A VERT INSTRUCTIVE AND ABLE
LKCTUBE. .
We have read with much satisfac
tion the lecture delivered before the
Tariff Reform Club, of New York, a
few-nights since, by Mr. E. J. Don
nell. It is altogether unlike the nu
merous speeches made in and out of
Congress upon the same subject. We
had formed Mr. Donnell's acquaint
ance in a former discussion and be
cause of its clearness and force we
were induced to read his elaborate,
calm, able, lucid and compendious
presentation of economic science. It
is very thoughtful -too much so for
the masses and is profound and
original. It would make an excellent
tract for distribution among clnbs,
sooietiee, &c. To show the scope and
tb.orougb.ee8 of the lecture we will in
dicate the outline in part. He begins
with "What constitutes a science."
He next shows that social science is
based upon the constitution of the
human mind. They he considers that
commercial exchanges are the prima
ry law of economic science and shows
that there is an irrepressible conflict
betweeen commerce and militarism.
He next shows that political economy
is esBentiauy tne science or man.
This leads him to consider the eco
nomic origin of value and to argue
' that exchange ability is the origin of
wealth and creator of industry. He
says:
''No individual, no community, no nation
can do everything necessary to civilization
- in the best way. The individual who is
excluded from exchange of services with
"his fellow man sinks rapidly to the condi
tion of ths savage; the community so ex
cluded sinks to the condition of barbarism.
the nation so excluded, however extensive
its territory and varied its climate and pro
ductions, will, sooner or later, cease to Dro-
gress, or it will disintegrate from internal
voavuinons.
His historical illustrations along
this line are most instructive. He,
shows conclusively that history is
repeating itself in our country, and
he points to -great dangers ahead.
Read and reflect upon the following
"Within twenty-five years we have con
structed more than one hundred thousand
miles of railroads. In doinar thia wort w
have drawn from Europe a large part of
her surplus capital. Of course this involves
aneavy accumulation of debt. Thisun-
uuuoieaiy tempts us toward the well known
evils which always attend speculation With
. abundant credit. It also causes us to overea.!
umate our riches. Our debts we count as
wlalivnot SOT"M
thM!'?uninour . ' I
severely In our foreign chmg Tat Tno
tiistaui. ujr. u would be so felt now, but
that wo are still borrowing all we need, if
not all we ask for. The danger of the
situation is that it places us in some degree
at the mercy of Our creditors. 8o long as
Europe Is able and willing to lend to as.
all will go well. If Europe should either
need her capital at home or lose confidence;
in cur securities the consequences-might be
very serious. The excess of - our exports
over our imports of late years, notwith
standing our large borrowing, shows both
our heavy indebtedness and onr lack- of
profitable foreign traded' .- . ; ; :
He dwells at length upon the im
portance of : the present crisis, and
discusses carefully and philosophi
cally the scientific law of wages. In
the course of this part of ; his argu
ment he makes the following asser-
Hop, and coming irom so aoie ana
reputable an economist it is . well
worth attention. He says: 1
This much I can assert with perfect
confidence: Of the united product of eapt
inland labor. Hit vereentaae void to wage
earner in the United States is smaller than
in any country in Europe. f"
rnese iscis mate it iiwjiuuuj vuuuu
that production is the standard of wages."
He discusses the natural tendency
to division of labor, and the impor
tance of the scientific method. He is
impressive in won ne Bays oi me
great influence exerted upon coun
tries by commercial exchanges. The
following is at. least suggestive to
students of and writers, npon the
Tariff: r'1--; . " j -.
"In his enumeration of the causes that
influence wages and production, he omits
all mention of the all-powerful cause, com
mercial exchanges. They produce au capi
tal, create and stimulate all surplus pro
duction and pay all wages. ! This ia the
real wsge fund, not fixed and limited, but
an inexhaustible, living, t ever-flowing
