MORGAN SHOWS HIS HAND
SAID TO BE TRYING To SECURE CON-
TROL OF THE LEHIGH VALLEY.
The ID. & o. to Establish Schools of
Instruction-Lumber Plan
Big Excursion Next Month.

The fight between the Morgan interests
and some of the stockholders of the Lehigh
Valley road, which is likely to be brought
before the courts for adjustment. is attract
ing much attention in financial and rail-
road circles. The road is earning II per
cent annually above legitimate expenses,
but still withholds dividends. The Phila-
delphia North American says editorially:
The Lehigh Valley Railroad Company, as
stanch an investment craft as ever was
fioated, has fallen into the hands of the
Morganeers. and they are using every
diabolical means at their command to wrest
1t from the owners. Tactics that ordinary
pirates would disdain to employ are being
used to obtain possession of the property.
Methods precisely opposite were used to
float the steel trust. In that case the in
siders owned all the stock and wanted to
unload 1t. Hence dividends were declared
and paid in order to sell the worthless
stock, and abandoned when no more could
be disposed of. In Lehigh Valley dividends
are withheld in order to force the public to
sell, and will be resumed at the top notch
OF profit to the promoters"

Schools of instruction are to be estab-
lished by the operating department of the
Baltimore & Ohio for the benefit of freight
agents. The work will be supervised by w.
II. Williams. assistant to the general man
ager, but the actual instruction will be
given by the various division freight agents.
The latter officials are, in a way. new crea-
tions on the Baltimore & Ohio, the first
having been appointed last summer. Since
then their duties have been broadened con-
siderably. Many changes in accounting,
making freight bills and methods of ship
ping freight have been introduced recently
on the Baltimore q Ohio, and the best way
TO acquaint agents with the changes, the
officials say, is to instruct them in a body.
One of the recent changes is that of max
Ing what is termed imanibils." Such a
paper is a combination weigh bill and
freight bill, and the method has proved so
satisfactory that orders have been issued
that ''manibills may be issued from any
of twenty-six points to all stations on the
system, the order becoming effective March
1. In issuing the manibills manifold type
writer's are required, and strict account is
kept of the work of each clerk. The Bal
tinore & Ohio is the first railroad in Cen
trail Traffic Association territory TO adopt
this system.

No Joint Agencies mt st. Louis.

It is stated that visitors to the st. Louis
fair will not be compelled to waste time
and money going to joint agency to have
the return coupons of tickets validated The
ST. Louis passenger associations have
agreed not to charge the customary fee of
% cents for validating the return portion
of the round-trip ticket. and 1t is expected
the announcement will be made after the
meeting of next week that no joint agency
would be established. The lines terminating
in ST. Louis believe they could reap a profit
of nearly 100000 from the fees for vail
dating tickets, ard tried to induce the Cen
