and Receive Assurances that Point
Raised Will Be Modified.
While the conference between
President Taft and the heads of six
great railway systems was not produc-
tive of any change in the presidents
policy of advocating important amend
ments to the interstate commerce law.
the railway men, while somewhat dis
appointed otherwise, went away in the
knowledge that they had persuaded the
president to modify some of the views
which he was prepared to urge on con-
gress. :,
Generally speaking the president in
Dictated that he intended to adhere to
the line of legislation he had mapred
out He showed, however. as did
Attorney Wickersham, that he was
ready to acknowledge the justice OF
the contentious made by the railroad
men.
An example of the judicial spirit on
the part of the president was afforded
in the matter of objections made by
the railway men to the provision in
the proposed administration bill that
no railroad company should acquire
stock in any competing railroad COM
pany or hold stock in competing
road.
1t was pointed out that this would
tend to work great hardship to minori-
ty stockholders of railroads whose
stock was controlled by competing
companies. An instance where such
injustice might result was cited in the
case of the New York Central and
Hudson River railroad and the West
Shore Railroad company.
1t was explained that the New York
Central owned stock in the West Shore
and that through the proposed pro-
visions, individuals holding the minori-
ty stock of the West Shore would be
prevented from disposing of their
stock holdings to the New York Cen
trail which was, it was claimed, their
only prospective market.
The contention was made that if the
individual minority stockholders of the
West Shore could not sell their stock
to the New York Central it was doubt
full if they could dispose of it at all
and to that extent their property in
terests represented in this stock would
be injured materially.
Again it was held that if the hold
ings of the Central in the West Shore
had to be sold in compliance with the
proposed law the individual minority
stockholders would be obliged to dis
pose of their holdings at sacrifice.
President Taft and Attorney Gener-
al Wickersham were impressed with
the argument presented and they
agreed to change the draft of the pro-
posed bill, and the president, in addj-
ton, said he would revise his message
accordingly. The bill will provide,
however, that where one railroad com
pany owns minority interest in the
stock of a competing company it shall
not increase it's stock holding in that
competing company.
The conference was extremely
amicable and the president afterwards
said that the railroad presidents were
very considerate in presenting their