fountain. Where commercial exchanges
are in healthy activity, capital is never
warning, but flows out, like arterial blood
from the heart, to all parts of ' the social
body. When economists understand this
truth as the one fundamental ; law govern
ing all economic phenomena, they. will
have a light to guide them tuem tnrougn
the whole field of economic studies. Then
their work will be luminous, consistent
and convincing." . j j
Mr. Donnell is argent in what he
says of the importance of the law of
action in sociology. His whole dis
cussion is singularly free from pas
sion and the partisan does not ap
pear only so far as the prosperity of
the country is affected by the atti
tude of parties. . He makes this
reference to the question of Tariff
reduction: 1
"That our present system of taxation is
outrageously unjust and unequal is cer
tain That the present position or the Re
publican party with regard to U is an open
defiance of science, experience and com
mon sense is obvious. How is it that a
party that entered our national politics by
helping to reduce -the lowest Tariff the
: Democratic party ever ventureu to propose
and pass a Tariff nearly 25 per cent, lower
than: $ht now in force has become the
pensioned agent of the most aggressive and
grasping monopolies known anywhere
since the French revolution? It is impor
tant to get a true answer to this question.
What has occurred once may occur again.
In 1860 the Democratic Low
Tariff was 19.67 npon an " average.
The-Republicans in 1861 reduced it
to 18.84. The present war Tariff is
1 47.10. This will explain the above
quoted paragraph. Thanks to Presi
dent Cleveland the Democratic party
is squarely committed to Tariff re-
jform to surplus reduction to a
I I 1
steady constitutional relief of ' the
greatly burdened tax payers. Thanks
to the stupidity of the j Republican
ileaders that party is committed to a
reactionary -and perilous coarse
that will finally destroy it. Whilst
every real leader of parts and influ
ence in the past, and many among
the living in the Republican party,
have favored Tariff Reform the party
now is committed to Higher Taxes
to an unconstitutional, oppressive,
absurd, unjust, immoral and iniqui
tous system. This makes the Demo
cratic party the party of the people
and the Republican party the party
of the Monopolists and Money-Kings.
We wish all reflecting, intelligent
men could read Mr. Donnell's clear
and profound lecture. They would
have a better understanding of eco
nomic science and would see more
distinctly the crashing and danger-!
ous tendencies of the Protective sys
tem. It naturally tends "to enslave
the massep," as Mr. Donnell says
and to crush out'the small proprie
tors. Monopoly is the deadly enemy
of genuine national - progress and
wealth. It creates Trusts and fos
ters a system that if maintained wil
reduce the farmers to poverty and
make the laboring classes paupers. '
Limit the market, (erect a high Chi
nese Wall, carry out the home mar
ket idea to its legitimate and logical
results, and ind ace induce all foreign
countries to pursue a like course and
the end mast be starvation' - wasres
and barren fields. Mr. Donnell savs:
' I have shown that when the denartment
of commercial exchanges is most active and
vigorous, ana us sphere oi activity most
extended, it communicates health and
vigor to all departments of productive in
dustry ; when it languishes or is obstructed,
disease sets in. When producers are wait
ing for demand, wage earners must wait
for employment; on the contrary, when de
mand seeks for commodities it will also
seek for workers. Therefore. I assert that
the supreme duty of statesmanship is to
use all the constitutional powers of the
government in clearing away obstructions
to freedom of exchange, whether they
spring from monopolies at home or lack of
me means or easy communication with all
countries, or obstructions raised by other
less enlightened governments. By these
means all social problems will be solved
and all beneficent work will be made easy
by the immense increase of surplus valne
everywhere."
Twenty-five of the members of the
Senate retire on the 4th ot March,
1889; Of these Wilson, of Iowa.
Walthall, of Mississippi, and Gibson,

