BOTH STAND THEIR GROUND.
THE TROUBLE IN AGREEING ABOUT
THE LYONS BRANCH.

The General Opinion That the Cen
trail Wants More for the Property
Than the Georgia and Alabama is
willing 10 GIve-The Central said
to Have Asked - 900 Per Vile Per
Annum As RentaI-The Georgia and
AIabama's Bid said to BE About
Half That.
There has been a good deal Of curiosity
among people who watch the progress Of
railroad affairs 10 know just why the
Central railroad and the Georgia and
Alabama railroad cannot come together
and make some agreement with regard
10 the lease or purchase by the latter cor
poration of the Lyons branch. from Lyons
10 Meldrim.
The general suDposition IS, and it is
not altogether an unreasonable one. that
the Central wants more for the property
than the Georgia and Alabama is willing
to pay. The curiosity, therefore, has been
to know how much the Central wants and
how much the Georgia and Alabama is
willing to give. Now this is just exactly
what nobody knows except those who rep
resent the two sides, and who have been
in conference with regard to it.
IL mas bTtn lulAuldLtu lndL the central
does not care to sell outright, but might
lease the property on it's own terms. and
that its owners might lease it to the
Georgia and Alabama for about 81 600 per
mile per annum. which would be some
where in the neighborhood Of $4,000 a
year. On a basis Of about 5000 per mile
for the construction Of roadbed and laying
track in this country this would be some
q
the earning power of the property and
other features are to be taken into CON
sideration.
II Is said, on the other hand, that the
Georgia and Alabama people think the
charge for rental should be put on a
structton Of such a railroad al the pres
ent day, but in order to make IL more
satisfactory that they would be willing
TO pay even higher rate of interest as
rental, and even as much as about half
what II Is said the Central railroad people
want
According to this statement. II the Geo
gta and Alabama desired to use the Cen
trails right of way all the way to Savan-
nah, the cost to them would be $1,000,
which Is per cent. on 81, 800. 600. Ii Is
not considered that the construction
of a seventy-five mile railroad would be
more than half the latter amount, and It
Is said the Georgia and Alabama people
might be willing to pay per cent on the
cost of construction of such a railroad to-
day. Of course, there is no way of veri-
flying these figures as none of the parties
interested will talk, but II may be said
they are not based on idle speculation.
In considering a contract for the lease
of railroad Of this kind great many
details have to be taken into considera-
ton, and IL takes some time to get to an
agreement. The length of time which has
been consumed, however, makes it appear
that each side is determined to stand it's
ground and not bulge
If the Georgia and Alabama people in
tend to carry out their announced inten-
ton of getting into Savannah in time to
aid in moving the next cotton crop, il is
evident that they have not very long to
wait to see whether they can come to
terms with the Central

SAID HE'D SHOOT. AND DID.
Willie SpnIdinG Put a Bullet in VIII
ton Virgins Knee.

Wilton Virgins. 14-year-old negro boy.
was shot by Willie Spalding an older
colored youth. at the corner of Sims and
West Broad streets yesterday about l
O'clock.
There was crowd of negro boys on the
corner near e. j. Kieffer's drug store
when Virgins came up to the crowd and
asked another boy for some candy. Spald-
ing spoke to him and told him to get away
from there. Virgins asked Spalding what
he had to do with him. Spalding told him
to look out drawing a pistol from his
pocket as he spoke. He fired almost i'm
mediately, the ball striking Virgins in
the left leg.
Both boys ran off when the pistol fired
but Virgins presently came back and said
he was shot. He was taken into the drug
store by Mr. Kieffer, who examined the
wound and then sent for Dr. T. b. CHS
holm, who extracted the ball
The ball struck above the knee. passing
around the leg and downward, lodging
In the calf of the leg. The wound was moi
serious. Virgins did not appear to think
that Spaldng meant to shoot him but
that he intended merely to frlghten him
and that the pistol went of accidentally
The matter was reported at the police
headquarters. and the officers on that side
of the city were instructed to look out for

AN OUTLET FOR THE WEST.
Savannah Talked Up at the Chicago
Convention.

