Capt. John Davis, of Albany, with his wife
came over with Capt. Raoul in his private car
and spent yesterday in visiting the different
manufactories of Columbus. They both ex

a southern man and Georgian he was proud <>f

Bv virtue of the resolution of the mass meeting

J. W. Jackson and J. W. Johnston: alternates,
E. E. Yonge, J. F. Flournoy. T. S. Fontaine and
Price Gilbert. If any of these gentlemen cannot
attend the convention, they are requested to
notify Mr. Redd so that he can make another
appointment.
Evans A Howard.
The above named firm of young druggists have
just bought out the business of J. P. Turner Jfc
Bro., and will continue the business at their old
stand, as will be seen by their advertisement in
another column. Messrs. Evans & Howard are
fully up to the modern standard, which requirers
a druggsst to he educated, thorough and careful.
A prescription written wrong and sent to them
would be deterred at once, and their patrons run
no risks. Their goods arc as cheap as they can
be sold after being honestly bought, and their
representation as to quality cau be implicitly re
lied upon. A prosperous career may be predicted
for them in their new venture. Those who de
serve it. succeed.
Grimes the SeronJ Choice.
Sheriff Lipscomb, of Heard county, is in the
city. In conversation with an Enquirer-Sun re
porter last night, he said that the report that Col.
Harris is the second choice of the congressional
district of Heard county is incorrect. Ho says
that he knows positively of his own knowledge •
that three of the delegates will support Hon.
Thomas W. Grimes for second choice, and he be
lieves the other two will do the same. The vote
"of the county was about 240 for Freeman, and
195 for Grimes, which is most complimentary
to the latter gentleman who is comparatively un
known to the people of Heard, sheriff Lipscomb
is a very intelligent and observant gentleman,
and he says he confidently believes that If Mr.
Grimes goes into the convention with sixteen
votes ftom this cud of the district, he will be
nominated. The delegates from Heard county
arc I J. Stephens. M T. Aubrv, F. s. Lofton. P.