It is thought to be almost certain
that the following Senators will" be

the Legislature, for which they are
making tremendous efforts. In Vir

is thought, although opposed. Cali

. THE NEW POLITICAL HOVEL.
We have read a few chapters, of
"Plutocracy," . the novel of "": Hon.
Thomas M. Norwood, of Georgia.
As far as Tead, there was notV so
much story as economical science.
One was reminded of Prinoe "-.Hal's
remark on examining FalstafTs reck
oning "Bat one half-penny worth
of bread to this intolerable deal of
saok." The purpose of the story is
political, and its opening chapters
as far as we read are a clever dis
cussion of the Tariff and how it
makes "Plutocrats" and paupers.
The first chapter has a graphic and
impressive . description something
after the manner of Dicke ns of a
snow-siorm in New. York city, with
an' application that is pointed and
felicitous. The book will be widely
read, we have no doubt. Mr. Nor
wood is one of the best wits in the
Congress, as well as one of the most
scholarly, sarcastic and well appoint
ed politicians. We have read some
of bis speeches with uncommon
pleasure and satisfaction. It is no
credit to ,the Georgians that they
did not renominate him for
the House. ' He did credit to him
self and to Georgia' when he was in
the Senate. He is an abler man than
Colquitt and a much more scholarly
man than Jo Brown. Georgia has
better men at home in Gordon, Nor
wood, Miller and Jackson than she
has in the Congress in either House.
So it looks to us.
Mr. Norwood's novel being politi
cal should be read at once. It bears
upon the pending . campaign. We
copy to-day a portion of a catechism
taken from the second chapter.' The
New York Commercial Advertiser
says of the story: 1
"The book was dashed off at railroad
speed at moments of leisure, in order to get
it before the public in time to tell in the
campaign, and on that account it lacks lit
erary finith. But its pages are brim full of
fun and philosophy, and it will make a
great stir.- Mr. Norwood is already well
known as one of the keenest wits in Con
gress, and this skit will extend his reputa
tion . immensely. The fun of the book is
uproarious, and its sharpest criticisms are
couched in a good humored extravagance
which makes them very entertaining. The
rich and great catch it without mercy,- and
the author makes a special drive against
protection as the worst demon of the whole
boodle of social pests. "
We read the opening chapters io
that able and excellent paper. We
omitted yesterday, in our discussion
of Mr. Donnell's masterly lecture, to
mention that it appeared in the
Commercial Advertiser, where we
read it.
COUNTY GOVERNInTEN T.
The white people of the Eastern
Counties are more interested inthe
question of County Governmentthan
they are in the question of a local or
State issue. In fact, County Gov
ernment is the most important State
issue now before the white men of
Eastern Carolina. While. Col.
Dockery, the Radical candidate for
Governor, is using his talents and
position to destroy County i Govern
ment, Judge Fowle, the Democratic
candidate, is doing what he canto
preserve it. No intelligent white
man, with a conscience, can afford to
vote for the overthrow of the present
system if be lives in the East, or if
be is even a Republican. The
Western white voters, especially the
Democrats, ought not to lend' them
selves to the destructive, mischiev
ous, demagogical tricks of the
rtaaicaip, woo nave snown since
1865,tht they were the open enemies
the decency and respectability of
the State. Tbe man who stands up
in tbe face of facts and advocates
the destruction of tbe County Gov
ernment system is an enemy to the
white tax-payer and no friend to
humanity. He is a destructive.
The present system is not anew
thing under the enn. It is as old as
our liberties. The people understand
it and like it. Under it they have
prospered, been happy, cultivated
their acres, met their duties- of citi
zenship and reared their families.
Under it they have found protection
from robbery and oppression. Bat
let us copy from the Democratic
Handbook:
"The North Carolina svstem U nnhstan-
tiaily the system of our forefathers. The
Can by system is the child of the Federal
bayonet. Naturally, the Democrats sup-
pon me rtonu uarouna system, and natu
rally, too, tne ifepublicans . support the
uanDy system.
"For 112 years, that is to say. from the
uay aono uaronna ceased to be a depend
ent province and became a free 8uta with
the exception of the ten years under Canby 's
vuusumuun, our county anairs were ad
miniaierea Dy magistrates.
"As soon as the white people of North
yaruuna ko uu power into their own
uouua agBiu, uey resiorea ineir old or
democratic system of electing m7;fltrt.
"s uuiuiusiuners, appointed ny tbe
magistrates, the management of county af
fairs. In old times the magistrates them
seives Biienuea to county affairs; now com
missioners appointed bv the muHatrt,o .t.
tend to them. That is t.h hnia Atrr. '
It pleased the people to order their affairs
to be administered in that way during all
the years before the Canby Constitution,
and it has pleased the people to have them
so administered since.
"But there is more reason for us to pre
serve the system than there was for our
forefathers to riant It far than ... v.
T. , - . TT IM IUCU
no Federal government to convert African
8 i " vnto Anwrioan freemen. If we had

