MOST OF TIE ROADS OBJECT.
Dont Like the Idea es Changing Their
BoOkkeepinx Year.

WASHINGTON. Nov. THE majority
Of the railroads Of the United States do
not take kindly to the idea OF chan gin &
their bookkeeping system from the fiscal
year TO the calendar year. At present
nearly all the carriers recognize what
is known as the fiscal year. that is the
twelve months ending June 30. This
corresponds with the Governments fiscal
year. Several weeks ago a committee
OF the National Association Of Railway
Commissioners sent a circular 10 ascer-
tain whether the carriers would consent
to change their bookkeeping year from
the fiscal to the calendar year. that Is
the year ending December 81. The
committee thought that inasmuoh as
the new corporation tax Of the Payne
Aldrich tariff act is based on the calendar
year the carriers might desire to use
this same year In reporting as required
by law to the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.
Practically all the carriers have been
heard from and the sentiment is largely
in favor of the present sustem. Many
excellent reasons have been advanced
for not changing. For instance, in the
North in winter the carriers have plenty
OF time 70 get up the required statistics:
at the same time the carriers in the South
are doing their largest business.
Another very substantial objection
advanced 10 that nearly all States have
laws which require the carriers to file
reports. In these States the Legisla-
lures meet In the winter. and as the figures
are for the year ending June 30 when
they reach the State authorities they
are only about five months old. whereas
II the change was made TO the calendar
year in many cases the State authorities
would not get the figures for nearly a
year.
In view OF these objections it is con-
tended that a change instead Of sim
plifying matters would complicate them,
and the committee probably will 30 re-
port to the National Association Of Rail
way Commissioners. which will meet
here on November 10.

Although Prices Have Gone Up since the
Bidders Got Their Award.

While the Board OF Estimate was dis
cussing the building OF the Fourth avenue
subway in Brooklyn it was stated that
even if the bo"rd did approve of the con-
tracts the firms to which the contracts
for the six sections of the subway had
been awarded more than a year ago by
the Public 3ervice Commission would
not execute the contracts because Of the
increase that has since taken place in the
cost Of labor and materials.
William Bradley, who obtained the
awards for sections ? and 3, and a rep
resentativo OF the Z. Z. Smith Company
OF Philadelphia, which secured the awards
for section 5, and o. visited the offices Of
the commission yesterday and said that
they were prepared TO sign their contracts
as originally awarded. These contracts
would have been executed yesterday but
the lawyers for the commission asked
for twenty -four hours grace to examine
the bonds deposited by tho bidders.
The Bradley and Smith firms will do
about four-ffths of the work OF building
the new subway and the successful
bidders for the other two sections ii was
said yesterday at the Offices Of the COM

American Piano Co. wants Stock and
Dividends Back

Two suits. one in chancery and one at
law. were filed yesterday at Trenton
by the American Piano Company against
Ernest J. Knabe. Jr.. and William Knabe
to recover dividends on stock amounting
to sl3. 900 and TO recover SIS. 900 for which
an attachment has been levied.
The bill alleges that when the plaintiff
company was formed the two defendants
received stock the amount Of which was
fixed by an appraisal Of the assets turned
in on account of these defendants; that
this appraisal was inaccurate in many
respects and has been since corrected
that in consequence Of the correction of
the appraisal it appears that the two
defendants have received stock TO the
amount of more than $l3l 600 par value,
Of preferred. and sl3i 600, par value, Of
common. which they should not have
received and which should be returned
to the company for cancellation. The
bill also asks that the defendants be
compelled TO restore dividends on the
stock thus alleged to have been improperly
issued to them. the amount of such divi-
dividends being about $4,000.
