THE CHICAGO THE RAILROADS. MARTETTA & CINCINNATT. The Philadciphin Kailiway World (the Penn- pyivania Ralirond organ) has the following in regard to tho Marletta & Cinclonat! Raflrosd: Que of our New York subscribers complalns o thedefault in the payment of ntérest on theti inorigage bonda of the Marietta & Cincinnatl Tailraad Company, and wishes us to * press the wattef? upon the attention of the Baltimord & Ohto Raliroad Company, in order to expedite ayment of there averdue coupons, We shoutd Ke rlad to ald the bondholdera of the Marietta & Cinclonati Raliroad Company ns far ss wo ean with propricty mediate in such matters; but wiien it Is clearly within tha power of the firat- mortgago hondholders to seck a remedy in the courts, and when they neglect to nvall of this remedy, wedo not feei ealled upon to nterfere, Aceording to the statement of our corresponde cut, two codpons of the_first-mortgage bunds, which matured in February and August of tbls gear, are mnow overdue and fn default, "In such cases it is pencrally provided tn rallwvay mortgages—and un- doubtedly in this casc—that, after slx months’ default, bondholders tmay commence fureclosure muuvmhnm, and thus obtain 8 decrce of sale, under which they can obtalu posseasion of the property. ‘This is evidently tha true course for e Marlotta & Cincinuatl bondhotders, and whenever auch stepsaretaken we have Jw doubt the {aterest will bo forthcomiog 10 thd sait can be thus_ ecttied, The Ohto & Mississippl first ujortgnge interest, to which our correspondent refers, is paid just fast coough to prevent a alT moutbs’ Jefauit, but the laterest on the sccond marteage Lias been in default nearly two years, und may possivly be deferred for two years niore, unless the bondholders avail of theirlezal rizhts, 10 they preter inaction, and if the frst, mortgage bondlolders of the Marletta & Cin- cinnati choose to submit to prolonged default, they cnonat expect outsiders to espuusg title cause, The inferencs is that-they are satisfied to walt. 1€ not, wm; &o l"";y):ll':'i combine and forve a recognition of thelr rights Tue Marictta & Clucinnatl ltallroad has been practically under tho vontro! of the Baltimors & Olilo Ratlroad Company alnce 1803, and lg now I the hunds of a leceiver, Mr. John King, Jr.,who 18 also_the Recoiver of the Ohlo & Misslasippl. and Vice-Presidentof tho Baltimora & Oblo fuumm Compsany. Iu_ 1805 the cost of the ruad (@51) miles, was $16,037,000. In 1875 1ts cost for 242 mi'es was $23,605,000. ~ In 1865 the capltal atock of the Company was 812,667,- 000, and tho funded and floating deht $4,008)- 8, In 1670 the capital stock was %14,000,000, and the acgregate debt, 818,703,385, Within ten years the dgbt has been luereased from aboiat four. milllons to over eighteen “mifliong, with the addition of but thirty- eix wiles of road. Part of this Increass of debt accrued from the construction of the Baltimore Short Line, a lJink of thirty nules, which cost 81,006,080, or morc than §65,000 per mile, and the Cincinnstl & Baltimors 1ino_of_six miles, which cost 81,702~ 81y, or sbout $285,000 per mile, These bicavy expeuditures were, according to the last apnual report of the rresident and Directors of the Marirtta & Clucinnatl Rallroad Company, wise nnd wecessary, together with the purchoso of additlonal real estate in Cincinnat! sud tho eree- tion of new frelght houscs, as well as many substantial {mprovements on the line. The Baltimore & Ohlo Ralirond Combany furnished o large purt of the tunds to build the thirty-six iles of new rond, anid recelved in part payment tur adyances, $4,630,000 of tho bonds and stock of the Cinginnatl & Bnltiiore, Baltimoro Stort Line, and Marletta & Cincdopatl, at o valuation of 34,131,000, Notwithstanding these heavy expenditnres * aud ymportant improvements, the net carniugs of the liue were but 345,182 for the year end- tug Dee. 110, 1576, against $105,000 fo whila the Interest charges have increased from 8315, 000 to 8512,000. Lven nt this rate of net camn- in;rs, It 1 not apparent why thoe first mortgage futerest, which s less than $250,000 per aonum, should be in default, but it I8 within the power of tho bonubolders to solve the problem by ap- plying to thecourts, . ‘The queatiou for tho bondholders and stoclc- holders uf the Marietta & Clucinnatl, and Ohlo & Miasisaippi Raliroad Companies to determine fs, whether they are benelited or injured by the control of the Baitimore & Ohlo Raflrond Com- pany, If they fecl that their intercats are in Jeopardy, they have but to unite io vigorous urasures In order to recover the posscssion sud wunegement of thelr property. 1f they. will not do tuis, there 18 mo help for them. A lhtle morc than @ yeor since, the stockholders of the Ohlo & Mississiopl Rall- way Company commenced un effective opposle tion to the Balttmore & Ohio, with good pros- pects of success; but we understand that most of this hostllity haa been withdruwst, and tbis, year mauy of thio same stockhofiers wero found rliing actively 1u favor of tho Baltimore & Oailo Interest. Who bas any right to complain so long as the bondholdérs and stocknolders appesr to be satisflea ! ¥ The conrts ore open to redreas tho grievances of the holders of rullway-mortzage bonds, und Lo corporatlon 18 strong euouth to resist ear- nest and untted efforts for rellef; but svinpathy is wasted when the complainants thewsolves arc inactivo and IndifTerent, luregord to the Now York & Oswego Mid- land, to which our correspondent nlso ajludes, we nuderstund that o compromise petiveen the morteaze bondholders and the bolders of Ru- cvlver's certificates Is In contemplation.
