$100000 Morse Note May Be Paid Soon
The Hudson Navigation Company took over $100,000 in Metropolitan Steamship bonds as security for a bank loan tied to a Morse group note. Morse allies deny personal purchase. bonds had originally paid a prior loan and now partly cover a 2 percent dividend. The note for $100,000 is tied to a joint Morse Hudson loan, with an immediate payoff expected and attachment lifted. The consolidation committee aims to keep the Morse properties united, with Harvard and Yale steamers once earning about $179,000 monthly before winter layup, and costs targeted at about $50,000 monthly.
