The Pearson syndicate began opera
lions something more than year ago
for the ACQUISITION OF a Coast-tO-coast
line. It bought heavily at FIRST In Le-
high valley and sent the stock up from
50 TO l2l. Control OF this road meant
an eastern terminus and link in the
contemplated chain extending from
New York To Buffalo other links were
the Wabash, the Rock Island. the Den
yer and Rio Grande and the Western
Pacific. All OF these roads except the

the syndicate continued to buy ana 10
send prices soaring II drew to the limit
on its own resources, borrowed largely
from the banks on its securities and be-
came increasingly dependent on IA
vorable general conditions. But the
general market did not remain favor
able. As there had been an artificial
stimulus so. there was natural re-
action. Prices began to decline, and
during the winter the campaign for
radical railroad legislation and the
plans for enforcing tho antitrust law
created a sentiment that helped the de-
cline along. The syndicate was now
compelled to dispose OF some OF It's
holdings in order To protect its loans,
the market was threatened by the load
of stocks the banks were carrying, and
TO those on the inside the situation was
very trying. II contained the possibih-
ties OF stock dumping, bad break ana
a panic. At this juncture the banks,
after demanding protection for their
loans, decided on a final settlement and
SO prevented widespread disaster.
group Of bankers took over the Pearson
holdings at perhaps half what they had
cost Though the Pearson syndicate
lost by the transaction, the general
market WAS saved.
