Miscellaneous Notes.

The Gulf. Colorado s. Santa Fe Railroad Com.
pany announce reciprocal traffic arrangements
with the Gould lines throughout the Southwest
Il is announced by circular that the business
Of the Canada Southern line has been trans
ferred from the Philadelphia & Reading to the
Pennsylvania railroad.
There seems to be a wellfeunded belief in
railroad circles that the Texas e st. Louis rail-
way is destined ultimately TO fall into the hands
of the Illinois Central Many recent develop
ments argue the strength and correctness of this
supposition.
The subscriptions Of the stock of the Chesa
peake & Nashville railroad aggregate $40, 000,
leaving only 500. 900 to bring the sum up to the
figure required by G P. Huntington, the mill
ionaire. to insure the completion of this i'm
portant line.
The New York Central is carrying passengers
from Syracuse to Niagara Falls and return for SO
cents. When the fight began they started out
at So. but they gave notice that they would make
q lower rate than the West Shore, no matter at
what that line fixed the figure.
1t is said the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Com
pany is DESTROYS of getting hold of the Ale
ghenF Valley road and purposes to make an
offer similar to that Of Jay Goulds Wabash sys-
tenn: to guarantee interest on the debts and a
small dividend on the capital stock.
