Capt. w. A. Jeter, who arrived in this
city on Friday from Hawkinsville, was
in conference with a number Of merchants
ard business men and Central Railroad
officials yesterday, with a view to secur-
ing the construction of a new road from
Hawkinsville to Dublin, a distance of
about 80 miles, to connect with the road
now in construction from Dublin TO Ten
mile. thus making an outlet from Hawk
insVille to the Central, forming a cOnnec-
ton with Savannah, and creating a mar
ket for the cotton and other products of
the Hawkinsville territory. The territory
adjacent to Hawkinsville is now without
any available outlet in this direction.
Capt. Jeter was one Of the movers of the
Hawkinsville Navigation Company which
sought to put in operation through line
of steamers to Savannah last summer,
but owing to certain difficulties hard to
overcome the project was abandoned.
The present scheme, if carried out, it is
claimed, will open a fine country for agri-
cultural purposes. 1t will also place
Hawkinsville in direct rail connection
with savannah. A NEWS reporter called
at the office of President Raoul with
view to asceTtaining how the Central
would entertain the project. Capt. Raoul
