Water!--The MuIIet" and
Midland" r. r. Middle

At a special session of what is COM
monty termed the Jarvis Whitford-D irec-
tory of the Newbern r. R., in Raleigh
last week, a resolution was adopted to
call Mr.. VIM. j.. Best to account for his
recent mortgage of the Midland n. Z.
R. R." (all but 4 miles of which Is M
braced in the old Atlantic" or "Mul-
let" r. r. to the Boston Trust Com
pany.
The resolution recites that by terms of
the lease to Best, he was not to suitcase,
mortgage, or otherwise assign the road,
and he uds to go right to work to extend
the track to Salisbury to which point he
must build within 3 years and that up
to date he hasn't shown the requisite
zeal, energy, ct ceterd.
After passing the resolution, the Direc-
tors decided to give Best two weeks to
come up and explain his action. At the
same time they rescinded a former order
appointing Col. Whitford as agent Of the
Board, to receipt for the $40, 600 Of roll

draw $40. 900 from his $45, 600 cash Sc

A GLANCE AT a SITUATION.
In order that the Farmer and Mechdn-
&c readers may have a clear idea of the
situation, we state that in 1881, after W..
J. Best had completed his little scheme
with the Western n. G.. r. r., he ar
ranged with Capt. Appleton Oaksmith
and others to come to Raleigh, and get a
charter for a new scheme-The Midland
n. c.. r. R." so-called-to run from sun
rise to sunset via Newborn, Goldsboro,
Salisbury, and Asheville, embracing the
existing "Newbern'' r. r., and ives
tern N. C. R. r." under leases, or such
other combination as might be possible.
After getting his charter, Best organ.
lied an outside CONSTRUCTION company, >
to build the link between Goldsboro and
Salisbury. This company has thus tar
laid 4 miles of track, and graded IA addi-
tional miles to Smithfield. Best's official
statement of his operations up to the
first of J January is as follows
