THE WAR IS ENDED

* Au«l the Monon Route neam the Scalps. ,' • i The railroad war came tp an end, by agreement between the parties, last Thursday night at mid-night. The Monon Ponte gains all that it asked sor 1 and loses nothing by the contest. The greatest point gained is the right to use the Union depot, and tracks in Indianapolis, on the same terms as other lines. The war will also be an excellent advertisement for the Air Line, from Chicago to Indianapolis and Cincinnati, making it almost as well known to the traveling public as the oldest established routes. During the continuance of the dollar rate, between the two cities, the Air Line carried 1,994 passengers from Indianapolis to Chicago.- With the shortest line between Chicago, Indianapolis and Cincinnati, depot facilities and car accommodations of the very best, the new line is bound to do a big bnsiness.
