B. AND O. R. R. MERGER
Rumor It Will Be United With Read
ing and JERSEY Central.

In connection with the recent changes in
the official staff of the Baltimore and Ohio
road there is a story going the rounds in
Baltimore to the effect that the Pennsyl-
vania railroad authorities are beginning to
look with suspicion upon the vigorous policy
of President Murray in trying to keep the
company distinct from the Pennsylvania.
Rumor has 1t that the Pennsylvania will
soon put the Baltimore and Ohio, the Read
ing and the Jersey Central all under one
management, and that President Baer of
the Reading will be put in charge of the al
lied roads.
1t is pointed out that Mr.. Baer has shown
remarkable ability in bringing the Reading
from receivership to a position where 1t
can pay dividends. Moreover. the centraii-
cation of the three systems under one con-
troll would simplify the management and in
sure the continuation of the Pennsylvania
influence IN each. This rumor was repeated
by a railroad man who is usually well In
formed in Pennsylvania matters.
