CAIRO & THEBES WILL CROSS

vile & Nashville Behind The Cairo En-
terprise Seeking Outlet to Southwest

There seems to be little doubt il
the minds Of men woll-postel in raiI
road matters that the Cairo {
Thebes, Or perhars more CORRECTLY
speaking, the louisville & Nashville
railroad, will he allowed to cross the
Thehes bridge This opinion II based
upon the pnquestionahe legal right et
Tho road q csoss this bridge The
only question at issue about viii h
there may be any doubt relates to the
manner or place Of connection with
the bridge tracks and this viii be
I ecided by tle Illinois board of ra l.
road and warehouse COMMISSIONS
I AS stated in The Bulletins Spring
field special several days ago the con.
testing companies raised the ques
zion OF jurisdiction, claiming that the
Illinois Board had no right 60 pass up
ION the matter OF connee ion with an
interstate bridge The board set this
question aside at the time aad has set
q date to hear arguments on the prop
osition. But his is not believed to
present a serious obstacle.
The only question to be d.
cided apparently. is whether the L.
& n shall Join the bridge tracks
where it seeks 10 make connection Or
shall make Il whore the contestlne
railroads want It to eonnect In The |
former case ii IL contended that the |
connection would be too close to the
bridge. and In the latter that the con-.
aection would be difficult ana dan
serous If bo,h contentious be true /
il is believed the comission will desie-
nate some other place or manner of
making ii. but no one seems to be.
ieye that the new road will be denied
