ASK RAILROADS TO CONSOLIDATE IN FEW SYSTEMS Plan Being Worked Out by Commerce Commission to Regulate Lines. WASHINGTON'. Oct. 6.—Congress will be asked to order the country’s' railroads to consildate into a few systems if they will not voluntarily merge under the plan being worked out by the Interstate Commerce Commission, Senator Cummins, lowa,/said today. Compulsory consolidation is another of the Bteps contemplated by Cummins in the revamping of the entire Esch-Cum-mins ijailroad law to put “teeth”, in it “It is obvious we can never have the proper sort of railroad regulation until we have consolidation into a few .compact systems so that rates may be made intelligently.” Cutnmins said. “Under the present situation the Interstate Commerce Commission in its efforts to determine what is and fair and just rate for everybody, simply has to go groping blindly and decide on some rate or other. It is impossible to fix a rate upon the basis of knowledge that it would be fair to all alike. If the roads were consolidated into a small number of systems It would be possible in my opinion to make rates that would result Id virtually equivalent returns to all railroads alike. Now the rate that would bring one road & rpturn of 20 per cent might force another road to ask for a receiver.”

More of the "electric toasters” are being installed in Meridian street by the board of public safety, the "toasters” being iron grills containing electric lights and marking the center of the street intersections to act ns "silent policemen.” The new installation* have just been made at Meridian and St. Joseph streets and at Meridian and Twenty-Second streets.
