a Proposition in Georaia's Legislature for
the State to Buy the Central Railroad.
ATLANTA. Oct 20-A movement was started
In the Georgia Legislature to-day for the pur-
chase by the State Of tho Central Railroad
property. Tho Central Railroad securities are
held heavily in the State as investments In
trust and estate funds.
The loss In those values has been en- ormous.
The holders of these securities have been
moving quietly to get the State to become the
owner OF this property aud thus protect it's
value.
There is precedent for this action In the fact
that tho State built and still owns the Western
and Atlantic road, l3S miles long. running to
Chattanooga.
This road pays the State q monthly income
OF S37,5OO which Is said to lie q better diyi-
the country. The proposition to-day came up
in an amendment TO the State Constitution.
