OF NEW YORK
BIG DEVELOPMENTS
EXPECTED IN DENVER
Announcement About Road
Is Probable To-day.

Important developments before the
close of this month anecting the future
of the Denver and Rio Grande Western
Railroad Company are predicted by
banking interests in close touch with
the company's affairs. 1t is understood
that Sutro Bros. G Co. will make an an

chairman of the protective committee of
the first and refunding per cent. bonds
of the road. said yesterday that the
situation might come to q head before
the end of October He indicated that
the various committees are functioning
in accord.
Lacking definite information TO ac-
count for the recent strength and activ-
ity in Denver and Rio Grande bonds.
Wall Street was inclined to the opinion
that further offers either by Western
Pacific or Missouri Pacific are being
planned through the efforts of these two
systems to acquire control of the Denver
and Rio Grande property, now In the
hands of a receiver. Comment apparently
favors linking up with Missouri Paci-
fic since. 1t is explained. such an ANAL
gamation would give the former a posi-
tion as a link in "A trunk line system,

Unf1uGE StcOl Orders.

The United States Steel Corporations
statement on thS arnNuS,t of untitled
tonnage as of September 80 Is expected
to show the largest gain in some years.
Some estimates place the increase dur
ing September between 100000 and $780,.
600 tons. while others put 1t as high as
100000 tons. The increase will be due
mainly to the rush Of railroad companies
to place orders for steel rails in che last
week of September in anticipation of
the SO advance in the ton price of this
product, which became effective October
1. 1t is estimated that about 1900. 900
tons were contracted for before October
/, large portion of the orders going to
United States Steel Corporations sub
salaries. OF the foregoing total $4,000
tons were ordered in the last week OF
September.

Cars on Home Lines.

Dy way of answer to the charges of
Canadian railroad officials that many
of their freight cars are on foreign
lines the ssemi-monthly report of the
American Railway Association shows
that as of September Is last 9S6 per
cent of the total American railroad
owned freight cars were on home lines.
while 904 per cent. of the cars of Cana
dian roads were on line. The figures
are regarded as a direct refutation of
the assertions of Canadian rail execu-
tives that American carriers are hold
ing Canadian box cars this side of the
border, thus. hampering the movement

American Steel Foundries.

Earnings of American Steel Foundries
in 1922 are expected to be approximately
$3,000,00O after charges and taxes, ac-
cording to r.. p. Lamont, president of
the company. This would coSer the
dividend requirements on the company's
pr eferred and common stocks, with a
margin. of nearly 100000 to spare. Ex-
cluding two war years, when the COM
pany was doing special work, untitled or
ders now on hand are the largest in the
company's history. The management ex-
poets that the rate of operations in the
next six months will run close to ca
pacity

tember, 1921. Trade reports indicate
that October's business will be good,
although considerably under that of the
summer months, in reflection of the
usual slackening, at this season Of the
year.

with their shop employees was forth

TEDIOUS TASK OF
 RETURNING HEROES
Bodies Of American Soldiers il
 France All Being Returned

Paris, March lr.-The work Of re- turning to the United States the bodies of American soldiers who died in France was completed today With final shipment of 1,50o bodies from Rrest for New York. This brings the total number of American bodies re- turned to 45,025.
 Difficult Problem.
 The simple announcement of the completion of the task marks the close of one of the most trying and difficult problems ever placed before the American army. The Amerlcan Graves Registration Service, the spe- cial branch of the army organized Tor the purpose, began work in February, 1920.
 Agents of that service will now go to England and assemble 97 Amerl- can bodies destined for shipment to America. These were American sol Hers who died in widely-scattered parts of Ireland Scotland Wales ana England. Five hundred other bodies of Americans whose relatives have de- cided to leave them in England, Will Ebe concentrated in a beautiful little nermanent cemetery at Brookwood Surrey, England, the British govern ment having gwen the site. This work will be completed by July
 Plan Beautiful Plot
 An extensive scheme of beautlhca- ton has been developed by special Fine Arts Commission for the four cemeteries in France which are to De the permanent resting places of near ly 3O,00O Americans who fell in the world war. Original plans called for the expenditure of nearly $3,ooo'ooo out in the interest of government economy this sum has been reduced to about s1,o00,000.
 Work will begin immediately after this appropriation is made by con -ress. Colonel H. F. Rethers, who has been in charge of the Graves Regis tration work, probably will direct the work.
 The four Fields of Honor are Sures- nes cemetery, near Paris; Bony, near St. Quentin; Beleau Wood, near Chateau-Thierry, and the Argonne or ltOIndSIlt CtillSlClS, hSoi sous- Montfaucon.
 For the latter a scheme has been worked out which will make it very much like Arlington cemetery. Each cemetery is to have rest house and chapel for visitors and every grave will be marked with uniform head stone.
 French Decorate One of the most touching features of the four cemeteries has been the way in which French people have made them their own. Sunday never goes by with out scores of French peo- pie visiting them and placing flowers on the graves. This manifestation of friendship and appreciation caused many relatives to leave the bodies in France.
 The beautifying of the Fields of Honor will take two years but great deal of preliminary work has already been done and the cemeteries in their present state are impressive.
 When the Graves Registration Serv- ice began it's work, the bodies were in more than 500 cemeteries scattered in |every part of France, AlsaceLorraine and Germany. Several thousand men were employed underline direction of American army officers
 Concentration of bodies in the four Fields of Honor has been completed The Graves Registration Service will maintain a permanent office in ParS for the convenience of American visitors.
