The material of the company now being used on the Catawba rivor bridge ns well as lliul being used on another bridge, bus bevn attached. The com|'Mny in seeking to have the attachment removed and to this end will carry the matter to the Federal court The impression prevails to some extent that cotton stored in mill warehouses is used by the companies, the latter hold ing themselves in readiness to pay for sanio at the market price whenever the owners decide to selh Col. Springs, president of the Lancaste; mills, authorizes us to state that thoro is 110 foundation whatever for such impression so fir as the mills in which he is interested uro concerned. Cotton stored in his warehouses is held in?trust for the owners, who can get same whenever .1. * t < i n - i iijpy want it. in mo nrsc place, sai \ Col Springs, ho would consider himself criminally liable " ere he to use stored cotton.? And. in tno second place, it would be poor business policy for a mill to make sales of its products for 'uturo delivery without knowing what it would have to pay for the raw mate ial. That would bo speculstioli of the rankest sort, and no mill could afford to engage in it. Those, therefore, who store cotton in the Lancaster mills mav rest, as sured that it is being safely Kept for them, nnd that they can get their staple whenever they call for it.?Review. X?

I ho following special l'rom lancastor to the News ami ('oura voices our sentiment, ami, we link, the bOhiimcut of all who live the business interests of thiimmunity at heart: This section is greatly interist1 in the proposed extensi n by ic Southern Railway of tlio old hroo C's from Marion, N C , to 10 coul fields of Tennessee, about liicb so much bus been recently . iid in the daily paper.-. It is, no j oubt true, as has been stated, liat the Southern now has a corps f engineers at woikx locating a tie through the mountains of 'enuossec, but it is not thought ere that such work, for the presnt at least, will extend beyond preli miliary survey, for tie cry good reason that the South rn cannot reasonably bo expoetil to embark iu such u ijiojtixitic ndortnking as the extension 1 f one or its lire.s through ill.out no hundrod miles of mountainus country when its title to that ne is being seriously contested 1 the courts ? contested, too, by in St aloof South Carolina, whose legislature sanctioned the pur** base of said line. Your correspondent lias it oni excellent authority that the oulhotn will not only build the roposed extension, but will make nst iniprovoments along the or.-! re length of the old Three C's, j educing the grades, realigning I le turves, substituting now estlos and bridges for old ones, uilding new depots at Lancaster | ml other points where needed, uttmg on new rolling stock, etc, rovided tho celebrated merger nit is decided in its favor. Tho sentiment in tYn section is I trongly with tho Southern in bis matter, for it is realized' that E the courts decide adversely to , Is interests, and tho Three C's in onsequeneo has to he operated us ; n independent line, if at all, its J ervice will likely ho anything ut satisfactory to the public. If tho Southern, under the law 8 to bo construed by the courts, an not own and operate tie 'hrco C's, what system in South Carolina can do it { Ccrtainl ' ot tho Seaboard nor the Const iiue, for the sime alleged cms titutional objection applies to ithef* of lliose systems as well n* n Iho Southern. . It, tliercrore, it is hold that the iouthern must surrender tho oad, il will nutumil> revert hack o the original owners, on whose iimds it will unquestionably ho , veritable elephant. Judging by ho road's operation in the \gist us n independent lino no good result :an bo hoped for from similar nnnngement in the future. Ileocc he hope, entertained hero at east, that the Southern may pro ,'ail in the present suit and lie ul owed to mako the various imiroveinents it has in view. jFor The Ledger.
