COI,. L. P. GRANT'S LETTER ON THE
WESTERN RAILROAD.
The early hour at which our editorial page
has to go to press, in order to save the West
Point mail, prevented our giving such notice
of t'lis admirable letter as its merits desarved,
in our Sunday morning’s issue.
Whatever objections have been heretofore
urged by the opponents of this road against
the city of Atlanta going forward to increase
her subscription, in order to a secure its speedy
construction, are hero so clearly and forcibly
and calmly answered as to leave it no longer
a matter of doubt as to the policy, and we
may add the necessity of increasing the sub
scription. Col. Grant, after a careful investi
gation of the survey and actual observation of
the country gives it as his opinion that the
road can be substantially built with iron rails
weighing fifty-six pounds per yard, at an aver
age cost of ($23,000) twenty-three thousand
dollars per mile. He next shows that the gen
eral features and area of the country tribu
tary t> this road resembles very much that
through which the Western and Atlantic
Railroad passes, except that the lands are
much richer in agricultural and mineral pro
ducts. He say8:
In the product of lumber our road will
command a large business. The poorer qual
ities of ridge lands along our route are gen
erally covered with unculled forests of a su
perior growth of yellow pine. The diminu
tion of pine forests along the other roads has
rendered it difficult to obtain a good quality
( f himber in Atlanta, even at high rates. This
has forced into use inferior qualities, to the
detriment of the consumer. Our road will
supply this lack for many years.
The deposits of iron and coal in Northern
Georgia, Tennessee and Alabama, are attract
ing capital from the Northern States and Eu
rope. Developments along the railroad in
operation are in rapid progress. The con
sumption of iron has reached such large fig
ures as to constitute its production one of the
leading branches of industry in the world.
Where the ore, fuel and flux for smelting are
convenient to each other, the profits of smelt
ing are so large as to seem fabulous to those
who heve not the data by which to estimate
the cost of producing pig iron.
A nnmber of furnaces are now in blast
along the range near Birmingham, and prepa
rations are making for many more. Invest
ments have been made in these deposits by
capitalists of the Northern States and Eng
land, with a view of extensive smelting and
manufacturing works. The estimated yield
of this range of red hematite ore beds would
tax the capacity of ten double track railways
for two hundred years.
In the lateral valleys of the Chockolocco,
two furnaces are in blast, and others in pro
cess of erection. By the time we can com
plete our road, there will be tributary to it
one lull train load of pig Iron per day, and
this tonnage will expand in increasing ratio.
The crude ore is now being shipped to points
in Illinois, by the Red Mountain Iron and
Coal Company, at a clear profit of four dollars
per ton.
I was informed by an intelligent gentleman
from Ohio, that this company had been offered
a contract to supply GOO,000 tons of ore to
the same parties in Illinois at the same price.
The contract was declined.
Col. Grant says nobody need to doubt lor
ono moment the existence of the most won
derful coal and iron mines along the line of
this road to be found in the world.
They may rest perfectly assured that the
most sanguine representations made to them
on the subject did not exaggerate the supply.
The coal measures of Alabama are known as
the Coosa, the Cahaba and Warrior fields.
Our route crosses the two former, and ter
minates about ten miles east of the Western
border of the latter. The Britiih Consul of
Mobile, in a review of the resources of Ala
bama sent hi9 government, estimated the pro
duct of these coal fields at 52,250,000,000
tons—equal to the maximum caDacity of
twenty double track railways for more than
600 j ears.
Now, this coal can be delivered in At
lanta by the Western Railroad at $4 pet ton,
which alone would save to the consumers of
fuel here more than a hundred thousand dol
lars per annum.
Owners of coal land in the Warrior field
offered to contract in advance of the comple
tion of onr road, to deliver the Warrior coal
in Atlanta at $5 per ton—our freight charge
to be limited to 1^ cents per ton per mile.
We can do better. The Coo6a and Cahawba
coals can be laid down in Atlanta at $4 per
ton. This estimate gives $1 90 for royalty
and cost of mining, and ten cents for freight
age per ton.
Col. Grant then proceeds to show that the
completion of this road will give us the short
est, most practicable and easily worked of all
the lines to the Pacific. That—
The distance from New York to Omaha by
one of the shortest, if not the shortest line, is
1,101 miles. From Omaha to San Francisco
is 1,907 miles, making a total of 3,308 miles.
By comparing distances of unfinished links,
we have the following comparison of routes
Irom New York to Fort Smith, Texas:
1st. Vis Philadelphia, Pittsburg, St. Louis sad Sher
man, 1,710 miles.
2d, Vis Baltimore, Cincinnati, Louisville, Memphis,
Litte Bock and Longview, 1,780 miles.
3d. Vis Washington, Lynchburg. Cbattauoega, Mem
phis, Little Bock and Longview, 1,670 miles.
4th. Via Washington, Lynchburg. Chattanooga, Meri
dian and Shreveport. 1.680 miles.
5th. Via Washington. Bichmond, Atlanta,Georgia West
ern, Meridian and Shreveport, 1.740 miles,
r.tb. Via Washington, Richmond. Atlanta, Montgome-
ery, Meridian and Shreveport, 1,760 miles.
Nos. 1, 2 and 3, will have complete lines
to Fort Worth by the end of 1874. Nos. 4
and 6 will probably have complete lines to
the same point by the end of 1875. The com
pletion of No. 5 will depend upon our ability
to push the Great Western to a connection
with the Alabama and Chattanooga.
The letter next proceeds to explain why
Atlanta would certainly reap the great bene
fits to be derived from this connection and
asks:
What are the prerequisites, then, fer future
trade centres in the bouth ? I answer—alti
tude above the draining rivers sufficient to
reach a pure atmosphere, good freestone
