Seek Authority For Railroad Purchase
Washington September 26. Authority to jointly acquire the Lake Erie and Fort Wayne railway was sought from the interstate commerce commission today in an application by the New York Central and the New York St. Louis and Chicago railroads. The Wabash subsidiary was invited to participate in control. The line to be bought is a five mile terminal line within Fort Wayne Indiana. The Wabash already seeks to buy it but the New York Central says sole Wabash control would suppress competition.