tcijt uiuwent one. '
Let the County Government sys
tem be wiped out and it will be sure
ly a black day for North Carolina
We have ..had :i the . Canby bayonet
system and we know what negro su
premacy! means. . Are white - men
ready to abandon the old system ? .:

A called J meeting of the -Board of
Aldermen was held yesterday after
noon to consider a proposed amend

the members pf the.Board were pre

Alderman Rieaad, Chairman of the
Committee on Markets, stated the ne
cessity for amending the ordinance
concerning : markets, and read the
following,, which had been prepared
by the City Attorney: hi::; r -That

tween Dock and Orange streets) and
on Fourth and Campbell streets, and
such other places as are or may be es
tablished by the Board of Aldermen
as publio markets; nor shall it be law

eame for sale, in any other cart,
wagon, or vehicle, than that in which
the said articles are so brought to
market. I Any person violating any
of the foregoing provisions shall for
feit and pay for each offence, fifty
dollars. ji
This ordinance shall be in force
from and after the 24th day of Octo
ber, 1888, and all ordinances and
parts of ordinances in conflict with
this ordinance are hereby repealed.
Alderman Klcaud. explained tne
purport of the proposed amendment,
which was to prohibit the sale, ab
solutely, of any cut meats outside the
city market houses until after ten
o'clock in the morning.
After debate, Alderman- .King
moved that the ordinance as read be
adopted. The motion was seconded
by Alderman FIshblate.
Alderman Dudley offered an amend
ment, to strike out ten o'clock and
insert 8.80 a. m. Alderman Fishblate
moved to table the amendment, and
the motion being put to a vote,, was
carried, j Alderman Dudley claimed
that this disposed of the whole mat
ter, but the chair ruled otherwise.
Alderman! Sampson offered as an
amendment to make the time nine
o'clock, and this was adopted.
After further debate the question
was called and the ordinance as
amended by Alderman Sampson was
adopted. .-
At the suggestion of Che Mayor
it was ordered that a special
meeting of the Board be held on the
first Thursday in November at 7.30
m., to avoid the necessity of : a
session of the Board on the first Mon
daythe day jpreceding the general
election. i .
Pin Fifcr Hatting:.
A Charleston, S. C, telegram to the
New York Herald says, . !
Among the! cotton received here
yesterday was one lot of fifteen bales
from uneraw,; a. u., whicq was cov
ered in bagging made from pine
straw. The entire lot was quickly
disposed of and readily accepted by
tbe exporters. This practically solves
tne oagging puzzle ana puts a quietus
on tne nopes or tne jute bagging
trust. The; fifteen bales received yes
terday were shipped to Liverpool.
Tne adaptability or tbe bagging to
the covering of cotton will result in a
wonderful revolution in the South.
It is made of the needles or leaves of
the pine found in Southern forests.
These needles can be made" into cot
ton covering at a cost which is bound
to run jute bagging out of the United
States. The green needles, it is
claimed, yield oil enoucrh to pay the
entire cost! oi tneir treatment, it is
Erobable that by next spring over one
undred factories for the manufacture
of pine straw bagging and matting
wm be in operation between Kaieign,
N. C, and New Orleans.

