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
Thursday investigating the Chatta
nooga terminals and other Tennes
see property of the Stale road, fol
lowing a meeting held in the State
Capitol Wednesday.
It virtually was decided at Wed
nesday's meeting that whatever road
is given the control of the Western
and Atlantic will be required to dou
ble track the lim* from Atlanta to
Chattanooga, and that in order to se
cure this improvement the lease will
have to run for a longer period than
heretofore.
Whether this arrangement will
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,
that the Southern is anxious to lease
tlie line and is willing to double track
the road on condition that the lease
run for a long term of years.
The commission has not yet been
able to obtain any definite figures on
the coat of double tracking the road,
chairman Gunby Jordan presented a
letter from Vice President H. D
Spencer, of the Southern Railway
who stated that the cost of the im
provement could hardly be estimated
successfully until a survey and report
had been made b\ a competent engi
neer. Mr. Spencer, however, stated
that the last double tracking the
Southern system did. from Chatta
nooga to Meridian, Miss., cost $30,000
a mile, while the cost of double track
ing the line from Atlanta to Gaines
ville ran from $-0,000 to $80,000 oc*r
mile.
Based on these figures. : bout $50,-
000 a mile is considered a fair aver
age for the cost of double tracking
the Western and Atlantic.
Possibility of Sale Suaqestion.
Mr. Jordan told the other members
of the commission that certain ques
tions should be asked any road that
applies for a leasp of the State line,
which indicates the possibility of the
commission recommending the sale of
the property when it makes its report
to the Legislature.
The roads, he declared, should be
asked how much they are willing to
pay for the right of way, how much
they will pay for the road with the
properties not nfecessary for the op
eration of the road taken out. and also
how much they will be willing to nay
for the Atlanta terminals on the plaz i
system proposed by the Atlanta
Chamber of Commerce.
Only six members attended the
Wednesday meeting and made the
trip to Chattanooga. They were
chairman Gunby Jordan. Senator M.
C. Tarver. Representatives L. R. Akin.
Alvin D. Greene, E. Cole and Hen

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