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. r — o Air and Mrs A. L.
