Monon Purchase Seen as Safe Despite Critics
The Wall Street Journal notes mixed views on the Monon merger with Louisville & Nashville and Southern Railway. It analyzes bond issues of 12.69 million dollars at 7 percent for common and 9 percent for preferred, with annual charges of 507,600 dollars and a seven year surplus averaging 877,166 dollars, leaving about 190,434 short of interest coverage. It concludes the combined networks should strengthen Monon’s finances and allow refunding of future debt after 1910 as L and S gain Chicago access.
