SEABOARD.
Albert Walter, who succeeds J. M.
Barr, as president of the Seaboard Air
Line, together with a number of rail
road officials, spent Tuesday night In
Atlanta, guests at the Piedmont Hotel.
The party arrived here from Norfolk
over the Seaboard In Mr. Walter's pri
vate car, "Cllnchneld.”
Mr. Walter was formerly president
of the Lehigh Valley Railroad and
built It up to its present high stand
ard. His offices ere at 59 Broadwny.
New York, and, besides being presi
dent of the Seaboard and the A. A W.
be Is chairman of the board of direct
ors of the South and Western, now In
the course of, construction from Elk-
horn, Ohio, through the bituminous
coal Acids to the southeastern sea-
board, and also chairman of the board
of the ClInchAeld corporation, owning
200,000 acres of coal lands In the bi
tuminous Aelda and operating
coke ovens. In other words,
Thomas F. Ryan's chief mogul, since
the war started between Ryan and
Morgan, Ryan securing control of the
Seaboard, there has been strife bet
that system and tbs Southern,
tv the battle centers In the soft
coal Acids where a struggle is going
on for supremacy,
Mr. Walter talked quite freely to a
member of The Georgian staff at the
Piedmont last night, of the organiza
tion and plant of the great Industries
of which he Is the ruling spirit. He
said that tht A. 4 W. wns to be con
tinued as a feeder for the Seaboard
from the territory which It penetrates,
and that when It was completed across
the Cumberland mountains the South
and Western would be the coal car
rying highway for the Seaboard sys
tem. In speaking of tho grading work
"During the year that grading work
has been In prugresn all has been ac
cnmpMshed that could be expected,
when we consider the scarcity of labor.
Much of the grade has been completed
In Virginia. WWk on the tunm-l
through Clinch mountain Is moving
along nicely and within three years w*
expect to hava It completed. Construc
tion forces from that end of the lino
are now pushing tho work Into east
Tennessee. •• -«•
have been completed, and wo have an
excellent grade.” .
When asked If the entire rout* had
I limited through ell-I T'enneMiee,
he stated that It had nil practically
been located.
When asked If the completion of this
road would not change the Sow of the
output of the ."lift '"III Ill'll] H fl mil the
Eastern to tne Southern ports, Mr.
Walter said: "To a very great extent
It will bo shipped to the South. W*
will first look after and build up the
Inland markets before turning our at
tention to the export trade. Later,
probably, a great deal will be shipped
:o Southern ports for tbs export
market. What will be the main port
for the export coal shipment bss not
been determined yet, but It will be
■laag-- Uks .BoaUltra coast."
Some Idea of the *magnltude of the
coal transportation Industry ran be
gained when on* considers the fact
that one new type of freight engine on
tho Santa Fe will move the grain from
100,000 acres of Nebraska wheat lands
at it single trip, while train nftcr train
of coal destined for the Important mar
kets leaves the coal Acids dally.
Mr. Walter end party left for Ports
mouth over the Seaboard at I o'clock
Wednesday morning.

Special Cable—Copyright,
London, July ll.—Not only In the
ordinary, but In tho beat circles of
London society, much comment Is
heard concsrnlng the bad taste of
Punch which, In Its current number,
prints what It rails the" Diary of Mrs.
Nicholas Longworth,” In which It holds
up to ridicule the daughter of Presi
dent Roosevelt and Iter husband.
It Is the custom In the humbrous and
sallriral papers In England when wo
men are ridiculed In print to omit
names, but In this Instance Punch has
not even followed this sentiment.
In this Imaginary diary, under the
heading: "The Longworth*’ Independ

"Nicholas began the day by reading
In a firm voice the Declaration of In
dependence. I said nothing, but have
my doubts.
"Nicholas, In an asbestos uniform,

He forecasted a disaster for the cattle
