Atlanta. Ca, March 2S.-TThe dispute
over the land occupied by the Central
railroad tracks between Whitehall and

the litigation OF the Western and Alabama
road, and Receiver Conner and Attorney
Cunningham Of the Central road had
conference at the capitol in regard to
an adjustment of the differences between
the state and the road, and it was de-
cided to leave the matter to arbitration in
accordance with the act of the last legls-

property is very valuable, being worth at
a conservative estimate at $l50,000 The
question to be determined by the ar
bitrators is whether the Central shall
lease. purchase or rent the property from
the state.
