ARE COMING q ack TO AMERlcus
Surveyors of Western & Cult Coming
This Way.

Having completed the first line of
survey, Americas to Hawkinsville, for
the Western & Gulf road, Engineer G.
ID. Allen and his surveying corps of
ten men are already upon the return
trip to Amerlcus and will probably
reach this city about the latter part of
next week, 18th.
The corps left HawkinsvilIs on Thurs
day morning, and already are well upon
the way here.
Messrs. Crawford Wheatley and d.
NJ. Borum, who among others here are
interested in the construction of the
Western & Gulf Railway, returned yes
terday from a trip to Hawkinsville.
While there they conferred at length
with Mayor Loveioy, Hon. Pope Brown
and other prominent citizens of Pulaski
county, and were again assured of the
hearty and enthusiastic cooperation OF
the people of that city and country in
the construction of the railroad.
They are exceedingly anxious for it,,
realizing the immense advantages ac-
cruing to their city and section through
this great enterprise.
Their good will, cooperation and dol
lars are alike rendered.
Consultation was likewise held at
HawkinsvilIe with Engineer Allen, OF
the surveying corps, and examination
made of the route just completed. This
was from Americas by way of Vienna.
1t is a most feasible route and travers-
es an unusually fine section.
Engineer Allen is returning to Amer
icus by another route, taking in Una
dilla, which is ten miles north of Wen
Ma. This, too, is through fine coun-
try. The two routes will be of equal
length, and the directors will determine
their respective advantages.
Upon the whole, the outlook for the
Western & Gulf is most encouraging,
and means much for Americas.

BLOCKED WITH FREIGHT TRAINS
Heavy Traffic is Again Cause o'
Delays.

Those inclined cussetically again
have the railroads as objects of their
wrath and high flown profanity on ac-
count of delayed trains. This is par
ticularly true of the Central, where
freight traffic Oftimes blocks out the
mail trains which otherwise might pull
through on time. During the HOLIDAYS
the trains made fairly good schedules,
but since then have gotten badly out OF
whack. The morning mail train from
Atlanta reached Americas Yesterday
nearly three hours late, while the night
trains are almost always from one to
two hours shy of the schedule. Just
now the freight business is heavy, and
the freight trains oftimes block the way
of other trains on single track.

BOTH ADVANCING ON AMERIcus
Two Corps OF Engineers Coming
This Way Now.

The surveying corps of the Macon,
Albany and Americas electric railway
established camp Friday short dis
lance north of Albany, and will inn
mediately carry forward the work of
marking a route for that line. 7. p.
Stanley is in charge of the party, and
Chief Engineer Gaillard will direct the
survey. The party which starts from
Albany will meet the party headed
southwark from Macon about midway
between the two points. The road will
touch Americas, Montezuma, Fort
Valley and a number of other points,
passing through the fruit belt, and q
good deal of the territory now remote
from railroads. There are fifteen per-
sons in Mr. Stanley's surveying party,
and they expect to make rapid prog
ress, having no serious natural OBJ
stacles to overcome.
