Believes Seaboard
Has Bought
G. F. & A.
-1
From Dawson News.
Since the announcement some
two weeks that the Georgia,
Florida and Alabatnu railroad had
been sold to a New York corpora-
Hen many things have happened
to make the general public balleve
ihat the New York inteaesta are
but a subaiduary of the Seaboard
Kir Line Railway Company.
The Richland Journal reports
'bat soon after the news was her,
aided that G. F. & A. hud beet.
old orders were issued from Sea
joard headquarters to send nil en
rmit-d cars on the Richland yard
over tne G. F. &A, to Flu , and
since.that time the yards have
been literally congested with Flor
ida bound cars.
On Monday morning of last
week there were one hundred and
seventy cars leaving Richland for
Fla points; on the following morn
ing one hundred, and almost dai
ly since that time the G. F. & A.
has run from two to four freight
trains out of Richland to carry
heavy Eia trains to their towns.
Judging from this it is now geo
erally presumed that the Seaboard
is owner of the G. F. & A., eveu
though the latter will probably
run under its cwn name for inontls
or coutinously aa a separate branch
of the S aboard.
