Railway Sews. The Charlotte Observer of today says: "Conjecture is rampant in sea board Air Line circles. Tne talk in connection with the reported resig nation ot superintendent Monoure, of the Carolina Central, as It drifts this way, is to this effect: If Mr Moncure resigns, the road will be made into two divisions, the Carolina Central and Raleigh & Augusta. Over the former Mr John H Winder, superin tendent of the Georgia, Carolina s Northern, will have control; over the latter, Capt. T W Wisnant. The cause of Mr. Myers resignation as general superintendent wa"s due, it is stated, to the management wanting to cut off sixty hands in the shops in Portsmouth. Mr. Myers said he could not run the road on less force, and that led to hid resignation." Thb Visitor learns with great pleasure that Mr Monoure has not resigned. JEE ROYAL AECAXUM.

At 3 o'clock tV lorning people who live near trji Ifllsboro street bridge heard a lo rvTf Z? til to the collision of coming in from Ha ilet. loaded mains iy with cotton. 'b, jdeynpar the fair grounds. The br was jiot dlscov Nlonf The rear .fiNpjortion of the ered until the c cars ran' on the train, the grade !elnjNraite heavy. Six cars were deralTSdin the deep cut. A box car loaded with cotton was torn all to pieces, as was also a flat loaded with paving stone, while one side of another box car was near. lytorn off. At an early hour the wrecking force got at work. Hun dreds of people gathered to see the novel sight. The bridge was lined with people, while along the side of the road were many others, some oc cupying dangerous positions. Work men swarmed over the wrecked cars, fastening the heavy chains to them. Then the wrecking cars hooked On their heavy tackle and a shifting en gine f nrnished the power. Mr Whiss nant was in charge of operations, asi sisted by Mr Maglenn. Despite the hard work it was noon before tne track was clear. One man came near losing his bead, a heavy pulley not missing it more than a foot. No one was hurt in the wreck. The passen ger train northbound left the John eon street station. The northbound vestibule was late. The one south bound passed before the wreck oc curred. Street Railway News. Yesterday the outlook for the spee dy resequipmenc of the street rail way was fine. Today there are signs of a long delay. This morning the bid of Dr. McAden and associates was raised. The advanced bid was made by an attorney, bat it appears to be quite well understood that It is for the Raleigh gas company. Now this will cause a delay of eight weeks, as the court will have to order another sale, and notice has to be published for six weeks. Then immediately after the next sale is made the bid may be again raised and another delay result. Raleigh has been without a road long enough Nothing tended more than the street railway to develop the suburbs. Not to have it in operation is really a hardship on many people. The Vis ITOR hears some plain talk about the matter and invites communications on the subject. Of course the board of aldermen has the key to the sitna' tion. It can turn that key on the franchise on May 19. It can grant a new franchise to a new company Raleigh wants and needs a street railway, and that at once. It is argued that a brewery here would make a good market for hops and thus develop a new industry. The department of agriculture last year reported, upon the authority of an expert, that hops could be readily and profitably grown in this section. It asserted that the shops of the Richmond & Danville railway are to be moved from Manchester, Va., to Charlotte, the change to begin Aug. 1. The Charlotte News makes this announcement. 01 People Who Came and Vent Tcday. Miss Maud Fleming! condition con tinues to improve.

The Record says: "The more substantial viands which were served -in the din ing room were followed by ice cream In many fancy and striklog shapes furnished by Dughi, the caterer, of Raleigh." Today's Charlotte Observer says that an interesting face in connection with the recent appointment to the senators hip vacated by the death of Vance, and one which up to this time has not gotten into any of the pa pers, is that if Jarvis had declined the appointment Gov. Carr would have tendered it to A Leazer, of Iredell, at present superintendent of the peni tentiary. The Vance memorial association, Gov Carr and Messrs R H Battle, O G Latta. J N Holding.
