As l breezed into the strand theatre
yesterday, lovely picture was all staged
for my sight
An impromptu, stage banked with feath-
cry palms, was made az one side OF the
movie screen, and a dark eyed girl,
dressed in a clinging rosecolored gown,
with a red rose caught in the coil of her
hair, was hugging a violin beneath her
chin, and playing Rehfeld's Spanish
Dance (Of course, 1 didn't know that
was what she was playing at the time,
but it was SO pretty that l made it my
business to find out)
She was Miss Katherine Stang, who
comes south from New York, whore she
mas paved in concerts, and at the Win
ter Garden, to play at the larger 5. A.
lynch theatres.
There was nothing for me to do but
meet that girl, and find out how she
happened to know so much about a VIC
lin So back of the rose-coiored curtains
went little Anne and met her. And
went to tell you, she is Just as sweet
and pretty, and as unaffected by her
fame as if she didn't realize what hit
she had made in all of the towns She
has played in,
Miss 5 ang is only IS years of age now

that II they let him alone he would take
the Erie railroad and Notwithstanding
its burden of debt and heavy capitali-
cation, SO handle 1t as to make it q
dividend payer and sthus demonstrates
that It's capital fairly represented It's
value.
Tho Erie Railroad company has since
} Mr.. Harriman's death been utilizing
almost every cent of its available in
come for improvements. It has made
contributions from income to capital ae-
count. The stockholders have received
no dividends. This policy, according to
/ Mr. Decker, has substantially squeezed
+ out all the water that was I'm tho cap
/ llal and has made It's capital today
/ fairly representative Of its value
! Men of capital about 70 years ago were
persuaded to invest in the construction
Of railroad stretching from New York
I city northerly to Albany, paralleling for
most OF the distance within stones
throw the Hudson river These men
we're severely criticized for 1t was said
that they were ovlivious of the fact that
a few miles to the east of their proposed
railroad the Harlem railroad was in
ouperation from New York city as far
north as Chatham, while on the other
side there was the Hudson river which
offered successful composition on ac-
count of cheap rates for freight between
New York and Albany
In spite of these monitions capital
was furnished and the railroad was con-
structed. 1t was spoken of as having
been over-capi talized because there APP
peared to be no great value in the
property At last Commodore Wander
bilt came into possession of it and
united it with the New York Central
system. It's value was instantly greatly
enhanced. Commodore Vanderbilt was
accused OF having infused some forty
millions of water into the capital stock
when he declared stock dividend. But
Il was demonstrated that the entire cap
tal did not begin to represent the actual
or inherent value.
Now Mr.. Decker states that the New
York Central line from New York city
to Albany, which was the original Hud
son River railroad, with it's three and
four tracks and with its Albany and
New York terminals, could not be re-
produced today for the total capitaliza-
ton of the entire New York Central be-
fore that corporation took over the
Lake Shore.
Gradually the public is learning that
the assertion so often made that the
railroads OF the United States are so
heavily overcapitalized and that the
ca pital of many of them represents
water is not true and when there 10
good understanding of this fact it will
probably be all the easier to perfect
legislation which will be satisfactory to
the railroads, to the public, to the state
and the federal government.

Local police asked the Olean po-

yesterday. His rooming place was
located and after an all-night watch
Policemen Gilmore and Thomas
Fitzpatrick went to the house. While
Fitzpatrick was in Snyder's room,
the young man entered and was
placed under arrest by Gilmore. The
policeman neglected to use hand
cuffs and as they stepped onto the

and ran.
In addition to the name which he
assumed at Olean, Snyder is known
as Harry Mckay and Harry Poulton.
He is wanted here on the charge of
having forged two checks in De-

be arrested and fled to Baltimore
