Local and General Gossip IN Railway
Circles.

The southern teachers who have been in
attendance at the San Francisco conven-
ton of the National Educational associa-
ton, have issued a circular, expressing their
thanks TO the management of the Union
Pacific railway for the courtesy ex-
tended them during their trip The sSavan-
nah party was composed of Prof. w. r.
Thigpen, Mr.. and Mrs. e. A. NJ. Schroeder,
and Mr.. and Mrs William Diers Mr.. r.
w. Hunt, ticket agent of the Central rail
road, arranged the trip for the Savannah
party.
An attempt was made to wreck the south
bound Atlantic Coast liue fast mail due in
Charleston Friday night, sixteen miles
north of there. When the train neared the
station the engine made fearful lunge
which was felt throughout the train.
Brakes were immediately applied and the
train brought to a standstill, when il was
found on examination that some villain or
villains had torn up rail from over a
trestle, aud the engine had fortunately kept
on one rail until it struck the other end of
the break, when IL again mounted the track
and carried over the mail car and one coach
but derailed the passenger coach, throwing
three tiers OF wheels Off the track and very
nearly turning 1t over with eight or ten pas
sengers in It, Nobody was hurt The
escape is almost miraculous one, as the
train is one OF the fastest In the'south
General Manager Belknap, of the Central
railroad, returned yesterday morning from
an. inspection trip over the Central. He
reports every portion Of tue road IN fine
condition. He visited Macon, Atlanta,
Birmingham and Americas, and is especially
pleased with the Birmingham hue. He
spent the greater part of his time
while away at Birmingham, where a
new round house and depot are being built.
Maj. Belknap said last night that contract
for the use of the Kansas City's line to
Bessemer has Just been closed, and the Cen
trail will have access to the Bessemer mines.
Other short lines from Birmingham to
Alabama mines will be secured soon, and
the Central will speedily develope that
portion of the mining section
which lies in its territory.
Since the Columbus and Western has been
completed TO Birmingham there has been
only one violation Of the schedule. Mai.
Belknap also stated that second freight
schedule will shortly be put in operation
that will carry freight direct from New
York to Birmingham in four aud half
days. This is quicker transit than there
has ever been before 20 that portion of the

MR.. sAUssY's INTERVIEW.
A Point He Desires to Correct.

SAVANNAH, GA, Aug. 11.-Editor Morn
inq NeUS: In the report of the interview
with me, as it appears in your paper this
morning. there are some inaccuracies which
desire to correct, and some expressions
which desire to explain.
l. / do not mean to be understood as
charging the board of health of Duval
county, or any member of it, with any dis
courtesy to me as an individual. The fact
that intended to convey was, and is, that
| was not accorded the courtesy of meeting
with the board and being present during
any part of its deliberations. As a member
of similar organization and present in
Jacksonville under authority of the mayor
of Savannah, deemed it my duty to make
this request. and think l should have been
admitted would state that Drs. Daniels
and Mitchell met me very politely and in
nv interview with DR.. Knight, while he
declined to narrate the transactions of the
meeting, he was full and unreserved in his
statement of the situation, and in the inter
views | had with him, both before and after
the meeting, he placed me in possession of
much important Information, though he did
SO unofficially.
9 did not state that the mouth of the
sewer was two feet above high water mark
| should think it was at low water mark.
1t was below or at least on the level with
the surface of the river at the time of my
inspection. stated that the rise and fall of
the tide, according to information there
given me, was from two to two and one
half feet; that the current was too sluggish
to carry off the discharge from the sewer
thoroughly, and that a deposit accumulated
on the adjacent pilings and wharf front
The acting mayor and other city officials
gave me all the information they had access
to and afforded me every facility to inves-
tigate and become acquainted with the
true condition of affairs affecting the health
and sanitation of that city.

Borne to home of glory and light.

The deep, sad throbbing is never still.
There's step you miss, and glad young voice,
And warm sweet kiss SO often given,
And a face with all its light and love-
