Must Record Their Sales.

CHICAGO. Sept. 2S.-Judge Showalter, of

WHO WILLGETTHE ROAD?
MICHIGAN DIVISION OF THE Wanda
Liza TO BE SOLD NEXT MONTH.
Pennsylvania Breaks All Records in
Enginc-Big Four Earnings.

1t is officially announced that the Michi-
gan division of the Vandalia will be sold
at foreclosure sale at Charlottesville Oct.
20. The Terre Haute Express says: Just
who the purchasers will be is not known,
but the sale is probably fine bit of finan-
ciering on the part of the Pennsylvania and
the road will not pass out of the control of
that company. The entire division is not
included in the terms of sale, only that part
lying between Rockville and South Bend
coming under the hammer. From Terre
Haute to Rockville the road is the property
of the Evansville & Terre Haute Railroad
but is operated by the Vandalia under a
ninety-nine years lease. From South Bend
north to ST. Joseph Mich. the road, is
leased from the Indiana & Lake Michigan
and operated by the Vandalia line. That
portion of the division which is to be sold
is in excellent physical condition, and since
the Vandalia people have had control the
road has been greatly improved. The dan
gerous curve at Cutler was taken out and
the track Strengthened, and the bridges and
culverts along the line received much needed
attention. The terms of sale, it is under
stood, Will not permit of the consideration
Of any bid less than $750,O00 and it is the
opinion of railroad men that the .Pennsyl-
to get away from them. The division is too
valuable feeder" for the main line of the
Vandalia to allow foreign corporation to
assume control of the destinies of the road
and the road has more than doubled its
business within the last few months"
1t is intfmated that litigation may yet de-
lay the sale OF the property.
