The total returns on tangible and franchise values amount to 39.4*9,192, of which 31,(00,000 Is for the franchise, exactly the Agures of last year. An increase of only 343,933 Is shown, presumptively on 14.73 miles of new ■tdetrark. For the new line between Atlanta and CedartoWn the Seaboard Axes tha value at 33,000 per mile. It le said that this new roadbed 1* one of the Anest and beet ballasted In the South. Last year the comptroller Axed the val- nation of the new road of the Louis ville and Nashville (the Atlanta, Knox- vllle and Northern) at 312,300 per mile, and the Louisville and Nashville ac cepted It without arbitration. Now the comptroller does not under stand how the Seaboard can build a new line over territory offering almost as great obstacles a* tbe other In con struction at *7,(00 less per mile. On this specification he will demand further facts. Some of the mileage of the Seaboard Is returned as low a* 14,000 and some as high as 13,000. The returns are not satisfactory by any means, and unless the Seaboard will agree to raise them, an arbitration fa certain. With the exception of Colonel James M.
