words it is to have its teeth extracted

same time the railroads are to keep up
cries Of distress in order to delude the
public into the belief that the bill is
really in the interests OF the people.
1t is said that some OF the big rail-
road men who have been heIe during
the last week or two have made q plan
like this because they realize that the
president is in earnest IN his desire to
have legislation on this subject. They
also realize that the agitation on the

of New York, directors. In their places
were elected Charles M. Allaire, of
New York, president; Charles E. Fink
Of Maryland, secretary and treasurer,
and George Blackstone and others of
Baltimore, as directors.
The meeting was entirely ignored by
Mr. Carter and his representatives, but
H. G.. Peters, of Bristol, representing
Baltimore stockholders, appeared and
entered protests, based upon the state
ment that the meeting was contrary to
the charter and contracts between the
stockholders. He further objected to
the stock owned by Mr.. Allaire being
allowed to vote upon the ground that it
had been purchased by Allaire after
the sale to Carter and after its holders
had ratified that sale.
Mr.. Carter and his representatives
refused to give any statement for pub
lication, but it is understood that they
regard the meeting as brought about
by the Union Trust company in an ef-
fort to obtain o commission from O
competing bidder for the property.
When told that the meeting took the
position that the directors could moi
sell all the corporate properties, they
} indicated that the corporation had been
formed and the directors given plenary
