Apparently the fertilizer manufacturipj

Apparently the fertilizer manufacturing
business of the South is about to be concen-
trated in the hands of one concern. In fact
this is nearly the case already The recent
purchase of the properties Of the Commercial
Gusno Company at Savannah and Columbus
by the Virginia Carolina Chemical Company
is only enc of several large purchases of a
SINH. ar character made by the latter concern.
The Virginia Carolina Chemical Company is
capitalized at $24.O00,0 Oo, and its headquar-
sers are at Richmond. It Is evidently the
purpose of its promoters to secure control Of
the entire fertilizer manufacturing business of
the South.

Consolidated Said to Have Found Har-
lem Yards Inadequate.
Stamford, Dec 22-Agents of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
Railroad company have recently been
in Stamford looking for dock prop
erty to establish large freight yard
there. The facilities for handling per-
ishable freight in the Harlem yards
have been inadequate for several
years, and the company has suffered
loss for this reason. After carefully
examining the available shore front be-
tween Harlem and Norwalk the agents
Of the company found land here best
adapted for the proposed new freight
terminus. Freight from the west and
east will be brought to Stamford on
transports, If the plans are carried out,
and trains will be made up here for cit
les In the east.
In connection with the new freight
terminal it Is the intention of the COM
pany to establish a passenger service
which, In all probability. will include
day and night boats, so that it will be
possible to make the trip by water be-
tween Stamford and New York in eth
err direction sometime during the day
and evening.
