Southwestern a direct line to Texas points. V. 71, p. 1219; V. 74, p. 936.
Stock.— In addition to the amounts outstanding in table, $5,230,600

In Aug., 1902, the St. Louis & San Francisco RR. gave in exchange
for the common and preferred stock its stock trust certificates at the
rate of $100 thereof for each $100 share. V. 75, p. 289. In January,
1904. all of the $7,217,800 common and $4,171,700 of the $6,830,700 preferred had been exchanged on this basis. The St. Louis &
San Fran, has the option to retire the trust certificates at any time at
$250 per $100 common stook trust certificate and $150 per $100
pref. stock trust certificate, payable in gold, and obligates itself to
pay off the entire issue in 40 years from date at the same rates meanwhile obligating itself to pay 10 p. c. dividends on the common and 6
per centum on the preferred trust certificates, respectively, these
amounts being equivalent to 4 per cent on the principal sum to be
eventually received in payment therefor. Upon failure to pay any
dividend within 30 days after demand therefor, any holder may surrender the certificates to the trustee and receive the shares represented
thereby. See also V. 75, p. 289, 393, 1031.

[Farmers' Loan <fe Trust Co. trustee]— see a bxtract of deed V.62, p. 89,
and secures !$35,000,000 prior lien and $140,000,000general lien bonds.

The position of the first consolidated mortgage is substantially as
follows: It Is a first Hen [mortgage or collateral, the prior lien bonds,
however, preceding the general lien bonds] upon the company's chief
on»l properties (except Penn. Coal Co.), upon its water,transportacion
lines (including valuable terminal properties appurtenant thereto),
and upon a number of profitable local lines in New Jersey and near

upon the railroads leading to all the coal properties, upon the terminals at Jersey City, upon the Buffalo New York & Erie Railroad
(tbe main line to Buffalo) and the Buffalo terminal properties other
than those upon which it is a first lien, and upon the entire line from
Salamanca to Chicago; It is a second consolidated mortgage upon
the lines between Piermont and Dunkirk (447 miles).
