Is to Be Given Soon by the
Western Maryland Rail
road Company.

CUMBERLAND. Md. Sept. IL
That the Western Maryland Rail
way Company is shortly to do some
extensive new financing is the re-
port in important financial circles.
The proceeds realized through the
sale of the s1O.OOO.OOO p per cent.
gold notes, which were dated jan
uary i, 1912, and VIII mature July
/, 1915, 1t is declared will be used
to liquidate Indebtedness incurred
through the extensive improvement
and betterment plans completed and
under way. These were necessary
to prepare the road for the greatly
increased tonnage which is to come
through the connection with the
and Lake Erie at Con-
nellsville. A considerable amount
has also been expended for equip
ment. 1t Is contended in the re-
ports that the large amount already
expended is not drop in the bucket
to what will be needed when the
broad, comprehensive plans already
worked out by President Robertson
and the directors are consummated.
The new low-grade road from
near Hagerstown to Baltimore. it is
declared. is surely coming, double
tracking of the whole system to
Connellsville to be done in the next
few years, while the building OF the
Arlington line around the Union
tunnels 10 Hillen Station is a ne
cessity that scarcely can DE avoided.
There is also more work to be done
in increasing facilities than anyone
imaglnes. There IS to be built at
least one and very PROBABLY two
more piers at Port covlngton, in ad!
dition to the large structure now
well toward completion.
Then. the Western Maryland will
not much longer put up with having
its central offices scattered in -four
different buildings in Baltimore. and
the erection OF large Office build
ing. that will equal in size most OF
the buildings of the kind in the
financial district, vii soon be got un-
der way.
Considerable more work remains
TO be done at Port Covington in the
way of the additional tracks and q
new warehouse building.
