A NEW RAILROAD SYSTEM.

a Combination of six Railroads Be-
tween Palatke and Cincinnati.
Mr.. Erb, member of the reorganization
committee of the Marietta and North Geor-
gia railroad is at the De Soto, and last night
was discussing with parties interested in
the Georgia Southern and Florida road, the
feasibility and advisability of linking to-
gethsr the six roads that lie between Pa
lRtka, Fla, and Middleboro, KY, thus
making a short line between Palatka and
Cincinnati.
Mr.. Erb says that the plan of reorganiza-
ton which has already been alluded to In
the MORNING News, has been declared
operative, and as soon as possible will go
into effect. He said the syndicate In whose
hands the matter now lies has received all
but $4,000 Of the outstanding bonds, and
that they expect TO have them all in within
a short time. This makes the bondholders
practically unanimous for reorganization,
which will put the road on a profitable
running basis.
THE road, - said he, sis still in the hands
of the courts and will be there for three or
four months yet. 1t is bel ng kept there in
order to facilitate the settlement of several
cases now pending, in which the road is in-
rerested, one Of which is in Cincinnati.
There Is short portion of the road, in
Guiding the narrow gauge short line, on
which there are some outstanding first
mortgage bonds. An arrangement is being
made by which these will probably be
taken upt at so cents on the dollar together
with q sufficient amount of underlying
bonds of the new company to make the ex-
change equitable. The combination Of
these six roads, as contemplated, will form
a through system from Palatka to Cincin-
natl, passing through section rich In re-
sources"
MIR. Erb is in the city for the purpose Of
consulting with several parties in regard to

Ready for Spring Trade.

Everybody now bids farewell to winter,
and while it is expected and almost always
realized that March will make some demon
stration of the parting season and impress
the Inhabitants of this globe that they
should welcome the glorious spring time.
the month has just started in with a ven
geance. Spring will come along, notwith-
standing, and all men and children will
want something to wear. Messrs. Collat
Bros. have made special arrangements to
supply the general trade with clothing, hats
and shoes for men and boys, and their past
reputation for enterprise and good selec-
tions, and specially low prices, Is recon-
mendation that their patronage will in
crease IN popularity.

SAVED FOURTEEN LIVES.
Capt. W. @. Les Awarded a Col
Medal By the Governm emit.

CdDEs w. u. LOS u IOA0
Medal by the Government.
Capt. W. G. Lee, United States inspector
Of bulls for this district, has been awarded
the gold medal author lied by congress for
heroism in life saving. He received notice
yesterday that the medal had been ordered
by the Secretary Of the Treasury, and will
be ready IN three or four weeks.
The medal 10 awarded only in recognition
Of heroic service in saving life imperilled by
drowning. Congressman Bullock Of Florida
will make the formal presentation probably,
either here or in Jacksonville.
Capt. Lee has rescued at different times
fourteen people from drowning. Several Of
the rescues were remarkable displays Of
heroism. he already holds a handsome
gold medal for a rescue IN the st. Johns
river, Florida, and various other
testimonials Of his bravery. One
Of his most daring rescues was
while acting as mate on the steamer h. b.
Plant running between Savannah and
Tybee in 1881. Two children fell overheard
from the steamer on the night Of an eXcur-
sion by the St Patricks Total Abstinence
and Benevolent Society. Capt Lee sprung
overheard and rescued one and after nearly
losing his own life through
exhaustion succeeded in saving the other
For this rescue be was presented a hand
some testimonial by the society. The
presentation was made by Rev. Edward
Cafferty now vicar general Of the diocese
Of Georgia.
While rescuing a party Of four people
from the St. Johns river. near Palatks, Capt
Lee came near losing his own life. The
steamer OF which he was mate ran down a
rowboAt on which was q party Of people.
The accident occurred in the night. The
rowboat was crushed by the steamers
Wheel and it was supposed the occupants
were drowned. In a moment Capt.
Lee sprang from the deck Of the
steamer into the river, and
after an heroic effort rescued three
of the party. As he was bringing the third
one up a chair was thrown from the
steamer and struck him on the head render
ing him unconscious for moment. He
maintained his hold, however, on the drown
ing man and a moment later, regaining
consciousness, succeeded in reaching the
steamer and was pulled on deck. For
this, also, he holds a valuable testimonial.
In every instance where life has been at
stake Capt. Lee has exhibited a remarkable
bravery and has shown an utter absence of
fear for his own life In saving that of others.
The award of the first class
medal, which is the highest recognition of
service of that character by the govern
ment, is a just testimonial of the services
Capt. Lee has rendered.
