Erie Files Proposal
To Convert Bonds
Into Preferred
Preferred and Common
Would Be Exchanged
For New Common
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, Dec. 20-Erie Rail-
road proposed yesterday to make its
principal bondholders convert their
holdings into preferred stock and
new bonds of smaller denominations.
Its present preferred and COM
mon stockholders both would take
common stock. share for share, un-
der the reorganization plan Erie
filed in Federal Court here.
The road sought to halve its fixed
interest debt, and thereby reduce
the Sl4,000000 a year fixed charges
which drove 1t into defaults and
trusteeship last January.
The plan, with another filed in
October by group of bondholders,
will come before the Interstate Com
merce Commission January 4. The
bondholders' plan would require
present stockholders to put up new
money to obtain stock under the
reorganization.
Financing Differs.
However, Erie suggested that all
present stockholders, both preferred
and common, receive share for
share, without a new investment.
and proposed new bond issues and
collateral trust notes to obtain
needed cash.
The bondholders' plan, railroad
authorities said. would make neces-
sary heavy reinvestment by
Chesapeake g. Ohio If it desired to
retain the stock for which it paid
$45 900, 900 in obtaining 55 per cent
control OF the Erie. Erie's proposal,
these sources said. would reduce c.
& O's percentage TO around 36-stlll
enough for working control.
Robert R. Young, New York
financier. who is high in c. & o.
management, last May said c. g. o.
would "be ready to put cash on the
line when Erie is properly reor-
ganized."
Some of Eries securities, includ-
ing all equipment trust liens, were
left undisturbed in the plan sub
mitted yesterday. Maturities of
1888 and 1889 would be paid in
cash.

A famed Indian fighter and Scout,

the first man to carry the news of
Lincoln's Inauguration in 1881 to the

northern California in 1S49. he be-
came a Pony Express Rider at the
age of IL years. His route from Sac
ramentO to Carson City was cover
ed in "a hours using 81 horses.
Bronco Charley" as he is also
known, fought in three Indian wars,
took part in the Spanish-American
War. and went lover there" in the
World War when he was past so.
He. subtracted more than a score of
years from his age when he enlisted.
Now SO, Miller looks at least a
quarter of a century younger. He
is expected to appear here in his
Pony Express habit of buckskin,
wearing his hair long. a practice ac-
quired during his active days in the
West.
Played With Buffalo Bill
In later years he appeared with

Mayor James Walker of New York to
governors and mayors of far wes-
.ern states.
Mr.. Miller will relate his experien-
'es in the Far West when that cOun-
~ was being opened for civilization
nd his escapades with the Indians.
