OFFER TO EXCHANGE STOCK
Interborough- Metropolitan Trus-
tees to Give Back Shares.

Announcement was made by the voting
trustes of the electromagnetic
Company. through Secretary Ely of the
Stock Exchange yesterday that they
would, upon the request Of the preferred
stockholders, exchange the voting trust
certificates for regular certificates.
1t was explained at the offices OF the In
terborough- Metropolitan Company that
this offer had been made because certain
Stock Exchange firms had complained that
since they had deposited preferred stock
with the voting trustees under misap-
prehension and difference in price be-
tween the regular certificates and the vot-
ing trust certificates having developed,
they wanted to get back the shares they
had put in.
4 representative of the voting trustees
said that their ruling in the matter az
fected only these complaining firms and
not depostaries as a whole and did not
mean In any way that the voting trust
was In process Of dissolution.
About 80 per cent of the common ana
S5 per cent Of the preferred stock OF the
Interborough- Metropolitan Company has
been deposited with the voting trustees
under a five-year agreement, which does
not expire until March 6. 1916. The voting
trustees are August Belmont, L. j. Ber-
wind Andrew Freedman, Theodore T.
Shonts and Cornelius Vanderbilt.

The court record in the case of George

Edwin F.. Martin. as plaintiffs. agt. the
New York Mercantile Exchange will prob

District Attorney I'm charge OF the inquiry

ask Of Edwin f. Martin. who will he the
next witness called at that inquiry. Edwin
+. Martin Is now president of the exchange,
which, it is alleged in the information

fourth 10 one and one-fourth cents pound
more for the butter they bought, they had
to sell IT at the prices quoted by the ex-

PLAN SPANISH RAILROAD.
National City Bank to Finance
$60,000,00O Project.

It was learned from an authoritative
source yesterday that negotiations are un-
der way here for the financing of a railroad
in Spain which will communicate directly
between Madrid and the French frontier.
Tho National City Bank is principally inter
eSted in financing the project. r. L. Farm
ham, representing the National City Bank,
recently returned from Spain after finishing
satisfactory negotiations with the Spanish
government for the construction OF the
railroad, according to dispatches from
Madrid
1t is estimated the building Of the road
will cost about s60.00O,00O the proposed
tunnelling Of the Pyrenees being the largest
item of expense Of construction. The
Spanish government will issue bonds to
cover the cost Of construction and the Ma
tional City Bank is ready TO handle the
bonds and sell them here and in Paris, 1t Is
understood.
Mr. Farnham conferred with Premier
Canalejas and other Cabinet ministers on
his recent trip TO Spain, and the govern
ment finally accepted a draft of a contract
for the construction of the railroad. which
will be submitted to the Cortes for ratifica-
ton.
John F. Stevens. formerly chief engineer
of the Panama Canal. is said to have Sc.
cured the contract TO construct the road.
He sailed from here two or three days ago
for Spain. Subsequent TO his connection
with the Panama Canal Mr.. Stevens held q
place with the Hill lines in oregon. Later
he opened offices in this city, at No. 55 Wall
street. under the name Of the John F. Stew
ems Construction Company. Stevens was in
Europe for an extended vacation a few
months ago, and at that time was looking
over the field of railroad construction in
Spain and other countries.
Construction work on the new road is ex-
pected TO begin I'm June. When completed
it will be turned over TO the Spanish gov
ernment for operation.
In 1910 the National City Bank went
abroad for an investment. 1t backed syn
dicate which was formed to take mp a con-
Cession for building a railroad In Hayti,
and developing the resources Of the land
through which the new road was TO go. The
syndicate formed the IIayt Company. with
Offices at No. 80 Wall street. in the Ma
tional City Bank building. Underlying that
was the National Railroad Company Of
Haytl, with 100000 authorized capital
stock, 10 build three hundred and fifty miles
Of railroad. with tho bonds guaranteed by
the Haytian government L. l.. Farnham
was president Of that company.

TESTS ARBITRAGE TRADING
Firm on Little Board Tells of
Success in London Market

The first step toward arbitrage trading
on the Consolidated Stock Exchange has
been taken by one Of the leading firms Of
the little board which has recently es-
tablished London connections and is pre-
pared to execute orders in the London mar
ket. 1t is believed that other members of
the exchange will follow the example of
this firm and that a considerable business
with the London market will result.
While the new form of trading has not
received the official sanction of the gov
ernors of the Consolidated Exchange, it is
learned that the movement has their hearty
approval and that they will do everything
they can to encourage the business instead
Of hedging it around with restrictions, a
has been done by the management of the
New York Stock Exchange. The latter cx-
change frowned upon arbitrage trading, be-
cause II was found to afford an opening for
splitting commissions. The members suf-
fered so much loss from the decline in the
foreign business. however. that they re-
Gently got up a petition, which was signed
by majority of the active members, and
presented 1t TO the governing committee,
requesting that some of the restrictions be
lifted so that the business could be again
conducted on a profitable basis. The petit
tion has not yet been acted upon by the
governors.
The firm that has started arbitrage trad
ing on the little board" tells in cir
cular letter sent to the other members Of
the exchange the advantage to be gained
by New York trader in the London mar
ket. The letter says:
A trader will frequently be long or short
of a stock overnight in New York and VIII
try 10 sell or buy at the closing prices
here, but will be unable to do so at a sat
isfaCtory price. BY placing his order in
London for the following morning he has
good chance OF having 1t executed at as
favorable price as he could have got the
day before In New York. Often the Lon
don market opens far enough away, either
up or down, from the New York close 10
offer a, good risk for trader to either buy
or sell in London, with the idea of closing
his trade at the opening in the New York
market
