THE X. & A. RAILROAD.
Its Reported Lease by the G. s o.

Yesterday morning Messrs. Warren
& Ouarles received from their New York
correspondent the following telegram
I'VE learn from reliable authority that
the lease of the Richmond & Allegheny
road to the Chesapeake & Ohio has been
signed"
Immediately on seeing that telegram a
representative of the TINES called on two
gentlemen, one connected with the
Chesapeake & Ohio, and the other with the
Richmond j. Allegheny. The first said
that he hid heard the report and believed
il was true, although he could not say SO
Of his own knowledge. The second said
that he had no doubt that the contract
had been signed by the Committee on
ReOrganizstions of the two roads, but
that il was merely tentative as yet. The
terms of the lease provides that the
lessees shall pay 2 per cent. on the first
mortgage bonds of the Richmond i ALA
gEany for five years, and 4 per cent. for
ninely-fve years thereafter. This con-
tract, however, has to be submitted TO
the bondholders for confirmation, and
some of them will object to II on the
ground that the interest is two low
This is the situation as 1t stands al
present.
The above statement Is confirmed by
the New York World, which says in its
financial columns of yesterday;
1T is stated that the first mortgage
bonds of the Richmond & Allegheny are
to become fixed obligation of the Ches.
apeake l. Ohio at the rate of per cent.
for the first five years and 4 per cent.
thereafter, and that the bondholders will
get nothing to represent interest due and
unpaid, amounting to something like 81 /.

Placing distractions on the u. +. Railway
Track.

Allen Spraggins, small white boy,
was reported at the First police station
Yesterday for placing distractions on the
track of the Richmond Union Passenger
Railway Oelectric) on Twenty-ninth
street.
A Waterman is being laid along
Twenty-ninth street. Large chunks OF
clay were dug out, and Spraggins took a
lot of these and laid them on the track
This was decidedly dangerous. for the
trenches are alongside of the track, and
should a car have been thrown from the
track 1t would have gone over into the
ditch, which varies from six to twelve
feet in depth. Had such an accident oc-
cured, loss of life would have resulted
Spraggins was caught in the act by
Captain A. Langstaa Johnston, engineer
Of the road Two negro boys were also

The Hanover street Case.

1t was intended by all parties inter-
ested to have the Hanover street case
finally disposed of yesterday In the Hen
lico County Court.
Judge Minor is personally interested
ia the case, and consequently Judge
l.edd Of Hanover, has always presided
during the numerous hearings.
In sitting yesterday for the final pro.
ceedings, the fact that it was Hanover
County Court day was lost sight OF, and
for that reason Judge Redd was not pre-.
sent.
