The DSS&A Directors

Wednesday there were two extra cars attached to C&NW passenger
No. 1. They were the "Monon" of the Louisville, New Albany &
Chicago Ry., and No. 25 of the New York, Chicago & St. Louis Ry.
-the Nickle Plate line. The cars contained the directors of The
DSS&A, of which the MH&O is a part. The two cars were attached to
engine no. 39 of the MH&O and baggage car no. 18, and were taken
to Houghton in charge of engineer McCormick and conductor Johnson.

Manager John Hornby, of the MH&O met the directors here and ac-
companied them over the western portion of the road. The visit of
the directors is for the purpose of looking over the two roads
which will form a part of their new trunk line.
