BALTIMORE, August 81. - The re.
action in the financial district to the
report of a contemplated merger of
the Western Maryland Railway and
the Washington, Baltimore and An
napolis Electric Railway and transfer
of the control of the combined roads
TO the New York Central system Is the
cancellation Of many selling orders
by interests other than those which
have been accommodating stocks of
both companies for weeks.
Also it was reported that the in
terests which have been picking up
w, B. and A. shares without reach
ing for them raised the limit and
thus became competitors for the
limited amount of stock available at
current prices.
Engineers Make Survey.
Engineers sent here by the New
York Central have made a complete
survey of both properties and are now
reducing their findings to writing, TO
be studied by the New York Central
mana cement.
The financial district is making
much of the fact that since the Aldred
group became identified with the w,
b. & A. a rather extensive plan of
DSSlNi 10 DCillb oul ItOdu-
bed is being ballasted. new rails laid
on some sections, bridges strengthened
and the system generally improved.
Acquisition of the two properties by
the New York Central would not ne
cessitate any expenditure for physical
connection. A spur at Westport con-
meets the roads. and cars of the West
ern Maryland are transferred over this
track to the W., b. & A. and hauled
to Washington. The Western Mary
land connects at Connellsville, Pa.
with the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie,
part of the New York Central system.
Shipping Circles Stirred.
The reported intention of the New
York Central TO enter Baltimore and
Washington, provided it can obtain
control of the Western Maryland and
w, B. & A. on favorable terms, has
aroused much interest in shipping
circles.
II the New York Central comes here
Baltimore will be served by the three
greatest systems in the East, the Bal

 Personalities enter into his polti cal life.
 General Ferrera, now leading the revolution in Honduras, is one of the ablest men in the country, but his personal grievances often overshadow his political affiliations.
 He formerly was a Red-but the last revolution found him the lead ing general of the Blues.
 Roque Lopez, minister of war for the Reds, had caused some domestic trouble for Ferrera. Ferrera made known what he intended to do to Roque, so Roque sent a friend to Ferrera's home with bomb.
 Fortunately or unfortunately no damage ves done except to the house.
 So in order to- get the minister, Ferrera joined the revolution against his former political allies, 4 S for the native, warfare is bis EA form of relaxation.

 Four or five years later Jefferies came back to Honduras-his exile having been revoked by a new government--and lived quietly. pursuing his profession of engineer with great success. Soon he had amassed fortune.
 During this time he was employed as consulting engineer by many of the Central American gov. >ernments and by huge corporations interested in developing the countries His principal works were road and bridge building.

 A story indicative of Jeneres character, and which also demonstrates the jealousy between the commands of General Ferrera and General Calias, both of the "rebel" forces in the curren, Honduras rebellion, is related as follows
 Jeferies, officer in the Ferrera command. standing in the door of his quarters following occupation of Tegucigalpa, Two officers of the Carias unit staggered drunkenly towards him and reaching position before the door, hurled several insulting remarks in bis direction.
