ipg Of the Pittsburgh and lake Erie DlrcC-
tors and the representatives of the South
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad Company, Friday
afternoon, the work for the new traffic
agreement was finished. The printed
agreement was changed in few places
where the wording was thought to be OBJ
sCure, and was then sent East Tor hnal
printing. All the parties OF ln'ereSt-the
Lake Shore and Michigan Southern, the
Pitt>burg and Lake Erie, for itself and as
lessor of the Pittsburgh, MckeeSport and
YoughiOgheny; the South Pennsylvania,
and the Philadelphia and heading compa-
MES agreed to the arrangement and 1t Will
be signed in few days. In regard to the
question of guaranteeing the South Penn
sylvania bonds, no formal proposition was
made, aS ii was known il would not be Ia
vorably looked upon. The new arrange
mcnt agreed to give the Pittsburg and Lake
Erie road it's present arbitrary rate OF
rbrce.fuurths OF a cent per ton per mile
on freight. about which there was such a
contest At the meeting before this one
II - probable that Mr.. Harry w. Ohyer
will be- elected director in the road, and 1t
j. certain Mr. Henrici will be reelected
President. Mr.. Oliver could gain control
of the road only by uniting with pr. Hos
tcttcr. and the trust deed would prevent
the voting of the stock. The best LAWYERS
in rh,. county who examined the trust deed
have refused 10 put themselves on record
10 the effect that il could be broken. II the
decd should be broken il would have =
most disastrous effect, as the present aroi-
trary rate and all other contracts OF the
road drpend on the deed as it is speciira y
mentioned in the contract,
