HAS RESOLUTION READY

An unexpected possible check to Che

which 20 stockholders has been an.
nounced for June !. appeared yester-
day In the offices of the Public Servic"
Commission. l. was there made known
tina. at to-day's meeting Of the com
mission William Hayward will Offer
resolution to the effect that the officers
Of the PETERBOROUGH and New York Rail

The resou,i ion viii he adopted. IL was
said
If the corporations admit the right OF
the commission to question them In this
matter and supply the desired informa-
ton. the commission will get legal ad-
vice a. to whether or not the proposed
reorganization could be effected withou;
the commissions consent.
Col Hayward has been studying both
the law and the published programme
OF the reorganizcrs. While not fully
convinced either way. he suspects that
this programme is one which should not
be undertaken without the commissions
approval. Hence mis- purpose TO intro
duce the resolution requesting more de-
tailed information.
The power of the commission is re
/ stricted to railroad companies actually
engaged In the operation OF lines. The
/ marlborough metropolitan was formed
under the general business law as =

| there would seem 90 be DOUBT as 20 the
! commissions having any jurisdiction
over the proposed reorganiza' Ion.
But Commissioner Hayward holds

! formed would aim To- get possession vi
! the assets rather than the stock Of .h'
two railroad companies Included II
! these assets are "A lot OF IntcrbOrougt
