Tidewater in 1907 -- To be finished

Tidewater to be Finished by this Time Next Year
------
    We can state most positively, says the Coal Trade Journal, that neither H. H. Rogers nor the Virginian Railroad Company have any interest in coal lands, other than the Loup Creek estate, in which Mr. Rogers acquired an interest during the life time of the late Abram S. Hewitt, and before the Tidewater Railway was conceived.  Mr. Rogers has about completed arrangements to part with this interest as he does not wish to be connected with any coal operations along his line of railway.  This line of road will be fully built, equipped, and coal will pass over it to the piers at Sewell's Point, the finest harbor in the world, by this time next year.  It is a grand operation from start to finish, as the seaboard coal trade will find out.
