PROPOSED RAILROAD CHANGES.
Important Deals Pending in Vanderbilt
System of Reads.
Cleveland, June 29. —The Lcadei
says:
“Important changes are pending in
the Vanderbilt railroad systems in this
region. PreaMeut Ledyard, of the
Michigan Central, is to retire Aug. 1,
and W. H. Newman, president of the
New York Centre! and of the Lake
Shore roads, will be made the presi
dent of the Michigan Central. This
is only the beginning of other changes.
The Michigan Central will lose its
Identity.
“The Intention is to build up a New
York Central system west of Buffa
lo similar to the Pennsylvania system
west of Pittsburg, with the exception
that the president of the New York
Central will have jurisdiction extended
over all of the western systems. The
Big Four and Nickel Plate are like
ly to be a part of the proposed mer
ger.
“The roads that will be included in
this system are the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern, the Michigan Cen
tral, the Pittsburg and Lake Erie, the
Lake Erie. Alliance and Wheeling, the
Erie and Western, the Indiana,
Illinois and lowa, and the Detroit,
Toledo and Milwaukee.”
SOUTHERN WILL LAY TRACK.
Traffic Too Heavy for Two Roads
West of Chattanooga.
Chattanooga, Tenn., June 20. —It is
understood hero that the Southern rail
way is agaici eousidering the building
of the Stevenson extension, a track
from this city to Stevenson, Ala., there
to connect with the present line of the
Memphis and Charleston railway,
■which js controlled by the Southern.
It is stated that the traffic over the
Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis
railway, whose tracks the Memphis
and Charleston uses between this city
and Stevenson, has grown to such an
extent that it Is difficult to operate
the trains of the two roads over the
one track.
The Southern has had several sur
ve-yrs made tor the extension, and it is
understood that the one likely to be
adopted is that which will provide lor
a tunnel through Lookout mountain.
The tracks will practically parallel the
Nashville road’s tracks from here to
Stevenson. If the extension is built
it will oust about $5,000,600.
BUSY TIME FO-R SOLONS.
Approaching Session of the Georgia
Legislature.
Atlanta, June 20. —When Che legisla
tors meet at the capital next 'Wednes
day morning they will find enough
work oe their hands left over from last
session to keep them busy for several
weeks without the introduction of -any
new business. While It is altogether
likely that some attempt -will be made
to reduce the length of the session
from the 50 <isky® specified, yet the
wise ones at the capital opine that
there will be business enough to keep
the legislators toiling all through the
heated days of July and far into the
month of August.
Already the members of the house
and senate are arriving in Atlanta.
Indeed the majority of them are here,
and hotel corridors are beginning to
buzz and hum with political gossip.
