ARE COMPLETED FOR SECURING THE FUNDS TO COMPLETE THE ATLANTA AND BIRMINGHAM EXTENSION.


 New York, November 4.-Concerning the arrangements for financing the Sea- board Air Line Railroad company, nego- tiations regarding which have been car red on for several days. it was learned authoritatvely today that s. Davies Warfield, president of the Continental Trust company of Baltimore, and parties in Baltimore and Richmond owning and controlling a large majority of the stock of the Seaboard Air Line, have requested Thomas Ryan and Blair & Go. to furnish the funds deemed necessary by the of- flcers of the company to complete the Att lanta and Birmingham extension and to take care of the floating debt
 Blair & Go. and Mir. Ryan have agreed to furnish the amount asked for, pro- vided the management of the property is entrusted to board of directors named by them.
 It Is understood that the plans pro- posed have the approval of President John Skelton Williams and his assistants.
 A banking house recently affiliated with the Seaboard Air Line, in a semi official statement today announced that it did not approve the Blair proposal. This house said it regarded this latest development in the Seaboards affairs as a tentative plan, and intimates that some thing might intervene to prevent its con- summation.

All of them visited Fort Moultrie, but by courtesy of the war department and Col. Potts, com mandant, many of the ladies went to Fort Sumter, rather than the Isle of Palms. Under escort of Capt. Jordan and Lieut.. Bunker, U. S. A, the government vessel General Howe, made two trips from Sullivan's island to historic Fort Sumter. where every attention was shown to the visitors. After their return to the city, at the afternoon and evening ses- sions there were protracted discussions as to changes in the constitution and bylaws, but no important conclusions were reached.
 The main proceedings were the selec uon of St Louis next October as the place of meeting, and the reading of re- ports from the state chairmen from South Carolina, Tennessee.
