A foul and unprovoked .murder wits committed on the Macon and Dublin train that left Macon Wednesday af ternoon loaded vvlUt the visitors who came to Macon to a>ttem] the Populist rally on Wednesday. Before leaving Macon a largo portion of the excursionists, both white and’ black, got gjrunk and us noon as the train pulled out from the depot they began to raise a general row and soon became so boisterous that the conduc tor found It necessary to call to . his assistance Mr. J. K. Going of Dan ville, who was on the train. Mr. Going did all he could to quiet the boisterous crowd, and finally he and the < ductor got all quiet except a few drunken negroes. Mr. Going told the negroes they must keep quiet, where upon Alex Rosier, who was the prin cipal disturber, pulled his pistol hint shot Mr. Going In the abdomiual cav ity, The negro immediately Jumped from the train and a number of the passenger* who witnessed the cow ardly deed fired at him, about thirty shots being fired, none of which is thought to have taken efTect. Rosier, however, returned the fire and shot an unknown negro In the knee. The train was stopped and the passengers pur sued Rosier for the purpose of lynching him, but he got away. •Mr. Gdnf was taken from the train at Danville Mid physicians sent for, but ho did not Improve Dr. tub- m Of Macon, the road's physician, was sent for and he left for Danville yester day morning on a special train. Dr. Gibson found Mr. Going In a. 0rttic.1l condition, but did all that was possible to do foi him. Dr. Gibson Is unable at present 4o tell the exact nature of the wound, but Is < the opinion that the shot will prove fatal. The shooting occurred at Dry Branch, In Llibb county, and Sheriff Wes toot* will make every effort to catch the murderous negro, who is still at Urge. {Rosier bears the name of being a desperate, mean negro and should he fall Into the hand s of Mr. Going’s friends he wfll fare badly.

THE JUNIOR SECURITIES Tho Central Railroad Will Be Reor ganized on a Basis to Protect Them. OUTLOOK OF SOUTHWESTERN Tit* ll.OOfl Share* la ss Invillmrut < the SoHthern Hallway Company— Talk *f Mouthw*stora's Debt Tut on the Central. The new reorganization plan of the Central railroad, no far as it baa been announced, is still the subject of dis cussion among all those interested In the road’s securities or the future of the property, says the Savannah Morn ing News. ' Kvery now and then some new feat ure of It Is brought out and discussed pro and con. There 1b no doubt In the minds of any one now that one of the main objects of the plan was <to do all that could’ be done for the Junior securities. Under the circum stances this waa one of Che necessities, especially so far as the Block* is'con cerned, as the majority stock Is In the hands of those who wiH be chiefly In strumental In reorganizing the prop erty. Drexel, Morgan & Co., whose to- tdrest In the Southern (Railway Com pany Is so large, are not going to al low that stock to suffer beyond what tit Is compelled. T^e debentures were of more im portance to people in this section than to those In Now York, but Receiver Comer was on hand to-look after the Interests of Southern security holders who had suffered moat in the road’s failure, and the debentures were placed as high In the scalevos possible next to tho mortgage indebtedness. Sloes the plan 'ihh been looked on in this light the road's securities have had a decided upwurvl tendency. The market in all classes of the junior se curities has been on the upward move, and it Is believed as file plan develops the upward tendency will toe still more marked. There has been some talk about It toeing unjust to the stockhold ers of the Central railroad to make that road assume a $2,000,000 Indebted ness which 'belongs to the Sauthfwest- ern railroad under the Judgment <>f fhe court. Just -why this was done has not yet* been nude folly clear, but it Is believed that those who had the mat ter In charge took every detail into consideration and did not act imau- visedly in any Instailce. The stockholders at nil events* U seem:*, will get more than they hau hoped. Tho Sbuthwestern will undoubt edly earn something more than its rent al charges are to be under the plan. These charges will bo $250,000, while under the present lease they are $350,- 000. The Southwestern rend has earned up to April 1 of thl» yesr, In Just nine nrontlis. $350,000, which is more than Its present rental for the entire year.,. If the HurpluM earnings above the amount required tb pay the rental umler..,the new plan are turned Into the general earnings of the Central every year, they will go a long way toward paying In terest on other securities, and in .this way tho stockholders will no doubt be ns much or more benefited than if sinne other arrangement lind been made. , There has been some tnlk as to why the Augusta And Savannah railroad, which does not owe a dollar, was given only 5 per cent, on il« stock, while tho Southwestern, which had n large ..tjetot on hand, was relieved of that <l«-l>t 'and given 5 per cent, ns well. Sbmo who do not undera.nnd the situation look upon this as slightly unjust to ih.* Augusta and Savannah railroad. The difference, however. Ilea In the earning power of the two properties. The reorganization plan had to be based on tho earning power of the properties concerned. The Southwestern is capitalized nt about $15,000 p**r mile, while, the Augusta and Havrnnah Is capitalized at about $20,000. Not bnly tilts, but «th© building of the Spilth'Bound railroad, which is oper ated In connection with the Port Royal and Augusta, between Savannah and Augusta, has diverted much of the bu»- lnc*M which formerly went by the Au- gUMta nnd Savannah. In these atnl oth er ways the earning power t>f the prop erty, comparatively speaking, has been decreased and la Ices than that of the Southwestern. PRESS ACCOUNT. New Yrk, July 5.—Receiver Comer of the Georgia Central has been In on- fer'ftco in th s city for three week* with thvse who are working out the pi m of roorganlx.itIon of the road. He says that the absolute fixed charges on the property far the first two year* under the plan now about p rfected will be ft,900,000. They will then in- ore i«e $50,000 p< r annum until 1901, when they win remain nt $2,150,000 n year. After the ttv d charge then* will lx* in isMup of $8*000,000 5 per cent, income bonds, class “A/* noil-cumula tive, to be used for Liking up the de- Untur.s and certain guaranteed bonds dollar for dollar.

Why the changes ore to bo made, if they really are contemplated by Mr. Kline, Is a mystery, as It is ;i nell kmnvu fact that a more efficient or ac commodating set of officials were never loath'd in tbU city than the present wUcs. There- are a great many rail road people, liowever, who do not be lieve that any changes will be made, although there are some who stoutly maintain that Jthe changes will l»e mode In the nmr future aud before the rcorguulzution goes into effect.
