Philadelphia business circles w e r e
surprised on Monday of last week by the
announcement of the consolidation of

are at present , extensions being made
as the business warrants. The Baldwin
Locomotive Works were founded by
Mathias W. Baldwin in 1831. and they
now cover 14 acres of ground and there
are about 5,000 men employed. The
capital of the firm , the enterprise never
having been incorporated , is placed at
$5,000,000. The Westinghouse company
has a capital of $ tooooooo. Mr. George
Westinghouse said it was not in any
sense a consolidation , but a union of interests -
erests for the more economical and improved -
proved manufacture of electric locomotives -
tives , the demand for which was felt
more and more every day. Secretary
Terry , of the Westinghouse company ,
stated that there was a constant inquiry
for electric locomotives , and although it
could not be said that there was a market -
ket now , the market would be found as
soon as the engines were ready. The
recent successful operation of electric locomotives -
comotives had convinced the members
of both companies that a union of interests -
ests for working purposes would be advantageous -
vantageous and the contracts had just
been signed.-Electrical Review.
