The much- talked-about Seaboard Air Line deal received a knockout blow in Balti more when the committee which has some 8,000 shares of the stock pool ed refused to turn it over to the syndicate headed by Mr. T. ; F. Ryan, of New York. " The decision was a great surprise to every one except President Hoffman and a few of his associates. It was a signal victory for the. Seaboard president. Mr. Hoffman declined to give any details, but a stockholder gave this view of the case s "President Hoff man's opposition to the sale was well known! and as soon as Mr, By an 'a representatives began to buy stock Mr. Hoffman 'a friends came (6 his support and v purchased '. air they could obtain, with tt view to pooling it for his benefit; We have, really had the upper hand in the fight from the; starts .but have said nothing. When the impression became genern at among the stockholders that Mr, Ryan really represented'Pr.Mor' gan & Co., the New' York bankers wnocoptroi tne poucy oi tae, ..aoutn era Railway Company, and that the sale oi the Sjeaooara wouia mean lis eventual control; by" the Southern railway, we gained ground rapidly, and were favored, rather than Mr. Ryan, in spite of the high -price he offered for stock." -ft'? v-- Jusi before leaving Portsmouth, Va.,' whither he went late this after noon on business connectea witn the system",, the executive of the Sea board Air LJne gave but the. follow- ing statement: " ' 'Under the, terms of the . pooling agrrementf" said President Hoffman, no sale of the pooled stock 6n be made without .the assent of three fourths of the - s-ock pooled. There are 8,321 shares in the pool,' and as less than, one-half of that' amount gave their assent, there" will be no sale, v . v ' ''i 'The .vote also shows .. that .the stockholders have, every confidence in the future of the property, and ia the" present management. .Tne im portance of keeping an independent line to the . south can scarcely be overestimated, ' arid no doubt - in fluenced the vote of Baltimore, . Nor folk and Portsmouth stockholders. Had this line got into the hands of the New York parties represented in the Southern j. railway, there would be but one line to the south." and that in the hand' of New York, and the securities would, have suf fered accordingly. t !f t ' "The future of the' system now looks very promising, as the first three months of the current fiscal year show large net gains over the corresponding months of 1895, and the fact that the Ryan syndicate has been willing to pay par, for even a minority interest shows the result of their study of the resources of the Seaboard Air Line. . , ' - ' "The publio, I thinkyis to be con gratulated that this line, is still in dependent, and will be run, id the future as in the past, looking to the interest of Baltimore and the south ern cities with which its trade re lations are the most intimate and im portant." ' - . In commenting upon the failure of the Ryan syndicate, the Manufac turers' Record will tomorrow say: "The failure of the New York peo pie to secure a. controlling interest in the Seaboard Air Line should cause profound thanksgiving, not only throughout the South; ; but wherever there exists any interest in the future of , this section. That the concentration of ownership of all railroads in the -Central South in New York bands would prove a se rious injury to this section, and eventually to all Southern roads' se- ..'-.j: .. it ' T the first place, competition is essen. tial to the t)e-5t interest of the South; it is essential to the'iuccess of its merchants, manufacturersand farm ers; it is essential to the best rail road work for. the upbuilding of its industrial resources, and the en couragement of immigration. The Seaboard Air Line has given this much-necded competition. No rail road company in the country lias done a better and broader work (or tha material advancement of the1 country tributary to it than has the Seaboard 1 In the second place the' purchase of the Seaboard would have been regarded by the Souhas the crobblins ud of the last Indenea't dent line north of J Atlanta, and; this would have given the politicians of the Populistic persuasion' 'a new fighting ground against rrailroadsj It ia safe to say that under such cir cumstances, legislation would have been enacted in theJCentral South of vast injury to all Southern railroad securities, and , thus to all Southern business interests."'";1 iy"'?!:!V1'i A H A Vt OTTT.T.nftT?'
