The report THAT tbs charter of the st. Louis.
indianapolis g. Eastern Railroad Company 1.-THE
On~tgrOwth of the Indianapolis s. Sullivan coal
road company xpired by limitation on the Oath
of June, 1888, Is without foundation. The COM
pany was organized under the general State law
aud its charter does not expire for some three
years, and long before that time their trains will
be running, striking the best coal fields in the
state. But few, if any, persons outside the direc-
tory are aware how far this enterprise is adj
yanced. From n director who knows he facts
IN the case, and whose authority cannot be ques-
toned. is learned that the line has been located.
and the rignt-of-way from Indianapolis to Sullf-
van. with the exception of some seventeen miles,
has been secured. and a large tract of coal
land, as we'll. On July IL advertisements for
contractors to do the work will be published.
Several prominent English and American capt.
talists are behind the enterprise, and made the
fOElowing proposition, which has been accepted.
They, the capitalists, are to deliver at Indianap-
ellis, sixty ounds-to-the-Yard steel rails, fish
bars and spikes needed for the track the entire
distance, construct the bridges, and are also to
furnish additional $4,000 cash per mile as the
road Is constructed, and are to take the first
mortgage bonds of the company at eighty1ave
cents Oh the dollar as payment This, 1t will be
seen. Will give the company $1,000 per mile to do
the grading, graveling, furnish cr0ss-ties and
lay the track. In addition to this. several town
ships on the route nave promised liberal subsi-
dies. The director who gives the above inforuia-
tion says there is moi the least doubt but that the
work will be commenced in earnest in the latter
part OF next month or early In August.
