The Prospect for Fast Line From New
York to Havana.

The Prospect for IA Fast Line From New
York to Havana.
The prospects for the establishment Of
fast mail route between New York and
Havana, Cuba, by way Of Charleston, Sa-
vannah and Key West, and that at an
early day, are very promising. The only
obstruction to its accomplishment is a
piece of uncompIeted railroad in Florida
on which work has not only been com
menced, but which, it is expected, will
be finished by Nov. 1.
The Charleston Nelgs and Courier sug-
gests three routes which could be used
for the purpose. Two Of them are now
being constructed and the third is already
completed. The first route, and the one
which will probably be selected for car
| rying the mall, it says, is by way of Jack.
| sOnYille TO Palatka on the Jack sOnville
! Tampa and Key West railway
There is break in this route
! between Palatka and Sanford.
| The route then continues by the
| South Florida railroad from Sanford Ia
/ Tampa. from which place the mail will
! be carried 10 Havana and Key West by
| steamer. The gap between Palatka and
| sanford has been graded to Sanford. The
| drawhridge has been built across the st.
| Johns river ut Buffalo Bluti near Palatka,
aud the rest Of the work is being pushed
rapidly by the Plant Investment Com
! pauy.
The second route is also under the con-
troll of the Plant system OF roads 1t runs
from Gainesville, Fla, to Leesburg, and
is uncOmp!eted from the latter place TO
Tampa. Route No. is completed. 1t
commences at Callahan, on the Savan-
nah, Florida and Western railway, and
extends to Orlando, which is connected
with Tampa by the South Florida rail
road. The impracticabilitY, however, Of
using this route for the mail lies in the
fact that 10 is controlled by the Florida
Railway and NAVIGATION Company. which
is at variance with the Plant system Of
roads, which includes the Savannah.
Florida and Western.
The advantages 80 be derived from the
establishment of this new fast mail route
to Cuba are certainly very great. At
present all mail is sent 10 Cuba from New
York by steamer, and can only be sent
once o week. Fly this new route it will
be possible to send IT daily, as the distance
from Tampa TO Cuba via Key West is
only 367 miles
