MORE CoNsoLIpATIoN.--f report be
true, Jay Gould and his Eric associates
have carried their point against the man
ayers of the Toledo, Wabash and West
ern Railway, abandoning their proceed
ings against the latter company on con-
dition of being admitted into its direc-
tory. AS the Cincinnati Gazette remarks,
this looks like a,beginng of railroad
consolidation of as great magnitude as
any yet made. Itcompleted it, of course,
implies the building of connection
from some point on the Atlantic and
Great Western to some point on the To
ledo and Wabash, probably at Toledo
This would give the Erie Road line by
way of Lafayette, Indiana, to Quincy,
Illinois, on the Mississippi, and another
by way of Logansport to l}urlington,. on
the Mississippi AT these points it will
come in competition for the trade of the
roads further to the West. BY this the
Erie Road will secure, not exactly a
route to Chicago, but route to points
where it will intercept the trade of a
large region which has been tributary to
Chicago, and will offer it q shorter route
to the East. aa. d aat -. uGeIsBG
