UNWISE FINANCIERING
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT OF LAKE
ERIE & WESTERN CRITICIZED.
Trouble Caused by the Opening of
Lake Navigation, Rates Being Re-
duced, but No Secret Cutting.

The United States Investor In its current
Issue publishes the annual report OF the
Lake Erie & Western and then criticises
somewhat severely its financial manag e-
ment the last few years. The Investor says:
ut must prove interesting reading for the
holders of the ST.. $4,000 preferred 6-per-cent.
stock. 1t is briefly announced that
dividends are stopped. Why? Simply an
other case of financial wrecking on the part
OF the late Calvin s. Brice and his allies.
Last October the Investor produced an inn
partial report OF the condition of this road
at which time It's preferred stock tumbled
ten points, and occasioned some furry in
the street The cause was then given and
still exists. 1t has been evident for some
time that the 5-per-cent. dividends declared
we're not earned. but were being paid from
bond issues, and the deficit covered by a
system OF bookkeeping not unknown TO some
of the Eastern roads. When the Pittsburg
Akron g. Western (now the Northern Ohio
was purchased. Ii was the beginning of the
end. This road was purchased at 81, 300 900
by Brice, and to unload II on the Lake Erie
& Western he capitalized 1T at s4.2300oo.

guaranteeing the interest on the bonds. This
deal netted some one good round sum, but
the credit of the Lake Erie & Western suf-
fered tremendously by 1t. The second large
obligation Is loan of s4.5oo.0oo. borrowed
by this company for the purchase of the
second mortgage bonds Of the Pittsburg &
Western Railway Company. OF this
amount $2.0o.00 have been called in. For
seven years Lake Erie * Western has aver
aged 1896 per mile per annum for mainten-
once Of way. against 1888 for all roads in
Ohio. Indiana and Michigan in 1896. and
$40 per mile for Illinois. Iowa. Wisconsin
and Minnesota, the average of the former
group being increased over the latter on
account of double tracks. The proper main
tenance of Lake Erie & Western should
surely be as much as other roads in the
same section Of the country. The operating
statistics make a good showing. IL is not
improbable that Lake Erie & Western will
before long be taken into the Vanderbilt
system and be built up TO dividend-paying
road"

OF II cents. or 315 cents below the tariff. As

simply that they started out little earlier

opening of navigation TO haul several thou
