1.-The e. g. T. ii. and the C q O. Figuring to
Get Control of the Airline.
\ D. J. Mackey, president Of the Evansville &
ITerre Haute and other members of the Mackey
jsyndioate have returned from Boston, Mass,
where they spent several days in conference
with the capitalists who own and operate the
Louisville, Evansville g. st. Louis Airline, AS
stated in the Journal last week. the Mackey
Syndicate have made two propositions, one to
purchase, the other to lease the road, and the L.,
E. & St. L. Airline people now have these propo-
sitions under consideration.
Fhe New Albany Ledger of Thursday says:
President Mackey, of the Evansville & Terre
,Haute railroad, was in the city yesterday He
came here to examine the property of the Air
line railroad, and was accompanied by Mr. Web
ster SNYDER general manager OF the road. He
made a serutinizng examination of the road, its
engines, cars and nj her property, and was equal
" careful in investigating it's business Mr..
Mackey told the reporter that no agreement as
Regards the purchase of the road or its lease bad

would be. Should the Evansville & Terre Haute
Secure control OF the road, he added, it would
be their policy to develop the coal timber, stone
and agricultural resources of the country along
fits line. Special attention would be given its
Aocal business. The coal interest would be given
such prominence as to place the Airline coal in
euccessful competition with PITT sburg and Ken
tueky coal at n ew Albany and JeffersOnville

for the road between this city aud Jefferson

tions that should the E. & T. II. succeed in get
ding possession of the Airline 1t would Op-
crate it in the interest of Evansville as
against New Albany and Louisville were
not regarded by Mr.. Mackey as worthy of atten-
ton. II would be the interest of the company
to make no such determinations, but to do all
that it could to promote the transportation in
forests and genera! business Of both these cities

RING or A CHANGE.

Another Turning Over of the Management
of the Little Bantam" Iumored.
Now the report comes that the stockholders of
the Little Bantam-T., G. & st. L. narrow-gauge
road-are not pleased with the idea of the direc-
tors paying E. B. Phillips, their president, $780,
600 year. and they, as well, agree with the
Journal that the road is top-heavy with general
officers for a narrOw-guage affair. 1t is stated
that this stockholders think that henceforth
less expensive and, perhaps, younger man
would satisfy the requirements of the situation.
II is not learned that any immediate change is
contemplated, but the opinion is ventured, based
anpon extensive inquiries, that, if Mr.. Phillips
Should be rendered an agreeable position else
where and wish to accept, the directors
sor the r., c. & st. L. would not in
sist upon his remaining 1t is also
stated that these always-grumbling stockhold-
ers express the opinion that the president
of a road whose mileage is 500, wholly located
west of the eastern boundary line of Ohio
should live nearer than Massachusetts. In
speaking OF the latter, the Boston Herald says

was elected thar he would spend more or less of

The Movement Favoring the Better Observ-

Gathering Strength.
The question of running Sunday trains is
awakening much interest all over the country,
Inc firm stand of President Young, of the
Louisville, New Albany & Chicago road is ex-
citing much favorable comment, and IS also
strengthening the backbone of other railroad
presidents to dispense, as far as possible,
with the running of trains on the Sabbath, and
