PLAN COLUMBUS
DIVISION CHANGE
Central of Georgia Proposes New
Mixed Freight Schedule To
Speed Up Service

A change of schedule on the mixed
freight and passenger train now run
ming daily between Americus and Co
lumbus, whereby one day would be
gained in the delivery Of fast freight
from Chicago and intermediate
points, without the sacrificing of any
passenger service, is proposed by the
Central of Georgia. A group of Of
ficials was in Americus yesterday dis
,ussing the proposal with local ship
pers and business interests and no.
where, they reported, did they find
anything but approval of the plan.
The officials in the party were c.
Baldwin, superintendent of the Co
umbus division; John w. Blount, of
Savannah, assistant general passeng.
ar agent; S. G. Harris, of Columbus
district passenger, agentI and Tom
Wade, of Columbus, division freight
agent.
At present this mixed train leaves
Columbus at Gas a. M, arriving in
Americus at H. a. IN. and leaves
Americus at 2 80 p. M, reaching Co
lumbus at 7:15 p. m. 1t is now pro-
posed to have the train leave Colum-
bus at 1880 a. m. as through
freight instead Of local, stopping
only to pick up passengers. arriving
here at l as p. m. and leave Ameri-
Gus as local at 4 p. m. reaching
Columbus at s as p. m.
The advantage of the change was
put by Mr.. Baldwin, who said:
We have a fast freight arriving
from Chicago every morning at 9:30
o'clock. Shipments for Americus ar
Giving on this train cannot be deliv-
red at present until the next day.
Under the proposed change, the 1O:oU
rain would make connection with
his fast freight, bringing shipments
Tor Americus in for delivery on the
same day as they arrived in Colum-
Gus. Dealers who handle perishables
will appreciate especially the value
)f this service"
As IL eIlectS passenger traffic i'll
and out of Americus, it is pointed
out that while shoppers coming here
would have an hour and Is minutes
less time to remain here under the
proposed plan, that the time would
all fall in the afternoon, without the
dinner hour intervening as at pres
ent, permitting sufficient time foi
shopping, and enabling people as fal
away as Buena Vista or farther t.
lose only half day from their busi
ness In making the trip here and re
turning for supper
The officials are sounding ou
sentiment and, if the plan prove.
generally as agreeable as it now an
pears, application will be made short
ly to the state railroad commission
1or permission To make the change.

sponded promptly to the call of their

she has furnished able men, who have
done their part in making history.
During the Confederate war,
Southwest Georgia was the granary
of the Confederacy and Sumter coun-

record. Sumter county was the lead

of the county the same advantages
for higher education that the people
of Americus are giving to their

arguments offered for new trial
by A. l.. King, attorney for Bigham,
was that the people had preconceived
