Ware indebted 10 Judge X. II. Cochran
for tho time table Of the Wheeling K Lake
Erie road. We notice by the map on tho
back Of tho card TINT the road is projected
through to the Ohio rlverat Wheeling, aud
that the distance from Toledo 10 Wheeling
-9la miles-is given. We suppose that-it
il BY this time an open secret that the
road Is 10 bc built to The river at Martins
Ferry; that tho river is to 10, bridged be.
tween that point and Wheeling. and that
The Wheeling & Lake Eric is to become
the Ohio link OF the road that is surveyed
between here and Harrisburg, and that is
supposed to control the Reading road from
That polnt 10 New York. The mysterious
cloud TINT has surrounded the "south
Pennsylvania" seems to have rifted sut-
Gcieutly to disclose about this much. n
The Wheeling 4 Lake Erie is built and
running 10 Valley Junction, which is So
miles west OF Wheeling, and at that point
/, connects with the Valley road to Cleve-
land, and also with the Marietta branch to
Marietta. Indeed the line through from
Toledo 10 Marietta is now one line, the
Wheeling ( Lake Erie, and the distance is
SO miles. Trains leave Toledo at 7 in the
morning and reach Marietta at 7:3O in the
evening, whicl. is at the rate OF about GO!
miles per hour. The road from tho June.
ton 10 Toledo, although SO newly built, Is
said 10 he smooth, well built, steel rallied
and easy running. The line is already
doing considerable coal business. AT
Toledo ii will connect with Gould's Wabasl,
System. Gould has as yet no eastern outlet
for the Wabash System, and the Wheeling

fact, there is no longer any room 10 doubt
