.RUMORS WILL
NOT DOWN.
Proposed Consolidation of The
Wabash and w. & L. E.
NOTWITHSTANDING A DENIAL
Of President Blicke ensderfer, the Metro
politan Papers stiil Continue to
Print Stories Concerning

The consolidation Of the w. G. L. z.
and Wabash which has occupied con->
siderable space in the metropolitan
papers Of late will not down, notwith-
standing the denials of President Blick-
ensderfer Of the Wheeling and that the
road would maintain its independence.
The Pittsburg Post Of today publishes
a long story Of the proposed consolida-
ton, on which. 1t says in part:
1.-THE New York papers are now pub
fishing long stories about the rumored
consolidation Of the Wabash and the
Wheeling & Lake Erie roads. Some
weeks ago the Post gave to its readers
all the important facts connected with
this reported deal, and 1t is noticed
that the New York papers have copied
the articles almost word for word. AL
though 1t may be some time yet before
the Wabash and the Wheeling & Lake
Erie are consolidated and Pittsburg
connection built, yet the whole scheme
will be carried out eventually unless
the big trunk lines manage to prevent 1t
by taking in the Wabash.
"In the meantime the Wheeling &c
Lake Erie has absorbed the, Cleveland,
Canton and Southern, the Coshocton &
Southern, and have secured q control
ling interest in the Wheeling Bridge G
Terminal railroad. This will give them
excellent Cleveland and Wheeling con-
nections, and the branch to Sherrods-
Vile can be utilized as part Of the
future main line to Pittsburg, as its
present terminus is only about rs miles
from Pittsburg. and by building a cut
Off from Navarro to Oneida or Carroll
ton, the distance from Toledo to Pitts
burg can be reduced considerably.
