The open fight between Mr. Keene and
Mr.. Hartman over the question of divi-
dends on Southern Pacific stock has been
one of the disquieting factors in the mar
ket. 1t is always an alarming event when
the giants of the market fall out, and it
was particularly so this time because of the
prevailing nervousness. Mr.. Keene is adj
mittedly the most adroit manipulation and
leader in the stock market, and his posi-
ton must be always taken into considera-
ton. A year ago he organized the stupen-
dous pool in Southern Pacific which is to
be dissolved on the first of April next. The
holdings of Mr.. Keene and his friends i'm
that property have been as high as 100000
shares ESQ 000. 0o0), and they are at least
half that now, IL is understood. They went
into the stock in the belief that part of
the earnings would be distributed among
There was disappointment in this respect
for IL has been the Hartman policy TO put
Southern Pacific earnings back into the
railroad. During the last two years SIS Co.,
900 has been expended in betterments, and
ii is the Hartman plan to spend at least
S25,000,0O0 more in perfecting the system.
Mr.. Keene and his friends contend that
these improvements should be charged 10
capital account, and the stockholders be
given either bonds or stock TO represent
the outlay. Mr.. Hartman has taken de-
cided stand against any such position, al
though at one time he was supposed TO
have acquiesced. Back of the contention is
the covert insinuation that the minority
holders would not strenuously object TO the
Hartman programme II they could feel
sure that the money is being applied as
represented. They would like to have
proof that the Southern Pacific earnings
are actually going back into the property
They do not openly make the ugly charge
that Mr.. Hartman and his associates are
using the money for the bolstering up OF
other enterprises not directly connected
with Southern Pacific, but allow the insinu-
alton 10 obtain currency. The fight which
Is now on may eliminate I'm a demand for
q rigid investigation into the finances Of
Union and Southern Pacific. The annual

Even after It became apparent that not
another person could enter the building. the
crowd continued to surge about the en-

To relieve this congestion. one Of the mill
tary bands was ordered to parade past the
building, and, as was expected. the ma
jority turned to follow the new attraction.
Tho handling of the morning and after
noon visitors was admirable. There were
sufficient ticket booths to accommodate all
who wished to purchase tickets. and the
turnstiles were also adequate.
The largest part Of the crowd entered ths
grounds by the gates at DeBaliviere ave-
nue., although those at the Lindell Pavilion
and Skinker road, did good share Of the
business.
The only congestion occurred during the
afternoon. when large numbers of persons
wished to leave the grounds. The exit gates
were found to be inadequate, but this was
overcome at night, as all the gates were
used by those wishing to leave the grounds.
