RAILROAD !
(Obeervcr Special)
New York. 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.
