100000 900.
The Extra $15,ooo,ooo Probably
Will Be Used to Construct

Special to The Journal.
New York, May Tt is probable the
Canadian Pacific will increase it's COM
mon stock from $50, 100000 to $780,
OO0, 900, giving stockholders q right to sub
scribe for the wSsstock on terms which
will net them q fair profit. The new
money probably will be applied to build
ing extensions and it is likely there will
also be an issue. of securities to finance the
steamship deal. The issue Of new stock
with rights is expected to determine the
dividend and it is now stated that; any in
crease In the rate next fall is unlikely.
Stockholders will be given some rights in
connection with the new stock issue but
such other securities as may be issued
will in all probability be sold on terms
more favorable to the company than If
all the money were to be raised thru the
sale of S per cent common stock. At par
the rights on s15,O00.00O would be regard
ed as fairly handsome privilege.
The directors will meet some time this
month and the meeting will be very i'm :
portant as the policy Of the company on
the frontier is to be decided as well as the
question of dividends, and this matter of
financing. 1t may be stated that In Ca
madam Pacific circles here the opinion
prevails that the company sWill use Its

finance new lines, and that bonds will be
issued to be secured on the steamships

HE RIDES! IN AN AUTO.

Questioned About It He Said the
Machine Was Used to

Washington May IA $4,000 automo-s
bile for the postmaster of New York city.
bought and maintained out Of the postal
funds, and said to be chiefly used for pri-
vate convenience, is an item brought to
the attention of the department. AS word
comes here, this vehicle, with the latest
Improvements, was allowed about a year
ago by George w. Beavers, until lately
superintendent of division salaries and al
loWances.
A question has arisen in connection with
the pending investigation whether this
was a proper expenditure, but it is doubt
full If anything can now be done about it.
Asked about the red devil yesterday the
New York postmaster said it was used
to carry money from the postoffice to the
subtreasury.
This New York experience has had
much to do with the determination Of
Postmaster General Payne to investigate
all first class postoffices in the country,
at least all those whose annual receipts
are as much as half a million. This will
embrace the twin cities. The task will ex-
| tend over several months, but will prob
ably not be very arduous. Trained in
| spectors will go thru the big offices to
determine whether the equipment is in
excess or less than actual needs whether
| expenditures are reckless, and in short,
whether any of the methods Of admins
Etration can be improved.

Washington, May 7.-Representative
Jenkins Of Chippewa Falls, Wis, chair
man Of the house committee on Judiciary,
blew into Washington yesterday and this
morning has a, glowing interview III the
Washington Post. He says the recent
merger decision in st. Paul amounts to
nothing and that nothing will be done
properly to control trusts and mergers un-
til the federal constitution is amended.
This opinion is in line with a volumin-
Gus bill introduced by Mr.. jenkins last
winter in the house, which failed to get
modest and shrinking spirit evidenced by
the gentleman in the Post interview, this
paragraph is rather good:
"On the way here fell in with one of
the largest coal operators in this country,
outside of the anthracite fields. is this
the man Jenkins / have heard SO much
about?' he inquired as he came into the
car and took a seat beside me. He began
to talk at once about my reason last win
ter for calling upon congress to inquire
whether in times of exceptional necessity
the general government would not have
power to step in and condemn the coal
fields with a view to purchasing the same
and he told me that the resolution had
