The Cleveland andrTOedo Railroad bridge across the
Maumee River is in order again, and the trains
running as usual Dispatches from Chicago state
that the Chicago and Northwestern road has suf-
tered no damage from floods ice. The Toledo and
Wabash has also been very fortunate.
Erie war has been advanced stage by the arrest
OF some Of the Directors for contempt Of Court The
arrests reported to include the Vice-President
and Mr.. Fisk and are not yet concluded. The Off
GERS of the Company are now in New-Jersey. The
sooner the Courts probe this whole affair to the bot
tom the better il will be for that portion Of the share
holders who are not spectators. AS the affair now
stands the Vanderbilt party, doubt holds major
ty of the stock, no matter how 1t was issued, and
the public will gladly this property made to earn
interest on its cost, no matter who performs the
seeming miracle. The plan to build new broad
gauge road from the Atlantic and Great Western road
to Toledo will be prosecuted successfully and from
this new connection Mr.. Vanderbilt will get large
accession Of business to tho Erie road That may be
considered settled. The new line has long been
wanted and will give the Toledo and Wabash, and
other routes centering at Toledo what they have
long needed choice of lines to the East, and sutti-
Gent outlet during the suspension Of navigation.
The Michigan Southern will remain under the con-
troll of parties favorable TO the new feeder of the
Erie and broad-ga cars will run over its route to
Chicago. The public will then have the power to
choose the route it will use, and will not
trouble itself about who owns the roads.
When the new route is done, passen-
gers will. rule, take the broad of the Erie,
and care little whether Mr.. Vanderbilt sends their
freight the Erie the Northern route freightS
and time being equal AS to the investigation OF the
misconduct charged upon the DirectorSoi tne ere
road during long neriod there can be no diversity
of opinion, The public, and all shareholders in
cornoratons especiaUy desire thorough and impair
tal examination and all the facts elioted, hurt who
thew may, and will gladly SEQ the full penalty of the
law inflicted upon the purse and person of every d
rector who has violated his obligations trustee.
