FINANCE { INVESTMENT
Bonus or Railroad Aid Bonds.
TWENTY-SEVENTH ARTlCLE)
BY Marc M. Reynolds.

In the early history of railroad build
ing in the United States municipalities
throughout the Central and Southern
states assisted the construction of rail-
roads by giving financial aid in the form
of cash raised through the sale of bonds
expressly issued for the purpose These
bonds became known as railroad aid
bonds" and were, in point of fact. nothing
more nor less than subsidies. Just after
the Civil War there were numerous issues
of this class of securities, many Of which
have been repudiated.

Debenture Bonds.

Tn this country debenture bonds are an
evidence of Indebtedness issued by cor
poration, preceding in liquidation the pre-
ferred and common stocks. Usually they
are nothing more than a general note In
coupon form. but not secured by mort
sage. Throughout Great Britain and her
colonies the term "debenture" applies 10
municipal obligations the same as we use
the WORD bond In Canada. owing 10 close
associations with the United States. the
expression municipal bond and 'mu-
nicipal tebenture" is used without distinc-
ton. Canadians make a distinction be-
tween the word bond and the word de
henture" bv using the former 20 signify
a corporation security. while the latter
refers 10 municipal issues. Sometimes the
so-Called dcbenturc bonds carry a lien OF
some sort upon the property Of the COM
bany. but IN that case the proper term iS
mortgage d"benturo' when used IN the
United states. IL occurs frequently that
provision Is made that no mortgage in
debtedness shall be created unless de
benture" Issue shall share equally Ia the
security afforded the new issue. When
"a corporation deposits stocks and bonds
IN trust company to secure another bond
issue the now ssue is termed n "debenture
bond" in MANY cases. but more frequently
is termed a collateral trust"

DELAWARE
WARNS Up FOR
MARYLAND A. c.

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
NEWARK, Del, May 14.-coach
MacAvoy put the Delaware baseball
squad through a long hard practice
yesterday as he is especially anxious
to win Saturdays game from Mary
land Agricultural College. Batting
and fielding practice took up the en-
tire time. Wallace and j. Taylor
threw them over for the Varsity bat
ters. For more than an hour the
team batted, bunted and ran bases
Then came a short instruction from
the coach in sliding bases. Delaware
has been somewhat weak in this de-
partment this year and coach is de-
voting part Of each days practice to
the development Of this important
feature The whole team was then
sent into the field and put through a
hard fielding practice. Special atten-
tion was given to the outhelders. The
outfeld has been changed several
times this year and is still a little
weak in fielding The outfelders were
given a long practice in throwing to
the plate after catching a fly Cap
tain Hoch was not out for practice
as he had to go home on business.
lt was announced that the game
scheduled TO be played with Mary
land Agricultural College, at Newark
on Saturday would be played at col
leege park. Maryland on Saturday
morning. This change in the schedule
makes Il necessary for the team to
leave Newark on Friday afternoon.

Two of the stellar lights in the
White sox pitching corps are out OF
commission, but Manager Callahan is
comforted by the thought that he has
a reserve pitching staff second TO none
in the American League. Eddie Cicotte
reported to his chief today that he is
suffering from tonsilitis, and will not
be able to work for several days. Ed
Walsh was called to Meriden, Conn,
by the death Of a relative.
The Eastern teams of the American
League thus far in the western inva-
sion have not proven their supposed
marked superiority. SO far there is
"a margin of three victories in favor
oi the easterners. They have won l5
games and an even dozen have gone to
the White Sox, Tigers, ct al The luck.
less Yanks have made the best show
lug of any of the eastern teams on the
western trip. Chances men have
won FIVE and lost two in the first inter
sectional clash.
"Lanky Bob Ewing, who, in his
prime, used to NOV them down for the
Cincinnati Reds, was today started for
the bushes via the unconditional re-
lease route. He has been with Mime
apolis.
The Phillies or Brooklyn will GER
tainly have to lose SC he day soon,
and that suspense as to whether the
Dodgers are going to break into first
place will be broken.
II might have ended yesterday. but
Magee cracked out a home run in the
eighth against the Pirates 1t proved
TO be the winning run. j. Miller and
Cravath also hit for four bases during
the game.
The Dodgers ran Fromme to cover
and took their third game from the
Reds.
Space is always open for MIR. MUIR
ply, Of Chicago, to amend his state
ment as to the Cubs winning out by
an eighteen-game margin. With Tes-
r"7u going right they we're easy for

The Cardinals broke Boston's win

place.

Is George Heckert's team still play

EDDIE'S BOYS
DENY THEY LOST
SATURDAY GAME

Sporting Editor of THE EVENING
JOURNAL. Sir:--I saw in Tues
days issue of THE EVENING JOUR-
NAL that the Delaware City High
School had defeated Wilmington Jun
iors. This is untrue.
Before tie game it was understood
that Manager Morrow, of DelaYare
City was playing picked-up team
of Wilmington, playing under the
name of Adams A. c.
Six of Eddie.s boys we're not with
the team. These were NJ. Donohue,
and C. schlor pitchers; Jim Walsh,
short stop; Jack shep2erd, second
base; Carney third base aud Mink,
right field.
TIE Wilmington Juniors wish to
correct the statement that Johnson
and Murphy played with Delaware
City. The men were Jordan and
Ostrose, of the 45th Company Of Fort
DUPONT
After the fourth inning f. Neeff
and Swan, the regular Delaware
City High School battery, was taken
out and Jordan and Ostrose did the
pitching and catching Then Neeff's
brother went in to play. If this is
the only way Delaware City High
School can win a game, they better
stop playing baseball. They also
say that Murphy got a home run
with two men on base IL was Os-
trose of Fort DUPONT, who hit the
homer.
The Wilmington Juniors Baseball
team is willing to play the Delaware
City High School without Jordan,
Ostrose, E. Neeff anG with the Della
ware City High School regular line
up which they used against Chesrock
A. c. on May 3, on any grounds in
Wilmington.
Let the Delaware City High School
put their twelve players names in
the sporting editors hands of THE
JOURNAL, and the Wilmington Jun
iors do the same thing, and no play
ers whose name is not on the list can
play in the game. Also let the sport
ing editor of THE JOURNAL pick
grounds and an umpire As we can
play Delaware City on May 81 or
June z, we would like to have an
answer to this communication as
soon as possible. If Manager Nor
row wants to meet Manager Abra-
hams. he can do so by calling the
Sporting Editor of THE JOURNAL
and with the Delaware City manager
and captain and the Wilmington Jun
iors manager and captain, can have
meeting at THE JOURNAL Office
any night
Delaware City ought to remember
that Eddie Abrahams keeps the score
of his games and knows Jordan and
Ostrose when he sees them.
Our lineup is: Swift, C; Dono-
hue and Schlor, p; Walsh. ss Jeners
1b; Shepperd. Oh; Carney. 3b;
O'Niell, If; Glynn, CT; Mink and
Begley, IF.
We are in the game for clean
sport and if Delaware City has any
sport in them let them take this
game with its regular team.

are, yours in sport,
