GENERAL RAILWAY NEWS.
Matters of Money and Management
About Various Lines.

Mr.. r. Southwick, agent of the Mallory
Steamship line at Fernandina, is out in
circular in which he says the Mallory
Steamship line will not be Withdrawn
from the Florida trade, Notwithstanding
all reports to the contrary.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Ma
coochee OF the Ocean Steamship line was
greatly delayed Dy the fog on Tuesday
and did not arrive in Savannah until
Tuesday afternoon, all Jacksonville and
/ Florida freight arrived in Jacksonville
Wednesday morning at 8 O'Clock, twenty
four hours In advance OF the Clyde steam
ship Cherokee. the pioneer ship Of the
new New York and Florida Steamship
line via Charleston. This is no new
thing with the Ocean Steamship Com
pany. 1t is by ali odds the quickest and
the most reliable service between New
Ork and Florida. The Florida readers
OF the MORNING NEWS will do well to
make their shipments via Savannah and
the Ocean Steamship Company.
Some two years ago the construction of
tue Blue Spring, Orange City Fla. and
Atlantic railroad was begun, aud the en-
tire line ia graded and five miles of it iion-
ed Everything progressed favorably up TO
about six months ago, when the company
became financially embarrassed and
ceased work. 1t is now stated that III
necessary arrangements Tor the compile
ton OF the same have teen pert ctrd, the
money is in hand and the work OF COM
pleiion to proceed at once. The road is
twenty eight miles long. commencing at
Blue Spring landing, on the st. Johns
river, and terminating at New Smyrna,
on the Atlantic ocean. 1t runs through a
fine country and Will be another connect
ing link with the jacksonville, Tampa
and Key West railroad.
The CentraPs engineers are surveying
a line from Blakely, Ga, to Columbia,
Ala, for the purpose OF ascertaining the
probable cost or extending the line of the
Blskely extension to that point. After
this is ascertained it is probable that the
railroad authorities will submit a propo-
sition to the people Of Columbia debating
the terms upon which they will agree to
extend the line, but IL is not probable and
hardly possible that they will consent to
stop the line at that point. but will carry
1T on to Pollard, Ala, to connect with the
Mobile and Girard road. The appearance
of the surveying corps IN Blakely has
created considerable discussion as to the
intentions of the railroad authorities, and
the unanimous opinion of the railroad
employees, as we'll as the citizens of our
town, is that if the road ever crosses the
river it will go to Pollard. II this is done
the Albany and Blakely extension will
become one of the main lines OF the
Southwestern railroad.

Miss Castleton IL fortunate in the i'm
portant matter OF supporting company.

A Good Thing Come to Stay.

America is great country for inven-
tions and discoveries. Thousands upon
thousands of new things come to light
every year; thousands upon thousands OF
them disappear to be seen and heard OF no
more. Some of the new discoveries come
to stay because they are genuine and meet
a long-felt want. Such a thing is ALI
cocks Porous Plaster, which after a fair
trial of twenty-five years Is conceded to
both the medical fraternity and the gem
eral public. In quarter of a century it
has never failed IN doing all that was
claimed for it. Allcock's Porous Plasters
have reached the place they now occupy
because they have been proved to be good,
safe, sure and speedy in doing their work
ASK your druggist for Allcock's, and be
sure to accept no other.

Here lies the Laird of Elsie shields,
What's left LOchmaben's bonnie fields,
And a. her bonnie lochs and cells.
And gam to dwell among the deils,
How he tends and how he fares,
There's few kens and as few cares."

THE PAPERS HELD BACK
CAPT. LAIRD AND THE INSPEC-
TORSHIP OF HULLS.

The Advisory Board Agrees Upon His
appointment, but n Florida Man Said
to be in the Way of His Being Commits
stoned - Inspector Curran Calls
Another Meeting of the Board.
Supervising Inspector Curran has writ
ten to Judge speer and Collector Wheaton
calling a meeting Of the Advisory Board
Tor MOVIES. Capt. Wheaton said yester-
day that al the first meeting Of the board,
held Now g.. all three members voted for
Capt. Thomas Laird for Inspector. No
one was sure how Mr.. Curran would
vote before the meeting. After the board
made the selection MIR. Curran requested
Capt. Wheaton and Judge Speer not to
make their action public until he COM
municated with the department.
The reason Capt. Laird has never re-
celved his papers from the department is
said to be because Assistant Secretary
Fairchild thinks the Florida applicant
ought to have the place.
THE MOST COMPETENT MAN.
The law says that the applicants must
be examined by the Advisory Board, and
1t is presumed that the board will vote for
tho most competent man. Mr.. CuTran
was asked several weeks ago by News
reporter il he had not been instructed by
the department to vote for the Florida ap-
plicant.
"Only by inference" was his reply. He
was informed, he said, that report was
current that he had been directly ill.,
structed by Mr.. Fairchild, or some other
OF the Treasury officials, to support the
candidate from Florida, but he denied
that there had been any direct instruc-
tions.
1t is conceded that the delay in the ap-
pointment OF an inspector is due to the
pressure brought to bear on the depart
ment by FlOrida's representatives. In Con-
gress.
MR.. CURRAN NOT CONFIRMED.
MIR. CurrGn's appointment has not been
confirmed by the Senate, and it is whis-
pered That Florida's support may not be
at his command if Georgian is made In
spector. EZ-C0llector johnson, who was
at the examination OF the applicants,
stated afterwards that the Florida appli-
cant did not pass anything like so favora-
Bile an examination as Capt. Laird. Not
withstanding that fact, and also
the fact that the Advisory Board
was unanimous for Capt. Laird, his pa
pers are being held back. Meanwhile it
is said that the business Of the Inspectors
office IS being neglected.
A custom house official stated a few
days ago that he had Deen informed that
there are seven or eight vessels in this
district now that ought to be inspected.
