In the Matter of LOUISIANA & NORTH WEST RAILROAD COMPANY, Debtor.
    District Court, S. D. New York.
    May 10, 1939.
    John S. Sheppard, of New York City, for debtor.
    Beekman, Bogue, Leake, Stephens & Black, of New York City (Eugene W. Leake, of New York City, of counsel), for Beatty Committee.
    Hunt, Hill & Betts, of New York City (L. J. Hunt, of New York City, of counsel), for Middle States Petroleum Corporation.
    Newman & Bisco, of New York City, (Hastings S. Morse, of New York City, of counsel), for Barnes Committee.
    Jonah J. Goldstein and Eli Bennett Levy, both of New York City, for Independent Bondholders.
   GODDARD, District Judge.

The amended plan certified by the Interstate Commerce Commission under date of October 27, 1938 is, with some minor changes which I believe are desirable, substantially like the plan suggested by the Court in its opinion of July 30, 1938. 36 F.Supp. 636. For the reasons outlined in that opinion, this amended plan is approved.
