MILLIONS OF DOLLARS READY A Plan Now Undor Consideration Will be Submitted to the Board ot Managers Next Wednes day The DotallB. rHT la stated by Mentis of tuo rniiaacipnia anu Reading Railroad Com' pany who are supposed to be In a position to rccoivo Important In sido information that tho roceivershlp will terminato beforo tho closo of Slay. Among tho reports is ono that a plan for the rehabilitation of the company has been prepared and Is not in tho nature of a re organization, but provides for tho infusion of now capital without disturbing tho present securities of tho company. Tho plan has been endorsed by tho counsel for tho general mortgage bondholders and is now being con. sldercd by tho Reading Board of Managers and preference incorno bondholders. Tho plant is to mako a new issuo of bonds fo r $30,000,000. Theso bonds are to bearO per cent, interest and to bo a lien after tho general mortgago bonds and ahead of the incomo bonds. They aro to bo offered to the present security holder at 05. A syndicate has been mado up to take thoso not subscribed for. Soveral days ago subscriptions to tho syndicate to tho amount of $10,000,000 woro Becurod, and on Tuesday thoy were increased by $17,000,000, making tho total $27,000,000, No diiliculty was anticipated in obtaining subscriptions for tho remaining $3,000,000, Tho largest subscribers to tho syndicato are Drcxol & Co., of Philadelphia, and Droxol Morgan & Co., of New York. Tho bonds, sold at 85, would realize $28,500,000. Tho floating debt of tho Reading Company $18,uuu,ouo, aim It would therefore bo pro vided with $10,500,000 of working capital. Tho bond issuo would obvlato an extensive reorganization and would render unnecessary the use of receivers' certificates upon tho plan which was originally suggested by the bondholders. There is every probability that tho plan will bo ready to bo presented to tho meeting of tho board of managers on Wednesday next, which will bo tho first meeting under tho new management. If the plan meets with tho approval of the security holders, as is confldensly expected by its authors, tho attempt to raise money by issuing Receivers' certificates will be finally abandoned. President-elect Joseph S. Harris will succeed President MeLeod on Monday. USE DANA'S SARSAPARILLA, its ' 'THE KIND THAT CUKES." Serenades. Mr. and Mrs. T. B.
