C&O to Buy Line
In Nearby Virginia

The Interstate Commerce
Commission today authorized
sale of the Washington & Old
Dominion Railroad in nearby
Virginia to Chesapeake g. Ohio
Railway Co. for approximately
$45O,OOO.
Since 1885, w. & o. D. has
been wholly owned by Davis

The ICC said c. & o. stated
lit did not propose a merger OF

nor did the larger railroad IN
tend to operate or acquire track
age rights over the properties OF
w. & 0. d. Thus, the little line
that started before the Civil War
will continue to be operated as
a separate railroad.
The ICC order authorizes C
& o. to issue up to $3.50 shares
of SIS par value common stock
to be exchanged for $50 shares
of capital stock of w. & o. D.
The exchange ratio, the ice
said, was based by C. e. o. on q
total value OF $450.000 fol
w. 81 Cd. and a price of SOS. Sc
for w. g. obs common stock.
w. g. Cd. was started before
the Civil War as part of the

Bottle Kibitzers
Bottle Kibitzers
BY JACK JONAS

Those kibitzers who stood
on the rooftops to watch that
sea battle the other day on
Haifa, Israel, had it pretty
comfortable compared to
Washington's thrill seekers of
nearly 100 years ago.
On July II. 1868, Growers
Theater was Offering San
ford's Troupe Gin a rich vari-
ETY. of their most amusing
acts, songs, burlesques, and
dances, among which will be
a version of Romeo and
Juliet The Rival Lovers
etc"
Also, The Star was report
ing that day, there were epic
Mics" for the amusement of
Washington residents - "a
number of these delightful
parties are announced for to-
night. I. There will no doubt
be much enjoyment at all
these places"
But il is doubtful If any
standing room was sold at
Growers Theater, or whether
the "PiczNicS" got their de-
served attention. The big at
traction that day and night,
and all the next day, was the
battle between Confederate
and Union troops at Fort
Stevens, out Georgia avenue.
Gentlemen and their ladies
in coaches, horsemen and
horsepower, and thousands
afoot jammed the Seventh
street road (now Georgia
avenue), not as refugees from
battle but as SightseerS on
their way to watch it.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-11-05

A STAR reporter, who went
out the second day of the
battle, described his progress
this way:
ITO go out Seventh street
road was the correct thing
yesterday. Supposing you
couldn't afford a horse-with
flour at SIS per barrel-there
we're the street cars to the
Boundary, thence on foot. We
went out.
1T is proper, we see by our
morning contemporaries, to
note progress by the yard in
going out the Seventh street
road.
"At the Boundary our pro-
gress was barred by the diff
Guilty in getting lager. There
were bars in plenty Seventh
street road is lined with
them and lager in plenty
but not a drop to drink -
military orders against it. The
ar-keepers looked sorry and
we looked sorry.
"Then we saw some soldiers
coming from the rear en-
trance of a restaurant wiping
their mouths. We went in
and came out, wiping our
mouth"
So many Washington people
went to watch the battle that
on the third day-by then the
Confederates had been routed
and were in headlong re-
treat-mounted soldiers were
posted on the main roads out
Of the city TO turn the
citizenry back.
BY the fourth day, though,
the battle had moved far from
Washington, and Growers
Theater and the pic Mics
had their crowds back.
