Birmingham, Ala, Feb. 11.-There is
much talk here of the Illinois Central

trict in the very near future.

ity that the Illinois Central is getting
control of stock of the Kansas City,
Memphis and Birmingham railroad,
which extends between Birmingham
and Memphis, and which crosses the Il
linoiS Central at Amary, Miss, and ex-
poets to control it, In this manner the
Illinois Central gets into the district.

with the Louisville and Nashville rail-
road in it's highest office, has been seen
in Birmingham several times recently,
and is known to have been over the
Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham
line, and especially around Winfield,
Ala, where surveys are being made for
an extension to coal mines.
