Conferences relative to the reorgunl
xutluu of the Kultimure and Ohio rail
road are heinir held daily, and It Is
probable thut the full reorganization
committee will be annoimied litis week.
Who the foreign members of the com
mittee will be is not cMictly known, but
they ure likely to be representatives of
I muses who flouted the bonds abroad.
The piirchiise by these houses of the
coupons on Haltiniore und Ohio bonds
puts them in a position to dictate terms
in the reorganization scheme If they see
tit to do ho. Tin- understanding of the
New York directors who ure acting as
a reorganization committee Is that the
London houses do not Intend to pri..s
matters, but on the contrary thai they
w ill act in consonance with the New
York committee. No properly has as
yet been prepared, und none w 111 be for
some time. The Baltimore and Ohio
Is a large and complicated system, und
progress In the readjustment of its
finances. It Is stated, must necessarily
be slow.

the measure proposing that the .Man

faithfully carry out its provisions. We
will not make the change ut once, but
will take tlie time allotted us In the
bill, so that we may procure the best
I available light. We have been experl-
iiicntlug with several devices for light
: ing the cars, but the system now In use

1171--. Does each successive seasou witness
V V I IV such an iucrease in the volume of our
business, enabling us to introduce finer goods, buy
in larger quantities and cater more successfully to
the wants of the public?
G It because the people are satisfied with our
method of doing business and have learned to
look to us for the best assortment of House Fur
nishings at the most reasonable prices?
RMay be so; at all events you will do well to look
the matter up, and a visit to our establish
ment just now will lie particularly interesting, as
many new novelties are being shown, including
a mammoth display of Baby Carriages.
