General Alexander, Id the following
•questions and answers, states his party’s
position in the contest that is being cur
ried on for the control of the Central rail
road:
“What do you regard as the issue be
tween yourself and Captain Kuoul?”
“I will endeavor to state the issue so
briefly that no one can forget it; with such
■detail that no one can fail to comprehend
it, and with such illustration of notorious
facts that no one can deny it. But I wish
to preface what I have to say with the as
surance that I do not desire to question in
any manner or degree the personal charac
ter or integrity of any member of the
present management. As I see them they
are between the horns of some rather sharp
dilemmas, but the horn which will Impale
them will be only that of a mistaken con
ception of their obligations and duties, mid
-a failure to appreciate the value ot the
property intrusted to their management
.os trustees for the stockholders.
“The issue then brifly is this—or rather
ft was this until a few days ago. Now an
additional issue Is raised of which I will
apeak later. The issue was at first of this
contest: Shall Central railroad stock be
slaughtered any longer?”
HAS THE STOCK BEEN SLAUGHTERED ?
"Has it been slaughtered ?”
“No one can now be found, I think, to
-deny it. The facts are too notorious.
When the present management started the
•contract which gave them possession four
years ago the stock was at 111. It at once
-declined mid with their success fell below
par. It continued to decline until it sold
below 06. Part of this decline was doubt
less due to the financial trouble of May,
1884, but it had fallen to 80 before that.
All good stocks began to recover rapidly
-from the general decline in the summer
of 1886, but Central remained behind and
hung about 70. It was then and because
of that, and that only, that the present
movement for a change of management
originated and began to take shape, and no
tnau can successfully dispute it. Hud the
-stock been selling ut near its rcul value
-everybody woultlhave been satisfied and
the present management would have beeu
.left in peace.”
A FAIR PRICE FOR THE STOCK.
“But is it fair to call 70 a slaughter price
./or Central ruilroad stock ?”
-“If any one disputes it now let him read
XJie recent letter iu the Savannah News of
Mr. Comer, one of tho two prominent di-
irectors who, without disparagement of the
-other ten, are generally believed to be
■most entirely in the intimacy and confi
dence of the president. Mr. Comer now
seems to think 120 to be a low price for it.
But there has been no great event to
-change the intrinsic valuo of this property,
-and if it is worth 120 mow, 70 or even pur
was a slaughter price six months ago.”
“But was the present board responsible
/or the low price of six months ago ?”
“In that is the gist of the whole matter.
1 might be content to say simply that a
-.general who commands an army is respon
sible for his results. But 1 go further and
point tn nets both of omission and of com
mission which caused the depression.
THE PKKHIDENT’rt REPORTS.
“The president’s report for 1885 was a
-most depressing document to a stockhold
er. The railroads acquired and good bar
gains made In Carolina, of which Mr.
‘Comer now speaks so favorably were not
•referred to directly or indirectly. Stock-
-.holdcrs were left in utter ignorance of tiie
-very existence of important contracts, ul-
reaay completed and in process of execu
tion. liven yet their details have never
ibeen furnished. Vague assurances are
mow given that they aro ' dvantageous,
but whether they will double t he value of
’•Central railroad stock or whether they in
volve any risks .rhich may dimi ii ;h ft no
-one knows certainly.
“It is impossible to go into the details of
- what strong points of t.’-.c system were sup
pressed or lightly touched upon and what,
weak ones exaggerated, but ita tenor as a
wKoKe wax very discouraging and its effect
•on th- stock very marked.
THE MONTHLY EAUN1NOS
“Next the policy of keeping secret tho
monthly earnings lion hud an injurious el-
.fedt -Hpou the value of the stock tor years
anil him oust stockholders hundreds anil
.thousands of dollars during the lost few
.mouths. The earnings Jutvo increased so
.greatly that the seml-ttuiiual dividend has
suddenly boon doubled, hut no one suw
■these earnings gradually accumulate, or
read the promise wuiuh they held ofnelter
".filings in the future, but the directors
rand .those to whom they might reveal
them.
