Mr.. Jewett received the Board OF Di-
rectors of the Erie Railroad. He has
had a conference with the English Com
mittee appointed to inspect and report
the condition of the road, and has agreed
that the advice of foreign stockholders
should be considered III the manage
ment. Edward Waikiki says that the
way was clear to a speedy and thorough
reorganization of the road without seri-
Gus damage to the property and inter
ests, aud as soon as reorganization was
affected they should strive for econom =
ical management, although English in
terests had power to command. The new
Erie will give its attention to internal
developments and waive all ambiguous
schemes which have proved 80 disas-
trous in the past, and they would be
satisfied in effectually controlling what
was strictly its own property and leave
the railroad wars to DO waged by others.

civil war and had ever since suffered,
