Failure to Meet Interest on
Bonded Indebtedness Brings
Crash to Big Road

CHICAGO, Aug. 20.-Federal juris-
diction now extends over the Southern
Indiana railroad company through the
appointment of a receiver IN the
United States circuit court for the
road, which has long been regarded
as the best of what are known as the
John r. Walsh railroads.
On a petition presented by counsel
for the First trust and savings bank of
Chicago, the representatives of the
Chicago clearing house association,
Judge Christian c. Kohlsaat, appointed
NJ. ]. Carpenter. formerly president of
the Chicago and Eastern Illinois rail-
road company, receiver Of the southern
company.
Failure to meet the interest on the
bonded indebtedness Of the road was
the approximate cause of the appoint
ment by the court. For months there
have been rumors that a receivership
was the only solution of the financial
difficulties of the road, which were
brought about by industrial depression.
