Whisky losses in warehouse could save importers hundreds annually.

Its Purchase by the Thompson Brice Syndicate Is Denied
Wheeling April 5 The report that the Thompson Brice syndicate would purchase the Cleveland Lorraine and Wheeling road is denied. Thompson passed through without an inspection party and said Selah Chamberlain of Cleveland once owned the controlling stock plus other large blocks. The road has earned more money this season than any Ohio line of its mileage. If the Thompson Brice interests can take Chamberlain stock they may, but a sale outright would require a drop in earning power.
