HH WASHINGTON, Nov. 55.?"If tlie J
. uiy 01 wneenng iiad. granted the
B franchises for terminal facilities that
H; city would have secured the "WheeLj
ins. "Way nesbu rij & Eastern railroad.'"
This was the statement of Virgil
B- C. Bogue, consulting engineer of the
K| I Wabash Railroad Company, of New
. York, last night. Engineer Bogue.
jgy who is regarded as "an authority on
dpi^S'.: railroad construction, with a party of
"Wabash railroad officials, is now inspecting
the route of the Greene county
road, the tidewater road of the
great Gould railroad syndicate. Mr.
Bogue will be remembered as having
iptlw been over the proposed route of the
! Wheeling, Waynesburg & Eastern road i
about two years ago, when the building
of that road was being agitated, .
especially in Wheeling, where termi- i
k' nal entries were being asked for by (
Ifefr: the; company. In an interview, Mr ?
Bogue said: i
"The Wheeling, Waynesburg .y. i
Eastern railroad will be built and the a
time is not far distant. The line "\
'..'. would have been completed by this I
time and the city of "Wheeling granted e
tis the' terminal franchises. Without
k; . these rights the road would be im- n
| practicable. I am confident that the t
road will be built. I think that Greene t'
I county lias a great future and they tl
F will soon need more railroads; fpr. J?s_ ,h
