Legislative Committee Investi
gates Chattanooga Terminals.
Southern Anxious to Lease.
Members of the Western and At
lantic Railroad Commission of the*
State Legislature are in Chattanooga
rhutsday investigating the Chatta
nooga terminals and other Tenne--
eeo property of the State road fol
lowing a meeting held in tit.; Sta’e
Capitol Wednesday.
It virtually was decided at Wed
nesday’s meeting: that whatever road
13 ffiven the control of the Western
and Atlantic will be required to dou-
ble track the lin^ from Atlanta tc
Chattanooga, and that in order to se
cure this improvement the lease will
have to run for a longer period tha
Jieretofore.
hether this arrangement
meet with the approval of the Nash
ville, Chattanooga and St. Louis, the
present lessee of the road, and which,
it is understood, desires a renewal, is
not known.
Southern Anxious to Lease.
It is generally understood, however,
taat the Southern is anxious to lease
the line and is willing to double track
the road on condition that the lease
j un for a long term of years.
The commission has not yet been j
able to obtain any definite figures on !
the cost of double tracking the roa*l.
' Chairman < iunbj Jordan pi ■ sent< d a
letter from Vice President H. D
Spencer, of the Southern Railway,
who stated that he cost of the im
provement could hardly be estimated
successfully until a survey and report
bad been made by a competent engi
neer. Mr. Spejicer. however, stated
that the last .double tracking
Southern system did. from Chatta- j
nooga to Meridian, Miss., cost $30,000
a mile, while the cost of double track- j
ing the line from Atlanta to Gaine
ville ran from $30,000 to $80,000 oer j
mile.
Rased on these figures, rbout $r»0,- J
000 a mile is considered a fair ave r - j
age for the cost of double tracking \
the Western and Atlantic*
Possibility of Sale Suoqestion.
Mr. Jordan told the other members :
of the commission that certain que‘ - |
tions should be asked any road that j
applies for a lease of the State line,
which indicate the possibility of the j
commission recommending the sale of j
the property when it makes its report ;
to the Legislature.
The roads, he declared, should be i
asked how much they are willing to !
pay for the right of way, how much 1
they will pay for the road with the ;
properties not necessary for the op- !
oration of the road taken out, and also !
bow much they will be willing to pay !
for the Atlanta terminals on the plaza I
system proposed by the Atlanta |
< Chamber of Commerce. ■»
Only six members attended the
Wednesday meeting and made the j
trip to Chattanooga. They were j

Relatives Fear Jessie McCann, of
Brooklyn, May Be Victim of
Poisoned Needle Band.
NEW YORK, Dec. 11.—A reward of
$1,000 to-day was offered for the safe
return of Miss Jessie McCann, the
missing Brooklyn society girl, or for
the arrest and conviction of persons
responsible for her absence. Upon
the theory that the girl had met with
foul play police boats were kept
cruising along the sea wall in Coney
Island and through Sheepshead Bay.
Thomas G. Gleason, whose daugh
ter is a friend of Miss McCann, made
public the offer of reward and the
wording of the offer indicated that
the theory that the missing girl fell
victim of white slavers perhaps work
ing with the poisoned needle has not
been abandoned.
Harrison McCann, brother of the
missing girl, to-day admitted that his
sister received a letter on the morn
ing of her disappearance and that she
wept over it. but he declared it was,
i from a girl friend.
Her disappearance has recalled the
j mystery of Dorothy Arnold, who van
ished in a similar manner a few years
ago and never was found.
