ECTOR CALLED DRILL
BUT NO ONE RESPONDED.
trleaton, S. C.. July 27.—A call to
Ire drill by J. W. Oast, United
« supervising lnepeotor of vessels,
yesterday on board the ferry boat
ence, resulted In no response, as
row tvns not In training. A\ a re.
here is trouble for the office*, In
e of the Lawrence, which carries
year thousands of passengers
s the Cooper river to the T sea*
resnrta. The men did not know
ispector, and paid no attention to
ill for tire drill which was sent In
r. Oast.
John Skelton Williams An
nounces Progress
' in Work.
UnlesR something not down on the
program happens. John Sketton Wil
liams will have his new Georgia and
Florida railroad between Augusta and
Madison, Fla., in operation inalde of
a -ear. ,
By that time the connecting links
which will make the series of small'
roads secured by the Virginia finan-
cier into a trunk line will be built. ,Mr.
Williams states that the money nec
essary to build these'connecting lines
and to put the others in llrst-clasa
shape has been secured. This meahs
the expenditure of 15,000,000. In or
der to connect the short lines already
secured, it will be necessary to con
struct 104 miles of road.
The roads already secured by Mr.
Williams, as told in The Georgian some
months ago, and which will be con
nected, are the Augusta and Florida,
30 miles; the Millen and Southwestern,
53 miles; the Atlantic and Gulf Short
Line. 20 miles; the Hazelhurst division
of the Douglas and Valdosta, 80 miles;
the Douglas, Augusta and Gulf, 57
miles; the Nashville and Sparks, 12
miles, and the Valdosta Southern, 28
miles. '
The total mileage of these roads is
230 miles, and with that which will be
built, the road will be between 330 and
350 miles long. Madison, Fla., the ter
minal of the road, is only 40 miles from
the gulf and it is proposed to build a
line to a suitable port. It is also pos
sible that an extension will be built to
Savannah and another from Augusta
to Columbia, S. C., a distance of 70
miles. At this point a connection would
be made with the Seaboard Air Line.
This new road will run through a
section of Georgia that Is badly In
need of north and south trunk line
facilities, and it will probably develop
Into a large and profitable system.
