Gen. Thomas declares the rumors that
business will be diverted from Savannah
to Norfolk to be entirely false. The
business of the Central will be allowed
to take its natural channel, he declares,
and the Southern will not seek to divert
it. The Ocean Steamship Lines will con-
tinue to be operated from Savannah.
The presence of Plant system officials at
to-day's sale gave rise to the report that
Plant intended to buy in the Central but
there was only one Did, that made by
Crawford.
