s. & W. TO CHANGE ROUTE.
A Company Has Been Organized to Enable
This to be Done.

The South & Western Railroad Com
pany OF Sullivan county has been char
tered by the state, with fiv Knoxville
men named as incorporators and cap
ital stock Of $40, 900. The incorporation
are @. NJ. McOlung, J. E. Briscoe, F.
E. Lowe, d. G. Chapman and J. s.
Webster, Jr.
This newly-organized company rep.
resents the South g. Western Railway
Company, and was organized for the
purpose of enabling the South & West
ern line between Erwin and johnson
City, distance of about twenty miles,
to be changed. The laws of Tennessee
require that charter be issued to
cover change in the already chartered
line of railroad, and it is in compli.
ance with this that the South & Western
Railroad Company was organized. The
present incorpOrators were procured
because the officials of the South &
Western Railway. reside on the Virgin
ia side of Bristol. The present company
was organized by j. s. Webster, Jr.,
who was interested in the matter by his
brother-in-law, H. G. Morrison of Bris-
toll, assistant general counsel of the
South & Western Railway.
The South & Western Railway will
also probably change the line between
Sinking Greek, in Washington county,
and point in Sullivan county on the
Tennessee-V Virginia line, and to permit
this a company known as the Kingsport
Southern Railway has been chartered.
This company also hvs a capital stock
of $4,000. The incorporators are J. @.
Anderson, J. A. Dickey, A. P. Moore,
A. B. Whitaker and D. b. Mullsns, all
of Bristol, Knoxville Sentinel.

A, Taylor, candidate for congress in
the First district against Congressman
W. P. Brownlow, spoke to a large au-
dience here yesterday, being variously
estimated at from 800 to 900 people.
He spoke for nearly two hours and was
frequently applauded, indicating that
many of his sentiments were endorsed

for his own election to congress, spoke
strongly against "bossism, " and made
spirited plea for purity of the ballot.

pected that he will make other speeches

W. ]. Exum Rides Rapidly.

W. ]. Exum's good old family horse
got gay Wednesday while taking its
owner to dinner and took a notion to
lead fast life for moment. It darted
away down Division street between
Market street and the tannery and Mr..
Exum could not stop it until he
threw him with tight rein at the foot
of the hill. When the horse stopped
Col. Exum went on-and that is what
has caused him more or less pain ever
since. His friends are pleased to know
he was not seriously injured and is do
ing nicely. OF course the colonel did
not know this good old horse was load
ed-with wild oats.

Meeting Place.
Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, May 19.--After the matter
having been fought out in the commit
tee room, resolutions favoring the con-
soiidation of the Methodists, United
Brethren and Congregationalists were
unanimously adopted by the Iowa AS
sociation of Congregationalists, at its
meeting here.
The resolution was worded as fol-
lows:
"Whereas, the United Brethren in
Christ, the Methodist Protestant and
the Congregational churches at the
recent joint council held at Dayton,
| Ohio, have proposed basis of or
ganic union OF these denominations,
therefore,
| BE it Resolved: L.. That the Cen
eral Congregational Association OF
Iowa welcome all wise efforts looking
toward church unity.
20. That we recognize the spirit OF
harmony and Christian fellowship
which prevailed turnout the session of
the Dayton council as the most en-
couraging feature of the movement.
20. That we rejoice in the hearty
adoption Of the Dayton council of a
definite basis of union, that we COM
mend this basis to our churches for
considerations recognizing that many
details may yet be materially modl-
fed but believing that the spirit of
z r, nd N
us to the perfecting of this organic
union.
~. That we appoint special COM
mittee of three on church union TO
bring the gospel as far as possible
to the attention of our church and to
prepare for the association at it's next
T! meeting memorial on the subject to
| be presented to the next biennial
| council"
! The most sensational feature of the
! Congregational church convention OF
| Iowa held here during the week, was
! this question of consolidation. Ihe
| presentation of the matter brought
forth animated discussion and many
/ of the delegates fought the union de-
terninedly, but the majority were IN
1 favor of the union and, after much
! discussing; the opposing faction was
won over
The passing of the same, means that
| the state convention is with the
| movement, and will bring the voice of
/ Iowa Congregationalists to the nation
al conference later, when the ques-
ton will come up for discussion and
| settlement. Should the union be per-
fected, of which there is every proof
now. the denomination will be one of
! the strongest in the entire country.
| Grinnell was chosen as the place of
next meeting, on the third Tuesday in
| May.
