SPALDING’S PRIMARY.
BARTLETT LEADS BYAhUtdfi
MAJORITY YESTERDAY.
Several Precinct* Yet to Hear From,
llut ft t* Thought That the Gen¬
eral Result Will Not he
Changed.
The primary in this eouaty passed
off quietly yesterday and Bartlett
carried it by a good majority.
The friends of Hon. T. B. Cabaniss
felt hopeful yesterday morning and
were sanguine that he would lead In
this county, but the ground thnt he
had lost while attending to his duties
at the National Capitol, could not be
overcome in the limited time which
was given him to present his dams
to bis constituents.
The race, however, which has been
made under many difficulties as re¬
gards the present incumbent, will be
satisfactory to the people but will
not lessen the feeling of regard that
is felt tor Col. Cabaniss in this coun¬
ty. His explanation of bis position night
made in his speech Tuesday
made him many votes and could he
or bis friends have had the time to
have spoken in each precinct of the
county, there is little doubt but that
be would have carried the county.
The result so far as could be ob¬
tained last night, is given below:
Cabaniss..........„..........................216 Bartlett..........£.........................436
Whitfield.............................. 2
Following is the vote by district:
Griffio—Cabaniss, 158; Bartlett,
244.
Africa—Cabaniss, 3; Bartlett 98.
Cabins—Cabaniss, 29, Bartlett, 16;
Whitfield, 1.
Mt. Zion—Cabaniss, 15; Bartlett,
9; Union—Cabaniss, Whitfield, 1. Bartlett, 41.
3;
Line Creek—Cabaniss, 8; Bartlett,
28.
The above vote, which is light,
shows a majority for Bartlett of
220 .

MORE THAN A MILLION.
The Ceotrol’s Mainstem Beat It* Last
Year’s Record bv Over #200,000.
Since the new order oi the United
States ciicuit court, providing for
the fliiog of of monthly accounts by
the receivers the Central Railroad
and BankingCompany, the accounts
have been filed with the clerk from
time to time as they have been made
up, and enough of the accounts up
to date have been filed to Bhow
about wbat the property has done
duiing the last year, that is.tbeyear
ending Jane 30.
The mainstem earned gross for
the twelve months ending at that
time $2,522,935 33, while expenses
of $1,510,127.58 left net earnings
of $1,012,807.85. This fa an excel¬
lent showing for the mainstem for
the year, and is more than half
what the entire property was ex¬
pected to earn for the year. The
earnings of tbs mainstem for April
were $148,531.88, expenses $112,-
430,46, leaving net earnings oi $>36,
100 37; lor May the gross earnings
were $156,986 75, expenses $102,-
762.87, leaving net earnings of $54,
223.89; and for June the gross earn,
ings, were $146,221.17, expenses
$97,170.82, leaving net $49,050 35.
The mainstem has shown excellent
net earnings lor every month of the
year. The increase in the net earn
iugfortbel2 months ending June
30,1894, over those of the same pe¬
riod tor 1893 was $221,282.10,
which, considering the dullness ol
almost every season, is a lemarkn-
ble showing.
EARNED MORE THAN ITS RENTAL.
The earnings of the Southwestern
for the year show op well. The gross
for the twelve months was $1,008,-
912 99. expenses $719,130 65, leav¬
ing oec earnings of $379,782 34.
The earnings of this road for June
did not show $58,424.73, op quite so and well, the the
gross being net
only $4,628.63. The Southwestern,
however, has shown itself to be ou«
of the best paying is properties in the
Bystem, and it for this reason that
th _je reorganization committee is
making it what is considered so lib¬
eral an offer.
Tbe earnings of the Augosta & Sa¬
vannah railroad for the year do not
equal tbe amount of tbe annual
rental under the contract. Tbe gross
is $201 854 51, with expenses of
$145,622 01, leaving net earnings of
$56,232 50, while the annual rental
under the contract is about $70,000
Tbe gross earnings for June were
$10.71108 aud the net only
$1,680 92.
THE STEAMSHIP COMPANY FOR SIX
MONTHS.
The Upson County railroad shows
a deficit of earnings from expenses
for the year of $1,101.16, and for
June a deficit of $204 70. Tbe net
earnings of tbe bank for June were
$187.40 Tbe earnings and expenses
of the Ocean Steamship the Company
are given only for six months
ending June 30. The gross to $801
278 81. expense* $544,337 78. leav¬
ing net earnings of $27,936 03.
The Ocean Steamship Company lost
money during-the month of June,
showing a deficit of $3,206 95 be¬
tween tbe earnings and operating
expenses. The Savannah and Atlantic rail¬
road, otherwise known as tbe Tybee
lailroad, made gross dating the
twelve months ending June 30, $16,*
258.61, while tbe expenses w»re$lO,-
819 82, leaving net $5,439 79. The

MR- GRAY RETIRES
From the Superlatendenpy of the
Georgia Midland.
M. E. Gray, superintendent of the
Georgia Midland A Gulf railroad,
will retire from the service of that
company tomorrow. Be has been
connected with the road since its in¬
ception; was one of the incorpora¬
tors, treasurer of the construc¬
tion company that built it,
aud has been its superintendent since
it ran its first train.
Under bis superintendence the road
has made a moat enviable record for
safety, fast time and regularity with
which trains are run, and courteous
employes. Dull times, light traffic
and a necessity for further reductions
io expenses, have brought about a
consolidation of the offices of general
manager and superintendent.
Mr. Gray has a host of friends in
Columbus and along the fine of the
road who will regret exceedingly to
bear of hie retirement.
Mr. Gray’s ability is of a high or¬
der, and he will not remain long nut
of the harness. His qualifications
entitle him to a very high piace_in
the railroad world.—[Columbus 'Jolumbt En-
