State Dairymen's associa ton, still has
the books of the association, and what
is more he is likely to keep them until
the Gairymen bring suit in the matter.
The attorney general has advanced an
opinion that Mr.. Hacker has no legal
claim to the books, as a majority vote
of the association is conclusive Mr..
Hackers successor was duly elected.
and he has no further claim upon the
records of the society
The report of the association Is also
hung up, as the manuscript is among

ton of the Cincinnati Northern by the
Lake Erie and Western. This will take
place, II is thought, in the very near fu-
ture. Senator Brice and some of the
other Lake Eric and Western stockhold-

some time but there has been opposition
to the consolidation growing, it Is said,
out OF the fact that the old Cincinnati.
jackson and Mackinaw road was never
able to pay its interest, not to speak of
dividends The advocates of the CONSOLE
dation idea said that the Ohio division of
the Cincinnati, jackson and Mackinaw.
which is now the Cincinnati Northern.
would be paying investment. 1t was
argued that the Ohio division was impov-
crished by the Michigan division of the
old road. Since the Ohio division has
been cut loose from the Michigan division
this argument has proved to be sound. As
a branch Of the Lake Erie and Western,
the Cincinnati Northern would prove far
more valuable property. 1t would give
the Lake Erie and Western an entrance
into Cincinnati This would form a good
line from Cincinnati to Lake Erie. striit-
ing The lake at Sandusly. and would also
give one from indianapolis.
