The new terminals of the Illinois Central System at Memphis have been 

 opened within the past ten days and. accordlns to olhelala of that rood, 

 there Is an Increase of something like loo per cent In efflelency. The com- 

 pany has maintained large yards In New South Memphis for some time, but 

 the mileage has been sulistnntlally Increased. At the same time round- 

 houses and repair shops have been Installed capable of taking care of all 

 the repair work on the southern lines nf the system. The terminals cover 

 ;i.'>0 acres and the yards are big ennugh to care for a.s.'iO cars. Kmplny- 

 ment will be given to l..'>0» men. The Illinois Central System handles 

 a very large percentage of the lumber shippi-d Into and out of this city and 

 much congestion has been evident since the strike several years ago, espe- 

 cially during crop moving periods. I^umber men are therefore very much 

 pleased with the prospects of a much better service following the com- 

 pletion of these Improvements. 



The American Car and Foundry Compan.v, whose plant at Dlnghampton, 

 a suburb of Memphis, was burned a short time ago, has secured temporary 

 (juarters and Is employing all of the men at wflrk when the (Ire occurred, 

 from :iMO to .iuo. It Is announced that, as soon as the adjusters complete 

 their work, the plant will be rebuilt. This company Is engaged both In the 

 manufacture and repair of box and other freight cars and when working at 

 lull capacity gives employment to well over 1.000 men. 



The Uugger & Goshorn Company of this city has completed Its line nf 

 railway from Its mill at Warner. Ark., to its tlmberland holdings some dis- 

 tance away. It Is therefore Insured n full supply of timber and has re- 

 siiuied operations at Its big band mill. It now plans to run the latter 



doj 



veek. 



No decision as to Its plans has been announced by the Sunflower [.umber 

 ompnny regarding the rebuilding of Its mill at Clarksdale. Miss., destroyed 

 ly Hre n few days ago. The loss Is estimated to have been fully covered 

 .y Insurance. Tbi' mill was u bund .m.- .Tiid bad a dally capacity of about 

 ;ii.»iio i..et of lumber. ♦
