NO IMMEDIATE
CHANGE EXPECTED
Id Officers Of B. & 0. Rail-

Pennsylvania Railroad Had Expected
an Increase Of Directors Repre-
SentiOg lis Great Interests

Philadelphia, May 14.-That there
will be no immediate changes in the
officers OF the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company, unless some Of tn1se
in high position retire voluntarily. was
verified by a vice-Iresident OF the Penn
sylyania Raihcad Company yesterday
lie discussed the various runners rela-
tive to the two companies, and spoke
unreservedly. lie said: while We are
in control Of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad in ameasure, IL was not secured
by a downright purchase Of stock. In
addition to our own directors, others CT
our friends in the board are favorably
impressed with our policy relative to
the conduct of the road, and they
stand with us. We now have four di-
rectors Of the Pennsylvania railroad in
the Baltimore and Chic beard These
are S. NJ. Provost and John p. Green,
Who we're members before, and Samuel
Rea and James McCrea, who were elect
ed last week. It has net been de-
cided what shall be done in the fuM-e
"Mr. McCrea is in Europe and Mr.
Rea will not act until the former re-
turns from abroad. We had for some
time expected to get this additional
membership Of two in the beard. but
I do not think il will be increased
not for the present at least. The ether
interests in the directory desire TO have
their ideas carried out and they have
a right to- because they have invested
large sums in the company. There are
some very strong men in the hoard
Edward r. Bacon and Charles Steele
Of ]. p. Morgan & Co.; Edward II. Har.
riman. Jacob H. Schid, OF New York
and Norman B. Ream, of Chicago. are
among the directors.
VOTING TRUST STILL IN EXIST

ut should net be forgotten that b1tl
preferred and common stock are helC
in a voting trust, which has three years
4 yet to run. The trustees have th'
power of saying who shall be directoIl
and who shall be the officers. On yes
1.-THE voting trust can be dissolved befor
the time set fer its expiration, but w
have not heard of their intention TO re
sign. AS TO Mr. Cowen retiring from
the presidency. we have not learned o
an expressed intention in that regard
He may have such a thought, though. II
case he should retire, l do not thinl
i his successor would be Mr.. LOree, o
the Pennsylvania railroad, as that gen

In fact. there must be considerable
consideration given to Baltimore ans
