OHIO ELECTRIC GO. ' TO BE OPERATED BY UTILITY -MANAGERS

F. A. Healy, secretary and treasurer nf the Ohio Electric Railway company, which operates lines into Richmond, announced at the Springfield headquarers Friday that Charles Day and John E. Zimmerman, of Philadelphia, public utility engineers, will become managers of the lines April 1. He Bald the engineers will manage tho

property for the bankers, Drexel and

company, and the , Bondholders' Protective committee.

According to Mr. Healy no change

will be made in the personnel of off!

cers and employes of the company.

and all business of the organization

will be conducted under the present name of the company, and the system will be governed by the present staff.

ti. oordon Gilpin is to remain as gen

eral manager and Mr. Healy as secre

tary.

The Ohio Electric, It is understood, has defaulted In paying its rents to othet Interests for the use of the Ft Wayna line and other branches of its

system. Mr. Healy said that the bank-1 ers, Drexel and company, and Bondholders Protective" , committees have

agreed with President Kelsey Schoepf

that the company should be turned

over to Messrs. Day and Zimmerman to be managed by them as the bank

ers' representatives. . ;. .

Gives Up Active Management Mr. Schoepf agreed to give up the

active management of the system

rather than have the Philadelphia fin

anciers . foreclose their Hens on the properties of the company. These liens are in the nature of stock which

the bankers hold as security for bond9

taken in return for loans to the company. Many of these bonds were giv

en by the company at the time it ex

tended its system. Mr. Healy said It should be understood that all of the 2,500 employes

of the entire system will be retained. The reason for the bad financial

condition of the company, Mr. Healy

said, la the increased cost of operating the road In comparison with increases in revenue. This he said, is due to the high cost of labor, the taxes which

the company is forced to pay on its

holdings and the vast amount of street paving which the company has been forced to do to keep pace with improvements in Springfield and other cities.
