New York, July 11.-(SpeciaL)-
Some years ago the late James Nc
Rea, president of the Pennsylvania
Railroad company. was quoted as hav-
ing said that he thought there were
good reasons for surmising that busi-
ness of the kind furnished by the mid
die west to the Pennsylvania lines had
practically reached its height In other
words, the industrial and agricultural
development of the region west of the
Alleghanies served by the Pennsylvania
company was not likely so greatly to
increase in the future as to make 1t
essential that there be enlargements or
expansions of the Pennsylvania sys-
tenn in those regions.
There was always doubt in this city
on the part of those who read the re-
port of President McReas stateemnt
about his precise meaning. but there
were some of the abler managers of
the railway world who wondered
whether President McRea did not con-
template a new and great increase of
business for the Pennsylvania system
through ths transportation offered by
great business energies of the south.
When the Pennsylvania management
by a piece of strategy which has be-
come traditional secured between the
setting and the rising of the sun the
ownership of the Philadelphia Will

tended that line to Washington, 1t was

New York, July 11.-Dun's review to-

while business generally reflects the
quietness usual at this period, CONNER
cial tendencies are mainly in the direc-
ton of improvement and confidence in the
future has strengthened. Financial senti-
ment was affected somewhat by the fail
ures in the Pittsburg district the resump-
ton of gold exports and the threatened
railway strike: yet securities values were
well maintained III view of these develop
ments. A new low record of prices, how
ever, was reached on United States bonds

complications in the Balkan situation.

outlook, but the spirit of conservatism is

ceived notice from the clerk of the SUI
preme court that the certificate of affirm
at-Sn in the case of Alex Waldrop of this
city, who was some time ago convicted
of killing his wife. has been recalled
This is considered to mean that Waldrop
may not hang on August 1, the date set
for the execution. Clerk Shepperd also
says that 1t does not necessarily mean
this, however, and that he may not even
get new hearing. Should, it be decided
to grant him new hearing, 1t will prob
ably be necessary for the governor to
grant a stay of execution while the case
is with the higher court.
An effort is being made to secure
communication of the sentence of Waldrop.

cured for the Pennsylvania, the Long
Island Railway system.
This ligature. one end of which is to be
at the terminal OF the New Haven rail-
road upon the Harlem river and the other
at the terminal of the Pennsylvania rail-
road upon Long Island is now regarded
by railway men as a strategic key open
ing up as vast possibilities as did the
strategic key of which Commodore Van
derbilt became the owner when he secured
the control of the railway bridge across
great key to the railway business between
New England and the west
By means of this East river bridge and
the short approaches to 1t the Pennsyi-
vania railroad and the New Haven sys-
tenn become physically, although not in
ownership or in law, a single line. The
magnificent commerce which originates
and terminates in New England at least
in the eastern half is to be brought to he
Pennsylvania. and In return the Pennsyl-
vania is to furnish very great traffic FOR
the New Haven line. These possibilities
undoubtedly explain the recent increase o..
financial interest which the Pennsylvania
or its friends have secured in the New
Haven system.
Railroad TRANSPORTATION to and from
points in the south to New England and TO
relatively as gera. as or gerater than the
transportation carried by the so-calIed
trunk lines, between New England and
the west. The opening of the Panama
canal is certain greatly to increase thc
demand for railway transportation of this
kind.
The surmise is very strong in railroad
circles in this city that the Pennsylvania $
greater future is not along the parallels
of latitude which inclose zone of which
the state of Pennsylvania is the eastern
portion, but is in It's alliance with the New
Haven system which covers New England
and in its normal and strategical position
with respect to the commerce to and from
the gulf and Atlantic states of the south
Although railway managers Of this city
strongly discredit the rumor that the
Pennsylvania purposes something like
control either by lease or in some other
manner of the great railroad ar
teries of the SOUTH vet 1t is safe to as-
sumo that the recene transaction by which
the Pennsylvania becomes the owner of a
very large block of Southern Pacific rail-
way stock inevitably is TO be followed by
enlaorged or closer relations with some
one of the gerat railway systems of the
southern states that fringe the Atlantic
and the Gulf of Mexico.

Admission, July (Special.)--A poese

lieved to be abe assailant of Miss Belle

ator, who was bonud, gagged and robbed
some time ago. A reward of $3.50 has been
offered, but the man captured was not
identified by the young woman.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-07-12

then thought by railway managers that
the far-seeing minds which had the
Pennsylvania management in charge
were even at that early day contem-
plating the growth industrlally and
commercially of the south and were
preparing for the advantages to the
Pennsylvania which would be sure to
follow the growth. 1t was Just about
that time that the Industrial and COM
mereial development of the south,
which has now reached amazing pro-
portions, began.
1t may be that the strong alliance
which the Pennsylvania people have
made with the New Haven railroad in
terests coupled with the recollection
of what President McRea was re-
ported to have said and the recollec-
tion, also, of the expansion of the
Pennsylvania system southerly so lar
as Washington explains the differences
which have been made since the agree
men to swap the stock held by the
Pennsylvania of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad company for portion
of the stock held by the Union Pacific
in the Southern Railroad company, was
carried into effect. For it has been in
ferred that the Pennsylvania having
secured by this exchange of stock an
influential relation TO the Southern Pa
cifc, may with the eyes of its mana
gers fixed upon New Orleans, contem
plate some arrangement whereby its
position in the south and southwest
may be fortified.
A Great System
It was regarded as too absurd a
a statement to need official denial that
the Pennsylvania management contem-
plated through its control of Southern
Pacific stock a transcontnental sys-
tenn, stretching from the present termi-
nal of the Pennsylvania and st. Louis
to the Southern Pacific.
But there may be sound railroad
philosophy In the proposition involving.
alliance or control by the Pennsyla-
MIA of some one of the great southern
routes stretching from Washington or
Baltimore to New Orleans where con-
nection can be- made with the Southern
Pacific system.
Not Probable Deal
The railway system, which covers much
of the south. which was associated by in.
ference with the Pennsylvania plan, is
the Atlantic Coast Line.
There may be some sort of additional
alliance with railroad system of rhe
south. although the traffic relations be-
tween the Pennsylvania and the gerat
railway systems of the south are now
very close. The Pennsylvania is the nor
NAL and most economical and in all ways
satisfactory link between New York city,
New England and the Atlantic and gulf
states of the south. There can be now no
doubt that it was because the late A. j.
Cassatt realized what the opportunities for
the railroads which he controlled We're,
should there be made close connection
with the New Haven system, which led
him to enter into arrangement with the
New Haven for the construction of a
bridge across the estuary which connects
the harbor of New York with Long Island
sound. President Cassatt had already Sc
