grounds.
Recently the captain had a severe
attack of illness, which prevents his
walking over the vast area coz cred by
the fair grounds and necessity de-
mands that he be almost, everywhere

the time of their visit Mr.. Earling, Mr..
Yoalkum and Mr.. Rockefeller We're ex-
tremely retieent. They asserted that
nothing of any consequence brought
them here and they were merely looking
oyer general conditions.
President Earling, it Is said. was
asked TO take over the line by Mr.
Yoakum at the time of their Trip here
and it was for that purpose, it is said,
that he brought the railroaders
through this section The line was ac-
quired by the Frisco and the Louis
Vile and Nashville from the interest
which projected a line To Chicago. They
have completed the surveys through an
interesting and highly important sec
ton, providing thereby a new route
from here to New orleans by the FIR SEQ
for freight shipments and otherwise
opening up a stragetic railroad situa-
ton. The proposition appeared so good
to the Louisville and Nashville and the
Frisco that Mr.. Yoakum and Milton II.
Smith bought the line. 1t is said the
Frisco owns 81 per cent of the Lou s.
vile and Nashville, 49 per cent of the
stock under an agreement protecting
poln roads.

operated by A. D. Lightner. formerly
