THE RAILROAD PROPHET
THE OHIO RIVER NOT TO DIVIDE
NORTH AND SOUTH LINES.
The L. z. & w. Puts on Through
ings Large Beyond Precedent.

One who keeps in close touch with rail-
way and financial matters said yesterday
that there would be some surprises in the
railway situation between the north-and-
south lines which would obliterate the con-
ditions under which the Ohio river is
dividing lire between the north-and-south
roads. He went on to say that in the near
future the Monon would be controlled by a
Southern line and he thought that that
line would be the Louisville & Nashville,
which, to be successful competitor of the
Illinois Central between Chicago and the
gulf ports finds the Monon a necessity. The
rapid strides the Illinois Central is making
in Southern territory are attracting the
attention of both railroad officials and
capitalists, and for self-protection the
Louisville & Nashville needs the Monon,
and the talk that Indianapolis capitalists
have been buying the stock of the Monon
and caused it's recent advance was folly.
He does not believe that 100 shares of Mo-
non stock have been bought in this city in
the last five years, but is satisfied that
both the Louisville & Nashville and the
Southern Railway were. quietly moving to
get control OF the stock. Another point was
that the Chesapeake & Ohio owners were
quietly getting control OF the Louisville,
Evansville & st. Louis. which would give
them a direct and short line to st. Louis
and the West. one that could be made
more valuable to the Chesapeake Ohio.
SO far as ST. Louis is concerned. and the
Western lines out Of there, than was the
Big Four it's direct Western connection.
and he looked to see some surprises in the
ms hafOrQ mo n.
as in both cases above set out the lines
sought TO be controlled were natural alli-
ances of the Louisville & Nashville and the
Chesapeake * Ohio.
