Will Withdraw From Port,
Leaving Field to A., B.
& A. Steamers.
On May 15 the Mallory Steamship
Line will dlecontlnue Its freight and
passenger service to Brunswick.
From Information obtainable, thla de
cision has apparently come about In a
peculiar way. Recently the Macon and
Brunswick Steamship Company peti
tioned the railroad commission to com.
pel the Mallory line to deliver freight
direct to It.
To carry out this plan. It seems the
Mallory line would be forced to main-
tain a lighterage system. Rather than
go to this expense, It Is believed the
Mallory line ha* determined to with
draw from Brunswick as a port of en
try.
Brunswick will continue to have
ocean service, however, In the "Bee
Line,” Inaugurated by the Atlanta, Bir
mingham and Atlantic.
