But Outlook for Current Year Is
Good, Says TrumbuII.

AS had been expected in the financial
district. the directors of the Chesapeake
& Ohio Railway Company yesterday de-
clared quarterly dividend of per cent
on the So, 49,. GO outstanding stock, COM
pared with the previous declaration of II.
per cent. thus placing the stock on 4
per cent annual basis. The company has
been paying per cent since May, 1910.
previous to which per cent was paid.
The action of the directors had been so
generally discounted that the stock suf-
iered no loss on the exchange
Frank Trumbull. chairman of the Ches-
apeake e. Ohio board. said that, in view
Of last years conditions the ( per cent
rate was conservative. and asserted that
the outlook for the current year indicated
that the company would earn fully per
cent.
During 1928" said Mr.. Trumbull
the floods and coal strikes In the terri
tory served by the Chesapeake q Ohio
reduced the earnings Oh the stock by
about per cent. The direct p. .operty loss
was $4,000. but attendant losses in traf-
hc etc. brought this figure up to prac-
tically sl.c0,0O0, all of which had to be
taken out of earnings.
The Chesapeake & Ohio. however, got
in shape sooner than its connecting lines.
and is still delivering traffic faster than
the other roads can take it. The directors
yesterday authorized AN additional eX-
pendlture of $4,000 to provide a second
coal unloader at the Toledo docks. max
ing a total Of sl.C0J,to expended for this
purpose
Mr. Trumbull said that the dvi-
dend declared at this time would so 10
500 shareholders. as compared with the
800 who received the March dividend
three months ago. lie said that the
s.. 10000 notes sold TO Kuhn. Loeb & Co.
in jane wOulG provide for all the COM
panY's financial requirements until June
80. 1914.
During the year ended June 80. 1915, the
Chesapeake & Ohio earned a gross reve-
nue. OF t35, ,0S5,27S an increase of <7a5, 400.
Operating income amounted TO &,3O3,93i.
a decrease of N.34l.Os6, while net income
after fixed charges came TO s., 29s,JW
loss Of S975, ,703 The reduction in the divl-
dend will result in saving O. $60o0e.
The Hooking Valley Railway Company,
a majority of the stock of which is held
by the Chesapeake & Ohio. declared a
quarterly dividend Of > per cent yester-
day. increasing the annual rate from I
per cent TO 5. The Chesapeake * ohio
will benefit 10 the extent OF $3.50 a year.
Although the annual report of the Hook
ing Valley has not yet been made public
il is predicted that the company viii
show about lTa per cent earned on It's
