THE CLYDE SYNDICATE.

There was considerable excitement
in Baltimore few days ago when it
became known that what is known as
the Clyde Syndicate had purchased
the Virginia Midland Railroad. As
this combination of capitalists is
getting such large interests in the
Sou b, it may be matter of interest
to some Of our Teaders to know who
compose the syndicate. The head is
VIM. 2. Clyde, Of New York. 1t
was formed some fifteen or eighteen
months ago, and in that short time
has made amazing progress. In the
beginning it held no property at
all, except the millions in cash
at command from those who were
parties to the enterprise.
TIE syndicate embraces such CAPT
talists and practical men as the
Clydes of Baltimore, Philadelphia
and New York, the Stewards, Gen
eral Logan, and General Buford and
the Perkinses of New York, A recent
Baltimore special to the Chicago
Tribune says:
They virtually have absolute COM
troll of several railroads south of the
Potomac, and are extending their
lines in all directions. The general
public has had little knowledge Of
the syndicate operations, chiefly
because it's stock has never been
listed ON the boards of the New
York Stock Exchange, the under-
taking being one of investment
purely, from which results are not ex-
pected in the markets of Wall street.
The roads now owned and operated
by the syndicate and popularity
known as the Richmond and Danville
system comprise the Richmond and
DanviIle, the Richmond, York River
and Chesapeake, the North Carolina,

hills on tho south aud east of the valley, it
becomes one OF the mast beautiful spots of
