Collapse the stock to that level is aecepted as public notice of re-organisaMon soop to come. The Denver has involvedt itself so deep ly by guaranteeing the interest on the Western Fkcific bonds that it has been compelled to suspend its divi dends. Present management of the Hissouri Pacific which includes the Denver and the Western Pacific is understood to be good but there are some things that even good manage- ment cannot overcome. Lehigh Valley and ^ Louisville ft Nashville declared nothing more than the regular dividends^lthough many persons ^expected extra dividends. New York Central on Friday Is sued a notice to bondholders o( the Lake Shore that merger of the Lake Shore was contemplated and asking their permission. It ii^ understood that this mer|^r^..will nm be carried out immediately but the company wants to put itself tn'position to tase advantalge of conditions for doing cheap financing;" A big bond issue may be expected from the central, therefore, in the near future. If Lake Shore or Michigan Central merges with Central, Central will have to issue bonds guaranteeing the bonds of the merged properties.
