Considerable surprise has been man. :
tested 10 rsil,oad circles 10 Virginia by
the resignation Ct Judge Wollam j.
Leake az presid nj Of The Richmond,
Fredericksburg and Po'On ac snd the
Washinet.I Southern BNiroads. The
resignation is to become effective Novem'
Der 10, wheO meeting OF ihe directors
of the roads will he Lelf Il is under
stood that Judge Leake will leaume the
practice OF low. The selection Of the
successor to President Lake rests en-
tirely in The hands Of the officials OF the
Pennsylsauia Railroad. The Pennsyl-
vania Railroad controls the sock OF the
road through the Richmond-W Washington
road. which is the hol Ling company
of the Richmond. Fredericksburg and
Potomsc and the Washirgtoa-S0uihen,
and Of which Vice President Raea, OF
Pennsylvauia, is president. Tne Rich
mopG- Washington company Is own d
jointly by the Pebuayisauia, The Coesa-
peaka aud Ohir. the Baltimore and
Ohi,, the Norflk and Western, the
Seaboard Air Lac and the Atlantic
Coast Line, each owning oue.sixlh of
the sock. The Pennsylvania controls,
therefore, two-tbirds ofthe stock and can
dicia The election Of oilicers.
There was tax 10 local railroad circles
in r chmond yesterday to the effect that
the Pennsylvania Railroad intends merg-
ing the presidency of the Richmond,
Fredericksburg and Potomac and the
Washington Southern with that Of the
Chesapeake aud Ohio and have President
Stevens, of the Chesapeake and Ohio, a
Pennsylcanis official, in charge of both.
From this source it is learned that the
two offices can be taken care of by one
PenDsy lsania representative and in that
way reduce the operating expenses of all
the Pennsylvania lines concerned.
The State of Virginia ia large stock
holder in the Richmond. Fredericksburg
and Potomac road and has representa-
tive on the board Of directors. 1t is
thought that common prudeoce will in
auce the Pennsylvania to name some
man agreeable to this representative aud
not Objectionable to the State at large.
Both the Richmond, Fredericksburg and
Potomac and the Washington Southern
have important matters to get through
the State Legislature, and it will, there
fore, be necessary to select as president
man who will be able to further these
plans.

FROM HON. S. r. CHRISTIE.
Declares Mr.. Howell's Speech Monday
One of Greatest He Ever Heard.

Voter of Terrell county, if you heard
Clark Howell's speech delivered in
the court house Monday [ am sure
you feel very kindly toward him, and
that you are forced to the conclusion
that every word he spoke came from
an honest heart. If unfortunately
you did not hear him you missed
hearing one of the greatest speeches
ever delivered in your county, and an
opportunity to weigh the men and
measures connected with this cam
paign, which in justice to yourself
and to the interest of your state you
should have. | have no more interest
in the candidacy Of Mr., Howell than
| think you ought to have, but be-
lieving, as | do, that there are enough
known facts contained in this one
speech to elect him governor | will
undertake at my own expense to put
it into the hands of any man who did
not hear it but would like to know the
truth. If you want copy OF the
speech ask me for it,.
/ have known MIR Howell for 8 good
many years, and during some of these
wears my association with him has
been of such nature as to reveal to
me his character in all OF its aspects,
and [ don't think that [ could pay
him a higher compliment than to say
that he is one of the most manly men
it has ever been my good fortune to
know. [ believe that he will be our
next governor, and we will all be
proud of him as such,
S. r, CHRISTIE.

1FBRELL VOTERS HEAR HON. CLARK HOWELL
.arnatorial Candidate Spoke to Several Hundred Peo
ME Monday. Was Given an Attentive Hearing
and Made a Fine Impression

don't believe them, and they will nut
their stamp of disapprOval on them
when they go to the polls in the com
ing primary"
Mr.. Howell's tribute to Conoress-
man j. M. Griggs, whose home is
mere, was likewise we'll received.
After Congressman Griggs' hard and
persistent fight as chairman of the
congressional campaign committe he
sald he believed it was as little as
could be done in return for his efforts
TO send him as delegate from Geor-
gla at large to the democratic nation
al convention at ST. Louis. Believing
this Mr.. Howell took firm and posi-
tive stand for him, and one of the
penalties ne is paying for that action
today is the opposition of many of
those who did their utmost to defeat
Judge Griggs for this position.
He closed with brief allusion to
his own political career, and chal-
lenged anyone to put his finger upon
one single vote in his career of eli gh-
teen years that was not in the interest
OF the people of Georgia.
Mr.. Howell was in his happiest
mood, and held out the olive branch
of peace right from the start. The ap-
plause was frequent and enthusiastic,
and his audience laughed at his sharp
est thrusts. Those who though the was
not a good stump speaker had their
eyes opened. He made one of the most
forceful political addresses that was
ever delivered here, and his speech
had a ring of sincerity and honestly
about it that impressed everyone
strict and undivided attention of his
audience for an hour and a half, and
it is generally conceded that he
strengthened his cause.
Mr.. Howell left on the o'clock
train for Shellman, where he spoke
that afternoon. From there he went
to Cuthbert, and spoke Tuesday morn
ING.
