THE CENTRAL RAILROAD.
IT FLOATS TEN MILLIONS DOLLARS
OF BONDS.
Is.lt After the C. It. A C, t-.Ncw Sched
ule of the S, G. & N, A.—Will
Griffin Have a Car Shed.
The Central Railroad has just floated
five million dollars of bonds in New York,
and will probably dispose of as many more.
What is to be done with the money is prob;
ably better known to President Alexander
chan even to the railroad editor of the News
but the rumor arises at the same time that
the Central is after the Chattanoga, Rome
and Columbus road, just put in operation be
tween Carrollton and Chattanooga. It has
previously been intimated in these columns
that this road was first thought to have been
built by the Central, but later was supposed
to be an outlet for the Cincinnati Southern
company. But those were onty surmises
and the road may have been built independ¬
ently and may be run that way.
Be that as it may, the Central and the C.
R. &C. are on very good terms, and this
will doubtless be the favorite outlet of the
former to Chattanooga. An extra traiujwlll
be put on the 8. G, & N. A. today, leaving
Griffin at 5:20 a. m. and returning in the
evening at 0:0, making direct connection at
Caraollton for Chattanooga.
To accommodate this new train, another
long side track has been laid to the north of
the present ones, giving*Griflin more traek
facilities, as it already had more trains, than
any town of its size in the South.
And by the same token the fact is mado to
stand out m6re prominently than before that
Griffin has the poorest—not passenger depot,
but excuse for a passenger depot of any
city of equal importance in the United States
or Europe. The little hamlet of Hapeville
and the caossing at East Point are each hav¬
ing new and suitable buildings eveoted >
May we not hope that the many roads now
centering in Griffin will soon give us a hand¬
some car shed of mordem style and conven¬
iences and one that will be an ornament in¬
stead of a disgrace to the fourth largest city
on the Central’s main line, the second largest
on the the line of the Georgia Midland and
the first and termiminus of the S.G: & N.
A. ?
TUE CONDITION OP THE TBit K.
Roadmaster C. E. Maivin, of the Central
railroad, was in the city last week, having
just completed a thorough inspection of the
road since the recent rains. lie estimates
the damage at $30,000, and also says that it
hrs been the hardest work that he has known
for some time to get every thing in working
oOder in a few days.
The most serious damage done was the
washing away of 1,000 feet of trestle near
Davisboro, together with four miles of track
which was washed completely off the right-
of-way. It look just five days of steady work
with a large force to put this in condition
again, and Thursday, for the first time, No.
I from Savannah came in on time, and after
losing ten minutes at Tonnille waiting on
connections The old reliable Central very
seldom gives its patrons trouble or incon¬
venience on account of weather, hot this
time was forced to succumb iO the floods.
Mr. Marvin also informed a News report- ,
er that the work of laying heavy steel rails
on the Atlanta division of the Central was
progressing rapidly, and the foiee was now
laying track between Griffin aud Barnesville.
When this work is completed the Central
will have one of the finest pieces of track in
the South, and it is expected that a very fast
schedule will be put on between Atlanta and
Macon that will '‘lay over” any schedule
time ever known in these parts.
