BALTIMORE
TO SELL OUT.
viii Part With It's 1000
Shares
Of Stock of the Western Mary
land Railroad
TO A n. 7. SYNDICATE.
Trunk Line From Chicago to
That City.
Is Expected to Be the Outcome
of the Deal.
TO A N. Y. SYNDICATE

Baltimore, Nd, Nov. 15.-Defnite
plans are now under consideration for
the sale of the city holdings in the
Western Maryland Railway company,
amounting to 1000 shares, to a syndi-
cate of New York capitalists.
The decision to sell the stock was
reached by the city finance commits
siOners a week ago, but was not made
public until today.
NayOr-elect Hayes has made the fol-
lowing statement: THE New York
representatives seemed anxious to gain
the city holdings in the property and
to assume the floating Indebtedness Of
the road. Their proposition was to pay
$4.485,000 for the property.
They stated that the proposed pur-
chase had no connection or identifica-
pany or the Baltimore & Ohio railroad
company, or any other existing trunk
line. They outlined a plan for the
building of a competing trunk line to
Chicago in conjunction with the West
ern Maryland railroad. They said they
had a route Sc miles shorter than either
the Pennsylvania or Baltimore & Ohio
to Baltimore, that the diminished dis
tance could make Baltimore the great
est coal center on the Atlantic coast

FELLOWS A CANDIDATE.
Ex-MayOr Enters the Race For
County Commissioner.

Ex-MayOr c. A. Fellows will be a
candidate for county commissioner from
the city district to succeed T. P. Rod
gers whose term will expire next year.
When Mayor Fellows refused to be-
come a candidate for a third time as
mayor of Topeka after a brilliant rec
ord in that office he said that he thought
he would keep out of politics. His
friends have, however, urged him to al
low the use of his name for the position
of county commissioner and he has
consented to become a candidate.
The position is one which will not re-
quire all Mr.. Fellows time and this was
an important consideration in his decis-
ion to enter the race. He does not wish
to give up his business.
Mr.. Fellows experience as mayor and
in the city council especially fits him
for the position of county commissioner.
He is wide awake and progressive and
that is what is needed in the admin
istration of the county affairs.
