T Mers. Van Bolickn and oUter.... : Committee oj 'flic" Chavilier of 'Commerce, On the morning of the 20 of February, I rec'elved the following communication 'ad dressed on the envelope 11 Wil. Col.' and uc. K. Ca J' which is the only one I have, ever received from the :V. Chamber of Commerce: To the rem&ni, and. Director of ..WiL vl. nndAng.lt. Ji. Co., Wiltningtori, 3T. Gentlemen: At the recent meeting of . the Chamber of ' Commerce, the : undersigned were appointed a Committee to call to your attention the serious discontent existing in the mercantile community, of our section,, and of the State at large, in consequence of the discrimination in favor of . what is known as 44 through business," and wo re spectfully appeal to you for such a change of tlic present system as shall secure to the local business that precedence to which, in our judgment, it i9 legally entitled. In asking this change we seek" what w e sincerely believe will inure as well to your benefit as to that of the people generally; for the through freight is obtained and car ried at enormous cost; often netting noth ing, and usually not a third of what is realized from the local, besides which the neglect of home interests injures the pros perity of the very people for whose bonefit your roads were chartered. 1 ! V In ; conclusion, wo wish respectfully to state that the feeling of dissatisfaction is so universal that the body we represent saw proper to inst ruct us, in case this applica tion is disregarded by you, to employ coun sel and appeal for redress of our grievances to the Legislature of the State. We deem it unnecessary to go into detail as to the ground of complaint, but are prepared to do so if desired. " - , irred) A. H. VaxBokkklen, Donald MacRak, I). R MCRCHISOIf, CrtAS. H. Robinsox. Wiumikoton, N. C. , Feb. 20, 1873. To the committee I immediately address ed a note asking them to give me grounds of their complaint, with an assurance that I am desirous of giving not only the city but the local business all necessary facilities. In the papers ;of the 27th nit., I find a com munication from which the following is taken: The committee would explain further that they have heard no complaints as to rates charged; but only as to the inexcusa ble delay in the movement of local freights. They feel that it would be unjust to Mr. Bridgers to cast all the causes of delay up on him as he has not been furnished by those in authority with the transportation requisite for the rapid jclearing up of both the through and local, and from the nature of his duties, is so frequently absent from the city, so as to render it impossible that complaints should have always his personal attention. In conclusion, the Committee take pleas ure in stating that since the return of Mr. Bridgets, there is abundant evidence that the action of the Chamber of Commerce has by no means been barren of good re sults; for a large amountof local freight has already been moved, and if the "extraordi nary exertions" to which the President re fers as likely to remove the pressure, had leen inaugurated earlier there would have been no " mockade," and consequently, no grounds for complaint -' ;-- . -- - -... -. , Very respectfully, .- A. H. YasBokkeles, -v u;- DosAU) MacRae, . . Coas. H. R0BIK8OX, D. 11 McRCHisoa, . - Committee of Chamber of Commerce. - From this it will appear there is no com plaint of rates charged but of delay in transportation. ' 7 In the same communication the commit tee say the resolution of the Chamber of Commerce grew out ot a report that the President had been "interviewed" and had vouchsafed neither reply nor redress a very strange interviewing without a reply on my part. f- As they say there was an in terview, I will not deny it, but I certainly have no recollection of any "interview with any one professing to represent the Cham ber of Commerce. : I submit whether it .would not have been better to have made a complaint in writing setting forth the grievances complained of so that they could have been investigated and remedied if found to exist, 'especially as ftom the nature of mvxluties I am so freqently absent fromihe city as to render it impossible that complaints should always .have my personal Attention." Indeed it does look like an. act of friendly courtesy would have prompted the representatives of the commercial interest of the city so deeply interested in tne roads under my management. - to nave accorded to me a personal ' Interview," that I might have been heard in explanation V or defence be fore the roads were denounced and threat ened with an appeal to the legislative powers of the country before a detail of the "ground of complaint" was given. Not only was no hearing given me, but I was absent from the city at the time, with- ont notice, navmg oeen previously inter viewed so . lightly jon the grounds of com plaint as not to know when it was done, - . .

J v . 10 sum up the facts as developed uv our correspondence, the case, seems to be this Hie present owners of the W..C & A. railway bonffht the Wilmington and Man chester Road, ending in the woods, without any through connections; they reduced the freight on naval stores 15 percent, cotton 21 er cent. Such articles as salt, bacon, corn, flour, sugar, coffee and molasses 50 per cent. in addition to the purchase money for the W. & M. R Rthey have spent about $2,230,000 in buildings, equipping with motive power, rolling stock,; building .new roads, and securing connections beyond Columbia.. -1 They have given the same rates from Wilmington to Columbia, 191 miles, as from Charleston, 131 miles. .The same rates are secured to this city to Ches ter, Rock Hill; Winnsborb, York and other places in the upper part of South Carolina. as are paid . to Charleston, oy miles less in I distance. The trade of Charlotte and the I neighboring country that was cut off from us some years ago by the action of the N. C. R. R, has been opened to this city again on the same : rates as to competing cities. .norc than .this, in many instances, for the encouragement of the interest of this chy. iaigu quiui mies ireigiii nave oeen brought here at the bare cost of transpor tation, and at less than through rates.- The present owners of W .. U. & A. R R. have bought ten new locomotives and con tracted for eight more for the next season. and have built 260 new cars. Out of all the engines owned three are running in the through service -and the remainder in the local. . , For all these valuable benefits secured to i merchants here without cost to them: that V uas given an increase 01 ou per cent. 01 Dusiness to this city from the road and new connections, in the hour of trial, without a hearing, not a single voice was raised to say a word for the management that has civen such results. '. jj freights to this city the management, of these roads is censured as unfriendlvto this city; with a threat to appeal to the Legisla-: ture for aid. I know there has been some complaint that some freights were allowed to go to Charleston. It must be remem bered that the most valuable part of this roaa is in onth uaroiina, and. mat wiien Wilmington asks for legislative aid to bring freights here, Charleston may have a word to say about her rights. - I My instructions have been to develoo the 5 local ousiness wnerever it was iound Drac- 3 ticable, for tho road cannot be prosiered' -without a prosperous country and prosper ous towns. 1 think the tabular, exhibits given show the management have succeed ed in carrying out the instructions. there has been a large increase of local on the W. & W. but I' have ' said nothing about that road as . I have heard no com plaint of delays. I might add, I know of no road that has given more prompt trans portation than that has the present season. 1 asc the committee 'to examine our records and verify the ' several statements made, and submit them to the unambcr of Commerce with the request that they say, whether the present management of the two roads has been unfriendly to the interest of Wilmington. - t l also ask of your body Bhould yon again proceed to arraign our, management of the two roads, that you, will give ..us the full ground on which the charges are based be fore pronouncing judgment onus without a hearing, instead of proposing tq give details after judgment rendered. .
