SUNDAY, AUGUST 16
Receivers For Inman & Co. File
Their Report With U. S. Court
Over Three Quarters of a
Million Dollars Collected
and all But $62,950.22
Has Been Paid Out. All
Debts Settled
Mr. Thomas Barrett, Jr., of this
flty, and Mr, A. L. Waldo, of Atlanta,
receivers for Inman and Company,
have Bled their report with the clerk'
of the United States court in Atlanta.
The report is one of the most inter
esting ever filed in which Augusta is
directly interested, owing to the fact
that such a large sum of money is
involved.
Every debt of Inman and Company
in America, on which there was col
lateral, has been paid Mr. Thos. Bar
rett, Jr.. Mr. A. L. Waldo and Mr.
Henry B. Hynds have been appointed
trustees for the remainder of the
funds in hand ttvd for tha firm in gen
eral. It will no doubt be a long num
ber of years before ail the unsecured
claims against the company are set
tled. and many complications will
probably arise during the period.
Mr. J. F. McGowan, president of
the company, has been discharged
from bankruptcy, and it is understood
that he will at once engage in the
cotton business in Augusta. Mr. Mc-
Gowan has a large number of friends
here who will undoubtedly wish him
great success in his work, and they
realize that he has been an inde
fatigible worker in the interest of Au
gusta and his new business will bo
of direct benefit to the city.
THE REPORT IN
A CONCISE FORM.
The report in concise form shows
that Messrs. Barrett and Waldo col
lected >703,337.57. have expended
>680,407.35. and have >82,950.22 on
hand. The money collected was sc
oured through the sale of 13.413 bales
of cotton, which brought $008,739.05:
the collection of >9.546.54 of bank
deposits, also >910.64 from agency
hanks, >3_’,459.45 from bank balances,
$12,000 from cash margins, >1,114,44
from the company's various offices,
>29,182.12 from accounts, and >9,379.27
from claims. Bank claims amounting
to >309,000.20 were paid out, note
claims amounting to >335.000 and
other claim* amounting to >44,527.15.
MR. BARRETT’S WORK
WINS COMMENDATION.
The sale of the Immense cotton
holdings of Inman and Company call
ed for a great amount of work and
only an experienced man could have
secured such splendid results from
the sales. This duty devo'ved upon
Mr. Thos. Barrett, Jr., who Is well
known as one of the leading cotton
men In the country. Through his
work the sales were rapidly consum-!
mated at figures much In excess of
the price now prevailing^
At the time the concern went into
bankruptcy there were 4,410 bales of
cotton on hand in Augusta and 2,389
bales on hand in Charleston, of which
C.44G bales were held by New York,
Boston and Charleston banks to se
cure notes by Inman and Companv
for >285,000. This left 353 bales of
cotton unpledged, all of which were
in Augusta.
In addition to the cotton held by
them as security for loans, the Na
tlonal Bank of Commerce, of New
York, held a cash margin of >B,OOO,
the Bank of New York held >4,000,
the Bank of Charleston had a de
posit of $5,469.31 and the People’s
National Bank of Charleston had a
balance of >156.61, all of which were
held by the respective banks against
the amounts due tAagb
MUCH COTTON
WAS ON HAND.
The National Rank of Commerce
was not inclined to let the receivers
handle the cotton they had on hand
just at the time it was proposed, but
the receivers put up money to pay
all obligations and thus released the
cotton for sale, securing a hUher
price than would have been possible
• short time later. All .he cotton
has been sold except 380 bales of
low grade cotton, and It Is all stored
In Augusta. In addition to the cot
ton mentioned above 305 bales were
located at Columbus, Ga.; 150 bales
at Macon Ga.; 100 bales at Char
lotte, N. C.; 558 bales at Selma, Ala.;
5,636 bales at Memphis, Little Rock
and Pin'e Bluff, Ark.; 80 bales at
Houston, Texas; 27 bales In New
York; 141 bale* in Boston, Mass.; 13
bales at Fall River, Mass.; making a
total of 7,019 bales. All this cotton
has been sold except two bales, which
were rejected.
DETAILED STATEMENT
GIVEN BY
RECEIVERS.
