 dends, $1, ,560, 900; surplus, $SS, 719; expendi-
 tares for construction, $2, 146, ,4OS. The re port says:
 ''The constantly increasing traffic of the
 company had outgrown existing facilities ! and large expenditures have already beer
 made to meet pressing requirements. A stil
 larger outlay will become necessary in tho
 immediate future to meet the public demand for the best service. After the completion oi
 the bridge now building by the Stoningtor I road at New London, double track upon | part if not the whole of the Shore Line will
 be necessary. The New Ysrk division needi I four tracks as soon as they can be provided ! Grade crossings must be abolished as fast ai } practicable. Passenger terminals an Harlen River must be improved, even at great ex , pense. But the company should not bt
 called upon to furnish these improvement I by adding to it's debt. It seems wise to pro- | an increase of capital stock from time tc time as the money is needed"
 I This last sentence is important. It means
 that the stockholders will be allotted new
 stock at par to an amount sufficient to pay for the improvements mentioned, and in an
 ticipation of this allotment the old stock has
 already risen to 235.
