longs family were at the Rhode Island
Yacht Club House at Pawtuxet this
AFTERNOON eHeaiHiHg IL the yacht had
been seen. They stated that Mr.. Budlong
had not been heard from since his depart
ure.
The captain of the yacht said before
they started Friday afternoon,
that the party intended to be
back so as to witness the regatta
which took place yesterday. Communi-
cations have bean sent to Newport and
Block Island asking IL the yacht
Millie had put in at either
place. The party started fol
Montauk Point on a blue fishing ex-
cursion and unless they stopped on the
way must have been outside when the
squall came up.

PUSHING THE SHORT LINE.
Rapid Progress Being Made Between
Macon and Savannah.

Macon and Saw annah.
Rapid progress is being made in the
construction of the Atlantic Short Line
railroad, which is projected to run be
tween Macon and Savannah over what is
almost a Decline between the two points.
President John r. Young will leave the
city this morning for Bruton, where he
goes to inspect the work that is now in
progress and get the exact status Of it be-
fore determining what is the next step
to take.
Between 70 and 100 hands are now work
ing on tho line between Bruton and Still
more. The line for that distance of thir-
ty-eight miles has been graded and the
rails are now being laid. There is a con
struction train in service and it will not
be many days before this portion
OF the line will be entirely COM
pleted. The road will probably
then be built in this direction
from Sullmore, ana is projected to cross
the Central at Pineora. and il is likely
that 1t viii either reach the city by this
line from Pineora or by the Florida Cen
trail and Peninsular with which it could
connect just few miles to the north Of
the Central.
il is calculated that instead of being
bullJ III the other direction to Macon
the Atlantic Short Line will run a track
from Bruton TO Dublin a distance of about
eight miles, where Ii will connect with the
Macon and Dublin railroad from Macon.
II is not definitely known, however,
whether this course will be pursued. Both
these properties are backed by capital,
ana the Atlantic Short Line, it seems. is
willing to consolidate with the Macon and
Dublin on an equitable basis. The lat
ter line, however, would not consent to
any arrangements which were agreeable
to the other company, il seeming to desire.
it is claimed TO buy out the property OF the
Atlantic Short Line for a song. The own
ers OF the latter property were not will
ing to give IL away, and they have gone
ahead with the work of construction as
projected. They are working slowly but
surely, and fully expect to complete the
line into Savannah.
The Macon and Dublin road when no
agreement could be reached, started what
was thought to be a preliminary survey
of route from Dublin into Savannah.
The Atlantic Short Line people look on
this as sort of a bluff to make them ac>
cept the terms proposed by the Macon
and Dublin, which they do not intend to
do. The Atlantic Short Line has a large
portion Of its line already graded and a
good deal or rail laid, and it would not
seem likely. railroad men say, that the
Macon and Dublin would build another
Inc as it has projected it to parallel the
Atlantic Short Line within five TO six miles
of it. Very little has been heard from
that preliminary survey since it was be-
gun, though it is said to have been COM
pleted. No further steps, however, have
been taken.
