Trolley Deal Goes Ahead Despite Agency Inquiries

August Belmont and Thomas F. Ryan are not in the deal as a major public service restructuring unfolds in New Jersey. Morgan, Handal Morgan and the Us will take up two thirds of a five million dollar trolley gas and electric lighting plant upgrade, with plans to replace public securities with bonds and issue new capital. Engineers from the New York firm inspected the trolley, gas and electric systems and found them profitable but the trolley lines underperforming. The proposal includes calling in twenty one million in public service holdings and converting notes to bond funding, with Morgan taking control of underlying companies. North Jersey Street Railway bonds were involved, and a substantial cash gain is anticipated for the public corporation through the transaction. Mayer Bolwon and Thomas Bryan are noted as not involved in the capital infusion plan.
