Western people ia that by any other line to
Washington than the Baltimore and Ohio all
trains from the West have to come together
with trains from the East and North. and all
use one South-bouni track for forty-odd miles.
That Il to say. that no other line but the B. q

ton, one for its trains from the West and the
other for Its trains from the North and East.
All this may prove more or less confusing or
perplexing to those who contemplate attend
