DAILY ENQUIRER -SUN: COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER \>4 1 m. IS THK RAILWAY WORLD. .■Sojuo Sj*€*rnlntlons About UaUrcuul SpiMMilutorH. Proji-rlcd KxtcusloH In tin* South. Kir. The August* Chronicle does not like the man ner in which raliroad magnates manipulate /things and it, ts right. The following is charac- te’istic of that level-headed journal: “As the railways of this country are gradually becoming the sport of 3toek speculators and manipulators, who hold the strings that pvill the traps, it would seem good advice for investors to s 11 out and put their money in something else. It looks shameful for capitalists, bent upon gain solely, to club together and raid solvent roads only to use them for gambling purposes. As thcro is no security against such men, and as they encourage the worst form of demoralization, shaking public confidence in every legitimate railway corporation, we are impressed with the belief that tjie best thing for any honest holder of such securities is to sell them and seek some other use for the money.” The Chrouicle advises its readers to keep out of speculations that they know nothing about, but gives this as the latest statement in regard to the Central railroad: “We understand,from a well informed friend, that the Richmond and Danville company is not tr; log to gobble up the Central railway, but that the real power behind the throne is the Kansas City aud Fort Scott railway, aided and comforted, very likely, by the Standard Oil Company. The presumed object of the great Northwestern rail way is to have an all-rail connection to Birming ham and Savannah under its own control. The gentleman who furnishes this information be lieves that Savannah would be benefited b ' the change, and that Central stock would advance to $150 a share under the new management.” Projected Extensions in the South. The New York World lias the following which will be read with interest: The increased activity in southern railroad building and the prominence that is being given to railroad connections in that section of the •country is very noticeable and is attracting con siderable attention in transportation circles. Sev eral of our uorthern lines, it is reported, have of late been looking south for future connections which will enable them to operate in what is a ricii agricultural and mining district. Among the roads that are being rapidly pushed to com pletion, one that has been frequently mentioned ofiate is the Covington and Macon, in Georgia, .which, when entirely finished, will be 300 miles long and will be an exceedingly impor tant link for an air line to Florida, so popular now as a winter resort. Meeting a prom inent Georgian recently, who is closely identified with railway interests in his state, a World re porter spoke with him concerning this particular road aud the section of country through which it ran. He said: “Railroad matters generally in my state are in a good conditon, and several new roads have not only been projected, but are actually being built and will be completed in a short time. This Covington and Macon I regard as a valuable piece of property because it traverses one of the most fertile portions of Geor gia and will open for agricultural aud manu facturing purposes a fine piece of country. I have personally been all through the locality in which it is located and know whereof I speak. It has the money necessary to finish it and the people are anxious for it. Why, I do not suppose any road was ever constructed in which the local reople along its line had a larger interest. These staid Georgia farmers and business men have contributed to it -and are pecuniary interested in it. The people there have changed very much during the past few years in their opinions concerning immigra tion and will now welcome all who come in good faith to settle. There is a vastly diflierent senti ment on this subject than there was even two . years ago, and all that is now needed are good transportation facilities. The late H. B. Claffin 5 our dry goods merchant prince, was interested in this matter and we had frequent talks on the st.bject. He intended to locate a large factory for the manufacture of cotton goods on the line of this road, and had lie lived it would have been in successful opera tion by this time, The point he had practically selected was at the junction of the South Yellow aud Alcovy rivers, which nnite and form the Ocmulgeo. At this poinf there is 30,000-horse power at low water, and the road, I am told are so anxious to have a factory staffed there that they will give to the first man locating there free water-power lor ten years, and land for life The road will be finished from Athens to Macon by the 1st of Marcu. Work is now goingon at the rate of a mile and a half a day, and the line is being pushed south from Macon to Florida.” “But. now can it ever form part of a trunk line ?” “At Athens it can connect with the Richmond and Danville system, and there are other plans on foot in which .1 believe the Pennsylvania and the Fast Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia roads are interested, which would give other direct I connections with the north. The complete de velopment of this section of the country by rail- 1 rouus is only a question of time. It is ‘the heart ol the cotton bell, is rich in every way and needs but the impetus given by railways to bring it prominently to the front. Northern capitalists •and run road men have turned their eyes in our ■direction and the whole south is being rapidly opened up aud settled.” “How will this proposed consolidation of the Rienmond ami Danville and the Richmond Ter minal companies affect you?” “Favorably, I should' say. It will make a strong oombiuation and aid the country by mak ing a uniform strong concern. I am glad to see your powerful city press giving prominence to railroad inatters south. • It will do good, and I think will be of mutual benefit, for that country is bound to tike in such matters the position the west has filled tor so many years.” Another step in the Richmond Terminal matter was taken yesterday afternoon. The old board of directors met and resigned seriatim, new direc tors being elected as each one of the old ones went out. The new directors are Alfred .Sully, Emanuel Lehman, Isaac L. Rice. Thomas M. Logan, George F. .Stone and ,). A. Rutherford. Tne new board at once organized by electing Alfred Sully president and P. M. Logan vice president. Mr. Edward Lauterbuch, to whose in fluence and hard labor this settlement is due,was elected general counsel, and Col. VV. W. Gordon, of Virginia, counsel for the southern states. The purchase of the 25,000 shares of the Richmond and Danville road for $5,000,000 cash and $1,500,000 in additional stock of the Richmond Terminal Company, proposed to be issued, was reporter!, and the pur chase approved, so that the Terminal Company now owns these 25,000" shares, while individual members of the new board and their friends own 30,000 shares more. A lull discussion of the sit uation was had with the view of a complete uni fication of the two roads into one harmonious ■system. It was proposed to issue a notice to the stockholders asking for subscriptions to the $5,(100,000 cash required to be paid for the 25,000 snares of the Richmond and Danville stock, each stockholder to be entitled to subscribe an amount equal to one-third of his holdings, for which lie •will receive one-half of his present holdings in common and preferred stock at par of the pro posed increased capital stock of the company.

DYSPEPSIA Up to a few weeks ago 1 considered rav- : sell'the champion Dyspeptic of America. During the years that I have been afflicted T have tried almost everything claimed to be a spocitic for Dyspepsia in the hope of finding something that would afford per manent relief. I had about made up my mind to abandon all medicines when I no ticed an endorsement of Simmons Liver Keoulator by a prominent Georgian, a jurist whom I knew, and concluded to try Us effects in my case. I have used but. two bottles, and am satisfied that, I have struck the right thing at last. I 'felt its beneficial effects almost immediately. Unlike all other preparations of a similar kind, no special instructions are required as to what one shall or shall not eat. This fact alone ought to commend it to all troubled with Dyspepsia. J. N.
