The disturbance among the railways
running through the Shenandoah Valley,
which had its origin some months since,
and about which much has been written,

reached the Winchester and Strasburg

This is what General James C. Hill.
Railroad Commissioner OF the State.
has threatened TO bring about, and UNI
less some understanding is reached
whereby the Baltimore and Ohio Com
pany will run its trains into the town
of Strasburg, steps looking to that end
will be at once taken.
Ever since December LIST, when the
Southern railway took possession of
mile and half of trackage running
from Strasburg TO Harrisonburg. former
ly part OF .he Valley branch Of the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad, running
from Harper's Ferry to Lexington, but

road

when the Southern possessed itself OF

therefor off at the junction, mile and

General Hill has talked with the
president of the Baltimore and Ohio.
but he declines 10 run his trains down
to Strasburg, and the Commissioners will
now take legal proceedings for the re-
vocation of the charter of the Strasburg
branch.
The Winchester and Strasburg railroad.

by act of the Legislature passed in

This was arranged at the time, and
continued until December 1, 1896, when

cancelled. The Winchester and Stras-
burg road has since that time stopped
its trains at Strasburg Junction, which Is
about a mile and a half out Of the town.

Barry & Co. the union proposed that All

Mr. Barry said that he could not accede

would so continue.
This lends color to the belief that the
