number OF gentlemen assembled, most OF
whom represented from 1fy thousand dollars OF
tho bonds OF the corporation The notwithstanding
TO the ca-was ntenued to be conference Of the first
mortgage bondhoders but it the representatives
of the second mortgage, fearing some chcanery, had
assembled and as they outnumbered the callers OF the
meeting, Mr. John Hoez as their representative, was
proposed as chairman and took his place. There
was some opposition and brief speeches pro and con
but at length tho report read The substance of
this amazing document follows:-The road in
litigation from Indianapolis, Ind to Pekin, ILL.,,
and is 202H miles in length The first portion
Of the road projected in 1866. Originally
1t was the Danville, Urbana, Bloomington and Pekin
Railway Company and Mr. G. r Griggs the presi-
dent This road to extend to Danville, III miles,
Bonds first issued for S. 600 000 and the mort
gage secured in the Farmers Loan and Trust Com
pany OF this city, the road dated April !, 1862
Afterward another corporation was formed called the
Indianapolis Charlottesville and Danvie Railroad, and

Railway Company. Then Decatur branch was pro-
iected and So 900 in bonds were issued for this

about $3 500 900. The total debt thus is about
sl56ooooo, including extension bonds held as col

After somo discussion, committee was appointed to
confer usual and the representatives of the second

the holders of first mortgage bonds, who were repre-
sened to hold about 81 000 900 of the dscreded secu
rites, met and appointed tho following committee to
