 GeOrEia.


 Columbus, Ga. Oct 26.-(Special)-- An obstruction was placed on the track of the Central of Georgia Railway on the Macon line. four miles from Colum bus. last night. presumably for the pur- pose of wrecking either the regular passenger train from Columbus to Ma con or. special train returning from the State Fair The obstruction was discovered in time and a wreck was thus fortunately averted.
 Central Railway officials went to the scene last night. accompanied by City Detective Moore. who carried the city's blood hounds for the purpose of track ing the wouldbe wreckers. It began raining before they reached the scene however, an the dogs were unable to follow the scent.
 This makes the second attempt re- gently to wreck a Central of Georgia passenger train in Muscogee County.
