New York, April lO.-A line of rail-
road from the Atlantic to the Pacific
under one management. the dream of
transportation leaders for many years,
Will be an accomplished fact in a short
time, according to opinions of num-
Der Of we'll known financiers. Under
the direction of j. Pierpont Morgan g.
Co., and Kuhn, Loeb Il Co., the I'M
derwriting OF this vast enterprise,
which dwarfs the Northern Securities
merger by comparison, is we'll under
way, and Wall street is expecting a re-
port of success in short time.
The railroad systems involved in
this combination are the New York
Central and the many lines it controls,
including Lake Shore, Michigan Cen.
trail, West Shore, Boston and Albany,
Big Four and number of smaller
companies; the Chicago g. Northwest
ern system, and the Union Pacific,
controlling the Southern Pacific, Ore.

Startling Array of riiIIions.
The aggregate mileage of these roads
is more than 30, 900 miles, and the val
ne of their combined capital stock rep
resents startling array of millions.
This first transcontinental system, in
fact, would tap the largest portion of
the Atlantic and Pacific seaboards, and
draw on the richest portions of the
United States for business
1t is stated that this merger would
not be open to the same line of attack
as was the Northern Securities Com.
pany. for the three systems are not
competitive and there would not be the
same argument Of mbination in re-
straint Of trade. The advantage to be
gained in through rates, both in freight
and passenger business, would be enor-
nous.
There have been reports for months
of consolidation of these three systems
into a transcontinental line, and the
stock market has been advanced re-
peatedly on rumors that important an
nouncements were to be made. Re-
ports of the deal have been believed in
some quarters and doubted in others,
but the success of the underwriting
seems to make certain the Inauguration

U. s. soldiers who served in Cuba during the Spanish war know what this disease is, and that the ordinary remedies have little more effect than so much water.
