building branch railroad from Glouccs.

Jersey Southern road, has apparently re-
manned quicsccnt the past week or ~, not
withslanding the action Of the Gloucester
City council IN granting a right OF way for
the new line. The reason for this IL that
negotiations are pending with the Reading
railroad for the purchase All its Camden,
Gloucester & Mount Ephmim branch, and
u they terminate successfully the idea OF
establishing the terminus OF the line nj
Gloucester will bo abandoned. The same
surveyors who were first sent 90 run line

considerably larger than this scarcely adj
mits of doubt. As the percentage OF
rental increases, OF course the maximum
OF gross earnings necessary TO yield divi-
dends on the juniorstocks will be reduced.
For the present the lease assures a
full dividend on the first preferred stock,
and a surplus for the second preferred
stock, while the future gives every assur-
ance OF full dividends ultimately on the
second preferred stock. As the Richmond
& West Point Terminal company is the
owner OF Richmond d Danvillc, IL ID pat
ent that, while East Tennessee is to be
benefited by its percentages, the great gain
will 90 into the pocket OF Richmond Ter
mina, ms the parent concern OF all.
This latter is Endorsed by the course OF
the Richmond Terminal stocks in the stock
market, aided by the impression that Rich
mond Terminal preferred stock will shortly
be retired.
The purchase OF the Central OF Georgia
by the Richmond Terminal, announcement
OF which was made yesterday, makes the
Richmond Terminal the greatest railroad
system in the south. That company will
be able to dictate terms TO all compel tors,
and will get the cream OF the railroad bust
ness in the southern States. With the
East Tennessee the Richmond Terminal
gets control OF 1900 miles Of road, and with
the Georgia Central OF 200 miles more.
The Richmond Terminal system was about
5000 miles in extent, 80 that with It's new
acquisition IL will control over q, 700 miles
OF road. 1t also secures from the Georgia
company the ownership OF the Ocean
Steamship company, which has an enor-
nous business between the ports OF New
York and Savannah.
The purchase OF the Georgia Central has
been completed, and the money paid
over. The entire Sl2 100000 Of stock OF
the Georgia company goes into the treas
ury Of the Richmond Terminal, and this
stock is earning over 10 per cent per an
mum. which will make handsome diyi-
donds for the Richmond Terminal stock.