“But most effective perhaps, of all the
'things which kept the stock down were
both public statements and private advices
.given by members of the board upon all
sides. I know personally of advice to sell
- stock if it ever seen SO. and of tho second
prominent director above referred to ad
vising a hank not to lend over 70 or 7 - on
■the stock, os it was not worth it. There
fore, l Bay the Btock was slaugh ered, and
the president and directors slaughtered it,
mot in malice, but in whatever else any
> one chooses to call it. And the issue is
■that it is not to be slaughtered any more
•neither in malice nor in the other thing.
A NEW ISSUE.
-“Ami now a second issue has arisen.
Siirne of the stockholders objecting to be
ing slaughtered, began to kick -otherwise
they began to organize, to call to friends to
fake the places of those who hud been
..slaughtered, and prepare for au argauized
■movement to put in a management which
would save them all alive. But in order
.to make this movement effective a major
ity of the scattered stockholders must find
-each other In order to act together.
“Tlu-y can only do this by getting access
To the list of stockholders, and they ask
the president and hoard for it. This lias
been refused, and thus the second issue
lius urisen between Capt. Itaoul and my
self. I represent what I may call tho
kickers iy>ainst slaughter. Oapt. Raoul’s
board boldly proclaims now that they will
tie us. This second issue we must try first
in the courts, and when that is decided in
our favor there, as it is instinctively in the
head and heart of every fair minded man
•or woman, we will try it before the stock
holders, and let them decide whether this
management or any other shall be allowed
to perpetuate itself bv any sueli high
handed measures, or whether it shall bo
held responsible for its blunders, whether
committed in nmllee or iu the other way.”
GENERAL ALEXANDER’S POLICY.
“In event of your election what leading
change in policy will be inaugurated?”
“To give the stockholders full and fre
quent information as to the value and
eurnings of the company. To give any
dissatisfied stockholder fair play in seeking
to reform any abuse or change the manage
ment. To so distribute expenses of main
tenance as to avoid great irregularity in
dividends, and to endeavor to bring about
a better state of feeling between the rail
road and some of the section of country
which it serves.”
“The impression has been that your can
didacy is in the interest of outside parties
an1 that the road would be under a toveign
management instead of being in the inter
est of a majority of the stockholders? ”
“That is the principal stock iu trude of
the present management. They have put
‘ np as bug-a-boos successively' the Rich
mond ana Danville, the Louisville aud
—Nashville and various other railroads aud
so-called foreign managements, and sug
gested that In some mysterious way these
parties if they became stockholder!! would
destroy the value of tho stock to all other
stockholders.
WILL PROTECT TUB STOCK.
“In other words the present manage
ment. who, as I have shown, have been
slaughtering tho stock In carelessness or
ignorance, cry out that I will slaughter it
in malice. That is to say that I and my
friends intend to commit financial suicide,
for we have invested our money in the
stock and any injury done to it )b done to
ourselves.
But I desire to say emphatically 1 repre
sent, to my knowledge, the Interests of no
man and no corporation and no locality
on earth, but solely the Central railroad
stockholder. I am in the same boat with
him. 1 am a small part of him and he is
far the largest part of me. If there is any
way to hurt him and not hurt myself
worse I do not know it, and to benefit him
is to mutually benefit the citie9 and terri
tory served by the Central railroad.
“It has been stated that you are inter
ested in the issue of a new series of secu
rities?”
“Any such statement is utterly false and
groundless.”
NOT IN THE DANVILLE DEAL.
“It is stated that you were largely inter
ested in the Richmond and Danville deal?”
“I had no connection with it and no in
terest in It. I was not in New York when
it took place, but in Boston. I have own
ed small amounts of Riohraond and Dan
ville securities in the past, but had sold
every one before the deal took place ”
“What are the interests ofthe New York
people who have recently been investing
so largely iu Central stock?”
“Their interests are simply those of per
sons who, seeing a very valuable stock be
ing slaughtered, have bought it. They be
lieve that under my management it will
prove an excellent investment for their
money. Thfey are now in the same boat
with the Georgia stockholders, and what
ever will benefit one must necessarily bene
fit- the other, and what would injure one
will injure tne other.”
THE COMING ELECTION.
How do you regard your chanceB for
election?”