A detailed statement is made by
the receivers of how the cotton found
was disposed of, tho encumbrances
upon It and all details connected with
the Important work. Among these
paragraphs the following Interesting
data is attached, showing how great
»as the work and how thoroughly
It was carried out by the receiver’s
working for the Interest of the com
pan>. To fill a contract with the
Anchor Duck Mills 200 hales were
bought at a profit of >1.109.25; 150
bales were bought to fill a contract
with A. J. Button, the Liverpool cot
ton man, at an apparent profit of
$228.94 A contract with the Wil-J
llamston Mills for 2,500 was can
celled by the mills paying the re
ceiver* a profit of >9.000 In a com
promise These are only a few of the
numerous instances where a wei; I
known cotton man handled bis bust-!
ness with knowledce of what could
be done.- Other contract* were (•(!*»•
promised with other mill* at a profit
of >21,685.00.
DISCREPANCIES IN
MEMPHIS OFFICE.
No discrepancies whatever have j
been found except in the Memphis
offices, where the books show that
*•»«• should have e«*en 6.73? bale*
of cotton on hand and only 5,636 bales
were found. A shortage iu cash
amounting to >2,400 was shown by the
trial balance of the books, but tho
receivers have not recovered the
missing funds, though requisition has
been made on the manager of the
Memphis agency for the money. These
matters will receive th e attention of
the trustees.
in addition to the other securities
held by the Inman and Company men
tioned above the firm had large hold
ings in stable Concerns ali over the
country, which have not yet been dis
posed of by the receivers.
TRUSTEES MAY WORK
FOP. MANY YEARS.
The conclusion of th e business of
winding up tho affairs of the com
pany will be prolonged over a period
of years, and it is yet an impossibility
to say just how the final settling up
of the estate will turn out.
The work of the receivers, and es
pecially of .Mr. Barrett, with his ex
perience in cotton, has been the sub
ject of much comment of commenda
ble character and is regarded as a
reflection of much merit on the Au
gusta receiver in the case.

DOI’TJE BILL
Prominent. Augusta Mili
tary Men Unite to Con
demn Proposed Enact
ment of Which Major
Stephens it Author.
Some of the loeal militia officers
were interviewed by a Herald report
er Saturday afternoon and they do
not seem to be in favor of the Steph
en military hill now before the mili
tary commission, via.i. George P. El
Hott said: "I do not see how the
legislature could have passed the bill
when almost every militiaman }n the
slat" Is agaibst it. Mr. Stephens, the
author of Hie bill, is major of the
Volunteer Guards In Savannah and
about a year ago he tried to get tip
governor to let the mmrus withdraw
from the state militia, but the- gover
nor refused the request, because It
one battalion was allowed to with
draw the others would have the oimi.i
privlledge. The present bill is the
outcome of the matter. If Hits bill
is passed it will practically demur a I
lze the stale troops.
"Under this hi 11 all the troops will
probably have to furnish their equip
ment and willi very few excepllona
the miHtls will not lie able to ds
this. The militia Is now In lfetier
shape than ever before, the If. 8.
government having increased the up.
proprlatlon from two millions to six
millions.
"This means Hint with Hie Dlek
bill the militia will have belter equip
meats, etc, than ever before.
"I received a letter tills morning
lrom Col. Harris of the Second in
fantry ip Atlanta, also president of
the National Guard of
Georgia, asking me to iino what in
fluence I had lo prevent iin- bill from
passing the commission. I wind Mr.
Clem Dunbar, who Is a member of
Hie commission to vole against Hie
hill.”
(’apt. .1 Coleman Dempsey, of the
Richmond Hutwirs Hiild: "I think
that if the bill passes il will be the
worst tiling tlmt could happen to tlm
militia, ll means that we will bn
worse off than wo were before tlm
Dlek bill came into effect ’
Lieut, Rodney Cohen of the Cllneii
Hill 's s;.ld thal he did not cam lo
express iilmself.
Lieut. Thomas Stafford, of the Itteh
'iioiul lliisshis, said: "I am at'ilnsl
Ihe bill because I tli'nlt Hint t will
do Hie militia harm. The bill menus
that military will have to depend on
the state for everything and as tlm
state will mu have much money to al
low the militia, without the govern
ment epprnprlallon, w '' would not be
in any w ay as well fixed as we are
now.”
Several ol the officers were nut of
the ell', and H was Impossible lo see
any more of them.
