STONE DECLARES
 RYS. MAKE MONEY
Shows That Item of $40, 900, 900 Charged Twice, Indi-
 eating Deficit.

Chicago, Feb. 3.-Warfen s. Stone of counsel for the enginemen m the Western railroad wage arbitration to- day expressed the opinion that if railroad companies could pay divi- dends out of surplus and as he al- legged they did in 1914, they could draw on the same source for the ad- vance in wages which the men are seeking.
 'It has been alleged here," said MT. Stone, that the railroad earnings have been steadily decreasing of re- cent years. Forty-four reads showed a deficit in 1914 and forty-one a sur plus. Yet it is fact that so per cent of the mileage of these roads showed surpluses."
 J. P. Keefe, assistant general mana ger of the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe .ailrcad, the witness to whom this statement was made interrogatively, said he had not investigated the re- ports of the roads along the line talk en up by MT. Stone.
 The latter suggested that what look ed like an error in one of the rail- road compilations had been found in which it appeared that an item of $4O,000,0O0 for purchase of roads, bet terments, appeared twice, once against the name of the Puget Sound road and again against the Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound railway, which pur- chased the former
 MT. Keefe said he would investigate to see if the error had been made. The apparent error; Mir. Stone commented, would indicate that the road needed $1, ,60O,00O more revenue than might actually be the case and was essential to the contention that the road was fully able to pay the wage advance requested.

Appeals to Germany.


 Vanceboro, Me, Feb. 3.-Wernar Van Horn, who attempted to blow Up the railway bridge here yesterday ap- pealed to the German ambassador tt Washington, Count von Bernstorff. He told the latter that he had not been on Canadian soil, and asked for pro- lection from extradition to Canada.
 Dominion authorities were busy to- day building up case to support their request for the extradition of Werner Van Horn, who recently at tempted to destroy the international bridge over the St. Croix river. Be- fore noon large party of secret ser vice officers arrived here from Mon treal Their business was to establish that Van Horn deliberately had caused damage to a railroad and so commit ted an offense extraditable under the treaty between the United States and Canada. At the same time, th:. ques- ton whether Van Horn was crimi- nal or political offender was to be made the subject of exchanges be- tween Ottawa and Washington.
 Van Horn, still claiming to be an officer of the German army, and ap- bearing to feel secure in his position that he had properly committed an act of war, and so could not be extra dited, awaited events with composure His only regret so far as expressed is that he succeeded in damaging the bridge but slightly.
