NOT INTERESTED :: Ted:
President Williams Says III is Not
Looking towards the
Coal Fie.d

President John Shelton Williams, OF the
seaboard Air Line, yesterday gave out
the following interview in regard to the
Impression made upon the Senate Com
mittee on Roads Tuesday afternoon by
Mr.. ". a. Glasgow, attorney for the
Norfolk and Western, TO the effect that
the Seaboard is probably back of the
Gladesville Railroad Company. which
proposes to develop coal feds in Buch-
anan. Dickinson and Wise counties:
..If Mr.. Glasgow is quoted correctly
in the morning papers, the statements
which he made before the Senate Com
mittee on Roads and Internal Navigation
Seaboard Air Line Railway, are not IN
accordance with the facts in the case,
and are remarka bly, incorrect.
1.-The statement which he is reported 10
have made that the Gladesville Railway
charter was probably backed by the Sea-
board Air Line Railway is without found
alton, and the further statement that the
Seaboard Air Line Railway has recently
purchased the Virginia and Southwestern
Railroad is equally incorrect.
IF Mr.. Glasgow had taken the trouble
to communicate with me before attempt
ing to state our position or inform the
Senate Committee as to what we, were
doing, he could have avoided these errors
1.-The Seaboard Air Line Railway has
been frequently urged to extend its lines
into the coal fields of Southwest Vir-
ginia, in order to develop properties
which. are now lying dormant ind yield
neither the State nor their owners any
revenue, and if we should at any time
determine upon such a policy, the selfish
arguments advanced by the gentlemen
referred to are not likely to have any
weight with the legislators who have a!
heart the best interests Of the Common
wealth and are anxious to see her re-
sources developed"
