New York, Jan. 31.—Reports of re- ceivership proceedings against the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company, which helped to cause yesterday a sharp break in the stock to 39 1-2, the lawest point on record, were emphatically denied last ! night by officials of the road. It was sald further that plans were well |under way for financing the short term notes maturing on May 1 next, which led to the report that re- ceivership proceedings might be started in order to clear up some of the New Haven's difficulties. It is understaod that the directors have practically decided to have the $25,000,000 of New Haven notes a%id the $20,000,000 of Niew England Navi- gation notes extended, probably for six months or a year. After the notes have been extended it is expected that the New Haven officials will apply for permission to refund the notes with a new issue running for a period not to exceed five years and bearing interest at a normal rate. It was said on good authority yes- terday that part of the collateral be- hind thé New England Navigation notes _might be sold and the proceeds used to retire part of the notes. In event that such action is not taken, the new nates to be put out covering the New England Navigation issue will not bear 6 per cent. interest, the rate | now paid. The $25,000,000 of New Haven notes bear 4 1-2 per cent. in- terest, and it is probable that a simi- lar rate will be decided upon. Officials of the Toad and bankers said they believe that the New Haven is doing as well as could be expected, having earned not more than $1,400,- 000 in the last six months over the corresponding period of the previous year. The earnings of the road thus far in the current fiscal year have shown improvement both in gross and net, although the gains recorded have not been so large as those of other roads of the country.
