FOR A CHANGED FRANCHISE
Washington and Gettysburg Rail-
way IneOrporatOrs Ask It.
They Want the Three Lines to Be
Consolidated in Order to FaciIi-
tate Financial Negotiations.

The incorporators of the Washington
and Gettysburg Railway Company were
represented before the Commissioner to-
day by DR.. A. c. Drane, and an application
was made for an anne endment to the pending z
bill for the granting of a District fran
chise. The company asks that the three
lines proposed for construction be con-
solidated in one, as a measure necessary
to the placing of the bonds, and also that
a provision be made in the bill which will
enable the company, thus consolidated, to
negotiate with existing lines for the
transportation of its passengers into
the city.
Itwas stated by DR.. Drane that acontract
has been made with Albert Gleason & Co. i,
under which the construction of the road
will be commenced as soon as the bill shall
be approved by the President, and that
syndicate in New York has pledged $780,
600 with which to meet the expense of
building the first five miles, and to under
write the bonds for seventy miles at $20,-
600 per mile The seventy miles covers
the route from Washington to Gettysburg
In addition, Mr.. Drane said the incor-
porators in the District and IN Maryland
have pledged 81 so, 900 in subscriptions to
stock to build the city and suburban divi-
sion in the District. There are three lines
represented, he said, one in Pennsylvania,
represented by o. A. Homer; one in Mary
land, the Baltimore, Hagerstown and Wash
ington, owned by residents along the route,
and the Washington and Gettysburg, con-
fined to the District 1t is impossible, he
argued, to get the bonds underwritten on
the three lines, and consolidation was,
therefore, d necessity.
Speaking of the change affecting the
transportation clause, Dr. Drane said it
will be required that some arrangement
be made for getting passengers into the
city from Tenth street and Rhode Island
avenue, Brookland, until July l, 1898, as
it is the intention to have the road built
prior to that date, which is the limit
Of time fixed within which the Ecking-
ton and Soldiers Home road shall fur
nish the equipment for rapid transit.
DR.. Drane said the high standing of the
incorporators was sufficient guarantee that
the interpretations is not to be matter of
bargain and sale.
