Recent Activity in S. A. L. Stocks
Gives Rise to Interesting Ru-
NOR in Richmond.
Especial to the Daily Press)

lSDeCldl 10 lHc Ddily fftSo-1
RICHMOND. VA. May 24.-Recent
activity in SeabOard Air Line stocks.
now classed as Seaboard Company
common. first and second preferred,
has given rise to the belief in local
banking and railroad circles that the
Hawley syndicate may acquire en-
troll of the property.
1t seems to be generally admitted
that the Sehboard reorganization
committee has about completed its
work. and that the receivership will
shortly end. when the road will be
sold.
According to those who are wen
versed i'm railroad matters the Haw-
ley syndicate had one of two plans
i'm view when il bought the Chesa-
pcake and Ohio railway.
If the deal was not made as a spec
ulatiyc venture the syndicate I'M
doubtedIy had in mind the posi-
bility of great development and ex-
tension. Moreover. il seems To be
well understood that sooner or la
ter the owners will buy or lease a
lire which would give a direct route
from Newport News to Chicago. Then
ny taking over the Seaboard the
field Of usefulness would spread over
just that much more territory.
It cannot be stated definitely
whether Hawley and his associates
have been heavy buyers OF Seaboard
stock, but some one has been buying
Seaboard extensively during the past
six weeks, taking all offerings. With
the Seaboard's 2.S2f miles Of road
Hawlcy would have n great railroad
system connecting tho Seaboard with
Chicago.
