As regards. however. the recent sci qui’sltion of shares of the Boston an Maine by interests presumptively ai ‘ ence of com: grounds for believing that such is the case The last statement of the New Haven company showed that apart from funds on hand for the payment. of interest and dividends it had cash on hand amounting to 819,571.74i. There were also.239,824 shares of treasury stock in the New Haven's treasury which was the amount placed there some eighteen months ago in order to exchange New Haven shares with shares of the Boston and Maine under the original plan. These fig- ures show that in case the merger plan is renewed the New Haven has ample resources. Another element in the situation suggesting the purchase of additional Boston and Maine shares is the fact that at present the differ- sigteen points in the mar- ket value shares of the two coin- ponies would in e such a purchase very profitable. I such purchases have been made the stock undoubtedly has been vester in private hands not an- tagonistic to the Interests of the New, Haven corporation. W conu once CONDITION. . WASHINGTON.