water, and ample railroad facilities to insure
low rates of transportation in receiving and
distributing all classes of freights. Does not
Atlanta meet all these requirements more fully
than any city yet founded in the South ? The
history of this city is a complete verification
of the theory I have advanced. Without the
pecuniary or moral aid ot a single capitalist
or leading representatve man in the incep
tion—with immediate surroundings of meagre
^promise—Atlanta has grown to the rank of
*eeond cj# in Georgia. Slowly in ine
outset, but in increasing ratio from year
to year, Atlanta has absorbed much of the
areas of trade, once controlled by the old es
tablished marts of Augusta, Macon, Colum
bus and Montgomery; all of which ware cit
ies of considerable importance when the sit-
of Atlanta was a forest In what eonsiste
this marked advantage, until recently nnaps
predated by our most sagacious and far-4
ingmeo? It is
while Augusta and Columbus each has water
S ower of very large capacity. The prepon-
eratxng advantage of Atlanta is in a dry,
pure, invigorating atmosphere. This enables
all classes to reside hero during the entire
year, with complete immunity from climatic
fevers and the enervating effects of a humid
miasmatic atmosphere. For the same reasons
all outside may visit Atlanta, on business or
for recreation, at all seasons, with security
from local sickness, if not with a fair chance
of improved health.
Col. Grant very confidently states that in
his opinion the gross earnings of the Western
Railroad will exceed $2,500,000 per annum in
less than ten years, and that any investment
which the city may make will be a paying one.
He sums up the advantages to the city and
the reasons for building the road in the fol
lowing, which we print in full:
It will give Atlanta cheap coal
of excellent quality, cheapening the
price of fuel for domestic purposes, and
stimulating investments in many branch
es of manufacturing. It opens to Atlanta the
great mining fields of Alabama, destined to
contain a great industrial population, by a
shorter line than to any other leading market
How important, then, that we enter these
fields at an early day, and give direction to
the trade during its growth. Atlanta started
out with an earnest purpose to construct
the Georgia Western railroad snfficicently far
to give a basis on which the mortgage bonds
of the Company could be negotiated, to
complete it. The city has made a cash sub
scription of three hundred thousand dollars.
Another of like amount from the city, and
the payment of the Georgia railroad supscrip-
tion, will complete and equip the first thirty
miles. This consummated, I would feel that
'V completion of the whole road was as-
suivd. In this I may be over sanguine, but I
have never known a line of equal strength, in
resources for business, with a liko basis of
credit, fail to command means for its comple
tion.
A further subscription by the city is op
posed by a minority of our citizens, mainly
on the ground of increased taxation. This
subject should be fairly and candidly stated.
The individuals composing the board of di
rectors are interested in common with all our
tax-paying citizens, in proportion to the real
estate and personal property held by each.
They have no direct interest to be advanced
by th9 construction of the Georgia Western
E'tlroad other than is common to all our
citizens.
The taxable wealth of Atlanta is the result
ant of the commercial, industrial and pro
fessional interests built up, and attracted here
by a common junction ot four lines of rail
roads. I do not include the Atlanta and Rich
mond Air-Line for the reason that the portion
operated from Atlanta has yet had only a small
effect upon the general interests of the city.
In less than three months hence this line
will be opened through, when I expect to see
our merchants absorb a large share of the
trade tributary to the line between Atlanta
and Charleston. But to retarn to the main
subject The taxable property of Atlanta is
assessed at $13,000,000 for real estate, and
$4,000,000 for personal property. If this is
the result of lour roads, will not the Georgia
Western, vastly superior in resources to the
average of the four, give a proportional result.
This, at 1$ ^ 'cent the present rate, will
increase the receipts from taxes $60,000.
Add a like proportion for all other sources
of income, $20,000, and we have $80,000 ad
ditional revenue without increasing the rate
of taxation. By the timo the Georgia West
ern can be opened through, Atlanta will need
50,000 tons of coal per year, and this con
sumption will increase rapidly.
I have before shown that the Georgia West
ern can lay down coal in Atlanta at a cost of
$4 per ton. Whether the coal all comes over the
Georgia Western or not, it is evident that the
price must come to or below this standard, as
1 have allowed a margin of fifty cents per ton
in royalty and cost of mining over what I be
lieve will be the cost. The average price of
coal in Atlanta for the past two years has ex
ceeded $6.50 per ton. Rating it at $6, with
out other sources of supply, an I we have a
saving of $100,000 per year in the item of
fuel, which enters into the household ex
penses of every citizen ; and the cost of all
articles manufactured here—for whether coal
or wood be used, a reduction in the price of
the former will force a corresponding reduc
tion in the price of the latter.
We have given lengthy extracts from this
strong letter. The fact of it is, when we
read it and began to cut extracts from it, we
had almost decided to reprint the entire let
ter. Col. Grant is the President of the West
Point Railroad—one of the very roads which
it has been argued would be injured by the
building of the Western ; but we are
glad to find that he who ought to be the best
informed does not take this narrow view of
the question. He is a very large owner of real
estate in Atlanta, and like Col. Adair and
others who are also large real estate owners,
he clearly sees the immense benefit in the fu
ture which the city is to derive from this en
terprise, and therefore does not hesitate to
urge its construction by an additional sub
scription by the Council.

