TO GO INTO NEW HANDS.
THE CENTRAL NEGOTIATING FOR
THE TYBEE ROAD.

The Deal Expected to be Consum-
mated in Few Days-The Central to
Guarantee the Tybee Roads Bonds
and to Assume the Indebtedness
Upon It's Rolling strck-A Valuable
Addition to the Central's Property
and Zig Thing for Tybee.
1t Is likely that the Central railroad will
own the Savannah and Atlantic railway in
short time. A meeting Of the Centrals
directors, It is understood. will be held to-
day or tomorrow, to consider a proposition
to the Savannah and Atlantic bondholders.
The proposition which n majority Of the
bondholders has agreed 70 accept is that the
Central assume the $3.50 600 of Savannah
and Atlantic railway first mortgage bonds,
with $4,000 of second mortgage bonds
70 cover the individual loans Of the
directors which were TO put the road in
operation after its purchase at receivers
sale last December, making 100000 of 5
per cent bonds, which the Central will in
dorse with interest from Sept. l next
instead of May l, 1891. The Central will
also get $3.50, goo Of Savannah and At
lantic stock and will assume the indebted
ness upon the compsny's rolling stock.
AN IMPORTANT DEAL
The DEAL which has been under negotiation
for some time, il consummated, will take
effect at once. There is not much doubt
that the proposition will be accepted by all
of the bondholders, aud President Alexan-
der, it is said, will present the proposition,
with his Endorsement, TO the Central direct
ors
The transfer Of the Savannah and Allan
tic property to the Central will be the con
summation Of a important deal. 1t will give
the Central the control not only of an addi-
tional twenty miles of railway, with its
rolling stock and equipments, but it will
give it the control of over eight miles of
valuable water front on McQueen's Island
and deep water at Lazaretto creek and
valuable terminal privileges. besides a
through line to the sea and to the great re-
sort of the South Atlantic coast.
BIG THING FOR TYBEE.
The Central's control Of the property win
advance the development Of Tybee and will
put into the SYSTEMS hands thoroughly
built and equipped road, with track and
roadbed capable of handling the heaviest |
traffic.
Neither Gen. Alexander nor President |
Purse are inclined to talk about the deal,
but there seems to be little doubt that it |
will be consummated. The only trouble 50
far has been the securing of the &C
ceptance of the proposition by the |
out of town bondholders. All of the Sa- |
vannah bondholders have signed it, and it
is believed that the northern bondholders' |
signatures viii be obtained in the next few |
days. 1t is probable that formal PROPOSE |
ton will be made by the Central this week,
and that an immediate transfer of the prop |
erty will follow its acceptance.

THEY ALL WANT PENSIONS.
Justice T. j. SheftaI Taken for Pen
sion Agent.

Justice T. j. sheftau Taken for Pen
sion Agent.
Justice Sheftall has a grievance against
the MORNING NEWS. He says the article
on pensions on Sunday caused him to be
besieged all day yesterday with parties de-
string to secure pensions. They got the idea
somehow that he was a pension agent,
whereas he only witnesses papers for appli-
cants as any other justice may do.
Over thirty people saw him about pen
sions during the day, ten of whom were
white, three of them being widows of
soldiers and the balance ex-unlon soldiers.
He had no application papers for pen
sions himself, but he gave parties the
names Of the different agents to whom
they might address requests for applica-
ton papers. 1t is a little curious that
all the whites selected Col. W. W. Dudley
as their agent, while the negroes mostly
addressed Chas. q VIM. B. King, aud
Justice Sheftall wrote out and forwarded
four applications Tor pensions.
