NEW YORK, March 9.-The Penn>y >yiyauia
railways movement in obtaining control OF
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Balti-
more railway continues TO be the principal
topic OF conversation to-day on the street
and between railroad.men. 1t is claimed
that Mr.. Thayer was rather rash IN makn Nc
his promise, and was toe confident in
his following in the road in which he has
held controlling share, and been a
leader for so many years. His great mis-
take, an old railroad-man said to-day, was
in not consulting with the other large stock
holders, but he went into the arrange
ment and made these promises on his own
responsibility without speaking 10 a single
soul. and relying tacitly upon the fact that
he would obtain following and manage 10
comply with the terms Of the contract. In
| this he seems to have been mistaken, for a
soon as the heavy holders OF the stock
learned OF it they naturally became indig'
nant, and determined upon teaching Mr..
| Tdayer 4 lesson in prudence. Within
| twenty-four hours after Mr.. Thayer had
! signed the agreement the PENNSYLVANIA rail-
way received several offers from heavier
shareholders than Mr.. Thayer.
| In consequence Of the disastrous failure,
Mr.. Thayer's lawyer waited upon the mem
| bers Of the New York syndicate yesterday
| He made known TO them that Mr.. Thayel
was unable TO carry out the terms Of the
contract, and that he must stand suit fol
compromise. The latter was agreed upon
and S2J0,000 was named. Upon cOn>ulta-
ton these figures were rejected. Then
100000 were offered, accepted, and di
