looking for the action OF the Board OF Directors

oc the e. 1860 sinking fund bonds which soon ma
turc II is understood that some OF the directors
favor renewing the bonds at lower rate OF In
terost the present rate being per cent But with
the uncertainty that prevails In the centres Of
finance this Is regarded as wcll-neh impossible
although some of the directors are hopeful that II
may Ia. brought about. IT Is n fact that all the
efforts of the heads Of departments to cut down
cxpenses by dischargng men have not been par
tcuIarly fruitful In meeting the distress that pre-
walls In the treasury of the road. and something
moro radical In needed. Whether the recommends
tion that Mr. Mink will make will take the form of
a graduated reduction in wages Is something that
only the heads OF the departments know. However
the employees have made up their minds that
reduction is coming. and will accept what seems 10
be clearly inevitable.
Whether the directors will also map out a plan
for a campaign to be carried on In Washington

this Is limited at by men in position 10 know

there any prospects OF improvement at present.
