THE SEABOARO AIR LINE DEAL.
Under New Regime the Seaboard
Should Develop Into the Great Fac
tor Which Its Original Promoters
Contemplated.

The Baltimore Sun says this OF the
Seaboard Air Line Railway deal and
it's probable results:
Blair & Co., Thomas F. Ryan and
T. Jefferson Coolid ge, Jr., of Boston,
agree to loan the Seaboard Air Line
Railway the money necessary to pay
Off its floating debt and to complete
the Observation-Disclosures extension.
The directors chosen are:
John Shelton Williams, Richmond,
Va.
Thomas F. Ryan, New York.
John A. Blair, New York.
J. William Middendorf, Baltimore
S. Davies Warfeld, Baltimore.
James H. Dooley, Richmond. Va.
c. Sidney Shepard, New Haven,
Conn.
J. NJ. Barr, Norfolk, Va.
Ernt Thalman, New York.
B. F. Yoakum, New York.
H. Clay Pierce, st. Louis, Mo.
Oakleigh Thorne, New York.
Norman B. Ream, Chicago.
T. Jefferson Coolidge, Jr., Boston.
Nathaniel Thayer, Boston.
The three chief interests in the road
the old management, the Ryan in
terest and the Rock Island, seem
to be equally represented on the new
board.
The advent of Mr.. Ryan, who is a
friend of the Southern Railway, will,
it is understood, create a community y
of interest in the three great South
ern systems-the Southern, the At
lantic Coast Line and the Seaboard-
and result in the abandonment OF
rate cutting and the apportionment
of all traffic
The Seaboard will, however, con-
tinue, it is declared, to be operated
as an independent line.
From the composition of the new
board of directors it is said that a
satisfactory compromise has been
reached after several days of con-
ference over the settlement of the
Seaboard affairs. No one interest
can claim a majority, and on it's face
it looks as if each interest had five OF
the Is members comprising the direc-
torate. That is, Mr.. Williams and
his friends maintain a membership OF
five; Mr.. Ryan and his friends are
given five, while Ladenburg, Thall-
man & Co., and their friends have
five.
The new members Of the board
seem to assure all the finacial back,
ing necessary fer the rounding out o1
the Seaboard system. They are cap.
italists of wealth and experience, not
alone in railroad matters, but in gen.
eral trade conditions, and with a
concert of action the Seaboard should
develop into the great factor which
it's original promoters contemplated
but which was checked by unfavor.
able developments in the money
market and the industrial situa
ton.
1t is stated by we'll informed New
York financial interests that the
most far-reaching effect of this settle
ment is the practical assurance O
peace in the Southern railroad situa
ton. Mr.. Ryan and his friends are
on the most friendly terms with hotl
the Southern Railway and the Allan
tic Coast Line managements. As
these properties, with the Seaboar6
Air Line, serve the Southern country
with transportation facilities, it cal
be set down as a reasonable certainty
that all three will hereafter work il
accord, thus establishing a sort o
tentative community of interests
that will check rate-cutting an(
other Disturbances incidental te

THE SEABOARD DEAL.

The Manufacturers Record, in COM
menting on the Seaboard deal, par
ticulars of which are given in our
news columns, says:
This brings into the Seaboard the
strongest financial combination that
has ever been associated with it, in-
cluding as it does some OF the strong
est financial, interests i'm the United
States.
A striking feature of this transac-
tion is that it marks the establish
ment Of harmonious relations be-
tween the Williams and Middendorf
interests on one side and Mr.. Ryan
on the other. who several years ago
were engaged in vigorous warfare
for the control of the Seaboard sys-
tenn, Mr.. Ryan at that time being a
large stockholder in the Seaboard &
Roanoke Railroad, the parent COM
pany. Harmony between these two
conflicting elements is now fully re-
stored, and it is understood that Mr..
Ryan consented to take part in the
necessary financial arrangements
after he had stipulated as one of the
conditions that President Williams
should remain at the head OF the
company. The result of this will be
enlarged possibilities for the Sea-
board, the preservation of the status
quo in the railway situation of the
South, and the continuation of Mr..
John Shelton Williams as president
of the Seaboard.
1t will be observed that this new
deal preserves the representation of
the st. Louis & San Francisco inter-
ests in the board with about an
eqaal representation for each of the
three elements concerned, namely,
Messrs. Williams and Middendorf and
their friends, Messrs. Blair & Co.,
Ryan and Coolidge and Ladenburg,
Thalmann & &c.
The announcement of these nego-
tiations had the immediate effect of
advancing the market value of Sea-
board stocks and the 4 per cent.
bonds. and the general feeling in
financial circles is that the deal is
most advantageous to the company.

as inclement weather continues there will

fruit situation is practically unchanged.
Apples are spelling rapidly and there is
fairly large supply remaining unsod on

started at $50 Liverpool declined to
500 for May and then shot up seven
points on Egyptian buying The advance
of three points over yesterday should
have started May about $40, but bulls
sent IN brokers and before any ore offered
cotton $50 was bid. This started shorts
who paid e.s7 and then holders turned
sellers, carrying May back IA points in no
time. This only shows the condition of
the market. 1t will. or should cause one
to avoid the selling on break There
are no indications that May will shoot
up over 10 cents again. We might have
30 or 9.95 again very easily, but until
we have evidence of a resumption of the
bull market we are still disposed to re-
gard the bull market as over. If this
view is correct August Is a sale on every
good rally. The power of the bull clique
is too strong, the stock here too small.
The season is too backward to make short
selling on a break anything but fool
hardy. But on a good upturn advantages
seem to be with the shorts Rains In the
south increase danger of floods again.
This weather is something beyond the
memory of man. If it ever clears we will
have a uuieter market But as long as
1t does not we might as well make up our
minds to a wild market with just these
fluctuations. Cover when it gets weak,
but sell August short on good bulges.
This is a high price and longs have
good big load.
