Accused at Stockholders Meeting
OF Launching Private
Enterprises.
WITH THE C0MPANY'S MONEY
Stormy Meeting Takes Places in Pitts
bury and Directors Make Serious
Charges Against the President
OF the Company.

PIITSBURG. July 25,-At a sensa.
tonal meeting Of the stockholders OF the
Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing
Company today. George Westinghouse,
president Of the company Was charged
openly by the stockholders with launch
ing private ventures with the company's
funds. The directors were charged with
aiding him In this. but after a bitter
squabble the slated board Of directors
we're elected and the official coterie won
out.
James Carrothers, one Of the minority
stockholders, led the opponents of West
inghouse. The incident grew out Of the
report of the Company. Mr.. Carrothers
called attention TO the assets, in which
were stocks and bonds OF the Lackawan-
ma and Wyoming Valley Rapid Transit
Company to the value of SG,SO0,OOO. Mr..
Carrothers wanted to know how much
was the stock and how much was the
bonds.
There was hot discussion and 1t de.
veloped that the capital stock OF the
Iackawanna and Wyoming Valley Rapid
Transit Company is Ss,OOO,OOO and that
road cost about $6,0000O0. No one was
sure that these figures were correct and
there was more or less confusion. Mr..
Carrothes said
1--WE have $6OO0,0OO worth of bonds
and $3,000,000 worth of stock. Who has
the remainder Of the stocki This COM
pany puts up all the money tnat is
spent on the road and gets only S3,OOO,-
900 worth OF stock.
"Why shouldn't this company have all
the stock If it pays for the roadf"
No one present was able TO explain
the report in detail. The adoption of
the report was moved, but John GNgg,
one of the directors said:
Before we close I want to know from
whom the stock of this rapid transit
company was purchased, ! understand
that these stocks were purchased from
Mr.. Westinghouse, that this stock is a
private corporation and that Mr., West
inghouse unloaded stock on the COM
pany." A voice was heard: "At twice
its value" After several calls for votes
the report was adopted. The meeting
today is the first held in nine years. All
the old board of directors were re-
elected.

Obscure Employe Secures $s,-
100000 in Panama Bonds.
REFUSES ANY IMPORTATION
Employe of the American Express Com
pany is Successful Bidder For the
Canal onds-Worling For
the Company.

NEW YORK, July 25-The identity
of Samuel Byerley, the successful bidder
for $5.S00000 of the new Panama Canal
2 per cent bonds was learned yesterday.
Byerley turns out to a clerk in the ae-
counting department of the American
Express Company. Ever since the bids
for the bonds were announced last Sat-
urday, Wall street has been trying to
learn something about Mr., Byerley and
has been speculating as to the interest
behind shis bid. Byerley was not in
clined to answer any questions yesterday
after he had been located. The treasurer
Of the American Express Company said
"This is entirely a personal matter
with Mr.. Byerley, who is one of our
clerks. There is absolutely nothing in
the rumor that he represents interests in
the company"
Byerley has almost taken the breath
away from some of his fellow clerks.
He had host OF callers yesterday, who
wanted to know how he could afford to
bid $5,SO0O00 OF Government bonds, but
he had nothing to say.
The general opinion among those in
the American Express Company is that
Byerley is taking a little fier, which
has not cost him anything more tangible
so far than nerve Under the terms of
the sale no money need be put up until
August |, Byerley made four bids. For
one million bonds he offered $l04.l25;
for the second million $l03990; for the
third million $lO3,975, and for $2,Sl95s0
he offered $lO3.S67. The New York
syndicate that got one-half Of the $780,
100000 bonds put up a price on them
yesterday of $l0440 It was ciphered
out by the bond experts yesterday that
should c. H. Byerley sell his option at
lO4 he would clear $3.50, without put
ting up cent save for the postage stamp
which carried his bid to Washington.
Byerley, it was learned yesterday, was
once clerk in bank in California. His
bid has aroused no end of talk in Wall
street and there are some bankers who
have expressed the opinion that here

Revolutionists viii Wait Until
Peasantry Are Idle to
Call Strike.
GOVERNMENT HARD PRESSED
officials Are Facing the Serious Problem
of Securing Cash to Procure
Food For the Starving
Peasants.

ST. PETERSBURG. July 25.-Though
it is difficult to obtain true picture of
conditions in the interior owing to the
embargo that has been put upon press
dispatches. all indications point more and
more to a postponement of the threat
ened general strike until the government
shall be less, and the country more pre-
pared for such an event, and until the
harvest is finished and the revolutionary
movement develops spontaneously among
the idle peasantry.
What news has been received from the
provinces today indicates that conditions
are scarcely ripe, except in the famine
districts, for an upheaval.
Strategists of the revolutionary coun-
ell are laboring with the hotheads to in
duce them to postpone the call for a
general strike until it can come as a
supplement to the movement already
underway. A definite decision will be
reached within day or 50 in the re.
organized council of workmen.
Constitutional Democrats Weak.
The remnant of constitutional demo-
cratic deputies. many of whom, after
having collected arrears of salary and
mileage due them, have started home
ward are eaueasing industriously, but
their Importance has gone, and neither
the government nor the revolutionists
are paying much attention to the former
dominant party in the lower house Of
parliament The government has not
abandoned its efforts to enlist the mod
crates in the cabinet. The most urgent
problem which will be for the govern
ment in case of an immediate outbreak,
is relief of the distress in the interior.
The cabinet meeting Tuesday evening
was devoted to this subject and it was
voted to extend the relief work in the
famine districts. A commission was ap-
pointed to decide where the budget could
best he cut to find the $7,500,O0O voted
by parliament for famine relief.
Government Needs Cash.
1t will be necessary also to provide
more cash for settlement of claims
for damages to estates during the peas
ant excesses, the commission for Yeka-
terinoslav province, alone demanding
$l50,000 in addition to $250,000 already
expended, but this is capable of being
deferred. Premier Stolypin announced to
the council of the empire today that he
had obtained from Emperor Nicholas,
special powers for Admiral Skrydloff in
restoring and maintaining order and dis
cipline in the Black Sea fleet. The adj
miral who departed today for Sebasto-
pol, told the Associated Press his first
task would be to investigate the arrests
of sailors of the fleet and liberate those
mjustly sent to prison.
