DISCUSSED BT AECHITECT AXD
,1 AT.TtTTRMTTT LAST HIOHT, '
Mr. Gatlin of the Southerm pare for
.the Pirpose of Discussing Plans
' Tor ifew -Station Former " Plana
Not Satisfactory la That Proposed
Station It Inadequate For Concord.
. Ko Action Taken. .."; f
Mr. T. H. Qattin, ehief architect of
the Southern, Railway, was here last
night and conferred with the Mayor
and Board of Aldermen in regard to
the proposed .passenger station for
Cojieord.. -:; ? .
Abont a year ago the railroad made
plans for a depot for this eity.When
the plans were seen by the eitisens
here there were a number of objec
tions made to them. The ehief com
' plaint was as to the size. Objections
were also made as to material used,
in the construction of the depot. A
request was also made for a tided and
a cement walk leading out to Corbin
street. -
Mr. Getliu came here last night
for the purpose of explaining the
plans and reaching an agreement
with the city fathers. . He explained
that the kind of brick that the plans
called for were tire kind the road was
using in all of its new buildings and
that with stone trimmings they made
a most attractive appearance. - Mr.
Gatlin stated that as to the flooring
the road could not afford to put in a
different floor other than the kind the
plans specified on a building of this
kind. He also stated that the road
could not build a shed in front of the
station and- along the track, stating
that the shed would -cost a consider
able amount and the revenue from
the passenger service here would not
justify the increased expenditure.
the old station will be., removed
next to the freight station and will
. ..: - - bo used as freight offices. The pres-
- ent offices will be converted into ad-
ditional store space,
- - No definite agreement was reached
between Mr. Gatlin and the board.
. that the new station could be com'
pleted within four months provided
, the work was started at an early
-. date. . ' -- :
It is not known just what steps the
board will take. . There is no doubt
about the fact that the proposed sta
tion, according to the. plans, is inad
equate for Concord. .But the question
is can the road be required to build
one that is. ' ' . .. 1
m The board has not yet taken action
on the matter and it is not likely that
it will until it is thoroughly investi
gated. Mayor Wagoner is taking a
deep interest in the affair and is mak
ing an effort to get the very best
station he can for the city. Theboard
will likely take the matter up at its
next meeting, when it will be gone
over in detail. :, - -

Meadows came forth from the game
with High Point yesterday with an
othershut out to his credit, making
five out of the seven games he has
twirled for Concord. The game only
went seven innings. High Point call
ed it then by atrreement in order to
catch a train. They took their turn
at the bat in the eighth, but this is
counted out and the game goes back
to seventh even iunings.
Meadoms' stellar work on the slab
was the feature. Coupled with this
was the stick work of Winston and
Pearson. Winston cracked out a hom
er and two singles out of four times
up and Pearson garnered a homer and
double, both timely. Toting s hit
ting was also a feature hut his work
at first was .miserable. "Rube" How
ard, from Mebane. an ex-leaguer, was
on the mound for High Point and
served just about what the Cincos de
sired, judging from the vicious man
ner in which they connected. Mead
ows whiffed fifteen and allowed four
hits.
First Inning. Loman went, Pear

Winston took care of Sensenback and

between first and second and John

Second Inning. Yount singled.
Welsch sacrificed. Jones out, to Pat

Winston singled. Patterson popped
to first. Pearson hit a homer over

also. Moose and Dusenl cry failed to

things by picking up a handful of

side, taking Honeycutt. Howard and
