READING DECREE I
OF D HON
New York Bonds
Considerabfo Diversity of Opin
ion When tho Court's Order
Is Effootive
When did the decree of dissolution of
the Heading Company take effect?
That is n question whlrli "was brought
up In the financial dlntrlct by the sen
ior member of n well-known banking
and brokerage concern. It was argued
that it It became effective the moment
it was announced by the Supreme Court.
It raises a very interesting point. This
banker said that the' preferred stock
provisions of tho original agreement
provide :
The neadlng Company reserves the
right to redeem at anr time either or
both classes of its preferred stock at
par In cash It allowed by law. The
preferred and common stocks having
equnl voting power i!J:S in liquidation
or dissolution ot the corporation will
share equally in pro rata distribution
of the assets.
If, it was argued, the decree of dis
solution took effect immediately and
not .at some future period, it vould be
evident that tho Reading Company had
not heretofore during itB existence exer
cised its right to redeem cither or both
rlntivpK n( Its nreferred stocks in cash :
Hint now the liolderH of these stocks
can step in and demand their pro rata
share of the company's assets.
It could not be said that optimism
was nt a premium in tKo financial dis
trict vMterHav. There was nothing in
the trend of the stock market to croato
such a spirit either. There seemed to
be nothing new to talk about among
bankers or brokers, so thnt conversa
tion drifted as a rule to a rehash of
what has been in the air for soveral dajs

THE
PHILADELPHIA
NATIONAL -
nnst.
There were some brokers who believed
there might be some trouble In the
ranks of labor on Saturday, May 1, hut
a majoritv were inclined to think thut
recent strikes, which have proved abor
tive from labor's standpoint, have
cooled the ardor of the radical element
and strengthened the bold of the con
servatives, and for that reason they
don't anticipate nny trouble.
Tn the meantime, they concede the
possibility of trouble will mnkc for u
declining market till the danger is past.
There are almost as many opinions
as to how the segregation of the Head
ing and affiliated properties will bo
brought about, and about nsmany con
sider it a simple matter as those who
maintain it is exceedingly complicated.
One of the latter said that such a de
velopment has been looked for for many
years past, and it would be very strange
if the men composing the boards of di
rectors had not anticipated what is to
be done and laid their lines accordingly.
He said, in his oplniou, any statements
by outsiders ns to what is, and whnt is
not going to be done is pure guesswork,
nnd until the plans are announced nt
temtfts to unravel the riddle is a wnste
of time.
Speaking of other roads whose coal
properties are likely to be segregated
following the Supreme Court decision.
tmtuhiv th( rittsburc 1 ami v est tr-
ginla, he said, as far as lie could see the
cases were not at all parnllcl to the
Itendlng and that thnt company would
not be called upon to segregutc unless
it would be done voluntarily.
Uond houses have been complaining
recently of a gcnernl dullues". Houses
interested in two new issues offered
v.,inlfiv nM tlmt tlipv had a .number
of sales nnd several inquiries about them
during the forenoon.
The bond situation, may be summed
up bv saying that, outside a demand
during the past few days for railroad
bonds which nrc being sold on n t! per
cent basis, the market is dull. Little
activity is expected till about the middle
of May in many quurtcrs.
Tho maunger of n. lnrgc bond nnd in
vpstment house said that there are still
I mnnv undigested reinnnuta of Ihmh'S
.hanging over. He believed that the
prominence being gien lo the Heading
tllfsolulimi will have a favorable cuVrt
on railroad I10111N in general by calling
attention to that clas of securities.
A pnrlner of nn old established houe
remarked that it it nearly time Hint
something should be done foj- many
publif service corporations, especially
tractions. He meant remedial legis
lation, as he maintains some of them
are in n bad condition nnd need as
much sympathy and assistance ns the
rnilrods. n

wliv nothing hns been done toward
car'rving nut thnt provision of his will

Wymnn. an eccentric millionaire
whose "closeness" was notorious in
northern New Rngland. died ten years
ngo and to the surprise of ever) boil v

He directed Ills trustees to expend
"such sum ns inv their judgment mav

of my family are buried."
The W.vmau burial ground is nn ob

Trenton, April 2f. Musterinc sufii
rlent votes, Itepiibllcnns in the House,
before adjourning last night, passed the
Camden bridge and Hudson funnel bill
with the dlreet tax clause inserted by
the Senate. The vote was 31 to 17. Mr.
Ilarrett made a hard fight against the
passage nnd predicted its defeat nt inc
polls.
(Jovernor Kd wards had announced he
would veto nny bill rontnlning the di
rect tax provision, a fnct which' made
the House Republicans unwilling to ac
cept the bill In Its amended form.
Governor Kdwards made it finnl ap
peal to the LegMaturc for affirmative
netion to relieve the housing situntion in
the state and for legislation guaran
teeing equitable rates by public utility
corporations.
In his appeal for housing legislation
he suggested passage of Assemblymnu
liowcn's bill authorizing municipalities
to erect houses and lease or sell them to
tesldentfi of the municipality. The bill
parsed tho House but railen of passage
in -the Senate. In his message the
governor said :
"1 notice trom the .recorri of the
Legislature that litrV or nothing has
been done toward passing laws which
might, in some degree, at lenst, relieve
the housing situntion. It seems to me
that honest nnd Industrious people who
fipd themselves with no roofs over their
hc.ad.s may well indulge in a feeling of
unrest and dissatisfaction with the gov
ernment which is so impotent to deal
with their needs There nrc some ways
in which thi., matter could be dealt with
by the Legislature that I think would
in some measure afford n decree of re
jietnnd aid our people who are labor
ing" under this very serious deprivation.
"The ennditioii is caused, as you well
liiiow. by the failure of building to keep
pact, with the needs of the people. In
other words, the supply dos not meet
tne demnnd, nnd under this situation
many unscrupulous persons nre taking
ndvantnge of the necessity of the pub
lic and advancing tho rents -to exorbi
tant figures, but I believe that some" re
lief can br- extended to the people
through the pnssnge of House bill No.
4."5. now penning in the Senate.
"This bill grants power to munici
palities to construct homes and to sell
nnd lease them to the people of such
municipalities. It l u permissive mcas
t:tr and carries n referendum feature, so
that its provisions remain inoperative
until assented to by the inters of such
muuieipnlities ns desire 1o operate under
its provisions. It may not be the best
thing to do, but at least it is a move in
tno direction ot providing a means of
meeting tho demnnd for housing accom
modations. I urge upon you that before
yet- adjourn you pass thii or some other
bill granting such powers."
