in Greater New York Information Of the
transaction leaked out last night and
aroused much interest in the territory af-

For some time the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and the interests represented In
the subway rapid transit have desired pos
session of these railways. Eleven years
ago the Steinway interests, which then
owned the horse-car system in Long Island
City, began to build a tunnel under the
East River. The work came to disas-
trous end when a dynamite explosion
killed several men and did $500, 600 damage.
BY means of this tunnel the trolley system

subway system of Manhattan, and several

troll of the Belmonts.

Among the roads said to have passed

This road operates branches extending
all through Queens, to College Point, Flush

Island City. 1t also controls the New
York and North Shore road, which extends
through Jamaica and Far Rockaway and
connecvs at Queens with the Nassau County
Electric Railway, another branch which
connects villages in Nassau county, and
expects to send connecting lines into Suf-
