est in that road will induce steps to be
taken to connect the two properties.
Would Build to Savannah.
1t is regarded as highly improbable that
such a connection, if made, will be built
from Atlanta so Montgomery, as these two
cities are the western terminal of the
two systems. The most likely plan would
be to build from some point on the Geor-
gia, Carolina and Northern to Savannah,
so as to secure a direct route to shat
city. The eaboard already has direct
route to Atlanta. A plan to establish
new direct line from the national capital
to Florida by building into Richmond and
securing connection from there to Wash
ington, would take the road toward Sa-
Vannah.
The Seaboard has been anxious for some
years to reach New Orleans and connection
into Washington. made by filling in the
gap from Ridgeway, N. c., to Richmond
Va, would put the system in position to
make satisfactory terms for reaching the
Crescent City. There has been considera-
be talk in the past of an alliance between
the Louisville and Nashville and the Sea-
board Air Line, and it is believed that
such an agreement would quickly follow
if the Seaboard was in a position TO fur
nish a satisfactory entrance into Wash
ington.
There would be but little difficulty in ar
ranging for through cars 10 Baltimore,
Philadelphia and New York from Wash
