 The Edgewood Avenue Electric Road by the. New Haven Street Railway Coms pany. .-
 The Edgewood avenue electric road has passed into the hands of the New Haven Street Railway company. This consolidation was consummated Satur- day. Absorption of the former conn., pany has created but little surprise to many, as it was considered by many a foregone conclusion that the event would take place.
 The Edgewood Avenue company has been in operation about three months, and during that time have been using the power furnished by the New Ha- ven Street Railway company. By the absorption of the former system about six miles of track have been added. When the Centerville railroad, soon to be operated by electricity, is fully equipped, the power will be furnished by the New Haven's dynamos.
