fear expressed that the town would he re-
moved from It's present site TO the depot.
and an along said route your Committee
was met nc the several stations by large
numbers OF people, who earnestly ana Nu-
cirerousy requested and demanded mm''
diate.relef from the present unheara'Ie
situation imposed upon them, As innocent
sufferers on account of the Injunction IN
the Pontotoc case. They cried out against
burdcnsome and excessive freight charges
stating that in the majority of their shiI-
mentS their freight had to come over three
or four different railroads, and that IN
many instances the freight charges
amounted to the price OF the goods. They
further stated that it was almost impos'i
bic 10 get certain kinds of freight at any
price,
ON Monday morning your committee
proceeded TO investigate, first, the situr
ton and surroundings OF the site where
the old depot once stood, and found that
the sIme had been burned two or three
wears before. The distance from the
Court House to this old depot ute, we es
timated to be about quarter OF a mile
! 1t is situated in a narrow hollow, estimated
| bv your committee to be about fifty leel
below the level of the town and forty feet
below the level Of the new depot site, we
Judge from the steep decliyity and narrow
hollow that are exceeding poor facilities
| for the location OF railroad depot and
wards for trunk line. The road from the
old depot site to town is up an exceeding
y steep decliyIty.
Leaving the old depot site and going
along the route of the proposed extension
from the old depot site to the main line,
the Chairman Of your committee stated TO
crowd of not less than fifty Of the mos
prominent citizeus.of POntotoc, who were
accompanying your committee, that e de
sired them to take the Committee over and
along the most feasible route TO the main
line. You. Committee then followed the
lead Of these men by devious and circuit
tous route over distance Of from mile
and half to two miles, till we came to the
main line. We went along the survey made
by the railroad company encountering four
Mills, ranging from thirty to sixty feet in
heighth above the level of the Old depot
site and from hundred yards to mile in
width at poiAt on 4 level with the old
depot site, as nearly rs we could estimate
the same. After reaching the main line.
we came back up the tack, north to the
new DEPOT, On investigation OF the situa-
ton and surroundings of the new depot,
we found first class depot situated at q
distance of about three.fOurths of a mile
from the court house. Near the depot we
saw an oil mill on the new line, brick
plant.,two small business houses and sever.
al dwellings, we found the road to town
partially graded, the lowest point OF
which il where the old Harrow gnage line
crosses it and the steepest hill being the
one from the old line into town. In the
opinion Of your Committee. the new depot
site is far superior in every way for yards
aud general depot purposes, location of
factories and enterprises, to any that could
be constructe at the old depot site, even
v it'll the expenditure OF large snm Of
money.

To the Chairman OF the Committee on
Railrnnhk.-

To the Chairman OF the Committee on
Railroads.
Your subcommittee appointed to in
vestigate the railroad situation at Ponto-
toe, left Jackson on Saturday night at 10
O'Clock, for Newton; leaving Newton on
Sunday morning at 10 O'Clock on specia'
train. We spent the entire day on the
railroad. stopping at numerous points
along the route TO investigate the question
of freight changes depot locations and
their respective distances from the bust
ness portions Of the town.
Understanding beforehand that distance
from depot to town. drayNge charges and
danger Of removal OF town on acoonnt Of
the distance of the depot from the town,
were the chief points at issue in the case
Of the State against the NJ. j, tEK.C f, r.
in addition to the contract features, We
took particular pains to investigate these
several features. We found that the aver
age distance Of the depot from the bust
mesa part of town IN the several towns was
about half a mile. At PhiHdplphia we
iOnnd the distance OF the depot from town
to be about one quarter OF a mile, drayage
charges sixty cents ton. At Louisville
we found the distance from depot to town
to be about one half mile, with dfayage
charges 40 cents a ton. At Ackerman, we
found the distance from town to the NJ. J
Il X. G. depot to be three-fOurtbs OF mile
with dra'age charges fifty cshts a ton.
while the distance from the !. c depot
was about one hundred yards, and draw.
age charges forty cents ton. At Hous-
ton the distance appeared to be between
one half and three quarters Of mile, and
we were intOrme Il by reliable parties that
the distance from depot to town at Hous-
ton was exactly ninety yards shorter than
the distance from .the depot to town at
POntOtOc, drayage charges fifty cents a ton,
At no place along said line OF railway,
comprising one hundred and sixty miles
in length, did we find the drayage charges
from depot to town to be less than 'fortv
cents, nor more than sixty cents per ton.
We stopped at several places and found
conditions similar to those at the places
named, In none OF said places was any

GREAT BATTING

The greatest smuggling feat in the
history OF the game was that of Ed.
Delehanty, off Adonis Terry, on the
west side grounds in Chicago. The feat
Is historic, but there are so many In.
quiries concerning IL that 1t is worth
while giving the facts.
II was game between Philadelphia
and Chicago one afternoon in 1896.
Terry was pitching in rare form and,
In the language OF the game, he had
everything" The first time up Dele.
hanty cracked the ball high over the
right field fence, not far inside the
foul line-perhaps about forty feet.
The second time up he drove a liner
over short, Dahlen got his hands on
the balh but II tore through them and
rolled clear out to left field. The third
time up he lifted the ball over the
right field fence again, this time far
down in right center. The next time
lie drove the ball out to the club
houses In center for his third home
run. In the ninth inning he came up
again. LANCE played back between
the two club houses and the other
Outfielders retreated to the fences. De-
lehanty hit the ball straight to center.
II struck the top of one club house,
bounded to the top OF the other, and
rolled back up the field. and the big
fellow made the circuit again.
Yet Philadelphia got only eight hits
off Terry in the game, counting Del's
FIVE, and was beaten-eight to six.
