Speculation.

There is much speculation among railroad

ADOPTED, in which case there will be no reason
Why Commissioner Fink cannot resume the

Mass. the committee appointed by the bond
holders to examine the property, and who have
been engaged in the work several days. came up
from Louisville KY, last evening, and are stop
ping at the Denison House. Their mission here
is to meet Judge Gresham. who is expected to
arrive this morning, and confer with him regard
ing the interests of the road. From the Judge
they hope to secure permission to
issue receivers certificates which will
enable them to improve the property.
While the road bed is in fair condition, the road
is suffering in its business for want of larger
equipment. Receiver Evans says the past sea
son has more than ever demonstrated the fact
that the Airline can be made a
valuable property. It's local business is steadily
increasing, and the country through which the
road runs is developing with rapidity equal to
that of new territory. Then, added to this is a
growing through business, and eastern con-
nections are counting favor with them, it is be-
heved that the Airlneis to become an important
link between the West and the seaboard.

was committed to the village
prison. About 3 o'clock, yester-
day morning, dozen masked
men armed with Winchester re-
peating rifles, surrounded the
