Traffic arrange ments between the St. Louis & San Francisco railroad on the one site and the Central of Georgia railway tad the Southern Railway on the other are on foot. The Frisco .system makes connec tion with , the Georgia Central at Bir mingham, Ala., and - can, th-rough such an arrangement, secure an entrance into Savannah, while' tha Frisco connects at Memphis withhe Southern Railway, which vronjd .enable it to reach other Atlantic ports. It has generally been understood; that the interests connected with the Southern Railway dictated 'the policy of the Georgia Central. The southern state laws preclude the com bination of tlio two properties, the Southern Railway nt being permitted to own a" parallel -line. The control of the Georgia Central Tests -with voting trustees representing the bond-htdders. The LouiTCille & rsashville svstem is now under the same control as the South ern Railway, and it was pointed out to day that in view of the acquirement by tne t nsco roaa or tne imcago & -Eastern property. a deal now admitted but not vet officially nnounced, there might be u iirrrner exiensHJu oi mis aeai Dy a connection or . tne cnicago & Eastern i Illinois with ithe Louisville system bv ! a utilisation of the Evaasville & Terre Haute road, m which the Chieazo & Eastern Illmois interests have also been interested.
