Railroad Business in Tennessee |
The Chattanooga
Advertiser says the Railroads diverging from that point are
probably doing the heaviest freight business they have ever done since
their completion. The flow of provisions and live stock from the
Northwest to the South is really astonishing. The Nashville &
Chattanooga and the Western & Atlantic Railroads are now taxed to their
entire capacity in transporting supplies for Southern consumption. Not
less than 75 loaded cars pass over the roads daily. |
