The STRAsBURG AND HARRIsoNBURG
BRANcH.-A dispatch from Winchester
says it is stated in that city as COM
ing from a high railroad official that the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
is making efforts to regain control OF
the line between Strasburg aud Harri-
souburg, aud if everything works
smoothly, the Baltimore and Ohio will
operate that line again in a short while.
It is understood that overtures have
been made to the Southern company
heretofore, but until 10 nothing has