Tho annual meeting of the stockholders of the
Mobile and Girard railroad was held at the old
depot building in Girard yesterday morning at 11
o’clock. A large number of the stockholders, ac
companied by their families, came up on the ex
cursion train from points along the route of the
road.
On motion of Mr. G. W. Dillingham, the meet
ing was organized by the election of Judge W. H.
Brannon as chairman, and on motion of Mr. N.
N. Curtis. Mr. J. M. Frazer was elected secretary.
I Messrs. G. Gunby Jordan, G. W. Dilllingham
and J. M. Frazer were appointed a committee to
, ascertain if a majority of the stock was represent
ed. The committee reported in the affirmative.
The annual reports of the officers were received,
and on motion of Mr. Jordan their readiug was
suspended, as they had already been published.
' Mayor Grimes, of the special committee ap
pointed at the last annual meeting to investigate
1 the books and affairs of the company, stated
that the committee had performed its duty and
made a report,which had already been published.
The committee had nothing to say in addition to
what was said in that report.
On motion of Mr. Peabody the thanks of the
meeting were tendered the committee and it was
discharged.
, Mr. Dillingham offered the following resolu
tion :
Resolved. That the chair appoint a committee
three to confer with the authorities of theC’en-
tral Railroad and Banking Co. of Georgia with
the power to act in effecting a lease of the Mo
bile and Girard railroad for a period of ninety-
nine years, at a rate not less than two per cent,
per annum.
Captain Roaui suggested to Mr. Dillingham
that if he wanted to have any success he had
better omit the limit.
Mr. Dillingham replied that he would like to
have more if possible.
Mr. Peabody suggested that the power to make
the lease should not be given the committee. He
thought the committee should have only power
»o negotiate the lease, and the board of directors
effect it upon the terms agreed upon by the com
mittee.
Mr. Dillingham accepted the suggestion and
the resolution as amended was as follows:
Resolved. That the chair appoint a committee
of three to confer with the authorities of the Cen
tral Railroad and Banking company of Georgia
for the purpose of effecting a lease of the Mobile
and Girard railroad for a period of ninety-nine
years at a rate for dividend of not less than two
dollars per share per annum upon capital stock,
and four dollars per share on preferred capital
Mock . and if said negotiation is successful then
they shall report same to the board of directors
of this company, who shall be authorized and
are instructed to complete the lease.
J. M. Russell, Esq., asked if under the resolu
tion the road could be leased to any other than
, the Central railroad.
The chairman replied that the resolution
looked only to negotiations with the Central
railroad.
Mr. Russell asked if the Central railroad held a
majority of the stock, what was the necessity of
the resolution ?
Mr. Peabody said the Central does not own a
majority of the stock.
Air. Murphree, of Troy, moved that the mini
mum of two per cent, be stricken out. The mo-
tion wue seconded by Capt. J. W. Woo?folk. 1
Mr. Russell moved that the portion of the reso
lution restricting negotiations to the Central rail-
load be stricken out. and negotiations be left
opc-n to the world. Mr. Peabody seconded the
motion.
Captain Raoul, in speaking on Mr. Murphree's
motion, -aid he did not know whether the Cen
tral railroad would be willing to pay two cent
•»u the capital stock of the Mobilennd Girard rail
road or not. He said the net earnings of the
Mobile and Girard were gradually decreasing.
The rates fixed by the commission had done much
in decreasing the earnings. The extension of the
Columbus and Western railroad will further
decrease them, and the probable extension of the
Montgomery Southern threatens another de
crease, Again, when the $80n,000 of bonds fall
<lue on which an interest of four per cent, is now-
paid. it can not he hoped that they can be renew
ed at as low a rate of interest. He thought the
r ad, however, would be more valuable if leased
to some other system than if run as an independ
ent line. He did not think, however, that the
Central would he willing to pay two percent, un
der the present conditions. He thought it better
f«»r all interested to omit the two per cent, restric
tion.
Mr. Peabody suggested that the committee
should be permitted to negotiate with any com
pany that should desire to lease the road. He
had given much thought to the subject and
wanted to see the road leased to the very best ad
vantage to the city of Columbus. He believed
the conimirtee should be given power to make ,
tlu* best terms it can and report to a called meet
ing ofthe stockholders.
Mr. Russell concurred in tile views of Mr. Pea
body.
Dr. Banks opposed Mr. Peadody’s suggestion.
He did not believe that the Central railroad
would make any offer if the lease were thrown
upon the market, lie referred to the effort to lease
the road fifteen yiars ago, and said that if
the matter had been properly managed he be
lieved the road could have been leased for 3 or 4
percent, lie did not believe in going about
hawking the road upon the market. Nobody ,
would be apt to make an oiler. He was opposed
to striking out tlu* minimum. If the Central did
not want to gi\e 2 per cent., the committee can
report that fact to the stockholders, and they
will be in in* worse condition than at present.
Tlu* Central, lie said. hail endorsed over a mill
ion dollars ofthe company’s bonds and would no
doubt do the best it could, but that company was
not a bidder for the lease and would make no of
fer.
Mr. \Yo» ifolk <1 that Dr. Bunks was mistaken
in saying that there was a limit in the first prop
osition fifteen years ago to lease the road. Tlie
iccord*. *lu>w that the committee was not limited.
Ho also took a more hopeful view of the condi
tion of the road than Capt. Raoul. The last re
port of t ol. Wadley was very encouraging. While
it may In true that the $800,000 of bonds bearing
1 per cent, cannot be renewed at as low a rate,
the homls hearing 8 per cent, can he replaced by
ti per cents, or probabh less, so that after 1889
the annual interest which the company will
have to pay will be at least $5,000 less than at
present. He also called Dr. Bank}-’attention to
the fact that the records did not show that the
Central railroad was endorser on the bonds of
the comp my for over a million dollars, and if
such was the case, it was at their own instance.
Dr. Banks said that the committee appointed
in 1871 appointed a sub-committee, which was
limited, and the Central refused to lease the road.
He said that it is a fact that the Central is en
dorser on over a million dollars of the company’s
bonds.
Captain Raoul said his statements in reference
to the condition ofthe Mobile and Girard were
not intended to discourage anybody, but were
made upon his honest convictions, experience
and observation. No one hoped more earn
estly than he to see the road leased to the best
advantage, but lie Mill believed that the Central
would be unwilling to pay two fW cent.
Mr Jordan thought that the directors should
tervention of a committee and the minimum
should be fixed at two per cent The road is in
good condition with a debt of only $12,000 a mile,
and a new steel rail track and good rolling stock, j
and he believed Captain Raoul and the directors j
j ofthe Central railroad, upon reflection, will be ;
1 willing to pay two per cent, as a business trims- i
| action.
| Captain Raoul said that speaking as an indi- j
vidual, he did not believe the Central would pay
two percent. He would suggest again that the
j minimum be stricken out. He would be willing,
so far as he is concerned, to pay something to
avoid the suspicion that the Central is operating
I the road against the Interest ofthe stockholders,
but he would not be willing to pay 2 per cent.
Mr. Dillingham offered the following as a sub- j
stitute for the original resolution and amend
ments:
Resolved, That the stockholders of the Mobile |
They Hold

