Itcportcd Thnt tho Dclnwnro nnd Jliulsou People Arc Alter tho Now York, SuMiucliiiuiiu and Western Knilwnr Wllkos-Iktrro, July 16. Tho Times pays: There has been considerable ac tively during the past week In the se curities of the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railroad company. Tho preferred stock has risen In price In the stock exchange from $20 to $33.50 a Khare, dropping off yesterday and to day to $33.50 per share. As Is always the case when there Is a sudden rise or unusual activity in any listed stock there are many rumors to account for the change. As an explanation J. C. Calhoun and P. H. Prlnce.of Doston.are said to have arranged with English capitalists for the Investment of a considerable sum in the Susquehanna, nnd "Western railroad, the plans being paid to Include an extension of the load to a connection with the Beech Creek. In this connection XV. V. Ryman, president of tho WIIkes-Barre and Kastcrn railroad, which Is operated by the New York. Susquehanna and Western Itallroad company, was seen Jiy a Times reporter this morning and asked regarding the rumor that the IWllkes-Bitrre and Eastern line la to be extended to AVllllamsport. Mr. Ryman said: "It Is simply a rumor. There Is a strong probability that such an ex tension will be made some time but there is nothing Imminent about It." "How did the rumor revive at this time?" was nsked. "Everybody," replied Mr. Ryman, "has been trying to explain the general advance in stocks and somebody put this report abroad as an explanation of the rise In our railroad stock." Mr. Ryman further said that the plan to extend tho line to Williams port Is at present as remote as It was several years ago. He said It takes much time to determine on such a big enterprise. Another report has It that the Dela ware and Hudson people are after this road. This Is an old rumor and was current about three years ago when the IWllkes-Barre and Eastern railroad Mas first opened. In support of this theory the Scran ton Tribune this morning says: "Sec ond Vice-President H. G. Young, of the Delaware and Hudson Canal company; R. S. Hayes, of New York, one of the directors; C. 11, Manvllle, superintend ent of the railroad department, and C. S. Weston, general agent of the real estate department, held a consultation In the Hotel Jerniyn last night. Messrs. Young nnd Hayes came from Albany In a special car at 9.50 o'clock p. m. They were met at Carbondale by Mr. Man vllle and in this city by Mr. Weston. All four proceeded to the Jermyn forth with and were closeted together for several hours." This morning all of these gentlemen were at Mill Creek in their private car and were going over the line of the Wllkes-Barre and Eastern railroad. There has been a very close tralllc al liance between the Delaware and Hud eon and Susquehanna and Westein roads for a number of years. A busi ness man of this city who is well posted in railroad and coal circles, in speaking of n probable closer relationship be tween these two coal roads, told a Times man this morning that the Dela ware and Hudson coal, at the present rate of mining, would not last longer than ten or fifteen years and that be fore that time expired It would have to look for additional traffic elsewhere. The alliance with the New York, Sus quehanna and Western would be but natural and good business policy, as it would give the Delaware and Hudson nn entrance to New York harbor, and the construction of the WIlkes-Barro and Western, for which several sur veys have already been made, would b.-Ing considerable soft coal traffic and by possible railroad connection in tho western part of the state, form a link in the shortest and best route from Chicago to New York. i'Depend upon it," said he, "tho Wllkes-Barre and Eastern will sooner otyu.ter be extended west and the Dela ware .and Hudson will long before that contrb the Susquehanna and Western." It'muy be mentioned In this connec tion Ujnt tho next nnnual meeting of tho NeVYork, Susquehanna and West ern wlUtako place the first Thursday In September, BOYxJNSTANTLY KILLED.
