TWO AfLROADS SOLD
The Philadelphia SyDdidats Disposes Of Its
Belt and lexington Stock.
Both Lines Are Expected to Be Used
Electric Line to Baltimore.

The Philadelphia street railway syndi-
cate, composed of W.. L.>Elkins, P. A. B.
Widener and Thomas Dolan and others,
which bought the controlling interests in
the Belt line and the lexington and Sol
diers' Home railroads here in 1888, have
sold out their holdings in the roads to the
Baltimore capitalists whose former sub
stantial interests in the properties have
been represented by President Newbold.
The latter gentlemen are said to pe largely
interested in the building of the proposed
Boulevard electric line between this city
and Baltimore. for which contracts for its
complete construction before June l, 1896,
are about to be awarded, and it is stated
that they bought the controlling stock of
the Belt and lexington companies in order
to provide plentiful means of communica-
tion with every part of Washington when
the Boulevard road is finished.
1t is said that the Philadelphia syndicate
received something over a million dollars
for the stock disposed of, but it is believed
in weil-informed circles that no actual
money changed hands, as II is well under
stood that Messrs. Widener, Dolan and
Elkins are largely interested in the Boule-
Vard enterprise. This is all the more APP
parent. from the fact that Mr.. w. Kesley
Schoepf, who has represented the Phila-
delphia interests as vice president and
general manager of the lexington and
Belt systems, holds the same important
positions with the Washington and Mary
land Railroad Company, which is about to
construct the Boulevard electric line to
Baltimore.
