New York July Exchanges whic h

executive and administrative depart
ment of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad are about to be concluded by
the dissolution of the voting trustee
ship. This latter has undergone
several changes in the last year and

Wall street today and substantially
confirmed the voting trustees decided
during the day TO restore the property
TO the shareholder early in Septem-
Der. The property was turned over
by the receivers on July /, 1899, to
the voting trust, which was to con
tlnue for five years, or until July /,
1904. The voting trustees, however
had it>in their discretion to terminate
the trust and deliver the stock to the
shareholders at any earlier date than
the period named.
The Pennsylvania Railroad has so
strongly entrenched itself i'll possession
of the Baltimore and OHIO that any
necessity of the continuing the voting
trust has ceased to exist. Last year
S. M. Provost and John p. Green en-
tered the directorate and more recent
" James MacCrea and Samuel Rea
supplanted j. j. Hill and Norman b.

more and OHIO was in January last
given as SIC, 900, 600 preferred, while
the Northern Central, a subsidiary
Pennsylvania Railroad Company held
81, 600, 600 preferred stock in addition.
Since that time it has been under.

There is more money in the coun-
try to-day than there ever was be-
fore. thanks to the financial policy
Of the Republican party, and be-
cause of the same policy it is better
money than we ever had before. AT
no time in the history Of the United
States was all the money of the
country Of such equal and exact in.
Interchangeable and exchangeable
value as it is now. Bank bills,
government notes, gold and silver
certificates, gold and silver coins
are all OF them as good as gold, yes
as good as the finest gold,
From the first month of the extra
session of congress called by Abra-
ham Lincoln, and tor each and ev-
cry month since, up to the close of
October, 1907, that the government
has been under Republican control,
our circulating medium has increas-
ed day by day, month by month,
and year by year, so that from a
circulation OF less than SIS per
head it has been increased 10 nearly
$40 per head, and what is more, the
more the currency has increased per
capita the more valuable it has be-
come, so that while perhaps the SIG
per head had a purchasing power of
So or $40, the SAG per head has a
full purchasing power of SAG.
What is more, there has been no
let up in this increased expansion
and value, except under the Demo-
cratic policy that Cleveland tried so
hard to prevent in his financial poll

of free trade to produce, it during

View it as you may, the financial
policy of the Republican party has
been a success, and so has its tariff
policy, and its commercial policy,
and its war policy, and its naval pol.

in fact everything it has ever under.
taken has been a success, hence Inc
