Comparative Treatment Of
Tive Historic EnGlnes

Atlanta July S.-The Texas" the
historic war locomotive which chased
and captured the "Generar' after that
engine had been seized at Big Shanty
by the Andrews raiders, lies rusting
and rotting away on a sidetrack in the
Western and Atlantic Railroad yards
here where it has stood for two years
after having been made free gift
to the state or such patriotic societies
as might desire to take charge OF it
and preserve it.
The Nashville. Chattanooga and St
Louis at first wanted something like
$500 fort it's value as scrap iron.
Then a whole lot Of sentimental stor-
les about il appeared in the news
papers and the railroad company final
ly decided to make a free gift of II
to the state.
This it did and brought it here from
Emerson and put it upon a sidetrack
where it has remained ever since. The
gift Of the engine seems to have
brought an end to the sentiment. and
to this good day nothing has been
done looking to the proper care and
preservation Of 1t.

action might be taken with regard to

have suffered a cold douche soon
as the railroad gave il away, thereby
making the opportunity for doing
something with it.
Probably the conclusion will be
reached at this session of the Legis-
Iature, il the subject is mentioned at

such shape as not to warrant any eX-
penditure for such purpose. Then
it will go over until next year. prob

But IL the old engine is to be pre-
served, something will have to be done
about II pretty soon.
