INTER met PAYMENT
OF 6 P. G. EXPECTED
Directors Believed to Have De-
cidcd on Preferred
Dividend.
ADVANCE OF 1 PER CENT.

A dividend Of q per cent. on the pre-
ferred stock Of the PETERBOROUGH Metro
politan Company, II IL understood, has
virtually been decided upon by the
directors Of the company. A special
committee was appointed yesterday at
the regular meeting Of the board TO re.
port on the disposition Of the surplus
Of the company. This committee will
report probably next Tuesday and then
special meeting Of the board will
he held to take Anal steps.
The principal work Of the committee.
II Ia believed, will be to designate how
the dividend shall be paid, as II Ia be-
lieved that the decision that 1t shall
he paid has already been made.
There are back dividends on the pre-
ferred to the amount OF about IS per
cent. unpaid since October. 1907, when
payment Of the per cent. cumulative
dividend ceased II is believed that a
compromise arrangement will be made In
regard to these by which the company
viii seek to he relieved of the respon-
sibility of payment In whole or part.
The new dividend will be ~ the rate
Of per cent. advance over the old
cumulative rate.
The marlborough Metropolitan stocks
were strong yesterday in advance OF the
directors meeting, but sold on to some
extent afterward. The common. which
sold up to -, declined to 20i., lose OF
., from the day before, and the pre-
ferrcd, which sold up to rs. declined 10
7at, loss Of 81 from the day before.
The Interboroueh Rapid Transit Com
pany, the subsidiary OF the INTERIOR
oueh metropolitan Company. operating
tho sub way. declared an extra dividend
OF IS share yesterday. This Ia the
second extra dividend Of THE amount In
the current fiscal year. Although no
official statement was made. II IL &C
cepted that the extra 10 per cent pay
ment will now become a fixture In add
ton to tho regular 10 per cent paid,
| making the total d,sfdend 20 per cent.
on the stock.
The extra dividend OF 10 per cent. will
| add approximately S3..oo,ooo TO the In
| coma of the Interboroug h. Metropolitan
| which is about s65n.ooo more than
! enough to enable the company to pay a
regular per cent. dividend on it's out
standing stock. The 1nterhorough Rapid

George T Baker T. ne witt Cuyler,

and Edward Milligan will have a sep
sra,e trial from he sixteen other former
,Mcers and directors Of the New Haven
rho are under indictment for conspiracy
to violate tho sherman law by building
up railroad monopoly.
Judge William H. Hunt Of the United
states District Court. In granting the
order Yesterday. declared that there was
ro,hing to show that Baker and the four
others who Joined the directorate after
,,os did not sincerely believe that the
,oad had settled it's differences with the
Government or that they had not be-
come directors for the purpose OF pro-
,.c,,nc the interests Of the stockholders
or the corporation itself
A. the same time Judge Hunt denied
the pleas in abatement interposed by
william Rockefeller. John H. Billiard and
several other defendants. asking to have
the indictments set aside on the theory
that tho true bills had been drawn irreg-
ui,,Iy. similar pleas to the first indict =

nectlon with the alleged culpability of
these men would probably he dfferen,
from those prorounded at the trial OF

board all during the period covered by
the Governments conspiracy Indictment
Judge Hunt recalls that prior to the
entrance of Baker and his four col.
leagues into tho affairs of the New Ha-
ven the criminal action begun by the
Government against the New Haven m
1905 had been dropped by order of At
,orney General George W. Wickcrsham
