Railroad Matters Big Suit Against Huntington Chicago & Atlantic
New York Aug 17 Judge Bench issued an order to show cause why an injunction should not be issued against the Central Trust Company, C P Huntington, the Southern Pacific and others to restrain issuing 10 million dollars of stock of the reorganized Houston & Texas Central. The suit alleges the Central Trust assessment of 7140 a share was unnecessary and prohibitory to force transfer of stock to Huntington interests, including disputed claims of Huntington firms. The Financial Chronicle details the Chicago & Atlantic reorganization plan and early earnings, while GA R veterans face ticket restrictions and Western lines address Grand Army return tickets. Western Passenger Association acts on scalped Grand Army tickets. Manitoba crop reports spur Northern Pacific extensions and a 100 year lease with Manitoba company. Colorado Midland and Toledo, St Louis & Kansas City bonds added to NYSE list.

Harlem River bill debate reshaped by bridge amendment
In the Senate on August 17 the Harlem River bridge issue dominated river and harbor talks. Hawley proposed open bridges with no draws to speed New England access to New York City, while Reagan dismissed the plan as impractical. Frye urged commerce importance, noting Harlem River traffic last year reached 5,500,000 tons valued at $12,000,000. The Hawley amendment was rejected 22 to 26, and the drawbridge proposal was tabled, with the conference committee to decide.
