This ?Wr was hoard in Brunswick sev eral ago, but little attention was paid to it. The fact that it has ai o been heard in other cities . is demonstrated by the following arti •ie from the Tampa Times: “Rumors have been current foi several days tfiat the Atlantic Coast Line railway lia-j been purchased by •no great Pennsylvania system, and the Times has received dozens of in quires in this connection. “A Tiiut s maa, therefore, this morning called on Judge W.

From Judgo Cur ler's itatemint, however, it appears improba' lc tin t such a merger has occurred or will occur. “In this connection the Times is .•lad to note the great improvements in iboth pa eengt if and freight de partments oj* the Coast Line during the past few weeks. The daily ar rival of ik w® roll tug stock which is months overdue cn account of the in ability of the fflflffifactur< r. to serve tho Coast Line and otlie roads, Is improving the set •vice to such an ex t nt that the promises of tire official to improve ar rapdly as posable In being made good in a mo.t satisfac tory manner.” PRPQinPMT MS i siLU:ui.ni Kind LET DOWN EASY Senator Foreaker Accepted a Com promise on His Famous Browns ville Resolution.
