There is another piece of railroad con- struction now going forward in quiet way in south Mississippi, under the guise of tramroad construction, that is replete with vast possibilities. O. H. Broun. civil engineer, is making d survey for an extension of the Turner railroad, which is to be extended to intersect the Mobile. Jackson and Kansas City railroad, and to connect with the Denny road, which runs Up from Moss Point, Scranton and Pascagoula, the coming great port on the gulf coast in Mississippi The mills of the Turner company are at Vinegar Bend Tn Alabama, and are among the largest in that state Their road already runs over into Mississippi far beyond Leakes- vile. It is destined to cross the Mobile, Jackson and Kansas City at or near Lucedale. The completion of the connec- tion will be Of the first importance in many ways. It will give Pascagoula di- rect connection with the Mobile, Jackson and Kansas City, and the Mobile and Ohio. It will connect the two trunk lines mentioned, and it will give the lumber and naval stores manufacturers of south east Mississippi and western Alabama ac- cess direct to another port that has al ways held a commanding place in the lumber export trade. The Denny road reaches to within seven miles of the Mo- bile, Jackson and Kansas City at Dono- van, and is a substantially built road with S1-pound steel rails, steel bridges and all the other equipment of a perma- nent commercial railroad.
