chester has long been felt, and it seems
now that a plan is on foot which, II sue
cessfully- carried out, will fill this want
The idea originated in the Business Men
Association and has been under consid-
Grafton by members of that body for
some time.
The plan is for the association in con-
junction with the Southern Railway TO
erect a building at Twelfth and Hull
Streets, on the corner now occupied by
Mr. NJ A. Campbell. which shalt be the
home of the association and headquarters
for the Railway 7. NJ. c. y.
There has been Il movement on foot
for some time towards establishing
railroad branch of the 7. NJ c. a. in
the city in which the Southern Railway
has taken particular interest. This plan
has been presented to the officials OF the
Southern Railway, and has met WITH
their approval and encouragement IN so
far that they have promised to contribute
literally towards the erection of the
building. 1t is probable the Business
MEMS Association will be Incorporated
and a joint stock company be formed
Dr. w. P. Mathews, who has been ac-
lively interested in this undertaking, SAID
last night he thought it would be sue
cessfully carried through
