subject discussed I'm railroad circles to-day, the ne"
route Of the baltimore and Ohio from the west 10
Baltimore Philadelphia and Ncwiork, which those IN
a position TO know declare has been accomplished

the Baltimore and Ohio ran IFS trains over the Penn

the gross traffic between Philadelphia and New-iorK
amounted to a large sum but within year or two'

small. As the company will throw all the business II
can over the line, in order to make the Philadeipha
branch show profit and to support the extensive ter
minas on staten Island the belief is that In the next
few years business Will increase several times over
the old amount.
