Feb. 20 For Several davs it was rumored in well Informed financial circles that a gigantic railroad merger would soon be formed, which would Dut all former mergers ever formed In the shadow. Today more definite informa tion regarding the proposed mercer was ! obtained from a well informed and thor oughly reliable source. According to the information thus obtained the scheme means the consolidation of the Northern Pacific and the Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul and the Great Northern and the Burlington into two great transcontinen tal lines. It also means an attemnt to shut out the Harriman interests on the Pacific Coast and a desoerate fiirht be- h fenr Una nanlM A that Harriman lines. ' .'-.'.'.-"' If successfully carried out the nlan would mean the formation of two of the greatest railroad systems in the world. The Great Northern, with its $120,000.- 000 of iron ore lease, and the sale of rights to its own and Burlington stock holders amounting to $50,000,000 more win cement these two roads into one vast double track system to the coast The Northern Pacific whose stock is actuallv worth 9300 on the basis of its earnings may easily devote $100,000,000 toward the purchase of stock in the Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul, now extending to the Pacific Coast and practically parallel ing the Northern Pacific The Chicaro. Milwaukee & St Paul will find it more convenient at points along the route to use the Northern Pacific tracks. Indeed. conferences have Already been held be tween the omelets of the two roads to that end. !
