From this it would appear that the first five men.
toned lines of road, which cost about $50 900 OO0
and whose stocks are selling in the neghborhood
of par, only earned among them all about as much
in January last as the Erie road alone. The month
was good one on all the lines, Gnd therefore
affords a fair basis Of comparison.
The final details Of the consolidation Of the
Cleveland and Pittsburg and Chicago and Fort
Wayne were settled this morning, to the satisfac-
tion Of all perties. There appears to have been
an effort to keep the condition of the Cleveland
and Pittsburg from the public. We learn, how
ever that the increase in the earnings of the line
was in January $35 900, in February t35 900, and
promises to be $40 900 In March.
The war between the rival boards reached q
fresh stage to-day. The upper board passed a re-
solution expeIng any Of its members who enter
the public board during business hours, and pro-
hibting them from giving orders to be executed
there. The effect Of this resolution 10 to withdraw
from the public board all the business which
was done there by members OF the upper
board, and. on the other hand. to deprive
the members Of the upper board Of place
where they can transact business between the
morning and afternoon sessions or after four
P. NJ Whether, under Tho constitution and by
the right Of prohibiting its members from trans
acting business elsewhere than In the board, and
at hours fixed by the board, is question which
was probably discussed be. ore the resolution was
adopted. II seems likely that the inconvenience
which the new rule will cause TO members of the
board will lead to the establishment, under the
auspices Of the Stock Exchange, Of regular
lobby room where business can be transacted at
all no urs, while the public board may, perhaps.
seek redress at the hands Of the Legislature.
There is business enough for both boards,
and the more influential and experienced
members Of the Stock Exchange witness with
regret the attempts which are being made
by their less liberal or less reasonable COL
leagues to crush out an institution which was doing
no injury, and Was certainly widening the circle Of
business
