another batch of certificates amounting
to $3.50, 600 for the purpose of adding to
the present equipment of the roads by
the purchase of new locomotives and
rolling stock. The other on the face
of it, would seem to be a backset for
the receivers, in that 1T gives to certain
OF the bondholders the right to sue i'll
the courts of Indiana Illinois and Ohio
to foreclose the mortgage on that por-
ton of the system known as the "Chi-
cago division" and permits them to
secure separate receivers for that sec
ton of the road, if the state courts
deem such step advisable. The re-
ceivers, however, still hold big trump
card, for the order permitting suits
in state courts expressly stipulates that
the new receivers, if appointed, shall
not attempt to take actual possession of
the Chicago branch without having
first applied to the United States courts
in this city, for permission to do so.
This practically leaves the matter of a
separate receivership to be fought out
in a court which has already shown
itself favorable to the present manage
nent, and at least, prevents the imme-
diate disintegration of the system.

ters of American Revolution.

Washington, Feb. 23.-The Daughters
Of the American Revolution were late in
opening today's proceedings. There was
considerable confusion in the audience

officer Mrs Stevenson had much difficulty
in preserving order and quiet. The i'm
portant business Of the day was the sub

clusions of the committte to recommend

ton of chapter names, which has caused
much confusion. Chapter records and
the issuing Of charters were recommend
ed to be placed under one officer to obvi-
ate duplication.
The recording secretary general, Char
lotte E. Main of this city, reported a
membership of $4,000. gain of 5000. or