Frank Li Mack-alias Frank Lomax,
the negro thief and burglar who shot
police officer Turlington, was brought
before Mayor Fowler yesterday for
investigation of the cases of robbery
with which he is charged at Clarkton.
Mr. K. B. Cromartie, clerk in Mr. J.
D. Carrie's store at Clarkton, and
Hayes Swindell, a colored store-keeper
at lhat place, were pre
sent as witnesses against the
prisoner.. They identified some
of the articles captured by the police
when Mack was arrested in this city,
as stolen 'jfrom them on the night of
the 11th of October, and also testified
tb seeing! Mack in the vicinity of
Clarkton, and to his having been
seen by other persons making his
way to Wilmington and carrying a
large bundle.
Member Hankins.ihe negro woman
who was in company with Mack when
the latter was arrested, and at whose
house the stolen goods were found,
testified that Mack brought the things
to her house about three weeks be
fore he was arrested.
At the j conclusion of the hearing
macs: was committed to jail on the
charee of larcenv In default of 2nn
bond for his appearance at the Crim

The nine-fibre mill . oi tne aom
Manufacturing Company of this city,
situated at Cronly. on the Carolina
Central "railroad, seventeen mues
from Wilmington, was destroyed Dy
fire yesterday ; afternoon. ; xne nre
was discovered i at half-past : ten
o'clock, in the mill, and is supposed
to have originated from the "dryer,"
Employes at the works and about
forty railroad hands who were, ior-
tunately, at the station witn a ma
terial train, through hard work pre
vented the-flames spreading to the
spinning and weaving: mill (where the
fibre is manufactured into bagging
and matting,) the fertilizer factory
and the railroad, depot, all of which
were in great danger, the latter build
ing at one time being actually on Are.
A great deal of valuable maoninery
was destroyed in the burned mill, be
sides a quantity of stock and material,
but no estimate of the loss sustained
could be obtained. The property was
ineured.Jnowever, and it is hoped for
an amount sufficient to cover the loss.
Mr. Wm. Lattimer, the president of
the company, is absent at the JNortn,
whither, it is understood he went ja
few weekssinoe for the purpose of
buying new and improved machinery
for the fibre factory, which it was
proposed to enlarge j and extend to
meet the rapidly increasing demand
for the bagging turned out at the
works for baling cotton. J :
The community will be glad to
learn that it is probable that the fac-
torv will be rebuilt and again in ac
tive operation in a few weeks.
Tne Carolina Central ana tne Tnreo
C Railroad.
The Charlotte Chronicle says:
' "There can be no doubt of the fact
that a traffic arrangement has been
perfected between these two roads,
for the three C's has been delivering
cotton to the Carolina Central, at Ca
tawba Junction, at a lively rate, cars
of tbe South Carolina road, loaded
with cotton, now run daily into Wil
mington on tne uarolina uentrat
road. CoL R. A. Johnston, general
manager of the three C's road, was in
HTM t- . . "1 -iTTit T
.v umioran yesieruav, ana w liming
ton is the Carolina Central head
quarters. The three C's and the Caro
lina Central were at loggerheads
for some time after the three C's
commenced laying track from Shelby
to Kutneriordton, and the two roads
gave each other some lively tilts in
the oourts about risrhts of way. etc.
To keep even with the three C's, the
Carolina central extended its line to
Rutherfordton and for some time the
hostilities of the roads were well un
derstood. The war now seems to be
over and the three C's and the two
C's are acting like brothers and ac
tually exchange freight. The terms
oi tne traffic arrangement are not
known, but from the way the two
roads are now hamming business.
they are evidently satisfactory to the
authorities or eacn road.
Vanea ml Laartnnnrc
Passengers who eame in on the
Carolina Central last evening report
that an immense crowd greeted Sena
tor Vance at Laurinburg yesterday.
He made a rattling speech and the
enthusiastic Democracy of Richmond
and adjoining counties were wild with
enthusiasm. His. discussion of the
tariff issue was magnificent beyond
description. There's no man in North
Carolina like "Old Zeb."
y. a. Since tne foregoing was
typed; a gentleman who was present
informs a Stab representative that
Vance's audience numbered about
3,500 people, including an esoort of
300 men on horseback. Red shirts,
red nags and Cleveland.nats added to
the picturesque scene. When it is re
membered that but three days1 notice
of Vance's coming had been given the
turnout is remarkable.
Baaa Ball Razt Season.
A movement is on foot to form a
twelve or fourteen club league com'
posed of the following cities: Rich
mond and Norfolk, Va.; Columbia,
and Charleston, S. C; Wilmington,
N. C; Savannah and Atlanta, Macon
and Columbus, Ga.; ' Chattanooga,
Tenn.; Selma, Birmingham, Mont
gomery, and Mobile, Ala.
Each team will be composed partly
of professionals and home talent.
The Savannah News, from which the
above is gleaned, says the projectors
of the scheme have every confidence
of a very successful season, as only
men of vim and energy will be at the
head. It is proposed to make the
shares fa each, thereby giving all an
opportunity to become members of
the home club. Most of the ' cities
have already been heard from and
are enthusiastic over the scheme.
Pender Democrat.
The Democratic candidates in Pen
der county attended a large meeting
held at Willard's last Saturday. A
correspondent of the Stab writes
that telling speeches were delivered.
A. H. Paddison, Esq., candidate for
sheriff, went heavily into national
politics and made a good impression.

