Rumors that H. Harriman would resign from the presidency of the Union and Southern Pacific and leave for an extended abroad trip stirred Wall Street yesterday but were dismissed by Harriman associates. A rep said he was away on a yachting trip and would not be back this week. An associate noted Harriman is active and promised further action. It was learned he sailed for New London to watch Yale Harvard boat races. Union Pacific stock rose to 137% from 135% amid the chatter and last week’s 121% low.

Rockefeller Sees Hopeful Financial Outlook Amid Rail Demand
William Rockefeller told a Wall Street bureau the ongoing financial strain would pass quickly and prospects look bright.

He downplayed a global gold demand surge and money shortage.
