SUM OF $40, 900, 900
Increased Stock Issue WIN Have No
Eject ON Dividends.

Increased Stock Issue VIII Have No
Effect ON Dividends.
More than $40, O0O.OOO will be
paid in dividends by the Northern
Pacific railroad for the fiscal year
ended July /, according to an esti-
mate made by the Financial Bulletin
Of Philadelphia.
AS there has been increased stock
issue Of 500 ,OOO,O 900 since last year.
this will amount to Ia per cent on
e24s 900, 600. instead OF the IL IA
per cent paid on a15b.0OO. 900 last
year. The story in the Financial
Bulletin says:
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Northern Pacific Railway company
for the fiscal year to end June 80
next will suffer a loss In gross oper-
ating revenues totaling in the neigh
borhood of $1,000, 900, there III ex-
cellent reason for believing that the
company's balance available for divI-
dends will be larger than in the prev
ious fiscal period by at least $780,
900 or $500. 900, and possibly by q
still larger amount To be on the
safe side, however, we estimate the
amount at about $20,623,O00, or
some e73O,000 more than In 1908.
This approximation, however, may be
taken az extremely conservative.
The foregoing assertion il based
partly on the actual showing OF gross
and net revenues for the 10 months
ended April 80 last. and the posi-
bility Of showing equally as good
for May and June as that Of April,
while the rest OF the income account
Ii based on the Ave months actual
figures furnished the New York
Stock exchange.
There will be a very material cur
taiiment In interest and commission
charges on the new stock subscrip-
lions AZ compared with the previous
year. although dividend disburse-
ments will be very materially In
creased. as a result Of per cent div
idends on the additional $1,000.
900 capital stock. which was fully
paid on January last. and entitled
TO such payments from that date.
According to an estimate. the
company's earnings available for di.
vidends on June so next will b
equal to a little over s Ia per cent
on the total S2As. OOO.O 600 capital
stock now outstanding. az compared
with about 10 Ia per cent on the
e15b, OOO.O 900 stock outstanding IA

PROPOSED CUTOFF NOT
GOOD FlNANClERING.

The proposed cutoff from the mouth
Of Weber canyon. on the Union Pa
cific, to point on the Oregon Short
Line near Pennington. Is said to in
volve sand cut of such proportions
as to be almost impractical. The ex-
perience with the sand ridge cut-ofr
through which the Oregon Short Line
now enters Ogden from the south has
demonstrated that there are uncertain
ties involved In these deep sand cuts
which cannot be approximately esti-
mated or even anticipated by trained
civil engineers.
On the Weber canyon cut-or the
cut would be SO long and deep as TO
present a great engineering problem
and perhaps calls for vast outlay OF
money. In addition, tunnel of great
length through this same quicksand
formation would be necessary. the
construction of which might be more
difficult than the excavatlng of an
open cut
And then the object to be attained
is so infnitesimal, as compared with
the cost of the undertaking. that the
whole scheme seems impractical from
n financial standpoint.

FATE OF LUMBER AND
HIDES is UNCERTAIN

Washington, March 28.-The fate OF
lumber and hides in the proposed new
tariff law probably will not be decided
until the conference reports on the
bill have been appointed by the sen
ate and the house These articles have
been buffeted already more than those
of any other class OF import. Clashes
have occurred over these schedules
between the representatives Of the
East and West, and there Is prospect
Of the differences becoming so sharp
that the Democrats from the Southern
states may determine the outcome
The Western senators on the COM
mittee have proved particularly strong
advocates of the restoration of the
duty on hides, while Senator Lodge is
said to stand almost alone In his cam
palgn for free hides.
Champions of the movement to take
tho duty of lumber entirely are not so
sanguine OF success as the advocates
of free hides, so far as their contest in
the committee Is concerned.
Regardless of the vote OF the com.
mittee the advocates of free lumber
and free hides have been promised
separate votes on these questions In
the senate. and they are satisfied with
this concession.
The best interest Is being manifest.
ed In the maximum and minimum fea-
