How the People Feel With Ref

The Knoxville journal and Trib-
une has the following with reference
to the railway situation in Southwest
Virginia:
a travelling salesman representing
one Of Knowles leading business
houses, has Just returned from a "trip
through the Southwest Virginia coal
fields. and reports considerable ex-
element in that territory over the
prospects Of having a new line OF
railroad. Il seems, he states. that as
soon as the Virginia aad Southeast
ern Railroad secured its charter 70
build railroad from the coal fields
to the coast, aud put its surveyors
into the field to laying out the ronte.
that the promoters Of the old Three
C's Railroad got busy and state that
they will now be able to carry out
their original plans. The travelling
man said that at all events they had
hurried surveyors into the coveted
territory, and seem determined TO
either block the plan Of the Virginia
and Southeastern or get possession Of
the narrow places for their own line.
lie went on to say:
"The people living along the pro-
posed route seem undistrrbed and
say it is 10 new thing tor them to be
told that the Three C's will be built
at once aud that they will believe e
when they see the track laid and not
before.
They do not seem to know exact
ly what TO think Of the action on the
part Of the Virginia and Southeastern
is being currently reported that the
Kockefelleys and other multi-miilion =
aires are backing the scheme. One
thing is certain, the Virginia and

It is reported that deal is on whereby
he will be traded to the Minneapolis

Bailey, Catcher Leslie and second base
man.
It is also suspected that Van Praagh is
to get piece of money to boot. The re-
port is so we'll substantiated that it is &C
cepted here as fact, and the fans are
surprised and little bit discouraged
They have been proud Of the team, and
the trading off Of OLeary will dampen
their ardor some. Maybe Van Praagh may
yet back out if he has not gone too far
with the deal.
