soUTHwEsTERN's PROXIES.
Indications That Many Stockholders
Will Attend the Meeting.

The committee of stockholders Of the
Southwestern railroad, which sent out
circulars short time ago calling for
proxies for the February meeting, has met
with considerable degree of success.
A large number of proxies has been
sent in to Mr.. George Mills, Receiver
Conner, Capt Henry Blum and MIR j. S.
Tison, and from many more who have
been solicited, they have received letters
stating that the holders of stock desired
to attend the meeting in person. In fact,
large number of shareholders have so
signifed and from all indications the
meeting of the stockholders viii be a
large one and most all of the stock will
be represented.
The reasons given by some of those who
have not sent in their proxies are not at
all antagonistic to the ideas of the Savan-
nah stockholders who are opposed to the
Raoul resolutions, but they prefer where
the interests at stake are so great, and
where the result of the meeting means so
much to attend in person, and get every
point of view as to the best course to pur-
sue. Large blocks of stock held in New
York will be represented, but their
holders, while they do not favor
withdrawal of the property from the
Central, are DESTROYS of doing what is
best for the property, and their repre-
sentatives will be there ready to act as
seems best
1t is the general belief that those OPP
posed to the resolutions will have large
majority of the stock when the time
comes, and if assurances mean anything
it may be said there is little doubt about

Our readers will be interested in a
treatise Of thirty-six pages, just from the
press, and issued in the interest of the
Buffalo Lithia Water. The pamphlet
contains description of the various dis
eases in which this water can be taken to
advantage and also embraces a large
amount of testimony from prominent ply
sicians, giving their experience in the use
of Buffalo Lithia Water in the treatment
of govt, rheumatism, Brights disease,
nervous prostration and the affections pc
culiar to women. This treatise is the most
complete we have ever seen on any min
eral water These waters are rapidly
coming into more general use and the
public is learning that for many of the
aches and pains of life nature has pro-
vided remedies of her own. The pam
phlet may be obtained by addressing a
postal to Col Thomas F. Goode, Buffalo

COLLISION AT THUNDERRoLT.
Two Coast Line Cars Run Into Each
other and Cause a Smash-up.

4WO OOdbb AAnS SdTb nun Into Gacn
Other and Cause Smash-up.
There was damaging little collision at
Thunderbolt yesterday morning shortly
after the cars on the Coast Line railroad
began to run for the day
The Isle of Hope car in charge of Mo
torman Crosby and Conductor Willard
was going out, and the Thunderbolt car
in charge of Motorman Bell and Conduc-
tor Williams, was coming into the city
The Thunderbolt car was coming in
pretty rapidly and met the other car Just
at the curve in front of Winters place
The curve is sharp one and the motor
men of the two cars did not see each
other until IL was too late to stop Mot
orman Bells car crashed into the Isle of
Hope car, smashing the dash board and
breading it up pretty badly The motor
men, however, managed to get out of the
way in time to avoid being hurt by the
accident Somesof the glass windows in
the two cars were smashed, and the pas
sengers were pretty badly shaken up,
though no one was seriously hurt.
The cars were brought into the shed
where they will be repaired 1t seems
from the statements made that the
1hunderbolt car was at fault for starting
before the Isle of Hope car had gotten
out of the way.

TRANSFERRING ROLLING STOCK.
No Property Necessary For Opera
tions Being Taken from c., r. & @.

NO property Necessary FOR opera
tions Being Taken from O., r. & @.
A report has been circulated here and
in Atlanta to the effect that the Central
railroad is removing the rolling stock
from the Chattanooga, Rome and Column
bus railroad, preparatory to turning it
over to whoever is appointed by the cir
cult court in Atlanta as receiver of that
property.
1t will be remembered the bondholders
Of the property recently filed bill in that
court asking the separate foreclosure of
that road, which is a part of the Savat-
nah and Western system AT the time the
matter was heard for temporary action by
the court, no one was suggested by the
bondholders as a receiver for the property.
The court then rendered il to Messrs.
Conner and Lowry, receivers of the Savan-
nah and Western system. For various
reasons which are known to those gentle
men, they declined the receivership of
the property, stating that in their ludg-
ment it was best that it should have
separate receiver. 1t was believed, too,
that their refusal to serve was caused by
some friction or misunderstanding be-
tween them and the bondholders OF the
property.
Receiver Conner was asked yesterday
about the report that the rolling stock
was being removed from that road pre-
paratory to turning it over to whoever is
appointed receiver. He said that the re-
port is entirely without foundation. What
is being done is taking away from theroad
all the rolling stock now on that road be-
longing TO the Savannah and Westerns
other lines, and that belonging TO the
Central. Some of the rolling stock be-
longing to these properties Is now on the
Chattanooga, Rome and Columbus rail
road and some of the rolling stock, en-
gines, cars, etc, belonging to the latter
road are now on other parts of the Cen
trail system, The rolling stock belonging
to the Chattanooga, Rome and Colum bus,
is being carried back there and the stock
there belonging to the other lines Of the
Central is being removed preparatory to
turning over the property TO whoever the
court may appoint.
Only such of the rolling stock is being
removed, he said, which is not necessary
to the operation of the property. OF
course, after the appointment of the new
receiver, the road will be under a new
management, and a separate one from
that Of the Central, but Receiver Conner
says the Central's interests in the prop
erty are too great not to look after them,
and that the Central and the Savannah
and Western, OF which the Chattanooga,
Rome and Columbus is part, will furnish
that road whatever rolling stock is neces-
sary for operating it properly.
A similar report was started at the
time the Port Royal and Augusta rail
road was put into the hands of a separate
receiver, but the Central has not failed
to see that it was properly cared for, so
far as rolling stock is concerned.

BUILDING RATHER QUIET.
Work on Small Dwellings About ths
Only Thing Now Being Done,


Only Thing Now Being Done.
Tho contractors and architects are hav-
ing very little to do just now. No very
large building contracts have been let
out within the last month or two, and
there seems TO be little prospect for much
demand for architectural and building
work until later in the spring.
There are great many small dwellings
being built and improved however, in the
southern part of the city Since the city
limits have been extended. and steps have
been taken towards affording that section
all or greater partof the municipal adj
vantages some impetus has been given to
the building of residences in that section.
No very large dwellings, however, are
being built, and in many cases they are
being put up by contractors without any
previous architectural work.
A greater part of the building here how
ever is done during the spring and sum-
mer months, and it is believed that there
will be much of it to do as the season ad-
vances. Several large concerns are
contemplating extensive improvements
and additions to their store room which
may be made later on. The architects
are just between seasons now, but some
of them are doing quite a little amount of
work on houses and other buildings con-
templated in some of the surrounding
counties.
Only three building permits were is
sued by the clerk of the council last
month. They were as follows:
A. N. O'Keefe, 2-story frame residence,
No. 142 Duffy street.
Mrs. j. Max, 2-story brick house on
Gordon street.
Charles A. Munster, three 3-storv frame
dwellings at Henry and Draytou streets.
