a RAILROAD DEAL.
The Southern Secures the Louisville
Air Line Road.

Louisville, KY, April 6.-The South
ern Railway is now virtually the own
er of the Air Line railroad, through a
deal contaminated in Boston today
whereby it secured control of h en-
tire issue of the first mortgage bonds,
amounting to s2,000,00O. A telegram
was received in this city from a mem
Der of the bondholders' committee
saying that an offer had been made by
a representative of the Southern for
the bonds. The local bondholders,
who control a majority of the issue,
held a quick consultation and it was
decided to accept the offer.
In Indianapolis, today the general
bondholders and holders of the first
mortgage bonds brought action before
Judge Woods for an order of sale and
foreclosure, which was resisted by the
holders of the second mortgage bonds,
but the sale of the first mortgage will
tend to stop hat action.
