Although representatives of the
national maritime commission and
Maritime Federation of the Paci-
fic said Monday at Seattle they
were closer together than at any
time before" observers along Ia
coma's waterfront expressed doubt
that the commissions freighter
Coldbrook would arrive at Port
piers as scheduled Tuesday to
stow cargo for the Orient.
Doubt the ship would be shifted
to Tacoma Tuesday was expressed
after commission and union repre-
sentatives admitted that as far as
the main issue" involving a labor
dispute over the vessel is con-
cerned, mo practical progress had
been made.
The two groups were to confer
again Monday afteroon in an ef-
fort to bring about an agreement
whereby the idle freighter could

Victory for Young
Seen in Resignation
Of Guaranty
Bank Will Give Up
Trusteeship for Two
Allegheny Bond Issues
By the Associated Press.

b. the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 15.-A vic
tory for Robert R. Young, Cleveland
capitalist, in his two-year fight to
gain control Of the $4,000, ,0O0, 900
railroad empire of the late O. P. and
M. j. Van Sweringen was seen by
Wall Street circles today.
Announcement by the Guaranty
Trust Co. yesterday that it would
resign by April IA trusteeships for
two issues of the Allegheny Corp.
bonds apparently restored control
Of the holding company to Mr..
Young, its chairman.
Because Of an unusual indenture
in the bond issues by the Won Swer-
ingen brothers, the Guaranty Trust
has been able for long time to vote
the securities held by the Allegheny
Corp. This indenture gave the trust
company voting rights when collat-
eral declined below $50 per cent Of
the face value of the bonds.
Forced Larger Board.
The trust company did not inter-
fere with the railroad policies of the
Van SWeringens, although a default
IN the collateral ratio occurred be-
fore their deaths but later opposed
Mr. Young and. over his protests,
forced an enlargement Of the Board
OF Directors of the Chesapeake &
Ohio Railroad.
Through its ability to vote the Al
leghany Corps securities, the
trust company held control of the
profitable c. & O., the Erie, the New
York, Chicago & St. Louis nickel
Plate) and Wheeling & Lake Erie,
the Pere Marquette and the Missouri
Pacific.
The trust companys announce
ment said it was resigning under the
1ndenture securing the collateral
trust S per cent bonds of Allegheny
Corp, due in 1949 and 1850. The in
stitution. which also yielded to the
corporation $75 900 cash it had held
lmpounded. will continue as trustee
for third bond issue due in 1914.
Would Rehabilitate Firm.
1ne S'oUUU Will be used by Young
to further recapitalization plan he
favors to rehabilitate the huge hold
ing company.
The trust companys action fol-
lowed demand last Friday by Mr..
Young's forces that S645 900 in cash
impounded behind the 1914 bonds
be released on the grounds that a
recent rise in c. g. o. shares had
raised the collateral ratio above $50
per cent.
The Guaranty Trusts statement
did not disclose what institution
would succeed it in the profitable
role of trustee for the other two
Allegheny bond issues, which are
still shy by a considerable margin
the $50 per cent collateral value
fixed by the indentures.

sre cial Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 15.-Basic
conditions have shown a rather
marked improvement this week
following their upturn of a week
ago, according to the Alexander
Hamilton Institute.
The estimate Of the normal de-
mand for steel in 1899 has conse-
quently been revised upward from
1873 per cent of capacity last week
to 39.5 per cent this week, the high
est estimate made so far this year.
Actual output, however. has de-
clined from the 1899 high Of 558
per cent of capacity last week to
55.l per cent this week. Although
the output is still abnormally large,
it is questionable whether the cur
rent setback represents the begin
ming Of a definite corrective move
ment.
The index of business income
for the week ended February Is
rose to 76.7 from 1873 in the previous
week The index of business expenses
remained unchanged at 1914. Ex-
penses thus exceeded income by
81 points as against an excess of SO
points in the previous week. This
represents the most favorable show
ing so far this year.
In the week ended February Is
the price index Of farm products,
which reflects the national income,
rose to a new high for 1899. The
price index of manufactured goods
did not advance by a corresponding
amount. Consequently, the purchas-
ing power index rose from ISL to
758, the highest figure so far
reached in 1899.
