The HockIns Valley .nd Flint and rere
Mnrnnette NAY Ne JpIned.

Rumors of n consolidation Of the Columbus.
Hooking Valley and Toledo and the Flint and
Pore Marquette railroads have been revived in
Western railroad circles. rs for ms tan be
ascertnincd these rumors arise from the general
belief that in time such n consolidation Will be
effected both on account of the geographical
position OF the two roads and because of the
large financial interests that are identified with
both roads.
There Is already a close alliance between the
two properties, and II Is said to be the purpose
OF the owners to make n through line by the use
OF the Norfolk and Western from the North
west to Norfolk. In order to make connection
snry for the Flint and iere Marquette to build
a short extension from Monroe, It's present ter
minus, into Toledo. which city IL enters now
over the Michigan Central tracks. The Hook
ING Valley would thus have opened up to IT, q
market in the Northwest for It's coal. while the
Flint and Pere Marquette will have a route To
the sea.
From Ludington and Manistee. the ternini of
the Flint and Pere Marquette on Lake Michi-
gan. there Is now u ferry To Milwaukee,. but II Is
proposed To run ferry honts capable of carrying
q loaded train from Ludington across the lake
about sixty miles to Manitowoc. the terminus OF
the Milwaukee, Lake Shore and Western. IL
IL thought that such n connection would at
tract freight from northern Wisconsin, because
: would save the time and expense OF the haul
+irouRh the city of Chicago, making a quicker
and cheaper route to Eastern ports.

Atal Gstatt for Salt-- Stattn NstHal
A QUESTION OF QUININE.

CHAUNCEY DEPEW, with the
sarcastic banter for which he II
famous, once accused Erastus
Wiman with creating n corner in
Quinine in order to boom Staten
island Chauncey got rs good a.
lie gave from Mr.. Wiman in the re-
spouse that Staten Island with ito
sloping hills needed no quinine,
and if it did the drug had already
been cornercd for the Harlem flats,
because of the excavations for the
Central smoky tunnel and along
the swamps through which thst
road ran to the Hudson"
But no one now thinks OF qui-
nine in relation to the low lands of
Harlem or even the flat lands outs
side of Brooklyn, more than they
do in relation to Staten Ia and,
whose high hills and gentle slopes
obviously afford n natural drainage
not approached by any suburb
about New York.
Meanwhi G more money has been
made by advance of values in Har.
lem because of the overflow of the
city population in that direction
than in any equal space o.. the
earth's surface, unless it be peg.
haps in Brooklyn, on the other side
of the river. Certainly not in buy
ing and selling stocks has there
heen so mucl money made as in
the purchase and sale of land in
the outskirts oil New York Ger
Ia My not in merchandising, nor in
railroading, nor in the professions.
nor in any other form of human ao-
tivity has profit been so secure, so
large and so certain rs in buying
and selling marketable property
within easy access of the city's
overflow of the population, OF
manufactures and commerce.
Another great chance thus to
make money in land now opens
with the absorption into the city
OF New York of Staten Island,
now an assured fact. On Saturday
next, 2Sth inst, at $3.50 2. NJ, the
best and first of these chances will
b" offered at public sale of twelve
city lots (150x200) within a thou
sand feet of the ferry landing, at
St. George, Staten Island. This is
now, an will ever hereafter be,
tho pivotal point of this section Of
the new city, being the point OF
land nearest New York and to
which all steam and electric roads
and ferries gravitate.
A fine brick house occupies the
land, the rent of which will carry
the property without expense to
its future great value. Lots in the
vicinity have been selling Tor
$1,000 each, hence the bare land to
be sold is worth $4,000. Yet to.
liquidate liens a forced sale COM
pels an upset price of $4,000.
This is at the rate of so cents per
square foot, in full sight of prop
erty near New York Battery Q
Gently realizing $4,000 per square
foot, n difference of 2,00J per cent.
Take the boat from the foot Of

Roads, leaving on the hour or half
hour and night and morning every

open for inspection. Terms, ten
