THE MICHIGAN CENTRAL.

The fight for the possession Of tho Michigan
Central continues with uuabntcd vlgor, aud
Jay Gould leaves nothing undono TO obtain tho
coveted prize. But II now looks as II the
shrewlncss which has characterized hls move
mcnts 10 far will avail him nothing in this In
stance, It Is claimed that Messrs. Samuel
sloan and Moscs Taylor have succeeded IN MAX
lug arrangements With some Of the partlcs In
tcrested "a tho Canada Bouthern, on whom Afr.
Gould had been depending, by which the pres
cnt Board Of Directors viii be Fe-cloctcd, except
two pcrsons, and in place Of these two men
Interested IN tho Canada Southern will be clect-
cd. It is too soon ret however, to bet on the
result Of the election, Tor there Is many slip
between the cup and the lip, especially when
Jay Gould Is eoneotned f. tho % nstter: IT ThC
not willing to giye up tho light until tho last
moment. It 4 claimed that Gould y 6cstowing
there is some danger Of lis loslnE hls hold on
tho Northwestern and Rock Island Railroads,
II would DO rather queer II, at tho very moment
when ho WAS ready to sec his work for the
establishment OF a through line between TIC
Atlautic and Pacific accomplished, the whole
scheme should tumble to pieces.
