Galveston with "A view to buvina

report is consistent with the recent
policy of the Central management,
which has been to secure independent
outlets. The company is arranging for
one or more outlets on the north, and
with her own water terminus at Calves
ton she would be in excellent position
to stand competition, either offensive or
defensive. Waco is considerably inter
ested in the Central road, and it would
be something which could result in no

clude to place itself on AN equal foot
