A UNION STATION ?

Conference of Railroad Men In
Ellsworth last Week.
The presence in Ellsworth last Friday
OF Gen. Manager Evans, OF the Maine
Central, Gem Manager Kelley, OF the
Washington County railroad, and I. L.
HsImap, representing the Hancock
County Railroad Co., naturally led to the
inquiry as to what 1t all meant.
These gentlemen were In conference for
several hours, and although nothing was
given out, 1T is current rumor that the
matter under discussion was the prsctica-
biIity OF union station here In Ellsworth
to be used in common by the three rail-
roads.
The advantage to Ellsworth OF such a
com bination Is easy to be seen. That 1t
would be mutually advantageous to the
two steam roads and the proposed electric
road It Is also easy to understand.
At this writing nothing definite has
been given out, although 1t has been
stated by several who are In close touch
with the interests involved, that some
thing Of consequence in The line So ggested
may be looked for In the near future.