The city council held its monthly meeting yes
terday afternoon at 5 o’clock. A full board was
present except Aldennen McEachren and Jo
seph.
The minutes ofthe last meeting were read and
approved.
The following monthly reports were submitted:

capital stock. colored cemetery, of which seven were non-
Kesolved, That Messrs. Jordan, Blgesand War-
nock shall be added to the directory in this nego-
, tiation, ar.d the judgment and decisions of these
gentlemen shall be final.
Mr. Russell renewed his amendment to strike
out the Central railroad and give the committee
power to negotiate with anybody.
Mr. J. S. Garrett opposed Mr. Russell's amend
ment because thpre is no other company besides
the Central that will lease the road.
Mr. Peabody proposed to strike out the Central
and give the directors free scope.
Captain Roaui said he did not desire to appear
a* opposing that proposition because the Central
desired to lease the road, but the Central had a
large interest in it which it was bound to protect.
He could not stand by and see the road leased to
another company that might totally disregard
that interest He thought the Central should
have a voice in the matter of leasing the road.
Mr. Dillingham then offered the following as a
substitute for the whole matter:
Resolved. By the stockholders of the Mobile
and Girard railroad at the annual meeting as
sembled. that the boar-1 of directors of this com- 1
pany are hereby authorized to lease the Mobile
and Girard railroad to the Central railroad and
Banking company, of Georgia, cr to any other
parties the said Central railroad and Banking :
company shall approve, for a period of ninety-
nine '99- years upon such terms as said board
may consider to the interest of the stockholder,
provided the terms of the lease are agreed to bv
Messrs. G. Gunbv Jordan. A. Illges and Jas. T.
Warnock. A stork vote was called for upon tlu*
above resolution and the result was 8328 shares
in favor of and none agaimt the resolution.
Mr. Russell offered an amendment that the ne
gotiations be referred back to a called meeting of
the stockholders for approval. A vote was taken
on the amendment and it was lost, only one vote
being cast in its favor.
A vote was then taken on Mr. D llinghani's 1
substitute fi r the whole, and it was*unanimously
adopted, 8328 votes being cast.

The chair announced that the next business in
order was the election of a president and board

pounded, while Whitehurst held them down to |
two hits. The game ran into the eighth inning,
and the Amateurs had run their score up to six-

Return of Dr. Jordan.
We were gratified to meet yesterday Dr. Seth
N. Jordan, who has just returned from a protract
ed visit to New York. During his stay in New
York I)r. Jordan was a regular visitor to Roose
velt and the New York hospitals. At the former
with l)r. Sands, and at the latter, by assistance of
Dr. Marcoe, he had ample facilities for pur
suing surgery in its various branches. The
! well-known reputation of these eminent
surgeons, and the uuequaled facilities the metro
politan hospitals afford, make a visit of this
character entertaining and instructive to one
who has achieved a reputation in the fascinating
profession of surgery. From a card in another
column his patients and friends will see that Dr.
Jordan has resumed his practice. All of these
extend a hearty greeting, and among them none
more cordially than ourselves.

D. F. Willcox, Agent Travelers' Insurance Co:
Dear Sir—A few years ago you induced me to
take out an Accident Policy in the Travelers, and
upon your persuasion I have kept it up year by
year, not at all anticipating the po*sible benefit
to accrue. But I have now to thank you for It,
as well as for the Company’s check of $353.57 ia
payment of my claim for many weeks of disabil
ity, the result of a very pai^ftil accident, threat
ening the loss of my right hand. After this ex
perience of how it is ‘‘the unexpected which al
ways happens,” I shall certainly keep up my
Accident Policy, and I shall not forget the
promptness of the Company in paying my claim
as soon as the amount could be ascertained.
Yours truly, C. E. Hochstrasser,
