New York, Nov. 17.-At the directors
no decision was arrived at in regard to ac-
cepting the proposition of the local bank
ers to practically give up control of the
property in return for the payment of the
floating debt and providing other cash.
Two other meetings were held without
arriving at any conclusion, and the meet
ings were adjourned until tomorrow. when
il is believed that Il decision will be
reached. During the day numerous con
ferences were held between the various in
terests, including Blair & Co., ~ r. Ryan,
the Laden Burg, Thalman & Co, syndicate
which is, it is said, the Rock Island inter
est, and the Williams Interests represent
ed by T. SHELTON Williams and j. William
Middendorf Various plans were discussed
and it WAS semi-officialy stated that in
the end the offer OF Blair & Co. and Mr..
Ryan is likely to be accepted.
Il was stated that only 30 per cent of
the stock 80 far has not signified it's inten-
ton of accepting the Ryan Blair PROPOSE
ton. this being the Rock Island interest,
which wants the road itself.
The Ryan-Blair syndicate does not pro
pose to deal with the 'Ladenburg syndi-
cate, and it remains for the directors to
accept the proposition offered or make
terms with such opposition as develops.
At the office of the Seaboard Air Line
lit was stated tonight that the directors
would meet again tomorrow. Inasmuch
rs 20 per cent OF the entire stock has ap-

MUCH INTEREST IN OUTCOME HERE.
News from the conference between the
directors of the Seaboard Air Line Rail
way and Thomas F. Ryan. Blair & Co..
and their associates in the deal was await
ed with much interest in local financial
and railroad circles yesterday.
Mr.. S. Davies Warfield. who is said to
be with the Ryan-Blair interests. and Mr.
il. William Middcndorf, went on from
Baltimore to attend the conference
1t is understood here that. if consum-
mated, the deal will mean the passing Of
the control of the Seaboard from John
SHELTON Williams and ]. William hidden
dorf and their associates to the Ryan
Blair interests. 1t is understood that the
latter interests offer to furnish sufficient
money to cover the floating debt of the
road, said to be 81, 900, and 81 600, 900
additional for the purpose of providing ad-
ditional terminals and equipment and for
completion Of the line between Birming-
ham and Atlanta The floating debt was
practically all incurred for these purposes,
and the work is still incomplete
l: is also believed shat if! the deal goes
through it must provide for canoeing the
option given by the Williams Middendorf
interests TO the Rock Island interests on
10000 shares Of stock of the Seaboard.
Some time ago it exercised the option on
$4,000 shares, and the option on the others
has not expired.
Local interests generally hope that the
deal will go through and Ryan get con-
troll instead of the Rock Island The stock
was not dealt in yesterday.
