Segregation Of Rail and Coal
Holdings Proposed--New
Financing Planned.

The Delaware. Lackawanna and
Western Railroad yesterday hlsd sp-
plication with the Interstate Com
merce Commission for permission TO
seperate its railroad and coal proper
ties. II also requested that 10 be
permitted to issue additional stock
for its entire $50, 100000 surplus. AL
though the rail investment alone ex-
ceeds 81. 00e, 900, the present capitali-
zation is only $4,000. 900. In its
application the company says:
Since early in its history, appli-
cant has been fQnctioninE in the
dual capacity Of coal mining COM
PAM. holding in fee and by lease,
and operating large tracts Of an
thTsCite coal lands, and Of transpor-
tatiOn company. operating an i'm
portant system Of railroads.
Such ownership and operstion OF
coal lands has subjected it to laws
preventing it from expanding its
capitalization to keep pace with the
growth Of its assets. as it would
otherwise have had the right to do.
1t Is now ready to segregate its
coal properties from its rail proper
ties and to thereafter continue as
a transportation company only. and
thus place itself in position subject
to this commissions assent, to ac-
cept the benefits Of general laws of
Pennsylvania permitting II to in
crease its assets ana to what such
capitalization would doubtless have
been but for the operation Of such
restrictive laws
The declaration of dividends at
a rate abnormally high when com
pared with the dividend rate Of
other railroads operating m the
same territory has led to the uuwar-
ranted conclusion on the part Of the
public that applicant has earned and
Is earning a grossly excessive re-
turn on its investment in property
devoted 10 public Drc. An increase
in capital stock as is here proposed
would tend to remove this source OF
distrUst and suspicion"

TRADE SITUATION.

New York, Sept. 17l-Bradstree t
says in the weekly review:
Divergent and conflicting infu-
ences rob the trade situation of uni
formity. The broad general state
ments may be made that trade is,
as whole, not better than fair. In
textiles. the cotton goods branch
has rather held the center Of at
tcntion. due to further cuts in col
orSd :i, cottQps' ginghams. musllns and
tlckings by Eastern and Central
western houses. In raw wool.
something like disappointment is
expressed at the lower prices made
in Woolen goods not attracting bus
mess. Many wooden mills resumed.
Improvement in orders for cloth
ing Is reported at some centers. The
snoe trade notes very little change
from the Close-hauled buying pre-
Viously noted, and some lower
prices are reported being made by
Western factories The military
trades show more life. The supply
OF coal is none too burdensome as
yet. and instances of coke scarcity
are cited Lumber is auieter and
prices are softer
The price situation shows fur
ther progress in the direction Of
tablllzation. All the grains moved
lower this week, wheat on the
break in exchange carly. corn on
larger offerings of old crop. while
oats went off in sympathy Live
STOCK markets are firmer. cattle.

FIREMAN COUGHLIN
GIVES ASSISTANCE
Probably Saved House and Invalid
from Burning by Prompt Response
to Girls Call for Help.

While digging the snow away from one
of the village hydrants on South Canal
street, near the fair ground entrance this
morning William Coughlin, driver of the
village fire horses, responded to a call
for help which probably saved a house
and perhaps the life of an invalid.
The hydrant where Mr.. Coughlin was
at work is located directly across the
street from the home of Charles B. Park,
retired, who is confined to a wheel chair.
Mr.. and Mrs Roy B. Monroe, the former
being Mr.. Parks grandson, live with him
and Miss Olive Eager is employed there.
Mr.. Monroe works in j. E. Bushnell's
grocery store and Mrs. Monroe for the
Holstein- Friesian association.
This forenoon Mr. Coughlin's attention
was attracted to Miss Eager's calls for
help and he rushed into the house and
found that kerosene oil heater in Mr.
Parks room had drawn up and flame and
