HUDSON VALLEY STOCK
Control by ID. S III. Reported
Other Interests Strong.

Ever since the adjustment Of the failed Mer-
chants Trust Company's affairs. in the course
Of which the control Of the Hudson Valley Rail-
way Company passed 70 other interests, il has
been expected that that control would eventually
be lodged with the Delaware & Hudson Com
pany. The Hudson Valley road parallels or
nearly parallels its lines for many miles north
ward from Albany In dispatch from Glens
Falls Monday it was announced by ex-State
Treasurer Addison B. Colvin, president Of the
Hudson Valley Railway Company, that the Sc
curities of the road held by the Colvin-H Herbert
Helme syndicate which were recently sold to
]. H Caldwell, of Troy, had been acquired by
the latter for account OF the Delaware & Hud-
son 1t was added that the possession Of this
block of securities gave the Delaware & Hud-
son control of the trolley system. the longest in
the state and for years a competitor OF the rail-
road company.
This statement was declared on good authority
here yesterday to be correct. but a leading Della
ware & Hudson interest denied that his COM
pany had obtained control of the property. 1t
is commonly believed. however. that 1t will not
be long before such an arrangement will be
consummated.
Meanwhile an interesting situation is present.
ed The ownership of the securities OF the
Hudson Valley company, as reorganized. is prac
tically lodged with only two interests One is
Mr.. Caldwell, to whom Mr.. Colvln and his asso-
ciates are understood to have sold their stock,
and who is supposed TO be looking TO the Della
ware & Hudson as the final purchaser of his
holdings. The other interest is made UP Of c.
w. Morse and the banking firm of E. Clarence
Jones & Co. The capital stock which at pres
ent has sole voting power. is S3.O10,O00. and Of
this majority is said to have been acquired by
Mr. Caldwell; and also majority of the S2,22S,-
900 outstanding first consolidated mortgage B

WORK OF RECENT COTTON CONGRESS.
Long Steps Taken to Gain Desired Reforms,
C. w. NIAGARA Says.

London. July S-Charles Wright NIAGARA.
chairman Of the committee of the International
Federation of Master Cotton Spinners and Man
ufacturers Associations, who has returned here
from the cotton spinners' congress at Bremen
thinks that the international organization is
within measurable distance of obtaining its main
objects. namely the steadying Of prices. the
checking of professional gambling operations
the appointment of a commission 70 investigate
the rules Of cotton exchanges. and, finally. the
improvement of the ginning baling transport
and marketing of cotton.
He considers the decision to improve the mar
keting. etc, of cotton to be the most important
taken by the Bremen congress He estimates
that $500O.000 could be annually saved in these
items in American cotton alone. and believes
that the strong financial position of the Ameri-
can growers enabling them to hold their cotton
will have an important influence in steadying
prices. While Mr.. Macara considers that the de-
sired minimum price. 10 cents. to be exceed
ingly profitable. he thinks that users will not
grunble at it.
Mr.. Macara attaches great Importance to the
promises of the users of cotton that America
is prepared to cooperate with the European
spinners

Byrda is not afraid 10 work for sub scriptions, or for any worthy object. and is one Of the best hustlers in the subscription race. as her score testf- fies. She is not one of those sensation al workers that do remarkable stunts now and then. but works steadily every day, rain or shine. She has always gathered in enough business each day to keep her score where she pleased, and also to add to her reserve fund. She has many loyal friends both in Phoenix and surrounding country. who are aiding her in every way possible and it looks now as if there will be pretty race on between this ambitious young woman and Harry Kerr for first honors. to say nothing of Eva Young and Randolph McElhaney. who are running close at their heels.
 Byrda is musically inclined, and wants the piano course in the Arizona School of Music. and if she holds her present standing at the close of the contest she will have her choice of the courses in that institution.
