Denver's Holdings of

Salomon & Co. Pay Four
Million Dollars for
the Stock

William Salomon & Co. on the steps
Of the County Courthouse yesterday
bid s4,O00,0O0 for the right, title and
interest OF the Denver & Rio Grande
Railroad in the stock Of the Utah Fuel
Company, which has a par value Of
$10,000,000. The banking firm acted on
behalf of the Western Pacific Railroad,
which has 95 per cent interest in the
S38, 100000 Judgment against the Den
YER & Rio Grande, which was obtained
several months ago by the Equitable
Trust Company as trustee of the old
Western Pacific first mortgage bonds.
The sale was conducted under a pro-
test of the Bankers Trust Company,
acting as trustee for the first and re-
funding bondholders Of the Denver &
Rio Grandc.
The bid made by Salomon 4 Co.
places a nominal value Of $12,300,0 900 on
the Utah Fuel property, inasmuch as
the SA,000000 paid was for the equity
in the company over and above the
$2,300,000 Utah Fuel bonds outstand-
ing and s6,000,000 cash which must be
paid to the Guaranty Trust Company
to redeem the stock pledged with it as
trustees as collateral security for the
gage.
The protest of the Bankers Trust
Company served notice that this insti-
tuition, acting as Trustee under the
Denver e. Rio Grande first and refund
ing mortgage would at the proper time
take such action as would be appro-
pirate to protect the first and refund
ing bondholders' interest in the Utah
Fuel stock"

Railroad Leaders Confer
Discuss Need of Higher Pay
for Reorganized Roads

Legal representatives and executives
of the less prosperous railroads held a
lengthy conference yesterday in the
rooms of the Midday Club, at rs Broad
Street, with Judge Alfred P. Thom,
who has been representing the carriers
in their negotiations with the govern
ment for a uniform contract
The object of the gathering, it was
understood, was ito emphasize the need
of special dispensation for certain
roads, particularly for those that were
reorganized during the three-year test
period ended June 80 last. Action Of
this character is provided for under
the Presidents railroad proclamation,
which, in this connection, says:
IF the President shall find that the
condition of any carrier was, during all
or substantial portion Of the period
of three years ended June 80, 1917, be-
cause of operation, Yeceivership
or where recent expenditures for addi-
tlons or improvements of equipment
were not fully reflected in the operating
railway income Of said three years or
substantial portion thereof, or be-
cause of any undeveloped or abnormal
conditions, so exceptional as to make
the basis of earnings herein above
provided for plainly inequitable as q
fair means of just compensation, then
the President may make with the car
rier such agreement for such amount
as under the circumstances of the par
ticular case he shall find just"

the suggestion of Charles Hayden.

other purposes" The company, he
said. is earning many times the charges
OH all it's interest bearing obligations,
including the new issue.
A small increase in the average rate
for service was limited at by Mr.. Vail
in discussion of ways and means by
which the company may provide
against the present abnormal increases
in costs Of operation. "Many Of these
increases" he added. "have already
been asked for, some have been
granted and others are now being con-
sidered by the various authorities hav-
ing control and regulation. There has
been as yet no case where determi-
nation has bcen reached and whore
conditions warranted it, that those in
control have not decided that tho bust
ness was entitled to either permanent
or temporary relief.
"1t must be remembered that ali
normal conditions came quickly, that
expenses increased quickly. and that
with the most favorable inclination it
takes time for public commissions to
investigate, consider and determine.
That they are acting. and acting fav-
orably. we have already stated; that
