Gen, Dodge, who was in the city yesterday, refused to tin- bart any inforimation on the subject, but itis stated on good authority that such consolida- ton has virtually been decided upon, and will soon be consummated. It ty further stated that Mr A. A, ‘Talmadge, General Superintendent of the Missouri, ig. to. hol. tha same position on tha consolidated Company. It 1s the evl- dent intentlon of Goult and his syndleate to uuulgamate and consalidate thelr {mmense systein of ronds In such @ ‘munner as to de atroy thelr previous identity, and to be bet r enabled to! handle thei doula wi to With this last splieme completed, Gould w! have bls entire vystem of roads consolidate into three companies, namely: the Wabavl, ‘| during | the St. Louls & Pacific, the Union & Kansas Pa- elfic, and the Missourl & Texas Pacific. And these three Sonipaules will comprise all the romts that have Pactic routes in thelr eliar- ter with the exception of the Atchison, To- peka & Santa Fé. From what lias occurred Jast week or so, it is evi- dent, however, that the Gould synill- ents will virtually control the — pul- Jey of this line also, as arrangements Inve lately been effected between Gould and the Atelilson, Topeka & Santa Fé managers which makes the latter to all intents and pur- poses a Gould road, It Is even hinted iat the probabilities are that the synulente will have actual control of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fé before many months have passed, With this necession Gould will have gained his ends, Ie with control every Pacific route that can possibly be built, with the exception. of the one contemplated by the Chicago, Bure ington & Quincy, but this latter is rather chimerteal, and° Gould will be powerful enough to prevent the construction of thls Ine should it be attempted. But the tkell- hood fs that It will never be attempted, for the General. Manager of the Burlington stated only ao day or two ago that itis not yet by any means certain that his road will even be pushed forward to Denver. RAILROAD AND WARUIOUSE COM- MISSION.
