KtUlon Dell an Jet for Cmmot TEN PER CENT DIVIDEND WILL NOT BE. CUT la thm Trlmton mt Blk Wall tra4 erturtr wttk It Sta ares fit Flaaa elal Fmlae. A fw days afo The Bee printed Brutes quoted by high Wall street authority to how that tha Burlington frees .aaj-nlnra for tha current fiscal year at tha praaant ratio would ba 180.000.000. That him au thority any, from praaant Indloatloma, with thraa-fourdia of tha fiscal year gone, tha Union Faclflo ought to hava gross earn li.ge of rs.oce.ono or 174.000,000, with net earnlnge of not less than I. 000, 000. Ao cording to Ita estimate, thla authority aayi tha Union Paolflo ahould ahow a reel sur plus thla year aruivlant to U par oant earned on lta common atook. Tha rumor ha been circulated In finan cial circ!a that It la queetlonable whether tha Union PeoMo will continue to pay It 10 per cent dividend thl year and thla rumor has reached tha eare of many In vestor. Nobody knowa what tha Union Faaino director are coin to do until they do It. If tha dividends ware warranted laat fall by tha earning of the road they are more than warranted now, says tha Wall Street Journal. Ham EapanSa mm Maoh. 1 Ko great railroad In tha laat fiscal year has expanded Ha dividend paying capacity te . an extent equal to the expansion In dividend paying capacity of the Union Fe elflo. Man who are In a poattlon to know ay that the Idea of a out in tha dividend of the Union Paolflo la preposterous and not 'Worthy of notloa. Any atudent of values can demonstrate to hie own satisfaction that there la no mora reason to believe that the Union Paolflo will out lta 10 per cent dividend as far aa one now can see, than to believe that many other stocks which might ba named will out their ( per cent, or per cent, or T per cent dividend, add tha Journal. Few people really appreciate tha work that la being done In the Union Pacific and Southern Paclflo thla year. Soma In vestor who saruttnlsed values mora than man who live close to the Wall street tape, have acked tha Wall Street Journal whether It consider that the earning of the Haniman Una thla year are a myth. It la easy to aee why eome people ahould think the earnlnga are a myth, but there Is no doubt that they are a grim reality. Fifty Million Available. The present Indications are that when tha Union Paclflo geta down to paying lta fixed charges this year It will have earned over JM.ODO.OOO, applicable to those charges.. The earnings of the Southern Paclflo, how ever, are a different matter. Over 45 per cent of all the surplus earnlnga of the Southern Paclflo railroad belongs to tho Union Paclflo road. The Southern Paclflo this year will earn not far short of 29. 000,000 In round figures, applicable to the payment of Ita common dividends. The common dividends nt ( per oent call for lea than 110,000,000, leaving a balance which will probably be earned over com mon dividend thl year from $18,000,000 to 119,000,000. Forty-five per cent of thla figure, or fully 18,000,000, really belong to the Union Paclflo and Is controlled by thla road absolutely. Under the present conservative manage ment of the Southern Paolflc, however, the policy la to turn this surplus back Into tha road, yet it oould In case of need be turned over to Its legitimate owner, the Union Pacific: and thus considering it.
