This move had been, planned for some, time but had been kept well under cover lest by injunc tion ter< ai might be prevented in making this ixtension. All night long the stalwart arms’ wielded pick and shovel while busy trackmen placed treat e tioi - ' here laid ties and rails. The zoey dawn found the men still busy and the tracts well laid acioss S-c< nd Aver ue just at the abuttmeut of the Land Co., bridge. The danger link has been safely forged and from now on for the next few weeks th° road will be engaged in extending this section of us yard toward the city hall, its destination being the cal yards of the R- rne Ice Co.

P«UeU cure constipation THE ROME HUSTLER-COMMERCIAL ROMS PLUCK. |Ur. John G. Ramey's Rock Ground Meal - GROWING MORE POPULAR. New Railroad Move to Secure Better Oullot. The old Rome City Mills, one of the most famous corn mills in the country, under the enter prising management of Mr. John G. Ramey, has taken on a new lease of life, or rather has renew ed the days of theii young grind, and by the grade and quantity of their output, added new terri tory to their fame. List month Mr. Ramey was forced to run the mills day and night and then the entire output of 1200 bushels daily, was not sufficient to supply the demand, or fill the orders. To meet the emergency new j machinery is to be added at an early date. But the mills have always been handicapped by being located about three blocks from a railroad yard. To remedy this and remove the necessity for heavy daily transfer and truckage fees, Mr. Ramey succeeded, along with Manager Hancock, of the Rome Ice Co., whose plant is just a block further up the Oostanaula river, in interesting the C. R. & ,8., people in extending the yard limits of their road. The rights of way were final ly secured, and last night the C. R. & S., construction gang crossed Second avenue and are now working towards the Rome Citv Mills plant. The output of these mills readily command from 11 to> 2 cents per bushel premium on the common corn meal. The Rome City Mills product is the very finest grade of rock ground In dian meal. Mr. Ramey is an ex pert in grain and will buy none but the very best corn for hi s I mills. i His market extends from Rome to the coast cities and is only limited in output by the capacity of his mills. ; Upon the completion of the railway tracks to the mills new machinery will be added and the output largelv increased. The daily pay roll of eleven is one of the many small factors that I keeps the city of modern Rome ' steadily growing. HALF A BILLION New York, April 7. —The New York Life Insurance Company offers to loan the government $10,000,000 in case of war with Spain. Other companies will follow suit, and it is predicted that a j loan of at least $200,000,000 can be had from the insurance com panies of the country alone. I It is estimated that a popular loan would bring $300,000,000 more, thus creating an emergen cy war fund of half a billion dol- 'lars.
