T DAILY ENQUIRER • SUN : COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING DECEMBER 7, im. A Vigorous Defence of Captain Rjoui's Management. How “Pte" wo* IM.ponwt of—A Pertinent Uefei- ooeo to Short Crops and thr llallrimil Unniniln- elen—Koine tjiiMtlee. Ahoul the Cnndltiiin of the Rood. Savannah, December 3, 1883.— Editor Morning Nows: I, as no doubt other stockholders of the Central railroad, have read with interest an interview with Gen. K. P. Alexander recently published in the Atlanta Constitution, and as he announces himself a candidate for the presidency of that corporation note the great change that has come over him within the past four years. Evidently “by associating with Air. Adams and coming in contact with other railroad men of experience since bo has been a director of the Union Pacittc road," ho has been somewhat educated in the principles of railroad management since he last put himself in print on that subject in Georgia. The fear I have, however, is that having been inconsistant in the past his policy as now proclaimed might be changed again should he attain the object of his aspiration. It is a matter of feeling recollection to some of us that about the time, some four years ago, when he says the stock was above par, and when, after his defeat for the presidency, he and some of his friends threw their stock upon the market, caus ing it to decline, which he now charges to Captain Raoul’s management, thereby hurting others if not themselves, bis poli cy, as then declared by himself, and which, but for the intervention of the courts, would have been executed, was the divi sion of a nice little "pie” (that is what he called)—the Ocean Steamship Company. He was so anxious to do this that ho was even willing—indeed, he expressed the opinion that they ought to have it—to give more than a third of it to the stockholders of the Southwestern railroad. (General Alexander says his family was largely in terested in the Central ranroad. lie does not Bay that they were also largo owners of Southwestern stock.) Report also said the Western railroad of Alabama was another “pie" to be similarly disposed of. Other “pies” might also have heen found. The Central lias several, the Montgomery and Eufaula railroad, besides several millions of dollars of securities oi other companies. in other words, the policy heretofore expressed and advocated by Gen. Alexan der was a division between the Central and Southwestern stockholders of certain valuable property then and now ownod by the Central, and to make no more exten sions nor acquire any more roads or steam ships for and on account of the Central railroad. Upon this issue Capt. Raoul was elected president in January, 1883. The S ol icy uuder Capt. Raoul’s administration os been to place and keep the property In good condition so that it could be ope rated economically and well, to hold It all together for the advantage of Central stockholders exclusively, which would Bl/UUIVUUIUCIO CAU lUtUVUJ^. WJJ1VJU VYUU1U also insure to the Southwestern stock holders the regular dividends to which, under the lease of their road, they are entitled. Had General Alexander’s policy prevailed what dividends would Central stockholders have received during the yoars 1883, 1884 and 1885, when crops were short, business of every.kind depressed, railway traffic light and rates being con stantly reduced by the commission? What would be the physical condition of the entire property to-day? What would the stock be worth to-day? Would Savannah have increased her ousinoss and popula tion as she has? Would other towns nnd cities and tho country on the line have prospered as they aro now doing by means of the policy pursued? These are all pertinent questions, which appeal to every stockholder who owns his stock as an investment and to every per son who has an interest in the prosperity of our city and state. Upon the other hand, under tho man agement of Captain Raoul, and as clearly stated in the reports of the company, Goii. Alexander’s statements to the contrary notwithstanding, the road is in better con dition anil in better equipped and pros pects arc brighter and better than ever before for fair ami regular dividends, and, If kept out of the hands of manipulators, a higher and steadier value l'or the stock. Seeing this has doubtless prompted Gon. Alexander to “organize” the friends hu refers to to try to buy control of the stock, which fortunately they could not do, as they had to buy in the open market, there buitig no published list of stock holders to enable them to buy quietly and secretly. This is virtually admitted, by him in his interview, and he now seeks support from the stockholders by attempt ing to lessen their confidence in Captain Raoul and iiis board. This looks like try ing to deprive a generous but suecesslul rival of the laurels he Inis