New York, Sept. 20. Confirmation was obtained In Wall street of representatives to the effect that II. II. Rogers was heavily interested in the Tidewater railway project. According to the stories previously circulated, upwards of 40 per cent of Mr. Rogers'

fortune has been involved In the Tidewater investment. It was reported that the personal obligation incurred amounted to $40,000,000. It can be

stated positively that the sum is much larger than the amount, named; also that the situation has been entirely cleared up. Forced to Sell Gilt-Edged Stock. In order to meet the demands made upon him in connection with the con

struction of the railroad, Mr. Rogers was forced to dispose of a large amount of investment stocks at a sacrifice. All during the recent decline in prices the vice president of the Stand

ard Oil company sold gilt-edged stocks such as Standard Oil, Consolidated Gas, Union Pacific and St. Paul. Some five or six years ago, against the advice of his friends. Mr. Rogers started to build in West Virginia a low-grade road, which would parallel the Norfolk and Western. His object was to carry coal and luniber to Tidewater. The line was to be 443 miles long. Only 125 miles have been completed. In Position to Gain End. Only a few months ago, in order to raise $10,000,000 for the Tidewater road, II. II. Rogers issued his personal notes, secured by $20,000,000 first mortgage bonds. 10,000.000 stock and $10,000,000 dividend or interest-paying collateral. These 6 per cent notes were indorsed by II. II. Rogers personally, . Railway officials who have watched the construction of the road with intense interest from the beginning say that the project, even at this stage, is more or less problematic. It is confidently believed, however, that with the sacrifices already made ia dispos

ing of high-priced securities Rogers is in a position to gain his end and see the mileage completed. Controls Lumber and Coal Lands. It was learned some months ago that the Standard Oil man and his associates had bought up all the available lumber and coal lands in West Virginia. These purchases amounted to thousands of acres and will in some future time supply the Tidewater road with traffic. W. N. Page is president of the Tidewater railway. When completed, the road will extend from Deepwater. W. Va., on the Kanawaha River to Sewall's Point, near Norfolk, Va, The authorized stock Is $35,000,000.' The first

mortgage 5 per cent bonds, none of which have been placed on the mar

ket, are issuable as follows: $33,500,000 for the construction of the line from Deepwater to Sewall's Point, 442 miles .single track. For each additional mile of single track on the main iine $75,000 bonds ma be issued; $50,000 a mile for branch lines and $50,000 for main line second track.
