And the c., H. 6 D. Gets Control
 of the Q. 6 c.
SAM SPENCER'S SOUTHERN
Not in ft-The C., H. & D. and O. & c. Will Be Operated
 Separately.

Calvin s. Brice and his support have been busted from the Erlanger syndicate, and now the Cincin nati, Hamilton and Dayton has control of the Queen aud Cres- cent.
 Concerning this change the Cincinnati Tribune says: The result also sets at rest all rumors in regard to the sale of the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific railway to Samuel Spencer's new Southern Railway company, and confirms the f4ct that our own Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton will control and operate Cincin ! nati's line to the heart of the south.
 On August the full board of English shareholders of the Alabama Great Southern Railway company Qimited) met in London and passed resolutions deposing Dir ectors Sam Thomas, Calvin s. Brice and John Grenough. They elected Henry A. Taylor of New York and M. D. Woodford of Cinciu natisto fill two of the vacancies.
 The shareholders met again yesterday and took action which places the Cincinnati, i, Hamilton and Dayton in full control of the property. The new board of directors, as selected by the shareholders, is as follows: English, Augusta ; B; il. AbIahams' E.Iahann' Il. George w. Medley and Francis Pavey; American H. A. Taylor, M. D. Woodford, H. F. Shoemaker, J H. Taylor, Alfred Sully and Eugene Zimmerman.
 It will be seen that there are six Ameri- can directors and five English, and the half dozen stars and stripes fellows have the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton stamp upon them, thus practically placing the propert, in their possession.
 When the time arrives for the holding of the next annual election, which will be in October, the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton will still further strengthen its hold, and the outlook seems exceedingly bright for brilliant future for the line that connects the Queen City with the sunny south.
 When President Spencer of the Southern Railway company denied that he intended buying the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific road he probably knew that 1t was not for sale, and that 1t had fallen into hands which were willing and per fectly competent to control its destinies. While the Tribune's cable report Of the meeting did not enter into details, 1t Einted that the action of August was not con sidered definite enough, and the Saturday meeting was held to clinch the change. .
 Now that the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton is in more or less full control. the question naturally arises asI O what will be done-whether Sam Felton will be super seded and the policy changed. It may be said that the plans are not fully developed, but it is not at all likely that MT. Felton will be deposed. His thorough acqnaint- ance with the lines and his natural ability and standing in business circles render bim peculiarly fit for the position he now holds, and the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton people know it. %
 The road will, in all probability, be oper- ated independently of the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton in so far as tue man agement is concerned, but tho interests will be identical, with the result of making Cincinnati the principal station between the Gulf of Mexico and the great lakes. The Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton has natl and it's interests, and the people may rest assured that they are pretty sure to be benefited by having their property in the hands of a corporation whose interests are so closely unidentified with this territory as is the Cincin nati, Hamilton and Dayton.
