FITzHuoH NOW PRESIDENT.
Succeeds Hays at Head Of Central Ver-
mont Road-Has Full charge Of Grand
Trunk Lines In New ENGLAND.

Trunk Lines In New England.
The directors OF the Central Vermont
Railway company met in st. Adams Fri
day and elected E. II. Fitzhugh president
to succeed Charles M Hays, resigned.
Mr.. Fitzhugh is first vice president of the
Grand Trunk railway The president of
the Grand Trunk was elected chairman
OF the board OF directors. Mr.. Fitzhugh,
who is considered to be one of Americas
greatest railroad men, is president of the
Southern New England road, which Is
building from Palmer to Providence. His
election as president OF the Central YER
mont makes him tho supreme head of
the Grand Trunk lines in New England.
That there Is need of an official of
the highest calibre to look after the In
terests OF the Grand Trunk in New
England is now well known since the
moves in the So called war between the
New Haven and Grand Trunk have been
chronicled in the public press almost
daily for many months. Mr.. Fftzhugh
has been taking a leading part in this
war, but is now in full charge OF the
situation in New England. His attention
probably will be directed at once to a
situation in Burlington that has just be-
come known to the public at large. A
hearing was held in Burlington July 20
before the public service commission
proposed new union station for that city.
The New Haven was represented by
General Manager Jarvis OF the Rutland
railroad and his attorney, and the Grand
Trunk by Vice President F1tzhugh and
General Assistant Cy Warman and Gen
eral Manager G.. c. Jones of the Central
Vermont, with attorneys. Plans for the
proposed stations were submitted by both
roads. after which the hearing was post
poned until Aug. 16.
1t was then reported that the Rutland
road was actually filing track location.

only. Moreover, the Central Vernon
owns about $780,, 900 worth of property OF
the street on which it is proposed t
built the union station, and which
would be unable to use If the Rutland
allowed to carry out its plans.
At the hearing Mr., F'itzhugh concede
the necessity for a union station in Bur
lington and offered to build, own an
operate with the Rutland road, but tn
latter railway insisted that it should nc
only dictate the location of the station
but should own and operate 1t, maxim

answer was that the Grand Trunk woul
