THE ktest from the scheme for the re.
organization OF the great Santa Fe rail
road system is favorable to its success
1t is believed that an amicable settlement
will be arrived at, which will in all likeli
hood do away with the necessity for re-
ceiver and foreclosure. The scheme is
simply rs follows: All bondholders Of
every description (and there are sixty.
seven different mortgages on the proper ty
shall exchange their bonds for new gen,
eral mortgage per cent bonds and new
per cent income bonds, the different
values Of the old bonds being paid for by
the proportion in which the exchange i.
made. The present fixed charges Of the
company are in round numbers Sill ,00O,.
900 per annum. Under the new scheme
they would be about $7,50O,000. This
sum is fairly within tie earning capacity
Of the company in the worst Of times, SC
that the interest on the bonds may be con-
sidered safe.
1t is to be hoped that the plaa will be
successful. The Santa Fe system is the
main transportation line to and through
New Mexico. The more prosperous it is
and the more business it.does, the better
for New Mexico.
