DRIVEN FROM TOWN
CATHOLIC BISHOP AND PRIESTS
TREATED TO INDIGNITIEs.

Ulysses. Neb.. June 1S.--Right Rev.

AIN IMPORTANT LINK
HARRAHAN TALKS OF
GEORGIA CENTRAL


Chicago, June fs.--The Central of
Georgia Is to be made very impor-
tant link in the Illinois Central Rail
road system according to President
i. 7. Harrahan. who returned from
the East last night.
The cause for the purchase Of the
road is to be found in the fact that
the development of the South has
been so rapid Of late years that the
Illinois Central desires to place itself
In a commanding position with respect
to rates and traffic Mr.. Harrahan
stated that there was TO be no imme-
date change in the management OF the
Central. Of Georgia which would con-
tinue for the present at least to- be
operated under a separate management.
I'm actual condition OF traffic and
operation he said. there Is to be no
HGhanRe. Our road has always sus-
tanned close frasac relations with the
Central nf G~or Kta ard has through
train service In connection with that
road. That road gives us an outlet
to the seahoard and places us In a po-
sftion to keep in the forerank with re-
spect to southeastern traffic. In time
there will be a great improvement in
the through freight and passenger
service between the Middle West and
the large centers of the Southeast"
The acquisition of the road by the
Illinois Central bids fair to have an
important effect upon the business re-
Iations between Chicago and the mar
kets of the southeast. The Illinois
Central is now In position to dictate
freight rates to and from the southt-
eastern markets and to place Chicago
n a parity with the Eastern manufae-.
turing centers with respect to business
to the Southeast.
