AtlMta m m the "Dixie Hommer-I(a Tims Beaten bjt : : the "xytnin Flyer" Over, the Plant - MA Gout line Bjwonu A few days agor says the News 'and Courier, the Chicago Herald ran a train .down to Atlanta for the purpose of dis tributing a special edition which the pa per got oat. The time made by the train -was very fast, and with Us usual mod esty A Ianta said that it was the fastest time tvernade in the South. In fact an Atlanta enthusiast sent the following dispatch to the Ass:iated Press, and it was printed in most of the Southern papers: , ,. "The Dixie hummer, which left Chi cago at 8 o'clock this .morning, made the fastest long distance rnn in Southern railroad history, - covering . the 788 miles in 18 hours, 15 minutes, ac tual running. - .or 16 hours. 67 minutes, - elapsed time ' The average running - time was 45 miles an hour. Many., a piece of ' track , was covered at the rate of 70 miles J an- hour. The train was scheduled to reach Atlanta at 5 80 p. m . but it lost no time going ever tne "mountains between Evansville and Chattanooga." The train came , over the Chicago and Eastern Illinois, the Evar s vMIe and Terre Haute, the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis and; the Western and Atlantic" ' 7 777 7 . Of cbursevtbis is an excellent..-showing, hat as far as its being the, fastest time ever made in the Souih, -that's all poppycock." Everybody; knows that the fastest long distance -run ever-made in the South, if not the fastest made in the world, was that made by the" Pyth ian flyer over the Plant and Atlantic Coast Line systems on. (he 89ta of Au gust last. The -Pythian twta ran 781 miles in fifteen hours and forty-nine minutes, including stops, or excluding stops in fourteen boars and thirty-four minutes,- Its actual running speed for the entire distance was 53 8 miles per hour. In other words, it ran.f jrty-eight miles farther toan the "Dixie Hummer, and covered the distance in over an hour and a halt less time. The performance of the train attracted the attention of the whole country, and the railroads and newspaper rmen from Boston to New Orleans unantmously.acknowledged that it had beaten the world's record for long-distance raciBg. . . No one .questions the fact that the "Dixie Hammer" made a solenoid run. Considering the country through which it bad to go it was a truly remarkable performance, but . it is mere bosh to claim that it broke the record. The At lantic Coast Line and Pant system men naturally feel that an injustice has been done them by the dispatch. They put -themselves to great trouble and expense in making their great run. and they don't want to see themselves unjustly robbed of their laurels. tNIIEO CHARITIES. -4 s - A Bcnerolant 7 Feopl to Aid the BntTartne '.