‘The refusal of the board to allow us
access to the list of stockholders aud the
impression that there was really to be lo
contest conveyed to many by a circular
letter sent to every stockholder by the
president with a request for proxies may
ioBslbly defeat me at the election in
_anuary. But I have strong hopes of
even yet reaching a sufficient number of
the stockholders to give the present board
the rebuke which its record and its con
duct deserve. And my friends have come
into the fight to stay. We aro confident
that on the issues involved fairly presented
to the stockholders the management will
be defeated a hundred to one.”
THE GREEN STOCK.
“You will control the Green stock iu the
coming election?”
“Mrs. Green will vote her stock foi me
in person or by proxy. She has never
voted for the present management since
they bought her proxy in my former con
test. She would not have sold it then,
but a gentleman who was her financial
agent, for a commission of |2500, induced
her to do so in the absence of her husband
and without his knowledge, representing
to her as a man of business that there was
no impropriety in It. I say Jthia in jus
tice to nersolf and her husband, who have
been misjudged in the matter.”
AFTER THE LIST.
Ucneral Alexander’s Friends Uenew Their lie-
mend for the Baoks.
Savannah News.
General Alexander’s friends made an
other effort yesterday to gaiu access to the
Central railroad stockholders’ list. A for
mal demand was made by Garrard &
Meldrim, attorneys for Messrs. Hartridge,
Blun, Read, Houston and others who made
the demand two weeks ago, “that they be
allowed access to and inspection of any
and all books in the possession of the com
pany. or any of its officers, which show
who the stockholders are and that they be
allowed to make liHts therefrom.”
Tho grounds for desiring access to the
books are stated in a letter addressed by
G irrard & Muiilriui to President Raoul
and Mr. Ouuulugnuui ns follows; “As an
election for a board of directors of the
company will occur on January 3 our
clients, as stockholders, deeply interested
in securing the best board possible to inan-
nge the atthirs of the company, wish to
have at once u lull list of stockholders so
that they can exercise the right of confer
ring and counseling with each and all of
them so far as they may deem best ns to
the proper persons to be chosen for such
hoard, and for all purposes of the elec
tion."
The letter goes on to state that lists of
stockholders were published for many
years with the annual reports, but since
the present administration went into
power the lists have not boon published.
An immediate reply was asked and the
letter staled that if the demand was net
acceded to at. once they would proceed nt
once by mandunuis to compel an opening
of t he books.
President. Raoul Instructed the com
pany’s attorney to reply that the action
taken by the dircetdrs fast week was du
el dee and that he had no further reply to
make.
Messrs. Qarrurd & Meldrim stated last
night that the papers will be filed in the
superior court this morning. There is a
good deal of talk ubout the matter and
considerable speculation as to the result
The stock market was firm. Sales were
reported at 12&i, 1-6 and 12(11, and the
market closed with holders asking all the
way from 127 to ISO. It was stated last
night that General Alexander’s friends
were buying privately, wherever they can
get hold of large lots, nt four and five
points above the market.

L’Allegro Club, 88e;
Premium Black. 08c.
These goods have to be seen and worn to be appreciated.
Those who have tried them pronounce them superior to any
thing ever offered for anything near the price. Kid Gloves,
to be good and wear well, must be new ly made of soft, elastic
skins and freshly tanned. If they lay in stock long the skin
becomes dry aud harsh: it is sure to follow that a very large
percentage w ill crack, and in many instances the seams part
in putting on the first time. To prove the accuracy of the
above statement, 1 have sold during the past ten days and
have not had one complaint—not one has ^proved faulty; not
one has parted seams. Can more be said of Gloves that are
sold daily for 50 per cent more? 1 hope the ladies of Co
lumbus will appreciate this effort to give them fresh Gloves
at a very low price, and give us their trade.

ECZEMA ON A CHILD.
Your most valuable CUTICURA REMEDIES
have done my child so much good that I feel like
sayinK this for the benefit of those who are trou
bled with skin diseases. My little irirl was trou
bled with Eczema, and I tried several doctors
and medicines, but. did not do her any good until
I used the CUTICURA REMEDIES, which
speedily cured her, for which I owe you many
thanks and many nights of rest.
