nrFEcT OF coURT,s DECISION.
Gossip Relating to Wabash Railways
Entrance into Washington.

The recent decision OF the United States
Supreme Court to the effect that the right
of way through portion of the District
in the vicinity OF Deanwood, which was
granted to the old Southern Maryland
railroad some twenty years ago still be-
longs to that corporation or its successor
has led to renewed gossip In regard to the
movements of the Wabash railroad. The
connection of the name of this company
with the matter seems to be due mainly
to the fact that 1t is believed there will be
an effort made on its part to gain access to
this city soon as it's western connections
with Baltimore are completed.
Some time ago, when John r. Mclean
and Senator Eikins began to spend money
freely to build a modern electric railroad
between this city and the Great Falls, it
was said that ultimately that line would
become part of the Wabash system when
the latter extended its line to this city.
The electric road is nearly finished, and the
plans of the Wabash as far as its Maryland
connections are concerned have been ma
tured, but the Washington part of the
scheme which was so freely gossiped about
has dropped out of the current talk, and
now very little is heard about the Wabash
establishing a passenger terminal at the
Virginia end OF the Aqueduct bridge, which
is the terminal of the new electric line to
Great Falls.
The fact is that no definite announce
ment has been made of the plans of the
Wabash terminal in this city, but it is
regarded as highly probable that when the
time comes a line will be built from It's
main stem, or the Western Maryland, d.
rectly down to the city on the north, and
permission gained from Congress to enter
the District. II, in the meantime. some
working arrangement is not made to use
the tracks of the Metropolitan branch of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
Once in the District the existing law re-
lating to the union depot gives the right
to enter 1t and make use of that terminal.
