The Philadelphia Inquirer publishes a

President Ingalls,, of the Big Four lines.
has issued a circular to the effect that the
Big Four has taken control of the Cincln-
natl, Sandusky & Cleveland lines. Officers
and employees on the lines will report to
and receive instructions from heads of de
partments as follows: Transportation and
maintenance of way, w. NJ. Greene, general
manager, Cincinnati; motive power, J. A.

When West in company with President
Brey fogle, of the Louisville, New Albany
a. Chicago road, several directors of the
road went over portion of the Indiana
Midland. This has led to some speculation
as to the reason the trip was made. The
best authority says that 1T has not the
least significance. further than that for
months Harry Crawford. sr.. had been urg-
ing the directors to take the trip. as he
wanted to show them that the Indiana
Midland was not such a poverty-stricken
piece of road as has been represented.
While they were surprised at the good
physical condition of the road, they are
not desirous of investing any money in new
lines, except extensions which have already
been decided upon.
