THE NEW LEASE OF THE WABASH.
EFFECT OF IFS ABSORPTION OF THE EEL RIVER


ROAD.
After negotiations extending over several weeks
the Wabash Railway Company has leased the Eel
River Railroad. between Logansport and Butler
Ind. This road was organized originally as the De
trolt, Eel River and Illinois Railroad, and was
opened to travel in 1874. 1t was sold un-
der foreclosure proceedings in 1877. and
reorcauized under its present title in De-
cember of the same year. The present line
of road about ninety-four miles IN length, has de-
rived its great Importance from its connections
With these It has proved formidable competitor
to the Wabash Road for the traffic OF the South
west At Butler its eastern terminus, 1t connects
with the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern koad'
and few miles south at Auburn Junction with
tbe Baltimore and Ohio Road, winch a1oId
outlets 10 the lakes and the East ~
connects at Logansport with roads lying south
OF the Wabash lines and which give direct CON
nectiOn with indianapolis and Ierre H9ute, ana 9N
the Vandalia Road with st. Louis and the South
The Eel River Railroad has no bonded debt, and
its capital stock amounts to SZ,IO2I2O' OF whlca
SIG, 800 bonds Of the former corporation has not
vet been exchanged for stock of the new company
according TO the terms OF the reorganization. ne
entire stock account OF the company Is at the
rate of about $29,7OO mile. A dividend OF
per cent paid from the earnings OF the
wear 1879. Under the terms Of the lease, the
Wabash Company guarantees annual d1vld nds on
the stock of per cent for FIVE years and of 4l2 per
cent thereafter. The road Is owned mainly by per
at Boston and Detroit, ana one of ts directors
James I. Joy, Of Detroit, was elected several
months ago director of the Wabash company The
acQu ition OF this road is regarded by directors Of
the Wabash Road as of great consequence to the
interests Of that company 1t removes, II is claimed,
formidable rival for the Southwestern traffic.
Il is the key to the situation" director eXult-
luCy said Yesterday. IL is thought to afford prob
able solution to the problem of Detroit extension,
which for several weeks has been held In abeyance.
The proposed fusion of the Grand Trunk and Great
Western Roads of Canada, with which tho Wabash
had agreed 20 build an Independent line be-
tween Toledo and Detroit, has delayed the
building of the road. IL is thought that in case
that agreement should not be fulfilled. the Wabash
Road NAV complete the Eel River Road from Butler
to Detroit. The building of that line would give a
nearly air line between ST. Louis and Detroit.
If IL should not be found necessary TO
extend the road. the acquisition of the
Eel River Road would enable the Wabash
Company to make terms with tho Lake Shore
Road. to which the leased road has been an inn
portant feeder 1t is believed to be not impossible
tlat with adequate encouragement both lines to
Detroit. one from Butler and the other from
Toledo, may be built
