BY EDWARD c. STONE.

Washington stockholders of the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railway are
receiving copies of circular prepared
by Scott & Stringfellow, Richmond
bankers and brokers' aimed to furnish
ammunition for the minority share
holders in their fight against the re-
newed efforts of the Van Swerigen in
terests to bring about the merger Of
the c. & o. with the Nickel Plate,
Erie, Pere Marquette and Hooking
Valley railroads. The Richmond bank
ers take the ground that the terms of
the new Nickel Plate proposal still
are unfair to owners Of c. & o. stock.
and present exhaustive figures TO sup
port their claims. In case the sec
ond proposition comes before the In.
terstate Commerce Commission for
approval in its present form the
minority shareholders say they will
again present vigorous opposition to
the merger.
In 1925 the five roads earned a gross
operating revenue of 1858, 769 900, and
during the first seven months Of this
year showed an increase in this item
or $11.746,000. If this ratio is neither
increased nor reduced during the rest
or the year. the Richmond bankers
say, the 1925 gross operating revenues
will reach S37O.514.oOO, or more thar
VI 100000 a day. 1t is assumed that
after all operating expenses, taxes,
equipment, rentals. etc, have been
paid there will be the sum of $40
2oV,OO0 applicable to dividends. The
circular states that the G.. & O. will
ne expected to contribute $29,873,OO
10 thls sum, or more than 60 per
cent, but asserts that the c.. & o.

stocks of the new company. Hold.
ers OF the stock will be guara MT eed

ment says. adding that C. & o. stock
at present is earning 25 per cent.
Loss Of Control Stressed.
Another point discussed is the
amount of coal the Chesapeake and
Ohio transports. 1t is expected the
carrier will this year move $500, 600
tons. What advantages" the circu-
lar asks. accrue to the Chesapeake
and Ohio for turning over this
enormous traffic to the new Nickel
Plate Co.? Could it not barter and
trade this traffic at the Ohio River,
gateways for traffic in return from
other roads to better advantage tha an
by tying itself up to the exclusive

chesapeake and Ohio stockholders
now control their own property, but
would have less than one quarter in
terest in controlling the new prop
erty."
The Richmond bankers review a.
length the earnings of the FIVE rail
roads during the past five years
Upon this record of earnings" the
statement continues. ''it would seen
that if the Chesapeake and Ohio
stockholders desire to join. any plan
of >umification with the other roads

prospects of those companies. il
should be upon the basis of a lease of
their property to the company with

statement adds that the exact basis

OCTOBER TO SHOW TREND.

NEW YORK. September 81 P).-
October is expected in Wall Street to
furnish q definite indication of the
trend of Fall and Winter business
and the main price trend Of the stock
market over the next few months.
1t was not until October of last year
that it became apparent that the
volume of general business would
break all precedent without any strain
on the money market. In October.
1924, the so-called Coolidge bull mar
ket' hit its stride. In 1923 a sharp
decrease in production and untitled. or.
ders of steel in October signaled the
beginning of bear market. Incl
dentally the panic of 1907 came In
