Proposed Railroad Extension

A Titusville telegram under date of the 5th inst. says :
Mr. J. W. Jones, President of. the Pittsburgh, Titusville and Buffalo Railroad Company, has been here the week past in consultation with Superintendent Wilson of that road, relative to several important movements, extending the importance of the whole line, which when consummated, will be of great advantage. Mr. Jones left for Buffalo on Wednesday, and it has just been developed that Buffalo and New York capitalists, in the interest of the P. T. & B. Railway, have organized a company styled the Buffalo, Pittsburgh and Western Railway, with a capital of $1,000,000, to build a road from Prospect station, on the Crosscut division of the Pittsburgh, Titusville and Buffalo Railway direct to Buffalo. It is believed that this is a part of the new scheme of extending the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railway to the West.
