to the lnter-Ocean from Washington
says:
while the eyes of the whole coun-

the railroad world, a greater and
more extensive combination of rail
road interests has been in process of
perfection until now plans are ma
tured for a public declaration of these
plans.
More than one thousand million
dollars of capital are involved. This
colossal merger. when perfected, will
be known as the Greater Pennsylya-
MIA System. 1t will embrace practic-
ally all the railroad mileage of the
New England states together with the
present Pennsylvania lines with

The enterprise is a stupendous en-

surveys have been made and that the

such is also the official and scientific

MURDER PRIEST
WHO TOLD SECRET
New York Has Another Mystery to
Solve in Death of Prominent Ar
menian--Body in Trunk.

New York, May 27.--Up to an early
hour today, though they had thor
oughly secured the Armenian district
of the city for suspects, the police
have failed to make any arrests in
connection with the murder of an Ar
menian priest identified as Father
Kaspar whose body, doubled up in a
trunk was found Sunday in small
apartment house at 333 West Thirty
seventh Street.
Three Armenians, two of whom
were dodgers in the tenement where
the body was found are suspected /.
An investigation has revealed that the
murder might have been due to an
exposure recently of an attempt to
usurp the throne of Seryia by pre-.
tender who is supposed to be in Jer-
sey City, New Jersey. The story is
said to have been given out by the
murdered priest.

teen years railroad service, said yes

Several questions of criminal prose
