AFFAIRS OF DRESSER & CO.
Examination That Has Bearing on
the ShipbuiIding Case.

NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-The hearing in the
bankruptcy proceedings in the firm of
Dresser & Co.. of which Daniel Leroy Dres-
ser. formerly connected with the United
States Shipbuilding concern, was president,
was resumed to-day before Referee Stanley
w. Dexter. At former hearings four wit
nesses testified that they had certified
blindly that the securities deposited for the
benefit of the creditors by promoters of
Staten island realty company, who wished
Mr.. Dresser as president, were worth $780,.
COO. whereas at the time of deposit they
knew nothing of the value of the stocks
and bonds contained in closed package
to c. W. Youngman, president of the cor
poration finance company Mr.. Dresser was
the first witness.
Mr.. Dresser told of the oyertures to him
to become president of the realty COM
pany because, he was told, his name would
lend strength to the company, and of the
proposition to deposit SS500o in securities
TO extricate him from his financial diff
culties, regarding which he had told the
promoters he would have to consult the
receivers of his business and his creditors.
After the delivery of the securities to Mr.
Youngrnan, Mr.. dresser said, Mr.. Young
man told him he was satisfied with the GER
LITIGATION of 100000 of the securities and
that the rest undoubtedly all right.
Afterward Nj. G. Quimby, chief promoter
OF the company, gave him list of the
stocks. now known to be incorrect. Re-
sisters had been used TO aid the credit of
the realty company. Mr. Dresser said:
II have stated positively and clearly to
everybody with whom l have had dealings
in the last few years that my sisters, Mrs.
George w. Vanderbilt and Mrs. Nicholas
Brown, had nothing whatever TO do with
my business and that they never would
have. L never said they would back me in
any Of these undertakings
A number of questions were asked regard
ing Mr.. Dresser's connection with the
United States Shipbuilding Company and
the Trust Company of the Republic and
Mr.. Dresser said his failure was due to the
loss of $4,000 in the stock of the trust
company. His interest in the shipbuildng
affairs was only In connection with the
trust company. He said that in November
he had received about $4,000 each of the
common and preferred stock of the ship
building company. which he had sold at
once for 100000 and paid the money in his
business. his credit being curtailed on ac-
count OF the fall OF the trust company's
capital stock from $40 TO o. He received,
he said, about 200 bonds of the shpbuilding
company from John w. Young. TO be used
as collateral for loans. Mr.. Dresser was
excused until Nov. 4, when his examination
will be continued.

All Stockholders Now an Equal
Footing - Meeting of Federation
GLASS Company Directors.

PITTSBURG, Oct. 27-By a practically
unanimous vote of its stockholders the
United States Glass Company to-day re-
duced it's capital stock from s5.Oo0.OoO to
So, 2Oo, 600, or total reduction OF $1,s00.OO0.
OF this amount there was a wiping on, of
81 zoo. 600 of per cent. accumulative pre-
ferred stock entirely, and the rest of the
shares that were removed were common
stock. In place of this stock there was
issued $4,000 of bonds with which the
holders of the stock were to be reimbursed.
The change, while novel one in way, is
believed to have placed the company
better financial footing than ever before.
and all stockholders will be on an equal
basis.
The explanation was made public in the
form of a circular which stated: For the
purpose of enabling the company to retire
its preferred stock, an agreement has been
entered into with certain holders of the
preferred stock to have this stock surren-
dered and in exchange for 1T receive first
mortgage bonds of per cent interest, the
bonds TO be paid ut the rate of $40 for each
share Of preferred stock.
There is due on the preferred stock
seven annual dividends of per cent. and
the holders of the stock have agreed to sur
render their claims of unpaid dividends on
the following terms: The stockholders sur
rendering their stock shall receive per
cent. in cash for the stock at par value and
"a per cent. remaining in unpaid dividends
shall be divided into eighteen semi-annual
payments without interest, the first of
which shall be due not later than March ],
1904, and these payments shall be evidenced
by notes secured by mortgages securing the
bonds. OF the bonds $4,000 will be used
for paying dividends due without interest,
thus leaving only $4,000 of per cent.
bonds as fixed charges, and the interest on
this will leave fixed charges OF $4,000 an
nually.
"Of the s5,0oO.000 capital stock only about
S.000O00 was ever issued and the large pro-
portion of the common stock to be retired
Is already in the company's treasury. 1t is
said that last year the company showed
earnings of $4,000 and the prospect for the
coming year is brighter than they have
been in the past. Besides the ability for
the company to earn only last years earn
ings this year 1t will be able to pay its fixed
charges as figured out and also to pay n
6 per cent. dividend on it's outstanding

The United States Glass Company was
