WILL THE ROAD BE soLDq
Receiver Cleveland Gives a Talk or
the Subject,
From the Greenville Mountaineer.

From the Greenville Mountaineer.
Mr.. John b. Cleveland, the Receiver
of the Port Royal and Western Caro-
lima, has been interviewed by the
Spartanburg Herald, and asked
whether he thought the road would
be sold as advertised on the Itch of
October. He believes that the sale
will take place, admitting that the in
dications were against it a few days
ago. MIR. Cleveland says that this
was owing to the fact that the Central
Trust Co. had taken an appeal. Since
that, however, important develop
ments have taken place in New York.
All the securities of the +. II. 81 w. G..
were sold at public auction and bid in
by Messrs. Thomas and Ryan repre-.
senting the committee having in
charge the reorganization of the Con-
trail Railroad property. This was q
preliminary step and makes The way
comparatively easy for the Central
Railroad Co. to now bid in the p. r. &

ever, II the Central Railroad in fur
therance of its plans should wish &c.
lay, l suppos they would not hesitate
to ask for the postponemenG of the
sale. Everything pOiHts now to an
early sale of the road. Who its pur'
chaser will be-, / do not know. The
Central Railroad and Bank ng Co. Of
Georgia has the greatest interest q,
stake. 1t Is very reasonable to suppose
that they will protect their interest in
every possible way. and they are GER
tainly now in a position to do so. The
Central Railroad & Banking Company
under its plan of reorganization viii
be owned entirely by the Southern
Hallway Company. as the Southern
stakeholder. What the future policy
will be in the operation of the road, j
am unable to eay. The Southern Rail
way people have thought this a matte
OF such consequence that in reply to
commercial body in Macon they saN
that the Central Railroad propertie
will be operated Independent Of tn,

COUNTING IN CHURCH.-A you1o
gentleman at church conceived a mosf
violent and sudden passion for a younC
lady in the next pew, and felt DESTROYS
of entering In courtship on the SPOT
but tho place not suiting a formal de,
claration, the exigency suggested the
following plan: He politely handed
his fair neighbor a Bible open, with a
pin stuck in the following text:
Second Epistle of John, verse 5:
And now | beseech thee, lady, not as
though wrote q new commandments
unto thee, but that which we had
from the beginning, that we love one
another"
She returned 1t with the following
Second chapter of Ruth, 10th verse :
~ Then she fell on her face and bowed
herself to the ground, and said unto
him, Why have | found grace in thina
eyes, that thou shouldst take notice OF
seeing l am a stranger ?n
He returned the book, pointing tn
the 18th verse OF the Second Epistfe of
John: "Haying many things to write
unto you, | would not write with paper
and Ink but | trust to come unto Won
speak face to face.'
From the above interview the mar
took place the coming week.
