LAST WEEK IN SEVERAL MONTHS.
Purchase of Control of the Baltimore
~ Ohio Urged by Former Presi-
dents of the Pennsylvania.

The train records show that there were
received and forwarded at indianapolis in
the week ended June / a total of .. la6
ears. 2O,o59 being loaded, the lightest load
ed car movement i'm some weeks past. On
Memorial day no local freights were run,
and this in part accounts for the lighter
business, as local traffic forms fully as
important feature with indianapolis lines
as does through business. East-bound
shipments of grain last week were at u
minimum. shippers awaiting the reduction
in rates which became effective June 10.
The inquiry for ears the latter part of the
week is taken evidence that shipments
will increase from this time, as there is
still good deal of corn in farmers cribs,
elevators and warehouses to be marketed.
Locally more grain was handled last week
than in any week of the last three months.
Shipments of produce, live stock and
dressed meats are heavy for this season
of the year West-bound there is a heavy
tonnage of low class freights being
handled, but in the higher class freights.
as usual in May and June, shipments are
light. Transcontinental business is lighter
than at any time in some months past.
Locally business is heavy beyond precedent
and at the city freight depots and OF bulk
tracks there is the greatest activity. Local
agents have been obliged to increase their
forces and working overtime is of almost
nightly occurrence. So sharp il competi-
ton that road to hold it's business must
ship and deliver freights with the greatest
promptness. and in most cases freights are
now delivered within distance of 100 TO l5O
miles as quickly as if carried by the eX-
press companies. At the stockyards. the
packing houses and with the cerealine mills
shipments are in excess of the correspond
ing period last year. The table below gives
the figures for the several roads for the

Not a New PrOpOSitiOn.

The closer alliance of the Pennsylvania
and the Baltimore & Ohio has caused much
comment. STILL it is no new thing with
the Pennsylvania. When the late George
b. Roberts was president he once called
a meeting at which he stated that the
Pennsylvania could do nothing better than
tc buy the Baltimore & Ohio. Some of the
directors disSented and one or two sug
gested that the Pennsylvania could afford
to let the Baltimore & Ohio alone, mas
much as ii was in poor condition. AT that
time its roadbed was In wretched shape,
its equipment of old type and badly worn.
General Passenger Agent Lord at that time
remarked that the Baltimore a Ohio would
carry many millions of passengers, but
they never but once would go over the
road. Since that time the Baltimore &
Ohio has spent $4,000 eco. all within the last
four years, for betterment, and 80 per cent.
OF its equipment is new rolling stock. Mr..
Cassatt. when he was elected president of
the pennsylvania lines, recommended that
the Baltimore & Ohio be purchased ut
once. This was made necessary by the
great Improvement made on the lines and
the rapid growth of its traffic. Messrs.
Cowen and Murray accomplished great
work the Baltimore * Ohio i'm the erec-
ton of new and strengthening old bridges

power and rolling stock to handle the bust

of the territory traversed by the Pennsyl-
vania and the Baltimore & Ohio is so great
that with all their improvements, they
have been unable to take care of the bust
