Oldtime Rivals Seem Chummy-No Deal,
Only Accidental Meeting.

The sight of E. H. Hartman and James j.
Hill. the two greatest rivals in the railroad
world and their associates. Otto II. Kahn. OF
Kuhn. Loeb & Co, and George f. Baker, OF the
First National Bank. walking down Pine street
arm in arm last Wednesday led those who Wit
messed il to believe the millennium was at hand
The sight was almost too much for some or
the oldtmers in the district. They could hardly
believe their eyes when they saw these old foes
on so many a financial battlefield apparently as
chunany as a lot OF schoolgirls. What they
talked about could not be learned officially. but
the general impression was that there was some
big deal in prospect, such, for instance, as tho
formation of a billion dollar holding company
10 take over all the Hill-Harriman railroads
and as many others could be conveniently
gathered in.
Investigation. however, revealed the fact that
the meeting was purely accidental and II Is
understood, though this is not official that they
talked of everything except business and politics