New York, July 20, 1873.
Weather warm and clear. Additional excitement
caused in Brooklyn financial circles by the announce
ment that Judge McCue, one of the largest stockholders
of the Brooklyn Trust Company, and on whose appli
cation it was
forced to suspend payment.
He has, since Mills’ death, been transferring his real
c state in heavy blocks to his wife, to secure himself
from loss in case the company proves insolvent. The
transfers, which embrace one lot valued at ninety
thousand dollars, are first made out by McCue to Ed
gar M. Cullen, aud then by the latter to McCue’s wife.
additional losses.
Iu addition to the deposits hitherto reported, the
United States Government bad two hundred thousand
dollars with the company, N. H. Clement thirteen
thousand dollars, and Dr. Bryant twenty-three thou
sand dollars. The more searching the investigation,

of the concern appears to be. Secretary M. T. Rad -
man denies that he is also a defaulter, asserting that
the Connecticut town bonds furnished as security wiU
fully cover the loan to him from tho company of
thirty-four thousand dollars.
The belief that Mr. Mills, late President of Brook,
lyn Trust Company,
COMMITTED SUICIDE
is becoming quite general. It ia said that ou the day
before his death some of the directors of the bank in
formed him that an examination of bis account would
be commenced next day. On Monday afternoon Mr.
Mills obtained a full settlement of his land agent and
deposited a check, which ho received from the latter,
in the Nassau Bank
TO ms WIFE’S CREDIT.
After this transaction he settled tho accounts of his
butcher and baker, which were usually paid at the
end of each month. If well authenticated rumors
circulated last evening are to be accepted, Mills’ con
duct

port to the suicide theory. It is staled that he did
not retire to his bedroom until a very late hour, aud
next morning it was found that his bed bad uot been

