TO REMODEL THE sCREvEN.
$4,000 to 100000 to be Expended
In improvements

Proprietor Dub, of the Screven house, has
received the plans for the addition which
will be built to the Screven next year. The
drawings represent the hotel complete after
the additions are made. G. L. Norman of
Atlanta is the architect, and in a letter to
Mr.. Dub yesterday he said that the addition
can be built at cost of about $50, 600
Mr.. Dub said that with the necessary equip
ments, etc, to render the hotel modern in
all its appointments, it will cost not less
than $1,000
Work will begin about May 1, and Mr..
Dub hopes within nine months to be occu-
plying the hotel. That portion of the build
ing extending from the present dining
room, and including the office and reading
room, will be torn down. The parlors will
be used as offices until the building has been
completed. The hotel will be built two
stories higher on Bull street and three
stories higher, including an observatory,
on Congress street.
The corner of the building at Bull and
Congress streets will be circular, extending
the entire hight-six stories-and culminat-
ing at the top in a tower. ThereR will be
three bridal chambers in this circular apart
| ment overlooking johnson square. The
ladies' entrance will be on Bull street in
stead of on Congress, and the main entrance
will be where the ladies' en- rance now is.
On the second floor over the Offices will
be rotunda, and opening into it from the
west will be three parlors and on the other
side will be a 60-foot piazza extending out
over Congress street. There will be 90
foot piazza extending along Bull street on
the first floor.
Where the Office, reading room and saloon
| now are will be four large stores. The
hotel, completed, will have 122 rooms, in
stead of the present number, 90. There
will be, when the addition is made, fifteen
suites of rooms, including parlors, bed
rooms, and bath and toilet. The baggage
room will be down stairs and will be aces
ible by elevator.
Tho new part of the building will be of
Philadelphia pressed brick and white
granite

FOUR PER GENT. DECLARED.
CentraPs Semi-Annual Dividend-Mr
Inman's Position.

CentrapS SemiAnnuGl Dividend-Mr.
Inman's Position.
The Central railroad directors held their
December meeting yesterday. But three
out-of-town directors were present, Pat
Calhoun, Hugh T. Inman and C. H.
Phinizy. The only action taken was to de-
clare a 4 per cent. semi-annual dividend
payable Dec 81.
After the meeting Gen. Alexander was
seen by a MORNING NEWS reporter and
was asked in regard to the statements at
tributed to President InInan of the Ter
mlnal company in Atlanta, that finding
sentiment against the consolidation in this
state he had revoked the negotiations for
the loan and cancelled the contract for the
steamers, and that no will not push himself
or his company on the south; that if they
do not want him he will let the matter
stand as it is, as he cannot advise his friends
to invest money where they were likely to
have trouble over the investment.
Gen. Alexander said what Mr.. Inman
said has been very much distorted. Mr..
Inman. he said, has no revulsive feeling
against Georgia or the south, and has ex
pressed no such sentiment. it is safe to say,
| as is attributed to him. He and the gentle
men who visited Georgia were satisfied
| and highly plea cd with their reception and
| the possibilities for the future.
There is nothing new. Gen. Alexander
said, in the revocation Of the order to build
the new steamer, and this breaking off OF
negotiations with Drexel, Morgan & Co. to
float the bonds beyond what Mr. Inmuu
and President Alexander gave to the press
last week aud which the MORNING NEWS
published in full Threatened Legislation
against railroad amalgations had a ten
dency to make those apprehensive VIII.
were about to furnish the money on the
bonds required to build the Eden extension,
the new steamers aud advance such
other enterprises the company had
in view to increase the facilities for
the better handling Of the business now
controlled, and new business that can be
secured. These enterprises will have TO
wait until apprehensions are alsyed. In
President Aloxander's opinion that is about
Mr.. Inrnan's position, and with this view
he says that the effort to place any other
construction upon what Mr.. Inman did say
distorts him, and is therefore misleading.

KILLED BY A TRAIN.
Benjamin McElveen Fatally Injured
While Trying to Steal a Ride.

Benjamin McElveen Fatally Injured
While Trying to Steal Ride.
Benjamin McElYeen, the colored man
who was run over near the Coast Line rail
road depot by a Savannah, Florida and
Western railway train early yesterday
morning, died shortly afterward
at the Georgia Infirmary from
his wounds. DR.. Duncan attended
the wounded man soon after the accident,
but he saw at once that the wounds were
fatal. and instead of amputating the mans
leg, which was crushed up to his body, he
gave him stimulants and ordered him re-
moved TO a car at the depot, where he was
cared for until morning. McElveen's right
thigh and also his right arm were
crushed into shapeless mass.
DR.. Duncan bandaged and bound tn
wounds as best he could and did everything
to all viate the suffering mans condition,
and early in the morning he ordered his
removal to the Georgia intirmary
The employees think McElveen was trying
to steal a ride into the city, as they do not
remember him as an employe of the rail
road
