AN INTERNATIONAL >L1NE.
Nothing Known Here of Canadian
Offer to Buy B. and M. Stool.

Nothing Is known officially at the inter-
state commerce commission, according to
Secretary Moseley of the offer said to have
been made by the Canadian Pacific to buy
the Boston and Maine stock held by the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
road.
cannot see that such a purchase
would be any affair of the commission" :"
said Secretary Moseley, ANY more than if
some corporation were to purchase The
Evening Star. We know nothing official
ly OF the matter, and counsel for the Ca
madam Pacific road, with whom I talked
last night, had heard nothing. The pro-
1ected sale does not come under the juris-
diction of the commission"
At New Haven it is said that positive
confirmation has been obtained of the re-
port that the Canadian Pacific has offered
to purchase the stock.
President Mellen of the New Haven
line. said last night:
Whoever purchases our Boston and
quired at the same time to take the con-
tracts of the New England Investment
and Security Company settling it's indebt-
erness, which we now hold. To the sale
of the Boston and Maine stock separately
am opposed; to the sale of both, consid-
ering the controversies that have arisen,
l should feel disposed to assent. There Is
little likelihood that the matter will be
concluded hastily.
1T is large transaction and will take
considerable time to arrange in all its de-
tails. Nor is it by any means certain
that sale will result. However it Is
most encouraging to learn there are par.
an undue price for what we have ac-
Quired."

I'VE would recommend that hereafter
