The statement, OF which the foregoing is
denial. Is merely old story rehashed'
The fact that the Baltimore and Ohio had
bought the Pittsburg and Western was published eX
cluslvely in The Tribune about month ago, ana here
is nothing new in the situation. Andrew carnegie
when seen at his home No. West Ffty-firsst'' last
night. said TO a reporter:
by the exchange Of Plttsburg and western ana
Baltimore and Ohio stock the latter company did obtain
a through line from baltimore to Chicago much shorter
and better than the Pennsylvania, and 1t needs no
additional franchises from Pitt'burg as II already has
a bridge over the Allegheny that connects Its line WIN
the Pittsburg and Western The line IS ready to begin
handling through freight.
