ROADS CONSOLIDATE.
Report Says Chicago junction and
Uarbor Belt Line Combine

Chicago, May 25.--The consolidation
of the Chicago Junction railway with
the Indiana Harbor Belt line was re-
ported at Hammond, Ind, yesterday,
and was generally credited among rail-
way officials there. The story was that
the Vanderbilt interests in control of
the Indiana Harbor line had bought,
through John A. Spoor and Richard
Fitzgerald. majority of the stock of
the Chicago Junction. the deal to be-
come effective on July /.
The Hammond report is that the Van
derbilts long have tried to get control of
the Junction road i'm order TO have
reader access to the Chicago stock
yards.
The report says that another deal is
in contemplation by which control of
the coal roads of John r. Walsh will be
purchased The Chicago Junction will
be operated by the Indiana Harbor rail-
road, and the general offices viii be
moved TO Gibson, Ind. II Is also said
that the auditing department OF the
Chicago 4 Indiana Southern, now locat-
cd at Cleveland, will be moved to Glib
son, which is now the headquarters OF
the Indiana Harbor railroad, where a
$50 900 office building will he built.
All the stock of the Chicago Junction
Railroad company has been held by the
Chicago Junction railways and Union
Stockyards company. There are % 900
shares of 500 par value each.
Mr. Spoor, president OF the Junction
Railroad company. is in New York.
Richard Fitzgerald, vice president and
general uperlntendent. said in relation
to the reported sale:
The matter Is news to me, ] don t
own dollars worth of the stock of the
road, nor does Mr. Spoor. The real
owners are about 5000 people in the
New England states. Nathaniel Thayer
OF Boston is chairman of the board Of
trustees. The Nanderbilts work hand
in-hand with us now. and have the
same rights and privileges that they
could acquire, so cannot see any grea t
advantage in their possible purchase.
