v. Richardson Hospital Authority, 823 F.2d 145, 149 (5th Cir.1987). Del E. Webb Construction held that because the Federal Arbitration Act provides that a district court may order arbitration only in accordance with the terms of the arbitration agreement, the court could not apply Fed.R.Civ.P. 42 to consolidate arbitrations independent of the contract. In so holding, the court rejected the argument that the failure of the Act to discuss explicitly the consolidation of arbitrations mandated application of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Instead, the court gave effect to the Act’s broad language that arbitration should proceed according to the terms of the arbitration agreement. But cf. Milwaukee Typographical Union No. 23 v. Newspapers, Inc., 639 F.2d 386, 390 (7th Cir.) (<HOLDING>), cert. denied, 454 U.S. 838, 102 S.Ct. 144, 70