these facts were studiously concealed, but yesterday
those in possession of the facts coucluded tint further
secrecy was useless. It is said in Brooklyn to-day
that the examination of the books of the bank as far
as prosecuted last night develops the loss of eight
hundred thousand dollars.
Latest Facts and Hu mors Concerning the De
falcation.
New York, July 21, 1873.
The following are the latest facts and rumors as to
affairs of Brooklyn Trust Company : The capital
stock of tke Company was half a million, but
this, it is said, ha s all been absorbed. There is three
hundred tliousaud dollars' worth of what may be con
sidered worthless loans. The defalcation of M IIb is
between one hundred aud fifty thousand dollars and
two hundred thousand dollars, aud Mr. Redman’s
loins will amount to fully thirty-four thoucand
tho prospect of depositors realizing anything for
some timo is uot considered very encouraging,
Last Friday or Saturday, Mills stated to his sou
that ho felt worried about his accounts iu the
Trust Company—that it was overdrawn. His
then said to him, ‘'Father, you had better
attend to that at once, something might happen to
you,” he roplied, “I’ll look into it lightaway.” He ac
cordingly made arrangements with a capitalist for a
loan to cover his account with the Trust Company,
which was.to havo been negotiated on Tuesday, the
day of his death. It is slated that three mouths
ago Mr. Lowo resigned the Vice Presidency on
tho score of ill health a few weeks since.
It was suggested by Messrs. Chaunccy, Rock
well and ollieis, that it would be well to inves
tigate affairs of the Company in order that some
decision might be made, as the Georgia Railroad
bonds and tbeirtiue value is ascertained. Mills ob
jected. and tried to postpone tho investigation, al
though at the time no defalcation ou hiB part
was suspected iu the objection, he was suspected
by Rodman, the secretary. There appears to have
been occasioual discussiou among tho directors, and

Mechanics Bank gang. Monday last before his death
the former requested investigation he postpnoed

Wheu it was discovered that irregularities
existed, the Secretary admitted that Mills

dollars would cover the defalcation, lie said when the
irregularities commenced, he remonstrated with
Mr. Mills, who replied to him invariably,
be did not want to hear anything about it, as it
would be all right before long. The Company has

A Long Puff of a Bank Receiver—Some of
Barr’s Stuff.
Washington, June 21, 1873.
jCoL Charles C*6e, Receiver of the First Nalionaj
Bank or New Oileans, has just arrived, and reports tq
the Comp roller of the Currency that he has intelli
gence from Messrs. Jerons and Rylcy, his solicitors
in Liverpool, that the House of Lords has recently de
cided tho last of a series of Chancery
i in his favor, thna securing some
$70,000 or moro to the fund for the general cred
itors of the bank. Col. Case may justly congratulate
himself upon this result. When the bank failed some
six years eiuco sundry creditors, who had bought its
bills on the Bank of Liverpool, sought to
secure payment of their claims
full by instituting proceedings in chancery in
England, by which they tied up peudiug litigation,
and hoped finally to appropriate between two and
tbreo hundred thousand dollars then on deposit iuthe
Liverpool bank, upon tbe theory that there had been a
specific appropriation of fuuds to pay the several
bills as they wore negotiated. They seemed
fident of success, and many othor creditors, and oven
some emiaont lawyeis were more thau fearful that
this large sum would be lost to the goneral fund, but
the reccivor, after a careful consideration of the facta,
concluded that the suits ought to bo defeated, both
bccauHo these facts did not warrant the theory of any
specific appropriation, aud because it was i
within tho powers of a national bank to make such
appropriation on a true bill as against tho contingency
of its own interviewing insolvency, he resolved, there
fore, to contest the cases, and did so. The decision of
the Vice chancellor was adverse to him and ho appealed
and some two years since the Lord High Chancellor
aud three Judges with him sitting, pronounced
elaborate opinions, reversing the Vice Chancellor’s do
cree, aud decreeing the money to be paid to tho
celver. All but two of the claimants acquiesced
in this docroe, these two acting, as is un
derstood, upon the advice of J. P. Boujainlu
formerly United States Senator, now a practicing bar
rister and Queen’s counsel In Loudon, took an appeal
to the House of Lords, thus tying np fifteen thousand
pounds of tbe fund two years longer. This appeal,

Brilliant Silver Wedding.
Yesterday was the twenty-fifth anniversary of the
marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Dr. Chas. IUuschenburg,
and the occasion was celebrated in a befitting manner
by their numerous friends, who 'n matte called at the
residence to extend congratulations. The Dr. and his
estimable lady were united in tbe bonds of
matrimony in Tenuessee, in July, 1848. They
blessed with several childreu, and are also grand
parents. In the evening a large number of ladies
and gentlemen assembled at the Doctor’s residence
to honor the event—the era in the lives of husbaud
and wifo—to enjoy themselves, and we are quite sure
that all went as “ merry as a marriage
bell,” for the beautiful lights that
illuminated the premises shone out on •' fair women
and brave men.” The Doctor and his lady were made
the recipients of many valuable, appropriate aod
beautiful presents, consisting in part of solid silver
ware. Among the list and variety we noticed
from the Atlanta Turn Vorein—a sterling siver
pitcher, etc. The crowd did not disperse until
a late hour, and during tho evening was entertained
with inspiring music from tho Gate City Band. It was
a highly pleasant affair, aud we trust that the parties
will live to enjoy tho anniversary of their golden
diDg, which is due twenty-five years hence.
