KRECH DENIES TRYING
TO WRECK RAILROAD
Believes Lawyers Filing Suit
knolO Charge Is False.

Alvin W. Krech, president of the
Equitable Trust Company. issued a de-
nial yesterday OF the charge that he con-
spired with directors of the Western
Pacific Railway Company and the old
Denver and Rio Grande Railway Com
pany to wreck the lauter road, as alleged
In the suit beirs brought by its stock
holders for 100000. 900 in damages.
So far as concerns the claim that l
conspired with the directors Of the Den
ver company or ths directors of the Old
Western Pacific Company to cause those
companies or either OF them to default
In the performance of their obligations.
or to accomplish anything else to the
detriment of those companies, there is
not only no foundation for the state
ment. but the circumstances under which
II has been made are such that ! have
no doubt whatever that its falsity is
known to the attorneys fling this suit"
eaid Mr.. Krech.
Most of the matters set forth In the
complaint have been before the courts in
various proceedings. The entire claim.
SO far as ! am concerned, is predicated
on tho theory that obligations assumed
by the Denver and the Old Western Pa
ctfic Company were not valid. AS a
matter Of fact, the validity Of these obli-
cations has been established and finally
determined by the Federal courts both
of this circuit, Of the Ninth Circuit and
OF the Eighth Circuit"

NATIONAL CITY GETS
SECOND NATIONAL
Newly Acquired Bank Will BE
Merged With Branch in
Madison So. District.

Charles z. Mitchell, president OF the
National City Bank. announced yester-
day that the institution had purchased
"a large majority of the stock Of the
Second National Bank" that the branch
at Twenty-sixth street and Broadway
would be transferred to $50 Fifth avenue
and that the two would become a single
unit in the National City Banks system
of branches. The plan is to strengthen
the position of the largest banking in
stitution in the United States so far as
the Madison Square district is concerned.
According to common report control
Of the Second National Bank had been
owned by William Rockefeller and the
James Stillman estate, but Mr.. Mitchell
would say only that the stock had been
largely owned by interests connected
with the National City Bank He added
that within few days an offer would
be made to the minority stockholders for
their stock on the same basis as control
of the institution was obtained. 1t is
understood that more than two-thirds
of the stock has already been acquired.
The Second National Bank Is in a
district where it serves large extile
trade, owns the building in which 1t Is
located and has grown rapidly in recent
years. w. A Simonson, vice-president
of the National City Bank, Is the presi-

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-The Chicago. Mil

Independently Of other lines. announced
to-day freight rate reductions ranging
as high as 40 per cent in some cases on
certain commodities shipped from the
Middle West to the Pacific coast and
destined for the Hawaiian Islands. The
reductions are made to meet Panama
Canal shipping competition and will
cover shipments from the East as soon
as arrangements can be made with
Eastern roads, 1t was announced.
The announcement declared that Mid
die Western railroads are suffering
from the competition of water route
from the Atlantic coast via the Panama
CanaP' which made It possible for Mid
die Western shippers to pay rail freight
rates to the Atlantic coast and then ship
by water to the West coast at less cost
than direct rail shipping from the Middle
West to the West coast, and that the
announced reductions would partly
meet this situation"

it might prejudice Chinese interests at

BOSTON & MAINE RATES STAND
Ten Per Cent. Reduction VIII Not
Apply, Says Hustis.

BosroN Nov. 22.--The 10 per cent.
reduction in freight rates on agricul-
tural products recently announced by
the Association OF Railway Executives
will not apply on traffic between points
In New England on the Boston and
Maine system. it was announced to-day.
The Boston and Maine. President
James 8. Eustis said In letter to the
American Fruit and Vegetable Growers
Association, has reduced and will con-
tinue to reduce rates where necessary
to etimulate industry, but contemplates
no general reduction. In the face of the
failure OF the railroad to earn it's fixed
charges In the last year by more than
$7,200,000. the management did not feel
warranted in voting IN favor Of volun-
tary rate -ductions, he added.
Tho reduction determined upon by the
railway executives, President Hustis
said, would be applicable to traffic into
New England and, with one exception, ia
traffic from New England. The Bangor
and Aroostook Railroad, which serves
the potato growing territory. had ad-
vised him. Mr.. Hustis said, that the re-
duc.ion would not apply to potatoes.

Is it worth the while? The wealth
