An additional working capital fund of $1,500,000 Is considered by the man n;;emMn advisable for the effective "nd prosperous operation of business, and to provide this fund a readjustment of the capitalization of the company has become necessary. Accordingly, a reorganiza tion commltiw, consisting of Cornelius >. liltss. A. D. Juilliard. J. JiJwaid Simmons, E. C. < on verse, William C.

Afc _ The prlnclca! feature of the plan is that the creditors and stockholders are to unite in tne pur chise of the new- first mortgage bonds In the pro portion of 20 per centum upon the holdings or creditors. 20 per centum upon the holdings of pre ferred plonk, and 5 per centum upon the holding or common stock; and that the creditors convert tneir holdings Into 7 per cent preferred stock having preference both as to dividends and upon liquida tion, find ho'.r.K further secured by the provision that no rrior'KHK* or Increase of preferred stoca shall evrr be made without the consent Of SO per centum of such new preferred stock. Therefore by the consummation of the plan tne reorganized company will continue operations with ampin ■war.King- capital, a mortgage indebtedness 01 but jl.500.0O). and with all present floating Indebted ness discharged. - . . v . * The holders of a very largo amount of indebted ness and etock of the company have already con sented to tno plan.

Mr. Johi.ston sued In June to prevent the merger 1 a ty,<" ground that th>- consolidation was agalnaf^ the l>e!>t Interest of th<- road. Justice Green-* haum. who heard the motion, denounced the pro posed action as an "unconscionable and Indefensl ble scheme. " Johnston and Henry Sampson, another director of the road, now allege that Albert H. Flint ami others who control the transit company, have dis regarded the court's order and have, gone ahead to carry out the original plan of consolidation. Mr. Sampson says Mr. Flint and the others nre uninc tua.OOO worth of Treasury bonds to raise the money for the deal. They have torn up, he de clares, about five miles of track between Cape Henry and Virginia. Beach, purchased Home years ago for the road, and are now changing that line to a trolley system to make It part of the. Chesa peake line. The afildavlt alleges that this act has impaired the value of the Norfolk and Southern's earnings by cutting off Cape Henry as a terminus, and th» loss, he avers, will fall on the shareholders who objected to th« mercer. Mr. Sampson alleges further that though the title Nugget" paid a dividend of 8 per cent for years, on July 1 lust, since Mr. Kllnt and the others got control, for th«. first time the road de clared no dividend. He alleijpD that to the best of his belief tho men In control are using the money that should have been declared In dividends, to promote their own scheme. For the first time In thirteen years, h<j* declares, no weekly report of the busings and expenses of the company has been drawn up and laid before the directors, though he and Johnston demanded It.
