The Central Railway.

We understand that the prospect for the early com
pleton of the whole of this, the " Indiana Central
Road, is highly nattering. Messrs. Newman and
Meredith, the agents Of the company have returned
from the East and have proved themselves most able
and successful negotiators They have purchased all Of
the en far below any other Indiana road, and
Of quality and weight equal TO the best.
They made sale OF the Company Bonds at ceTy
high rate, and certainly good If not better than any
other western company, not in operation.
These arrangements, enable the company to complete
the work with great rapidity-and the Board at Its
session this week, have accordingly put under contract
the heavy work between Cenrevile and Cambridge and
also the whole OF the tackaying and ballasting OF the
road, from Indianapolis to the Ohio State line.
These were the only parts Of the work, heretofore
not contracted for
These contracts require the work them, to be CON-
peted by the 1st Of December next, and the exPec-
tations that it viii be done We may, therefore, with
great reason expect be able ride from our city to
Richmond and thence by the Eaton and Hamilton roads
which will then certainly be completely to Cincinnati
by Railway before the first day of January 1903 Be-
fore that time also the road from Dayton TO Richmond
will be in operatbn-and thus the direct through route,
the ROUTE Of the West, will be open TO the
public.
These results are no longer doubtful. The energy,
prompincss and skill of the Central Company, have
put them beyond question, and too much praise can
hardly be awarded it for their efforts.
The great value and OF their road, when CON-
pIeted no doubt. It's centrally, directness--
shortncss of line and the unsurpassed fertility oil the
country through which it passes must place it in the
very highest rank of paying railroads Rnning side m
side with the National road, always within 100
il will be, and ought to be- the GREAT NATIONAL All
ROUTE from the East TO the heart of the Mssisg pP
Valley and the West
As SUCH it will command travel and freight, beyond
any competitor and its straightness, and its grades will
enable its locomotives 10 make the fastest rate OF speed