fairly won and which he r^lily deserved. But unfortu nately—perhaps I should say fortunately— it is well known that Gon. Alexander’s chief supporters are stoek speculators and manipulators. Though it isa personal matter, and Capt. Raoul is abundantly able to defend him self. 1 will note another inconsistency in Gen. Alexander’s statements. He says Capt. Raoul has attempted to create tne impression that there was no contest. In a letter from Gen. Alexander under date of November 22, only eight days before his interview with the Constitution and two days before the interview of Capt. Raoul in the New York World, referred to by him, he says: “I am not prepared to eay that I am a candidate.” ltow, then, could Capt. Raoul know there was to bo a contest? General Alexander’s attempt to reflect upon the board of directors by innuendo will scarcely avail him anything where ho and they nre known, and they are doubt less able to defend themselves against auy attack lie may make. Stockhoi.deh. done what others imagine they could do, Under great difficulties, President Raoul mis mainta ned the Central system pros perously Ho has extonded it wisely and profitably. He is pushing sagaciously ward other great systems, filling gaps and making no mistakes of policy. Ha lias been husbanding his resources and, when it could be done safely, declared a hand some dividend. It is related that n poor man once pro claimed that if he ever become rich, he would deal ont his money lavishly to needy children or destitute adults. When he un expectedly grew opulent, he put his hands in in his pockets and lot them remain there while the indigent were around. It is easy to promise. It is hard to perform. Wo hear what men on the outside promise. We know what Raoul has done. Mat of Htockhnldeni. .Savannah News. There were no new devlopments yester day in the Central railroad fight. The Alexander party has not begun action yet in the contest over the stockholders list. President Raoul has been out of the city since the directors' meeting last Wednes day, attending stockholders’ meetings in South Carolina. He is expected to return to-day. . , _ A formal demand has been made by Gen. Alexander’s attorneys for access to the list, and a final answer is exp.cted to morrow. The papers are made out and unless the demand is acceded to bis attor neys say the matter will be taken Into the courts without further delay. The stock advanced yesterday to 125 and the market was active. A number of sales were made at 125 and a few shares were re ported sold at 125b Free Trade. The reduction of internal revenue and the taking off of revenne stamps from Pro prietary Medicines, no doubt has largely benefited the consumers,as well as relieving the burden of home manufacturers. Es pecially is this the case with Green’s Au gust Flower and Boschee’s German Syrup, as the reduction of thirty-six cents per dozen, has been added to increase the size of the bottles containing these remedies, thereby giving one-fifth more medicine in the 76 cents size. Tho August Flower for Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, and the German Syrup for Cough and Lung trou bles, have pernaps, the largest Bale of any medicines in the world. The advantage of increased size of the bottles will be greatly _ appreciated by the sick and afflicted, in' every town and village in civilized coun tries. Sample bottles for 10 cents remain the same size. octl2 d&wly Her Honeymoon IVas Waning. “Have ye got any raw oysters?” asked a uewly-wedded countryman of the waiter. “Yes, sir.

Ttie statement telegraphed from New York that negotiations have been coiu- S letei by which the Richmond Terminal ompany has secured control of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad created some stir in local railroad circles. None ot the officials here or at Sa vannah know anything of tho deni, and do not know whether to credit tho statement or not. Tho Richmond and Danville has for a long time wanted an outlet at Savan nah or at some poiut on tho Georgia coast. The rumor that was current some time ago that a negotiation was ponding for the charter of tile Savannah, Dublin and ■Western Short Line was pretty generally credited. The statement that the Termi nal Company lias scooped the East Ten nessee road some believe to be a fact, and a confirmation is looked for. Vice-President Brice of the East Tennes see,Virginia and Georgia system,who is re ported as denying that any deal has been consummated, is understood to be one of the parties in New York who have been the heaviest buyers of Central stock during the past six weeks. General Thomas is said to be another who has invested large ly in Central. This fact, is not believed, however, to have had anything to do with the selling out of the East Tennessee road, if any sale has been made to the Richmond Terminal people. Ouly PruinUo.
