refuse and surplus unused stock of
every sort that remains from the last
season.
Everything from bottles of ink to
fence posts. stationery to picked-up
coupling pins. along the right of way,
bolts, wooden work leftover paint,

put back in the new stock, which will
then be distributed for the ensuing
year.
This great summer housekeeping
effects an annual saving for the Mil

REVERTS TO OWNERS.
Illinois Central Abandons Entrance to
Nashville.

Memphis, Tenn. June 23.-The Illi-
nois Central, it is learned. has decided
not to exercise it's July L option on a
controlling interest in the Tennessee
Central and on that date it gives up
it's option of this line over which the
Illinois Central reaches Nashville. The
Southern railway which, along with
the Illinois Central, has an interest in
this option will not exercise its right
as made known sometime ago, so that
on July l control of the Tennessee
central will revert to the former own
ers. chiefly st. Louis people.
This means the abandonment by the
Illinois Central of line under it's own
control into Nashville. It-is said that
the line to Nashville had been
operated at a loss. The Tennessee
Central runs from the Kentucky line
to Nashville and thence by way of
Lebanon and Cookeville through the
Cumberland mountains to Hartman.
At the Hartman terminus a connec-
ton is made with a branch line of
the Southern railway to Knoxville and
with the Cincinnati Southern railway,
which is part of the Queen & Cres-
cent system.
