Expenditure OF SIC. 1000. boo Along
Its System.
Especial TO The MESSENGER

Raleigh. y. G, April 9.-President
Garrett, General Manager Whittlesey
and General Superintendent Hix and
General counsel Watts, OF the Sea-
board Air Line had a conference with
the corporation commission here this
afternoon. The first matter discuss
ed was the order OF the line between
Hamlec M Wilmington To be put in
first class condition by September.
The railway officials said the order
would be fully obeyed but that the
work could not be done within the
time specified. 1t is estimated TO cost
a least half a million dollars. They
old the commission they would ex-
pend $150,0 900 to 5000, 900 on terminals
at Wilmington, and $50. 900 at Char
lotte.
The other matter discussed was the
order regulating the shorIing OF hours
OF labor Of train crews effective
July 1st. 1t was stated that this too
would be Obeyed. 1t may conflict
somewhat with a law enacted by con-
sress effective next March. The va
r1ous divisions of the road. will have
to be increased in number TO shorten
the runs.
The work to be done at Wilmington
is exclusive Of that On the union pas
senger station and will embrace
changes in freight yards, and whar-
YES. The company lately bought
property adjoining the freight yards
now in use, paying s65, 900 for it, and
considers it as desirable as any in
Wilmington. President Garrett told
the corporation commission that lay
ing Of heavy rails between Hamlet
and Wilmington would begin in Il ;
fortnight, His company has closed
contracts involving expenditure Of
tweiv millions along its system.

Conference Between Central American

Washington, April 9.-A day of
conference between the Central Amer

no marked results. Having decipher-
ed the cable response from his own

mitted to him yesterday by the rep
resentatives Of Salvador and Guate-
mala Senior Corea the Nicaraguan
minister called today upon Senior
Creel. the Mexican ambassador who
has been taking the part of mediator
and acquainted him with President
Zelayas' answer. This made neces-
sary further conferences which fact
vas taken as an indication that the
N~icaragIan response was in the ma
ture Of a counter proposition. There
fore MeSsrs. Corea and Creel reaired
to the state department to confer with
Secretary Root and Assistant Secre-
tary Bacon. This conference also adj
vanced matters only so far as to pave
the way for another conference
which was held late in the afternoon
between Messrs. Creel, C0rea, and
Hermarte and Mehias the latter two
representing Guatemala and Saliva
dor respectively. It is believed by
some parties to these conferences
that owing to necessity of consulting
their home countries at every stage
immediate satisfactory results can
not be executed.

several theatrical ventures. was ar
rested as a suspect. He made a COnfeS-
sion to the police in which he imDli-
Gated Leopold. He admitted having
