New York. Oct 23.-Rapid progress is

Ever since the two Pittsburg companies
Of the Gould system went into the hands
Of receivers there has been a conflict Of
interests. not only between the first and
second mortgage bondholders. but also
between the holders OF both these secu-
rifles and the Wabash Railroad. the
guarantor OF the 5000 600 notes secured
by SO. 1000 consolidated bonds of the
Wheeling and Lake Erie.
It was this conflict OF interests that
caused the reorganization committee OF
the Western Maryland Railroad. after
waiting months for the bondholders Of
the Pittsburg lines to agree among them
selves TO temporarily abondon the plan
TO merge the three properties, build an
extension from Cumberland, Nd. 10 New

be made with the Wabash-Pittsburg Ter

and the foreclosure Of the former com

The Importance OF the Wabash-Pitts-

arises from the fact that the company's
first mortgage bonds were very generally
distributed among trusts companies

treatment of the Wabash-Pittsburg first

Macleod writes as follows regarding the
project:
What is known as the Nicholsville di-

Company will be a line. when completed,
twelve miles long, connecting the cities
Of Lexington and Nicholasville.
while some work was done by the
company in the fall of 1908. the contract

Out in the country. not far from the
city, there was rural practitioner who
took an AK and chopped out his telc-
