GRAND TRUNK REACHING OUT.
Aims to Have Transcontinental Sys-
tenn Of Its Own.

TEN OF Its own.
Toledo, Ohio, Nov. 17.-1nside of
two weeks the title to the Detroit &
Toledo Shore Line railway will be
vested in the Grand Trunk railway.
The Grand Trunk railway will pay
81, 500, 900 for the property, which
consists, for the most part, Of a dou-
BILE track line extending from Toledo
to Trenton, Mich. To the ex-
tension of it's lines into Ohio terri
tory, the Grand Trunk will issue ST.
900, 900 in bonds, paying for the COM
pleted portion of the Shore Line the
amount stated and utilizing the re-
naming $4,000 0 to extend the road
north from Trenton to Detroit and to
reballast the completed portion.
The Clover Leaf is a minority par
ty to the transaction and joins with
the Grand Trunk in guaranteeing the
bond issue of ST. 900, 900. These bonds
will be handled by an eastern trust
company.
Through passenger trains over the
Glover Leaf from st. Louis will not
| stop at Toledo as at present, but will
continue on to Detroit over the Grand
| Trunks shore line railway and in
like the Grand Trunks south
and west traffic will be reunited via
Toledo.
It is intimated that the Grand
Trunks London owners are ambltl'
GUS to build a great transcontinental
railway hat will prove a formidable
rival to the Canadian Pacific, the
Vanderbilt east and west lines and the
Gould systems. The plans OF the fu
ture is to give the Grand Trunk free
access to southwestern America over
the Glover Leaf tracks.

TUMBLE IN PRICE OF SILVER.
Price of White Metal at Low Water
Mark in India.

London, Nov. 17.-While money
was reasonably abundant the last
week the record fall in the price of
silver was one of the features OF the
week, and this decline was in pro-
portion more mark in India than on
the home market. The explanation
offered here fer this collapse was the
lack of any earning demand, coupled
with the forced liquidation in Wal
street and the rumor that Mexico in
tended to establish a gold standard.
The general outlook in India, how
ever, is improving and it is thought
that a period of prosperity In that
country will tend to check any further
decline in silver.

REASONS FOR DECLINING
Wisconsin Congressman Explains His
Position to His State
Delegation.

Milwaukee, Nov. 1.-THE Wiscon-
sin republican congressional delega-
ton at a conference has offered it's
support to Congressman Babcock for
speaker of the fifty-eighth congress.
MI. Babcock, however, declines to
he a candidate and favors Congress-
mar Cannon of Illinois.
In his address to the delegation Mr..
Babcock said:
"After considering the subject from
all standpoints, l have concluded not
to enter the list of candidates for

Reasons for Declining.

BIG SUIT COMMENCED.
Western Union Wants an Injunction
Against the Pennsylvania.

Against the Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia, Nov. 1.-THE Record
says on Thursday in the United
States court sitting at Pittsburg, the
Western Union Telegraph company
will file a suit praying for ar injunc-
ton restricting the Pennsylvania Rail-
road company from removing any
poles, wires or fixtures of the plaintiff
corporation from the land owned by
the defendant company east Of Pitts
burg and Erie.
This move will mark the beginning
of a great legal battle between the
Gould Wabash interests and the Penn
sylvania-C asett corporations. Gener-
al Solicitor Neeper, of the Wabash
system, will make the fight for the
Western Union and George v. Massey,
general solicitor for The PENNSYLVANIA,
will direct the defense for that COM
pany.
The first step preliminary to the
real contest was taken Thursday when
superintendent J. H. Altberger and
| General Solicitor E~sterbrook, repre-
senting the Western Union, rendered
the Pennsylvania Railroad company a
bond the exact character of which
was not disclosed. This bond was re-
fused by George V. Massey, on behalf
of the railroad and the proposed ap-
plication for an injunction was decid,
ed upon. Mr.. Massey being SO advis,
ed. Mr.. Esterbrook departed for
Pittsburg, where he will meet Sole
itor Neeper.
The claim of the Western Union is
based upon the proposition that its
poles and wires rightfully occupy
space along the tracks of the Penn
sylvania because of the general grants
under which is known as post-roat
rights.
The Western Union company main
tains that post-road rights are equa
in Importance to the eminent rights
of the railroad company.
