AXLE COMPANY SELLS.
Absorbed by a Big Combination of
Lighting Concerns.

The Electric Axle Light and Power
company, of New York city, which has
a branch Office and plant in Topeka,
located in the old Sixth avenue round
house, just diagonally across from the
Santa Fe depot, has undergone another
change in management. and has been
merged into the Consolidated Railway
Electric Lighting and Equipment COM
pany. The deal was completed few
days ago and circulars have been issued
to the stockholders, setting forth the
terms.
The Consolidated Railway Electric
Lighting and Equipment company was
recently organized under the laws of
New Jersey, with a capital stock of
SIG, 000 600, and was Incorporated for the
purpose of combining a number of rail
way lighting and brake companies, the
largest and last to be absorbed being
the Electric Axle Light and Power COM
pany- The other companies which COM
pose this syndicate are the Columbian
Electric Car Lighting and Brake COM
pany, American Railway Electric Uni
ted Lighting company, European Rail
way Electric Lighting company, United
Electric company, Lindstrom Brake
company. and the Railway TriDlex
formed of some of the Strong. est railway
lighting companies of the east and con-
trolls a great many valuable railway
equipment patents.
II
the company, is at the Thr0op hotel in
Topeka, having come west for a two
months trip in the interest of the
company. IN speaking of the reorgani-
cation, Mr.. Fanshawe said: 1.-THE COM
pany is now composed of a syndicate
of the largest and strongest electric
railway lighting and equipping COM
panieS of the east, and controls many
valuable patents covering the lighting
and equipment of railway coaches. The
company also has control of a valuable
patent refriSerating car, which is CIV
ing excellent satisfaction, and is prov
ing to be a success.
1T is the intention of the company to
take immediate steps to better the
equipment and service on the railroads
using the axle electric light, and plans
to that end are being perfected. There
is no doubt but that in the very near
future the branch of the company at
Topeka will be enlarged and much more
machinery and equfpping facilities be
placed here"
