SUPT. MOTIVE POWER

Mr. Sanderson to Go With the Virginian Railway

The Norfolk Virginian-Pilot of yesterday contained the following,
which is of considerable interest in this city, where Mr. Sanderson
once lived, being connected with the N. & W., and where he has
relatives and friends who are interested in his success:
"Official announcement was made yesterday from the general
manager's office of the Virginia railway that R. P. C. Sanderson,
superintendent of motive power of the Seaboard Air Line, will accept
a similar position with the Virginian, entering upon his new duties
September 1, with offices in this city. It was stated at the office
of the general manager of the S. A. L. yesterday afternoon that no
successor to Superintendent Sanderson had been picked out. The office
of the superintendent of motive power of the S. A. L. pays the
handsome salary of $5,000 a year."
