HARTMAN IN The
GOULD SYSTEM
Railroad Wizard Extends His
Sphere of Influence.
NEGOTIATIONS UNDER WAY

Hartman Interests viii Render Much
Needed Financial Assistance to the
Gould Roads and in Return the
Head of the Union Pacific System
Will Aid in Shaping the Policy of
One of His Strongest Competitors.
New York, July 29.-George j.
Gould, head of the Gould system of
railroads, on returning from Europe,
said that nothing would give him
greater pleasure than to have e. Fl.
Hartman in the directorate of the
Gould roads. Replying to a question
whether Mr.. Hartman would become
a director Of the Gould system Mr..
Gould said:
Il cannot say, except that nothing
would give me greater pleasure than
to have Mr. Hartman with us. We
need all the help of able men that we
can secure. The railroad managers
lot is not particularly a happy one.
Some of the diamonds have dropped
from our crown"
Mr.. Gould said that he knew moth
ing concerning an arrangement for the
payment of SS,000,000 of notes of the
Wheeling and Lake Erie railroad,
which fall due on Aug. l. Concerning
his own property he said:
I'VE are not yet out of the woods. "
While business had not yet reached
the volume of last year. he added, his
roads were row doing nearly normal
business. The receiverships of some of
his roads, he stated, were of friendly
nature and we're designed to keep the
properties intact and to protect them
from hostile state interests.
Good Crops Will Help Roads.
Mr. Gould laid much stress upon
the excellence of crop conditions,
which, he said, particularly affected
the welfare of the Gould roads.
Concerning the Standard Oil de.
oision Mr.. Gould expressed unqualified
satisfaction. Il think" said Mr..
Gould. that marks the turn in the
business situation. Looking at 1t from
the standpoint of railroad credit moth
ing did more to hurt this credit abroad
than the huge fine assessed by Judge
Landis. The foreign investors felt
that at any time their property might
be confiscated through no fault of
their own. Judge Gr0sscup's decision
again affirmed the American motto of
fair play"
Mr.. Gould added that he thought
the one to answer for corporation mis-.
deeds was some individual, not the
innocent stockholders.
1t was reported that following Mr..
Gould's return there will be a series
of conferences between representa-.
tives of the Gould interests, f.. H.
Hartman and Kuhn, Loeb & Co. and
that as a result the Gould roads will
receive strong financial support and
Mr.. Hartman and Kuhn, Loeb & Co.
will have share in the management
of the Gould system. Negotiations
looking to that end are said to have
taken place before Mr.. Gould went
abroad
