vesttgate.

Washington, Feb. 27.-The depart
ment OF justice, it became known to-
night, has been looking into relations
between the Pennsylvania railroad
and the Norfolk & Western with the
idea OF effecting separation Of the
two roads or bringing suit under the
Sherman antitrust act. In the opinion
OF the department the two roads are
competitive. The Pennsylvania owned
on January I, 1913. $41.762,s0O COM
mon and s11,320.0OO preferred Nor
folk d Western stock. On October
81. 1912, the outstanding stock Of
the Norfolk & Western was given as
s12o,312.40O.
The department has had an eye on
the connection with these Dads for
several months. Recently represent
atives of the Pennsylvania were told
that the department looked on the
roads as competitive and a suggestion
was made that Attorney General Nc
reynolds would like a separation.
No assurances were given the depart
ment at that time and none had been
received tonight, that the Pennsyl-
vania intended to give up it's Norfolk
& Western stock.
While 1t was not understood that
the Pennsylvania actually has thrown
down the gauge Of b. tile. it was
reported here that it might be ex.
pected to fight. 1t was said that Penn
sylvania officials do not regard the
Norfolk and Western as a competitive
line within the meaning Of the Sher-
man law.
