Richmond Terminal Plan.

Drexel, Morgan & Co. have an
nounced a supplementary plan of reor-
ganization for the Richmand Terminal
and the subordinate companies, which
has some important notifications.
Seven roads are excluded from the
plan, four roads in the Richmond and
Danville get an increased allotment of
new preferred stock, and the assess
ments on Terminal and East Tennes-
see common stock are reduced to 90
per cent.
The committee say that although
about 90 per cent. of the Richmond
Terminal stock has been deposited and
the assessment so for as called has been
paid on the bulk of it, and also, though
to a lesser extent, on the East Tennes-
see, Virginia and Georgia stocks, a
general feeling has prevailed that in
view of the change in financial condi-
tons the committee should fairly en-
deavor to tighten the assessment and to
allow bonds for some portion thereof.
Briefly stated, the important changes
in the modified Richmond Terminal
plan are as follows:
The Cincinnati extension and Mem
phis and Charleston were excluded
from the plan some time ago, and a few
minor lines are now excluded. The
modified plan embraces about 1900
miles, and the securities to be issued
are adjusted to this new mileage.
The amounts outstanding, after the
reorganization, are estimated at s101,-
900, 900 bonds, SIS, 900, 900 preferred
stock, and 1920, 200, 600 common stock.
The fixed charges are scaled down TO
4 LOO, 900 in 1891, and 81, 700,00 in
1895. In 1886 and afterward they are
restored to their level under the origi-
nal plan.
TIE reorganization will be pushed
vigorously to a conclusion. The Rich
mond Terminal is practically wound
up and all its assets are owned by the
committee. A decree of foreclosure for
the Richmond and Danville is expected
in a few days. A decree for the East
Tennessee is in course of preparation.
Ample funds are provided for pur-
chasing additional equipments and 9th
err Improvements.
The talk of trouble with the secured
floating debt proves to have had little
foundation ard it is paid off with a few
trifiing concessions.

FRIDAY EVENING, MAR ?, 1894.

THIS COUNTRY poses as the Land of
