V Although Harrlman Is In Europe on a vacation, the Union Pacific has raised $.'i0.000.000 In caah since his departure nmc weeks sgo. What Mr. Harrlman will do with all this money la undetermined, but It Is thought In many quarters that the money will be used In making Improve ments, among which Is a headquarters building for Omaha. This money was raised by the sale of tlO.W.OOO worth of Atchison stock and irC.VW.OUO of Southern Pacific convertible bonds at a private sale, with a profit of something like J2.000.000. The reason for selling Is not given out by Mr. Har rlman or by any of his associates, but It Is thought the Atchison was sold because of the activity of Uncle Sam In forcing the suit against the1 Ilarrlman lines for buy competing lines. Harrlman nceils millions to carry on the vast undertakings he has under way. and perhaps thought it might be well to raise the money by getting out from under a deal which had submitted the Harrlman management to criticism on the ground of monopolistic Intentions. The Atchison Is a co-defendant In the government suit against the Harrlman lines, and It Is alleged that the close relationship between the two roads Is made a prominent Issue in the litigation. ' AtchUon Not Needed. It may be taken for granted that the Union Pacific's interest In Atchison has been made to serve Its purpose and Is no longer essential to the success of the schemes the Harrlman party has in mind. There Is the further fact that by the sale of the two big blocks of practically fixed Interest bearing securities the Union Pa cific has recently raised close to fO.Ou0,OU0 of cash, entailing a corresponding loss of revenue Investment, but not Increasing the company's capital obligations or fixed charges. Hoth these latest Union Pacific transac tions appear Jo render less likely the long discussed "segregation" of Its investment holdings. One of the principal Items which might hnve figured In such an arrangement bus be-n disposed of, while Union Pacific's pi oportlonate voting power in Southern Pacific has been at least potentially re duced from 46 per cent to about 38 per cent by the sale of tyie convertibles. There Is good authority for believing that Union Pacific Is In process of disposing of some other investment acquired about the time of the Atchison purchase. If this proves to be the case It would not be sur prising to find later on that the company has been concentrating Its outside invest ment capital on not more than two chief connections with the eautern seaboard and the Gulf, all with the prupose of solidifying the vast transportation machinery which goes by the name of the Harrlman system. Projects In View. Harrlman Is Just completing his new road into Mexico and this will require money, not only to build, but to colonize. This -will not be permitted to drag, as was the settlement of the western states, but the moat modern methods will be used to In duce tillers of the soil to take the land and make the entire country produce ton nage for the Harrlman lines to haul. Several branch lines and undertakings In Nebraska and Colorado and Wyoming have been hanging fire for some time, waiting for the time when Mr. Harrlman thought he had the spare money to spend. One of these is the Omaha-Lincoln line, surveys for which were made two years ago. The Union Pacific has had four different sur veys made for a line between Omaha and Lli.coln. one of these contemplated branch ing off fiom the Union Pacific at Ullmore and another was to use the Lane cut-off to the west end of the big fill and then make a bee line for Lincoln. The remaln d r of the Omaha-Kansas City line Is prac tically completed. The Topeka & North western Is nearly finished and considerable money has been spent on the line between Lincoln and Marysville. Mr. Ilarrlman said when last in Omaha that he needed money for double-track work and for equipment. Both of these have been fairly well supplied, and per haps when he hears the Jingle of that M, Onl.tuO In his Jeans he will order work to sunt ut unce on the new headquarter building.
