plicated in detail j and' the: coixi-
paritive magnitude the inter
ests which it involves i snchtHat
the Commission dd notFeef them
selves justified' in detaining the j
Senate. "with remarks upon the
particulaH of which it is compos
ed, or in , acting upon .the suppo
sition,1 that every part of it will
not be subjected to an impartial
and thorough scrutiny. . ,
, The Senate will find mpstof the
result summed up i n three sched
ules, whicb are hereto attached.
Of these;
' . The frit contains a statement
of the details connected with the
issue of State Bonds to the vari
ous Railroad Companies by the
Treasurer, and was - compiled by
that afficer for the use of the com
mission. ' "
The second gives arV account of
the disposal of the Bonds after
ihey came inta the hands of the
Companies. -i
The third shows the amounts in
mqniey for which the Bonds have
been sold or hypothecated.
The Commission desired to
propose aoMr-?A,to exhibit at one
view the principal items of expen
diture by which these amounts
had been partially, 6r totally ex
hausted ; but upon consideration
it was thought better to present
this view in a body of the Report.
The . more because the informa
tion in regard to: this matter is
very general, and more nearly an
approximation to the truth. It
was not expected that the Com
mission should examine and veri
fy, vouchers for expenditures in
detail. With the general obiects
-i . m
time aftowed fbTBiiTf operations,
this; was impracticable. An ex
amination of the testimony will
show other reasons why, in any
case, only ari approximation could
be had. In deed this is true as
well in regard to the figures rep
resenting the amounts received
by the companies upon the sale or
hyyqthication of the Bonds. By
referance to the testimony -of
Messrs.' McAden- and Joiiesi ex
planations 'will be foundoing to
show that by the - rules of New
york stockboard a: deduction ia'
made for all North Carolina Bonds
issued after Juiylst1868, at the
rate of six.' per cent per -annum
upon their face.'" So not a Bond
dated Oct 1st 1859; if apparently
soldrat twenty-five dollars - in mthe
hundred would in the first instance'
be subject to a deduction of seven
and one-half dollars, and they net
to the-company but seventeen dol-
ars and a half, "less taxes and
cominissions for sales.
To complete, tnen, the general
view afforded by the - scHedulea,
the commissions and the follow
ing statements, obtained from the
evidence herewith submitted, in
regard to each one of the compa
nies that have received-' appropn-
ations from the State since May
1st, 1865. " ' ' ' ',. V'
