the difficulties between the New York Central

direction but added: II am told that pretty fair

The Pennsylvania and the Central.

PHILADELPHIA. July 2C.-There were state
ments in abundance to day concerning the nego-
tiations between the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and the Vanderbilt interest. A prom
inent officer OF the Pennsylvania railroad was
quoted as having said that the negotiations had
been practically settled, and that the
syndicate constructing the Sonth Penn
sylvania railroad would soon issue
orders to have work upon it suspended A
prominent officer of the Pennsylvania railroad
who was during the day by a representa-
tive of the Record stated that the negotiations
had been completed, and he had no doubt that
work would soon be abandoned on the
South Pennsylvania as part of the
agreement between the two interests. He did
not believe there would be sufficient objection
from others interested IN the South Pennsylva-
MIA, beside the Vanderbilt party, to prevent the
abandonment of the line. AS to the disposition
of the Beach Creek, Cearfed &
said this could be effected by MIR.
Vanderbilt and his interests, which are the con-
trolling ones in its management, without making
the explanations required in the disposition of
his interests in the other lines. With the dis
posal of these lines to the Pennsylvania. Mr.
Vanderbilt withdraws entirely from his Penn
sylvania enterprises, excepting the investments
about Pittsburg and in the coke region
and iu the stock of the Reading Railroad Com

vestments are involved in any way in the neeo-
| tiations that are now going on. There have
been many statements about the amount
Mr.. Vanderbilt is to receive for parting
with his interests in the South Pennsylvania
and the Beech Creek lines, the favorite assertion
being that he is to receive long running bond
bearing interest at the rate of per cent. per
annum upon the investment A gentleman
intimate with the negotiations. so far as
they have progressed, states there is no
such provisions. The only purchase money
mentioned has been for the Beach Greek line
and that has been also far in excess of the actual
value of the property. This is
the way it is to be settled
and there are to be no conditions of what one
party to the contract is to do in consideration of
another party doing certain thing" said this
gentleman 1T is merely matter of bargain
