BEFORE JUDGE CANN IN I ANNAH SATURDAY Mr. Knight Intimated That He Would Withdraw From Receivership If Claims Ware Pushed So At To Bankrupt Qood, People. The Savannah Morning News yesterday has the following article on the hearing of the report of the Bank of Waycross receivers before Judge Cann In Savannah on Satur day: Reports on the progress of the re ceivership crested for tie Bank of Waycross by Judge Cann two weeks ago. were heard by the court In cham bers In Savannah yesterday. "The hearing was of a rather in formal nature. Amopg those pres ent were the Hon. A. M. Knight of Waycross and W. M. Davant of Sa vannah. the receivers, and the law yers representing the various Inter eats Involved. no time during the hearing there was an apparent lack of har mony between the receivers, wlw reference 10 a question cf policy con nected wll|h the liquidation of .the suspended bank's assets. But the hearing came to a close with all pres ent thoroughly understanding each other. Mr. Knight, who Is president of the First National Bank of Waycross which was an assignee of tho Ban* of Waycross from Nov. 23 to the date of iho creation of the receiver ship, made a statement In explana tion of the small amount of collec tlons that have been made so far. It appeared that Mr. Davant, tho co-receiver favors a more active ef fort toward the winding up of tho business of the bank's estate, while Mr. Knight thinks that conservatism should characterize the actions of the receivers. 4 To force collections, ho explained, would put several good people In bankruptcy In jWaytrost, while a conservative policy toward them would allow them to work out their trouble In time. Mr. Davant through bis attorney, stood for a dil igent administration of the estate. The men appeared to be only at variance on a question of business policy. If the receivers were ex pected to press collections on the talk's accounts In a way that bank- Pt come of the bank's debtors, Mr. Knight Intimated that he would withdraw from tfhe pouldon <of re ceiver. , Flans for the most economical ad ministration of the estate were dis cussed. Judge Cann made It clear hat he wishes the business or the bank wound up with the least neces sary cost, nad yet he desires tnat crythlng be done properly.

WARREN l-OTT, Ordinary, AS TO PASSENGER RATES. It Is n safe statement that the pas senger ratu In Vlrgln'a, North Caro lina, 8outh Carolina, Georgia and Alabama will bo two.and a half cents per mile. Tbls will be the rate In the states and It will bo the Interstate rate—at least, It looks that nay now. dome of the roads that traverso those states are holding out against It, but there are lr.JIcatloaa that they will yield. Tho rate In North Carolina was two and a quarter cents, but tha Leg islature was convened to accept tho Southern's proporitlon of two and a half cents. No nctlon has been taken by Virginia as yet, but tho legislature of that state will, no doubt, accept the Southern's proposition. Tho Geor gia Railroad Commission has arrang ed for the two and n- half cent rale for all the chief roads, and It wilt permit a little higher rato to a few of tho small and weak lines. Tha rato Is two and t quarter In Alabama but the Loililntura In that state will como to tho two and a half cent rate. For a time nt least, we may ex pect wtjrse xervlce than wo 7mvU heretofore bad. There Is much com plaint of the can on some of the lines. It would,have been better all things considered, to have let tne FORECLOSURE EY ADVERTISE MENT UNDER POWER OF SALE. GEORGIA. WARS COUNTY.
