BONDHOLDERS act.
C., II. 8 d. Fails to Pay Interest on
CTS ". and l.. ID. & ". Securities

The Cincinnati. Hamilton Dayton Railway
Company, in addition to defaulting on the July l
coupons of its per cent refunding bonds has also
failed to ray the July interest the first mort
gage and refundng bonds of the Cincinnati, Indian
apolis & Western Railway Company and the first
mortgage bonds of the Indiana. Decatur & West
ern, controlled roads. which themselves defaulted
those bonds, and a protective committee has
been formed at the request Of large number of
holders of the bonds OF the two subsidiaries.
The committee is composed OF William A. Read,
OF William A. Read s. Co: Frederick II. Ecker.
treasurer of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Com
pany; Thomas w. Lamont, second vice-presdent
of the Bankers Trust Company and Albert II.
Wiggin vice-president OF the Chase National Bank
of this city; George X. Johnson, of Philadelphia,
and C. e. Getting. of Boston. The Bankers Trust
Company Is to be the depostary for the bonds to
be deposited under the agreement with the bro
tective committee.
The Indiana Decatur & Western Is controlled by
the Cincinnati. Indianapolis & Western. the entire
capital stock OF which is owned by the Cincinnati
Hamilton & Dayton. The latter company guaran-
tees to both principal and interest tie outstand
ing si722,0o first and refunding bonds OF the I'm
cinnati. Indianapolis & Western of which it owns
$4,000. and guarantees also $4,000 of the outstand-
ing s., 1852, 900 Indiana. Decatur & Western 5s.
The committees representing holders of the Az
per cent notes and the per cent refunding bonds
of the Cincinnati. Hamilton & Dayton held joint
meeting yesterday, but took action The note
holders committee, it Will be remembered, has ar
ranged purchase the July coupons on the re-
funding bonds, and the belief in well informed
quarters is that that committee will upon the ex-
piration of the sixty days allowed the company
under the mortgage for making good the default
in interest take prompt action looking to fore
closure. The interest on these bonds has hereto
fore been by the issuance of receivers certif-
Gates and the failure to keep up the payments is
taken In Wall Street to indicate that the controlling
factors in the property not averse to fore
closure
