NORTH CAROLINA
Ex-Congressman Henderson Doesn't
Anticipate Any Call for Cur
rcncy Convention-Dr. Chancellor,
of 1t. Louis.

WASHINGTON. -. c., July T-(Spe-
cial)-General-M Manager Green. Of the
Southern railway, said this morning that
he did not think the offices Of the. COM
pany would be removed from this city
10 Atlanta. In fact, SO far az he knew
the matter had not been considered. OF
course, he had read accounts Of the re-
cent meeting held by the citizens Of At
lanta, urging the company to locate their
general offices in that city. and no doubt
there were other cities that would be
equally pleased to have them; but that
was no reason the company had any idea
of making a change. Mr.. Green does not
claim to speak for others connected
with the company, but he certainly has
heard nothing that warrants the state
rnent that the Southern will break up
here.
The Offices at present occupied In
Washington. are among the most cOmmo-
dious and convenient TO be secured. and
the company own the big building at
the corner Of Pennsylvania avenue and
Thirteenth street. The chances are the
Atlanta meeting will result in nothing,
the Atlantans, who seem TO want every
thing IN sight.
NORTH CAROLINA.
Ex-COngressman John s. Henderson. Of
North Carolina, arrived in the city this
morning and left for home again this
evening. lie came heie to attend TO
some private business.
Mr.. Henderson said political matters
were extremely quiet In North Carolina
at present there being no election this
year in the state. For that reason Ii
was hard TO say whether or not any
change had taken place i'm North Carolina
regarding the eilver question. Norm
Carolina has heretofore been extreme on
this question-perhaps as strongly Tor lhe
white metal as any State in the South.
Mr.. Henderson further said, that so iir
as he could judge, there would be no
direct effort TO get up a convention 10
test the sense Of the people on the cur
rency questions. as has been done in
Illinois, Missouri and Texas.
