RefundinG Committee in Rock Island
Wants More Money.
New York. Aug. 1.-THE decision
under which the Rock Island refund
Ing bondholdsrs' committee lis permit
ted to fine foreclosure bill. may re-
suit in increasing the assessment on
the stock from sso.ooo.oo0 to $4,000
600, 1T was learned today.
The refunding committee, OF which
Charles A. Peabody is chairman. will
not press the foreclosure action AT
present An attempt to reach an agree
nxent with the reorganization COM
mittee will be made. IL this fails, the
Peabody committee will file bill of
mertis-the first step towards foreclos-
ure.
This committee contends a $4,000
900 assessment is Inadequate and that
$50. 900. 900 would come nearer the
propertys requirements. 1t was
pointed out today that the increased
assessment probably would be ap-
proved by the Amster faction, which
has opposed foreclosure. The present
plan would call for an assessIn emit of
$40 a share, for which preferred stock
would be given. The debenturs hold
ers plan is to buy the property, not
under foreclosure, but under a credi-
tors claim. subject to the refunding
1 per cent mortgage.
