An euormou investment dc- iiaud, apparently pent-up for ears through -fear of adverse legislation, brake forlhv like a iood in the few weeks following election,, when it became apparent that the so-railed radical Hoc bad lost the balance l ,:ower in congress, that the ail-, ministration looked with favor uyon railroad consolidation, and hat the roads had been success-j ful in increasing their net earu-j digs through a reductiou in op- 'rating costs. Tangible evidence f this iiujiroveincTil, furuiidicd by the resumption of dividend on -locks of gme of the southwestern carrier, si imulateil tin- ! 'eiiiand, which came from large j Mstitntioiis and wealthy indivnj-J uals. as well at a myriad of small j investors.
