EARLING MAY STOP WORK
But St, Paul Road Directors Defer
Action for Two "Weeks.
NEW YORK. May 10. At & meeting of
the executive committee of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway yesterday
the question of discontinuing work on the
road's Pacific Coast extension was dis
cussed, but after the meeting one of the
officers of the road said that no decision
had been reached.
President Earltng's attitude on postpon
ing the work on this new line, for which
100,000,000 of new stock was Issued last
December, Is understood to be that it
would be well to postpone the work if it
can be done without embarrassment and
without incurring too much loss due to
the shutting down of work of so great a
magnitude. It will be left to the direc
tors, however, to decide whether the
work will be suspended.
The next regular meeting of the full
board will be held on the last Thursday
of this month, and it is probable that
the question will be decided then.

PRODUCE BETTER STEEL RAILS
Railroad Men and Manufacturers
Combine to Find Defects.
NEW TORK, May 10. An important
step has been taken by manufacturers of
steel rails and the railway companies to
bring about an Improvement In steel
rails, thus giving better security against
defects. This movement results from the
criticisms of railroad experts concerning
the general durability of steel rails. It
has been maintained that breakage has
been frequent of recent months, and
that there is a deterioration In the prod
ucts. Whether this is due to the Intrinsic
quality of the ores, to the processes of
manufacture or the Immense strain of
growing tonnage Is an open question.
With a view to reconciling the divergent
views, a committee of experts has been
appointed by the American Railway As
sociation, the railways and the manu
facturers being represented. Judge El
bert H. Gary, chairman of the United
States Steel Corporation, said today con
cerning this committee:
The manufacturers of steel rails and rail
road companies both realize that conditions
relating to railroad operations have ma
terially manged and that it Is desirable to
use every practical precaution against ac
cident. Everv suggestion for Improvement
will be (.onsldered and It Is believed that a
standard of excellence that should not be
questioned will be evolved.

Bankers Believe Harriman
Scheme Best Divisible.
WILL BONDS MEET NEEDS?
Some Fear Flotation Will Not Cover
all Requirements, but Harriman
Declares That It Will Be Suf
ficient for One Year.
NEW TORK, May 10. (Special.) The
financial community was still somewhat
divided today in Its views upon the new
Harriman stock and bond Issues, but the
banking element quite generally agreed
that the method taken of financing the
company's requirements was the best
that could be devised. v Those who viewed
the arrangement adversely took the
ground that the present flotation would
not cover the full financial requirements
of the Harriman system and that a fur
ther issue would have to be resorted to
later in the year in order to take up the
notes given to the Pennsylvania by the
Union Pacific In connection with the pur
chase of Baltimore & Ohio and other
stocks.
Mr. Harriman. however, specifically
stated last night that the present pro-

posal sale of securities would take care
of the financial needs of the system for
a year at least, and the supplemental
statement issued by the Union Pacific
Railroad Company today describing in
detail the new bond issue and pointing
out that there was no cause for worry,
contained words to the same effect.
Arrangements are being made for the
formation of an underwriting syndicate
to take up whatever portion of Union
Pacific bonds not subscribed for by the
shareholders.
A -supplementary statement giving some
further details of the financing and clean
ing up of a few misunderstood points was
made public today by a Union Pacific
Railroad Company, as followac
"Of the increase of $100,000,000 of the
common capital stock of the company,'
recommended by the board of directors,
42,857.143 will be reserved to be issued
only in converting $75,000,000 of converti
ble bonds. The balance of $57,142,867, as
well as any amount not required In con
verting the bonds, must, under law. In
the first Instance, be offered to stock
holders, ana no such offer is now in con
templation. "Bonds will be dated July 1, 1907, will
mature in 20 years and will be converti
ble at any time before July 1, 1917, into
common stock at 1175 a share. Bonds will
be redeemable at the option of the com
pany on July 1, 1912. or at any semi
annual Interest day thereafter, at a pre
mium of IVi per cent, upon 90 days' no
tice. In which case the privilege of con
version will terminate SO days before the
redemption date. All stockholders of
record at 3 P. M., May 29. will be given
an option to subscribe for bonds at 90 and
accrued interest to the extent of 25 per
cent of their holdings until July 10.
Twenty per cent of the face value of the
bonds Is to be paid July 10, 20 per cent
August 9 and the balance, with an ad
justment of the interest, is to be paid
September 19."
SHOULD USE HEAVIER RAILS
Gary Says Heavier Cars Cause Fre
quent Breakage.
NEW TORK, May 10. E. H. Gary,
chairman of the United States Steel cor
poration, the largest maker of steel rails
In the country, has answered the criticism
made by E. H. Harriman yesterday re
garding the quality of steel rails.
He says that rails- are manufactured
according to the express specifications- of
the railway companies, under direct
supervision of inspectors of the railroad,
who tested the rails before delivery.
Judge Gary further said:
'It is true that railmakers are receiving
complaints from railroads regarding the
breakages, with the result that steel
manufacturers are meeting railroad ex
perts for the purpose of determining
what, if anything, can be done to prevent
accidents. If rails were heavier less
would be broken. ,
In my Judgment, to meet the demands
from the heavier equipment now em
ployed by the leading railroads, a rail
weighing 110 pounds to the yard, or 110
pound rail, should be the standard heavy
rail. Instead of the 80 and 90 pound-rail
now In use.
AU of us recall that a few years ago
the heaviest rail then made was a 70 or
80-pound rail. The heaviest now made Is
either a 90 or 100-pound rail. In the equip
ment of railroads, however, the cars carry
three or four times tneir former capacity
and the engines are correspondingly
heavy." -
