directors of that road elected In the interest VI tho
Atchison, Topeka and santa Re holdings, leaves TN
settled an interesting point in corporation hw Inc
fncts are these: The $4,5OO00O OF first preferred

deud OF per cent and agreement that tile interest,"
charges should take precedence Of any sub~e-
oucntly incurred fixed charges. In other WORDS
the road were subsequently mOrsneed the interest,"
on the mortgage could not be paid until after the cuhu
atve dividends Of the first preferred stock were PAID.
The Atchison people got control OF the common

.come in out OF tue we,' forming the Kimball com.
mlttce They were offered per cent bonds secured
by general mortgage on the ST. Louis and san

main reliance on the point that the issue OF any SUCK
