H e w a s a c c o m panied by his s tenographer a n d b y Super intendent Albert A l l e n a n d b y Roadmaster Patrick Clancy of t h e E . , C. & N, Mr. Caffrey spent the n i g h t in Cortland a n d left this morn ing on the 9 o'clock train for Elmira , w h e r e h i s car w a s del ivered to t h e Erie railroad. H e w a s this m o r n i n g accompanied w e s t w a r d by Messrs. A l l en a n d Clancy^
To a S T A N D A R D reporter Mr. Caffrey said he w a s very m u c h pleased w i t h the E . , C. & N . road, a n d w i t h w h a t h e s a w a long i:s l ine , referring both to t h e rail road property and to the places t h r o u g h w h i c h i t passed. H e could g i v e n o opinion as to the probable purchase or lease of t h e road by the L e h i g h . , T h a t w a s s o t in his province. H e w a s s imply directed to c o m e up here and g o over the road, see all he could and report. H i s report w o u l d be favorable to the absorption of t h e E . , C. & N . by the Leh igh . H e t h o u g h t that in a n y e v e n t the road should by all m e a n s be e x t e n d e d to Lake Ontario. Lie did no t bel ieve that Cortland or other p laces a long the l ine of t h e road would find it to their d i sadvantage to h a v e the Leh igh g e t possession of th i s road. The Leh igh is a big road. I t has over 2 ,500 mi les of track. I t keeps its roadbeds i n fine condit ion and uses first c lass rol l ing s tosk a n d g i v e s excellent, train service wherever it goes ,
The S T A N D A R D m a n replied that this w a s all k n o w n to be true, but that Cortland people feared if the L t h i g h g o t control of the E . , C, & N. the car shops would be m o v e d a w a y and that a prominent iudustry of the place wou ld be lost . Cortland people also feel very friendly toward t h e present m a n a g e m e n t and are pleaded w i t h the h igh ly a c c o m m o d a t i n g spirit a l w a y s manifes ted by the officials
Mr. CaiTrey replied that h e s a w n o reason w h y the shops should be m o v e d a w a y if a c h a n g e occurred. They d o not form a n expei s ive plant to run, and they would really be needed r ight here for the h ighest e fne i tney of the road. H e did not antic ipate . that t h e y w o u l d be m o v e d and he thought that Cortland people need not g ive themse lves a n y uneasiness i a this direction, In regard to the local m a n a g e m e n t , of course he could not speak wi th a n y authority , but it had a l w a y s been a pol icy of the road, where a c o n n e c t i n g . road had been absorbed t o cont inue the local m a n a g e m e n t if i t w a s satitfactury. H e k n e w that the m a n a g e m e n t of the E . , C. & N . , is he ld i n v e r y h igh es teem by his road and h e did not bel ieve that a n y material c h a n g e s w o u l d be m a d e in case the Lehigh took possession.
The reporter ment ioned the act ion of the S y r a / u s e Business Men's association a couple of w e e k s a g o in appoint ing a commit t ee to confer w i t h the Leh igh Val l ey officials and see if in s o m e w a y that road could not ge t a n entrance to the Salt c i ty a n d thus afford t h e m better shipping faci l i t ies . Mr. Caffrey said that he k n e w n o t h i n g more of that c o m m i t t e e than w h a t h e had seen in the papers, but did not doubt that the Leh igh would try to g e t into S y racuse if it were possible. H e s h o w e d by s o m e chance remarks that this thought had been in h is mind in m a k i n g the present inspect ion of the E , C. & N . A m o n g other t b i o g s h e said that h e had remarked to Mr. A l l en yes terday a t Cazenovia that it w a s a great p i t y tha t the W e s t Shore road had ever been permit ted to g e t control o f " 0 e Chenango Va l l ey road . w h i c h crosses the E , C. & N . a t Ripplet on, as that would h a v e been their w a y into Syracuse . H e also spoke of the distance from Cortland tc Syracuse by w a y of t h e Christian H o l l o w val ley f rom Tully and of the salt we l l s there in the va l ley .
Mr. Clancy here remarked that a survey w a s m a d e by the E . C. & N* several years a g o and w a s n o w o n file of a spur from Truxton off through t h e Labrador flals t o Syracuse , a n d Mr. Caffrey b y his reply s h o w e d ;himself ac quainted w i t h t h e fact of this survey .

STANDARD said Wednesday night was jost exactly right. There is nothing to be added to it. No proposition of sny kind has been made by one road to the other. There is no use in disguis ing the fact that the Lehigh Valley is looking our road over. When they get through with their inspection tbey may or they may not make a proposition to Mr. Corbin. If they should do so and it should be acceptable to Mr. Corbin there would be very likely to be a change. If it was not acceptable it would probably end the whole thing. But at preient you are wholly correct in saying that nothing at all has b e n done.'* >~
