was rewarded with another run that tied
up the score to the glad acclaim of the
spectators Pickering worked Walsh for

to Tannehill. Street then drove a hard
single into left. which Hahn fumbled for
a second. and Pickering kept on to third.

but Ote missed the ball and Pickering
was an easy out. Sullivan to Tannehill.
Clymer then laced a beautiful single into
right. on which Street galloped all the
way to third. Clymer then made bluf
steal of second to draw throw, and it
was successful, as Parent threw away
over Sullivan's head and Street had an
easy time scoring.

HETTY GREEN'S
LOANS DENIED
Alleged Interview Involves
Rich Men.

NEW YORK. Feb. 19.-(SpeciaD-
Denials were made on all sides yes

view in which Mrs. Hetty Green said
in Boston that in the recent financial
furry she loaned $1,000,000 to Harry
Payne Whitney; had also lent money
to the New York Central Railroad
Company, and had refused to accept
the Vanderbilt jewels as security for
still another loan.
Mr.. Whitney gave out this signed
statement:
Mrs Hetty Green is a very old
lady and must be suffering from de-
lusions. l have never met her or seen
her or had any financial transactions
with her whatever"
On behalf of the New York Central,
Vice President Edward V. w. Rossiter
of that company said:
Neither the New York Central Rail-
road nor any member of the Wander
bilt family, so far as l know, ever
had any financial dealings with Mrs
Green, either to borrow money from
her or to lend it to her. [ think Mrs.
Green must have been misQuoted"
William Edgar Sheppard, brother
in-law of Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt,

that on its face it was "preposterOus. +"

TRAINS ON CENTRAL TO
STOP AT AMERICUS
Terminal Point for Atlanta
Night Train.

Americus Will be made the termi-
| nal point of Central Railway passen-
ger train No. Z operated now between
Atlanta, Macon and Albany, if the
Railroad Commission, which is now
considering such petition of the COM
pany, gives permission.
This is the through train which
leaves Atlanta at 4 p. m. and arrives
in Americus at 10. 40 and in Albany
at midnight
Between Atlanta and .Americus the
train is an important one, but be-
yond this point it carries few passen-
gers, not enough, officials of the road
say, to warrant the expense
Concerning the proposed change the
Albany Herald has the following:
The railroad bases it proposed &C
tion on the fact that the train which
it is desired to discontinue is operated
at a considerable loss. There are at
present operated daily three trains
each way on that portion of the road
beween Albany and Americus
Patronage on the night train has for
a long time been falling off 1t leaves
Albany at an "unearthly hour-3 Is
a. m, and arrives five minutes before
midnight
Parties coming from Atlanta to AL
bany can leave the former city on the
all-night train, which carries a sleep
er, and reach Albany at 7:15 a. m.
The Albany sleeper is largely patron
lied
Returning, the train with the sleep
er leaves Albany at p. m. and
reaches Atlanta early the following
morning.
The other train between Atlanta and
Albany leaves the former city about
s a. m. and reaches Albany at 3: 80 p.
m. Returning, it leaves Albany at
1910 p. m and reaches Atlanta in
the early evening.
Because of their convenience these
trains are generally patronized, and
it not infrequently happens that the
train which it is now proposed to dis
continue reaches this city without a
single passenger in the first class
coach.
North of Americus, the patronage of
this train is better. 1t reaches Amer
icus considerably more than an hour
earlier at night on the down trip, and
parties boarding it in that city are not
required to leave their beds in the
middle of the night.
Officials of the Central road have re-
Gently had maintained a record of the
earnings and cost of operation of
the train in question, and it has been
shown to fall far short of earning, be-
tween Albany and Americus, the ac-
tual cost of operation.
