Egan has already resigned ae president
of the various corporations In which
he was Interested and as president of
the Kansas City Viaduct and Terminal

John M. Egan has had a long and
enviable railroad career. In 1870 he
was at the head of the old North Mis
souri railway, afterward the BL Louis,
Kansas City and Northern, and now n
part of the Wabash. In 1887 he went
to the Chicago, Bt. Paul and Kansas
City, since absorbed In the Chicago
Great Western railway, as general
manager, later becoming president. Mr.

Georgia road Mr. Egan was a frequent
visitor to Atlanta and had a wide circle
of friends In this city. He maintained
headquarters In Savannah, but spent
most of his time In Macon and Atlanta.
He left his position with the Central
of Georgia in 1904.
In the great railroad strike of 1894
Mr. Egan was chosen by twenty-three
railroads entering Chicago to represent
them In all negotiations until the end
of the trouble and It was largely due
to hie ability that the Anal settlement
was consummated without serious
trouble.
Mr. Egan went to Kansas City In
June, 1*04, to succeed E. H. Rose as
president of the corporation handling
the Armour-Bwirt Interests In that city.
Later he was elected president of the
Kansas City Viaduct and Terminal
Company.

which Mr. Egan will be the head, will
not only build one of the finest terminal
■tatlons In tho country, hut for the
present at least wilt operate the Kan-
Ctty Belt IJne.
