The Eastern and Boston q Maine Lease.
The history of the Eastern and Boston &
Maine lease has been a curious one. Com
ing originally from the Weeks party. it was
received in a decidedly cool manner by the
Boston & Maine In short time, however.
the Boston 4 Maine began to look at it in
favorable light Mr.. f. b. Phillips, the
then president of the Eastern railroad. saw
at once that the lease meant that the
Eastern, which had been brought out
of bankruptcy and placed upon good
paving basis, was to do the work In the
future. and the Boston & Maine was to re-
ceive the profit Of it. His predictions maze
at the time. have been fully verified by suhse-
quent developments. Very soon after fresi-
dent Phillips retirement. the Eastern peo-
pie, or some of them, discovered that they
had gone too far and were giving the Boston
& Maine the advantage. Col Jonas II.

is not substantiated by anv evidence on tue
