PERFECT DISSOLUTION PLAN
Union Pacific's S. P. Stock May Not
do to U. P. Stockholders.
SO SAYS WALL STREET PAPER
frobithlr Will Be Offered to 9. I.
Stockholders Would fean V.
P. Tint tn Bay Central
Pavel fie.
So far the street has considered that the
suthtlon of thn Union and Southern Pa
clflo problem was buried under a inns?
of complications arid threats of litigation.
It has been the consensus of opinion that
It would take months to evolve a plan.
"The plan Is already evolved. There la
Is a possibility of moderate rights on
Southern Pnclflo stock. There Is no like
lihood that Central Pacific will be sold or
ovon leased to Union Pacific. There Is
no reason to expect litigation, therefore
over tho selling price ot Central Pacific
and the distribution of Union Pacific's
holdings ot Southern Pacific stock will
probably be achieved without litigation
ns to the rights of Union Pacific pre
ferred. "Rather than distribute Its J12e.6S,00
Southern Pacific stbek to Union Pacific
stockholders as a dividend and ask the
court to approve a plan which might In
volve long litigation over the rights of
Union Pacific preferred stock. Union Pa
cific will probably offer Its Southern Pa
cific stock to Southern Pacific stock
holders, the offering to be underwrlttrn
by a syndicate. This would not only ob
viate litigation but would ylld Union Pa
cific at least $10,000,000 cash arid solve tho
high cost ot money problem for Union
Pacific for some time to come. This
money would be gradually turned Into thn
proporty to the equal benefit of the pre
ferred and common stockholder.
.Solution Keeuis Probably.
This solution Is much more llkuly
than that Union Padflo will sell Its
Southern Patiflo stock to a syndicate,
although that might be done and would
have the same result aa regards Union
Pacific's treasury and escapo from high
money and litigation. That the Southern
Pacific company will be asked to pur
chase and retire this SUC,6H),0CO block of
Its' own1 stock Is not a plausable sugges
tion as Southern Pacific would have to
finance the purchase through sale of
bonds, it would increase tho oompany'H
capitalization and at thn rate at which
bonds now soil the annual charges on
the larger amount of bonds would bo
greater than the S per cent annual dlvl-
den on the lesser amount of stock. That
the Union Pacific's Southern Pacific
stock might be given to the Southern Pa
cific company hi exchange tor Its Central
Pacific stock Is a reasonable suggeeUon

Offer to S. P. Stockholders.
Offer of the Union Pacific's holdings of
Southern Pacific stock to Southern Pa

move suggests that Including tho rights
of holders of the tftl.lM.SlO Southern Pa
cific convertible bonds the IIW.650.000
Southern Pacific stock held by Union Pa
cific would be offered to the holders of
the equivalent of 2ftSAOO,000 Southern Pa
clflo stock, or In the ratio of about -50
Der cent of their present holdings. Wer
the stock offered at par the rights at th
