irslng the C. xnd W. C. track from Al
lerutdo to Yfemwftsee nnd reaching Sa
vannah from Yemasse© over th© Plant
System.
Th** eon tract for the construction of the
Southern's aonneotlon was awarded to
<‘ontraertor Wright of Macon, who built
the nnd Alabama extension from
Meldrlm to Hutchinson's Island. Mr.
Wright took his hands from Savannah
far the work, which was begun several
months ago. Th** construction gang* be
gan working from two points nnd I>oth
have practically finished their parts. The
cone*ruction of the line opens up what
is to some extent anew country, the de
velopment of which is looked frr. now
that it h *A a railroad.
At Hardeevllle the Plant System freight
depot has been moved to the east side
of the track, and an addition i* b*-ing
btillt to th© pniigipr depot, which
stm*ls between the tracks of the South
ern ar.d th© Plant flystem. A freight
depot for the Southern is also in course
of construction.
An impression exists that the fforts of
the Southern to get a direct line Into
Savannah will not go beyond th© exten
sion of of new road from Allendale to
Hardeevllle It was thought some lime
ago that thn Southern would build Its
own route into the city, but it has been
said that th© cos* of constructing a
bridge acroe* the Havannah liver would
mean too heavy nn ex pend it tire, ami for