Capt. d. G.. Purse is expected back to-
day from Chicago where he attended the
annual meeting of the National Manufac-
turers' Association in the interests of Sa-
vannah as an outlet for western trade.
Capt. Purse was very successful in his
mission. which was to attract attention to
Savannah as the proper outlet for west
ern trade with South America and South
Africa. He attracted the attention of
the convention and was quoted at length
by all the newspapers. Capt Purse is
now as well known in Chicago as he is in
Kansas City, Omaha and the far west
generally.
The special subject of discussion by the
convention was the prohibitory freight
rates which have kept down the trade
between Chicago and the south and ways
and means of securing a general readjust-
ment of freight rates were discussed at
length. Capt. Purse told the Chicagoans
that Savannah was ready to join with
them in breaking down this barrier. He is
quoted in the Chicago Times Herald as
saying:
Chicago is now the favorite all over the
south. The manufacturers and planters are
anxious to do business here, turning the
cotton trade into the west. Nothing can
be done in this line until some new trunk
line is built, the Louisville and Nashville
brought to terms, or the Illinois Central
induced to build some connecting links.
Savannah, with It's great importing trade,
has four lines to Montgomery, but no out
let beyond this save by the payment of
eXorbitant shipping charges. Some of it's
business gets into Cincinnati but the
thing we all want is to open the great west
and northwest, and through the south
build up the great export commerce prom
Used by the reciprocity relations with the
Spanish republics"
Savannah is anxious to join its cause
with Chicago's complaint. 1t is ready to
send vessels into South American waters
as soon as the railroads make it possible
that the products of Chicago mills may
be landed on its docks as cheaply as in
New York. The harbor is already dredged
for such an enterprise. 1t is 800 miles
nearer to Colon and Cuba than New York.
with the routes much less dangerous.
Reciprocity with the South American
countries would make Savannah one OF
the most important shipping places in the
world
Congress could, by a union of senti-
ment in the west, be forced to subsi~
die a steamship line to Central America
and to West Africa. The boats would be
constructed under the authority and
supervision of the naval department, ana
in case of war, would be available Suca
lines would save vast sums to Americans
who now pay the cost of shipment on
many necessaries from South America
to Antwerp or London and then back to
New York. Cincinnati leather men get
Brazil hides from Amsterdam. This is
all wrong. and what the south now wants
is closer relationship with the west ana
the countries of the world

THE MAKING OF MATCHES.
There Are Lots of Kinds of Matches,
and All Cheap.
From the Chicago Record.

From the Chicago Record.
One of the evils which the working peo-
pie of France are trying to remove from
the industrial body is the use of white
phosphorus in the manufacture of
matches. The poisonous fumes rising from
the pans in which the material is heated
and the constant handling of the stuff
gives the workmen in match factories the
horrible PHOSPHORUS necrosis, a disease
which attacks the bones, disintegrating
the tissues and causing untold suffering
The French government has endeaVored
to compel the matchmakers to daily, be-
fore leaving the works, gargle their
throats with chlorate of potash, a coun-
ter-poison to phosphorus, but the working
peopel do not observe the rule and in
turn ask the government to use amor
phous PHOSPHORUS, salts of potassa in
stead of white PHOSPHORUS. The latter
material is the cheapest, however, and
the slow poisoning of French match-mak-
ers still goes on.
The French method of making matches
differs in some particulars from that en-
ployed in Sweden and this country. The
French match is made of splints produced
from fir and poplar wood, except when
the Dlints come from Russia, where vast
quantities are made from the aspen tree
The plints are made by machines, which
turn out about 10000 an hour each. ana
one of the great government works In
France uses up over 900 of these
splints in a day. They arrive at the fac
tory in large cases, and are sent through
