THAT ALTON SALE.
President Blackstone Issues a Sur
prising Circular Letter.

pTising Circular Letter.
Chicago, Feb. ST. b. Blackstone,
president Of the Chicago & Alton road,
issued q circular letter to the stock
holders today, which is likely to create
a sensation in railroad and financial
circles. The circular win accompany
that sent out by J. J. Mitchell, submit
ting to the vote Of stockholders the
proposition 10 sell the road to j syndi-
cate at SIS a share fer the common,
and $500 for preferred stock. While no
positive advice is rendered the stock
holders in Mr.. BlackSCOne'S circular, no
one can read il without being convinced
that the writer is bitterly opposed TO
the adoption OF the proposition. From
the beginning the negotiations, II IS
said. have been carried on in opposition
10 Mr.. BlackstOne'S views ana wishes.
It was Ar. Biackstone's vote that
prevented the sale Of the Chicago & Al
ION to the Kansas City, PIttsburg q
Gulf road. The present proposition may
be more favorable from several points
of view, but il apparently still falls
short OF being what, in Mr.. Black
stones opinion, would be fair TO all the
stockholders OF the Chicago & Alton.
In the circular issued today Mr..
Blackstone points out that the road has
been through bout the whole period of
dividends. and that the earnings at the
present time would justify the directors
in paying 5 per cent. but due considera-
ton for the physical condition of the
road has induced them to pursue the
conservative policy of reserVing large
amounts for its Improvement. The cir
cuiar further deals with the fact that
the bona issue OF the road viii mature
in less than three years, and can be re-
funded for less than one-half of the
present rate OF interest, standing offers
having been received for the full
amount required to carry through this
plan.
When that is done there viii not only
be a reasonable probability, but Il GER
tainty that the property if managed as
it has been, viii then be able TO nay

If certain concessions are made that

terms with the Rio Grande and the

ment was ordered printed, and after
the executive officers of the various
roads have suggested such changes as
they deem necessary, another meeting

whole.
