 cents a pound.
At tho same time, the raw market
for Fpot sugar advanced M Vi points, to
fi.39 cenUi ii pound, a record price for
tho year and only 14 'lower than tho
record high registered In August, 1914,
j .Some 14,000 bags of April shipments
irom wunn were purcrtasco uy rentiers,
which was responsible for this rise.
While there nro plentiful utocks of raw
sugar on hand In Cuba, refiners report
that they arc unable to obtain more than
enough to keep them going because of
the dinicultles In getting freight space.
Manuel Hlonda, president of the Cuba
Cane Sugar Corporation, In a letter
which has lt en mado public by J, &
W. Sellgman for the benefit of share
holders, states that .In view of the pre
vailing price of 5 cents a pound on
sugar It Is not unreasonable to assume
that tho profits of the corporation will
exceed 120 a share on common stock
after the payment of preferred dm
(lends. It was estimated by him at the
time of the Incorporation that the earn
ings on tho properties should reach IIS
it share. Mr. Hlonda sums up the sugar
outlook as follows:
"The prospects of a continuation of
high prices for sugar during the next
season (1916-1917) aro unusually good.
The European war has cut off a large
part of the supply of the world's beet
sugar, and under no conceivable con
ditions can this deficiency be made up
by additional sowings In time for next
year s crop.
"Itegardlcss. however, of the existing
conditions, which are unusually favor
able to the Industry, Cuba can produce
sugar more cheaply than any other coun
try; It 'has an advantage In cost ot
production of at least 'j cent a pound
over any other producer. In addition,
Cuba has by treaty with the United
.States a differential of 20 ikt cent. In
Its tavor, so that, so long as there Is
a tariff duty on sugar entering the
United States, Cuba has an advantage
of that amount as against all the rest
of the world except I'orto Illco, Hawaii
and the Philippines, none of which coun
tries can compete with Cuba without a
protective duty and with nil of which
Cuba can suoeewafully compete, even
with the present duty." .

Tho continued strength In the pre

attributed In well Informed clrides to
two things. First, It Is understood In
Mome quarters that there has lieen heavy
buying of the preferred stock In the past
few days for the account of the Amefl

ond, It h reported that the preferred
and common stock holders have almost
reached an agreement .regarding the
plan for the reorganization of the com
pany. Hankers in close touch with the affairs
of the International Mercantile Marine
Company were Inclined yesterday to be
lieve the report that the American Inter
national Corporation has been buying
both the preferred and common stock with
the view of obtaining about 25 per cent,
of each class and thereby gaining repre
sentatlon ill one of the biggest of tho
shipping companies. Frank A. Vnnder
llp, chairman of the board, refused to
comment on the report estcrday.
Late yesterday It was learned In au
thoritative quarter that the American
International Corporation has succeeded
In acquiring nil tho preferred desired,

The Chamber of Commerce of the
State of New York, meeting at noon yes

adopted only one of three resolutions on
the subject of preparedness brought for

members aro In favor of greater pre

those present, headed by W. L. Saun

that Congress ought to bo guided by
military and naval cxpcits in adding to
