Jay Gould is Said to be Moving on the
Richmond Terminal.

New YORK, Nov. 1.-THE Commercial
Advertiser this afternoon says: Among
the changes going on in railway control,
the latest that is clearly discernible is the
passing of the control of the Richmond
Terminal to Jay Gould. He is understood
to have said to some of his friends to-day
that he had secured enough of the stock
of the company to control it. In Rich
mond, Terminal people were very reticent
about the matter this morning. President
Unman declined to confirm the story, but
refused to deny it. Others who know
what is going IN, were less reserved, and
while they refused to be quoted, said
the fact was undeniable, and that Jay
Gould had secured control of Richmond
Terminal.