that the companies named in tne oraer
in many ! cases make greater charge for

charged to shippers are not the rates given

issued npon single shipments, and are lim

Tne Constitutionality of tne PronlbN
tion Liw In Iowa Sustained-Chief
Justice Puller'e trirat DeeUlon.
" - - Br Telegraph to the Morning Star. .'.
Washington. October 22. The SuDremo
Court to-day sustained the constitutionality
of the prohibition law in ; Iowa. The
point at issue was the right to manufac
ture intoxicating liquors.'solely for exporta
tion to other States, despite the State law,
and it was pleaded that ) the prohibitory
feature in s 5 far as manufacture for exporta
tion is concerned, was ia conflict with the
constitutional provisions giving Congress
the sole right to regulate inter-State com
merce, r The case is that of J. S. Kidd. dis
tiller, plaintiff in error, vs. I. E. Pearson
and 8. J. Loughras. r : ; .
The court holds that the State law prohi
biting both manufacture and sale, except
for mechanical, medicinal, : culinary and
sacramental purposes, is not in conflict
with the inter-State commerce provisions
of the Constitution, and the decision of the
Iowa court is sustained." -
Opinion by Justice Lamar. -The
Supreme Court-of the United States
to-day rendered a decision in the case No.
990, Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louis
Railway Company, plaintiff in error, vs.
the State of Alabama: commonly known as
the color-blindness case. The case involves
the constitutionality of the law of Ala
bama forbidding the employment of per
sons on railroads within the State who are
affeeted with color-blindness and defective
vision, and requiring several employes to
have their sight tested by a board of ex
perts. The Supreme Court of Alabama
upheld the constitutionality of the law. and
this court affirms that decision. The
principal ground on which the railroad
company attacked the law, was that it Was
repugnant to the clause of the constitution
granting to Congress power to regulate
commerce among the States.
Opinion by Justice Field..
Washihqtok, October 22. Chief Justice
Fuller to-day delivered his first opinion in
the Supreme Court of the United States.
The case was that of the Western Union
Telegraph Company vs. the commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, brought here on appeal
from the Supreme Court of the State of
Pennsylvania. The commonwealth levied
a tax on all telegrams passing over the
company's lines within the State, this tax
being imposed regardless of the fact that
much of the business, was not confined
whollv to the State, but was to' points in
other States The Supreme Court to-day
held, through Chief Justice Fuller, that
the State was not entitled to .collect tax,
ficeot for a message between points with
in the borders of the State, and according
ly reversed the judgment of the State Court
with costs, and remanaea tne case to tne
lower Court for further proceedings.

