Active.

Newport News, Sept. 2s.-Frank 8.
Cannon, president of the Newport
News and Washington Short Line
Railway Company, next Monday will
appear before the Norfolk Board of
Trade in an attempt to interest that
body in the road from this city to
Washington. Regarding the matter.
a news dispatch has the following to
say:
Mr.. Cannon Is expected to address
meeting at the Board of Trade next
Monday afternoon. When in Norfolk
a few days ago he accepted an in
vitation to discuss with business men
of this section his plans for the new
railroad. At the request of John A.
Lesner, president OF the Board Of
Trade, and Goodrich Hatton, of
Portsmouth, chairman of a commit
tee that is interested in securing a
Norfolk terminus for the company,
folk next week for a conference with
interests that would be glad to have
the railroad bridge the James River
and provide an all-rail route direct
from Norfolk to the capital city.
IF the Short Lines plan to bridge
the James and give a quick rail entry
to Norfolk meets with success, 1t is
believed in railroad circles here that
the Chesapeake and Ohio will follow
suit. Mr.. Cannon Is supported by
prominent railroad engineers in the
belief that the logical development
Of his scheme would entail construc-
ton of a trestle from a point near
Newport News to some point on this
side Of the James River, probably at
