$1,000,000,000 TO BE INVOLVED
IN HARRIMAN’S GIGANTIC ROAD
Chicago, May 27.—It la understood
that E. H. Harriman has under consid
eration one of the most gigantic
schemes for an extensive combination
ol railroads. Involving $1,000,000,000,
ever thought of.
The mileage of the new system will
extend practically from the most north
ern part of the Atlantic coast to the
gulf ports with the network of tho
tracks grldlronlng New England, tho
East and middle West and tapping the
peatest freight-producing territory ln
the world.
When perfected It will be known as
the Greater Pennsylvania system. It
win 'embrace practically all the rail
road mileage in New England, together
with the present Pennsylvania lines
ea t and west of Pittsburg, through
connections to New Orleans and Mobile
to the gulf.
It will furnish an outlet to the prod
ucts of this vast section to the ports of
the Atlantic north of the Potomac and
also give them a direct route to the
Orient via the gulf and the new Isth
mian canal when completed.

declined.
It was pointed out that it was some
forty days until the Inauguration, and
that to l<»ve the large platforms and