Confessions Relative to a New If era:
mturder Tne Society of mane, and
tne Obilsatlons of Its members.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
New Yobk, Oct 21. Francisco Iota,
Natale Sabatano. and Ouissepoe Camzzaro,
who have been occupying cells in the
Tombs on suspicion of being concerned in
the mnrderof Antonio Flaccimio, whose
dead body was found on a street near
Cooper Union, a week ago, have all made
confessions to Inspector Byrnes about the
murder. Flaccimio was marked out for
death some time back. He belonged to
a society known as Made. Itpunishcs
by death any member who divulges
its secrets or gives information to the police
concerning the identity of any of its mem
bers who have violated the laws of the
land. Flaccimio had done both, and knew
he was to die. He arranged with his son
to carrr on his business in case of his sud
den disappearance. On Sunday, October
14th. he was enticed into an Italian restau
rant at No. 8 St Mark's Place, and a game
of cards was made the grounds for a quar
rel between him and uariouarteraro.
The three men imprisoned now swear
they saw Carlo and Vincenzo Quarteraro
follow Flaccimio into tne street. . .Fran
cisco Iota savs that he accompanied
Flaccimio, and that he sought to prevent the
murder, vincenzo made a lunge at JTlac
cimio and Iota dashed him aside. Carlo
Quarteraro then lumped forward and
Dlunged a dirk into Flaccimio's breast
There were altogether nine Italians on the
scene, and alL with the exception oi uario,
returned to the restaurant and took an oath
of secrecv.
Inspector Byrnes says that several repu
table Sicilians said they have to belong to
tbe Mafie as a matter of protection to them
selves. The police expect soon to have the
murderer and his brothers under arrest.
RICH MO NlTtJERMINA L .
A Nsw Deal for control of lbs Georgia
Central.
By Telegraph to the. Homing Star.
Nkw Yobk. October 28. The Rich
mond Terminal Company to-day consider
ed the proposition fiom holders of the
Georgia Central stock to buy control of
that property. An option had been given
on the entire stock of the Georgia Com
pany, and it was decided after a short ses
sion to buy the control. A committee,
consisting of John Q. Moore, John EL Hall
and YY. b. Ubisnolm, was appointed to ar
range a transfer of the property. Almost
the entire capital stock of the Georgia Cen
tral is controlled by the Georgia Company,
which was organized for the purpose, and
by tne purcnase or tne ueorgia uompany s
stock the Richmond Terminal will add
2,500 miies of road to their system, making
the mileage for the Kicnmona Terminal
about 9,000 miles. Parties to the deal say
it was forced on the syndicate holding the
stock, and the parties who bought it at the
time General Alexander was elected presi
dent get out about even.
Nkw Yobk, October 23. The firBt pay
ment for the Georgia Company stock was
made to-day by officials of the Richmond
Terminal Company. The -committee has
not yet oompleted arrangements for the
transfer, but will probably do so to-morrow.
The Georgia Company was organ
ized by a syndicate, headed by H. B. Hol
lins, for the purpose of carrying four mil
lions of Georgia Central stock, which the
syndicate acquired two years ago. It had
issued twelve millions of stock and four
millions of bonds, and held the syndicate
stock in its treasury as collateral for the
bonds.
It was officially stated to-day that tbe
price paid for the stock was $35 per share,
making the total about $4,200,000. The
East Tennessee directors meet to-morrow
to declare a dividend of five per cent. This
will give the Richmond Terminal' $300,000
in cash, which will be applied to the pur
chase of the Georgia Company stock. There
was some talk of dissatisfaction among the
holders of the remaining $3,500,000 Geor
gia uentrai stock, representing the minori
ty interest President Inman states that he
is prepared' to buy. the remaining stock at
$ l.ao per snare.
