The young fellow had Not thought
of that, and even when Tinker Bob
warned him, he did not think that

about Jerry than anyone else did.
Tinker Bob's attention was called

half Of the present year we're we'll in
excess of the company's customary 8
per cent dividend rate, according to the
statement for the six months ended
June 80 issued by H. B. Thayer, presi-
dent, yesterday.
The surplus after charges and Fed

$685. a share earned on the SAL 1881 200

available with the corresponding period
Of last year, as the lines were under
Federal control at that time, but for

Answer-New York, New Haven &
Hartford Railroad guarantees the
principal and interest of the New
York, Westchester & Boston Az per
cent bonds. AS long as the New
Haven pays the coupons the bonds are
most attractive. The road itself has
never paid, in some years operating
expenses not even being earned. The
road was very extensively built and
the development of the territory
through which it runs has been dis
appointing, we think. What the rail-
roads generally will be able to do
under the new legislation is something
time only will tell. If you feel able to
speculate apon the future, that is New
Ravens ability to continue the pay
ment of tho interest, we believe YOU
stand good chance of being re-
warded. We consider Cities Service
Bankers shares speculative because
they are sensitive to earning power of
the company. We would not ATTEMPT
to forecast the dividend policy of the
company, which is largely engaged in
the production of petroleum.

Thousands of tourists are to be
