New York Central Merger.

The report that the New York CCn-
trail Railroad company is formulating
plan for the consolidation Of all tie
lines and subsidiaries within the state
of New York under one ownership and
general management has been praes
tically admitted and therefore may be
treated as authentic. If this merger IL
completed It will bring together under
one Official head $1,000 miles OF track.
$4,000, 900 of annual earnings and
an aggregate capital of $1,000, OOO,-
900.
Such a combination, II consum-
mated, would doubtless have to square
itself with the Sherman law in court.
II the merger of the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific, still awaiting the de-
cision of the supreme court, should
eventually be declared invalid, Il
would seem impossible for the New
York Central deal successfully to run
the gAmut. 1t is remarkable that
notice of the proposed merger should
be given out Jus. at this time, al
though, of course, Il goes without
saying that every effort will be made
to satisfy technically the demands OF
the law.
One point to be watched Is whether
It Is any easier to merge lines within
a state than to merge them when they
traverse several states, as In the case
of the Hill and Hartman roads. Per-
haps it is here that the Central relies
on avoiding the obstacles that the
other roads have had diffioulty ID
overcome.
