RATES VERSUS EXPENSES.
rHESIDEXT EGAS ON THE IN
CREASED COST OF OPERATION.
He Give* Figures to Show the Ad
vance in Prices ol Nearly All Lines
of Railway Materials—ln Addition
to This the Long Period of AVet
AVeather Has Put the Railroads lo
Extra Expense And Act Some
Shippers Demand Lower Hates.
The Ronds. Mr. Egan Says, Must
Either Have More Business or
Higher Rates.
President Egan of the Central of Geor
gia Railway has been looking over the
figures of the cost of operation for the first
six months of the year and he is not al
together pleased with the showing made.
While the Central has been doing a good
business during the year and its monthly
statements show increased receipts over
previous years the increased cost of al
most everything in the line of materials
and supplies needed in conducting a rail
road has been so great that the net re
sults are not as satisfactory as they
might be.
•'The increased cost of m aerials and
supplies was bad enough,” said President
Egan to a Morning News reporter, .who
found him engaged in these figures yes
terday. "but in addition (o this the excess
ive rainfalls of the last three months have
caused an increase in the expense of op
erating railways which exceeds that of
previous years. The tracks require ex
traordinary care, and attention during
such a period as this, which, of course,
mean 6 extra expenditure.”
“How about the crops’.’ You will feci
♦he effect of the rains there also, will you
not?” the president was asked.
"The injury to crops cannot now be es
timated.” replied Mr. Egan, “but with
favorable weather in the future the re
sults may not be as disastrous as the
present outlook would indicate, and the
damage may be reduced to a minimum.
In railway circles these conditions cause
many anxious moments, coupled with the
fact that there is a continual effort on
the part of some shippers to obtain low
er rates of transportation. An examina
tion of the records proves that the ten
dency of transportation rates for several
years past has been downward, notwith
standing the increase in the cost of ma
terial that is used dally in constructing,
operating, repairing and maintaining rail
ways.” <
President Egan thinks it exceedingly
unreasonable on the part of the patrons
of the railways, to seek for lower rams
when the conditions are such that the
railroads ere under greater expense than
at any time for several years. There
should be a limit in all things, he thinks,
even in the reduction of railroad rates.
As an illustration of the increased cost
of many lines of railway materials during
1900, he furnished the following compari
son of figures, showing the increased per
centage of cost of materials during this
period over the same period during 1897:

"One familiar with railroading," said
Mr. Egan, "can easily see that our gross
earnings Should he largely increased in
order to meet the increased operating ex
penses that necessarily fellow the increas
ed cost of labor and material, as shown
above, and this can only be obtained by
increase of business or increase in rat s."

SILVER ASD THE CUBANS.
Some Questions n Cleveland Demo
crat Wants Answered.
Editor Savannah Morning News: I
would like (as I am an old-line Democrat)
for Mr. Bryan, or someone of his party,
to give a good reason for Wanting the gov
ernment to raise the price of silver bullion
from about 60 cents an ounce to sl.lO. when
by all proof that I can get 60 cents is Its
full value.
Chamber's Encyclopedia says that in
1873 A, D. the output of gold was $36,003,0(0,
and that of silver was about the same.
Then sixteen ounces of silver Was worth
one ounce of gold; in 1890 the output of gold
was $33,000,000, and that of silver $64,000,-
000; and, besides, nickel-plating has taken
the place in a great measure of silver.
Again, why does Mr. Bryan want more
silver coined? In 1873 there was in the
vaults and in circulation about $70,000,000 of
silver. In 1890 there was more than $600,-
000,000 of silver. Now, I claim that the
Republicans acted somewhat on the trust
order, in having so much silver coined. I
claim they did" it to help the mine owners.
But Mr. Bryan wants still more coined.
His law would permit all the silver in the
world to be coined at about sl.lO an ounce
here in the United States. Again, he
blames Mr. McKinley for not giving up
Cuba to the Cubans and negroes? McKin
ley secs that a grand mistake was made
after the Civil War in compelling the
whites here to permit (lie ignorant and re
vengeful negro to have equal rights with
themselves. It was a hell on earth in
the South; and now Mr. Bryan's advocat
ing the repetition of such n crime in
Cuba, and seconded by so many Southern
people, inclines one to the belief that the
average man is not capable of self-gov
ernment. There are a great many Eng
lish, French, Germans and Americans in
Cuba that need protection from the down
trodden. revengeful Cubans, both ns re
gards personal violence and the ose of the
ballot box. I had to pay taxes three
times in one year and had nil cows, hogs,
and sheep killed In the woods under negro
rule in Mouth Carolina. To sue .it the
courts was no redress, they were isherlff.
judge and juries. The same will be re
peated In Cuba, if the island is delivered
over to tlie Cubans, before they learn more
of self-government, and forget their treat
ment by the Spaniards.
I asked a Bryan Southern man what he
meant by wanting McKinley to give the
Cubans and negroes the government in
Cuba. He replied that he wanted the few
Northern people now settled in Cuba to be
compelled to take some of the medicine
that they gat e us after the Civil War.
tie admitted by that answer that Mr.
Bryan Is wrong. A Cleveland Democrat.

PUBLIC SCHOOL YEAR CLOSED.
GRAMMAR SCHOOL PI PILS RECEIVE
DIPLOMAS \M> ANM \LS.
The b’nr a Very Satisfactory One
to the School Authorities ~ Supt.
Ashmore Will Destu at Once the
ClanNjfiention of Pupils for ,\ext
A ear—The Lack of Accommoda
tions for the Two ( hatliam Gram
mar Schools n Serious Problem.
Many Teachers Will Go to Charles
ton Cnmention.
Yesterday marked the close of the
school year. All the schools finished up
their work during the day and children
and teachers parted until school reopens
In the fall. Diplomas were awarded the
graduates and annual certificates to the
children who earned them in the other
grades at all the grammar schools. Clos
ing exercises were held at some of the
schoo’s, those at St. Patrick’s, Massle,
Henry Street and Chatham No. 2 being
somewhat elaborate. The colored schools
also closed up their work in a similar
manner.
Supt. Ashmore expressed himself as
very well satisfied with the work of the
year. “The results have been very satis
factory,” he raid. “The school authori
ties, principal:; and teachers have worked
well together, everything has been har
monious and a good year’s work has been
accomplished. It is true that we were
considerably inconvenienced by the burn
ing of the Chatham Academy, but we ar
ranged to continue the schools thus ren
dered homeless as well as possible in the
hopes that this would be only a temporary
arrangement, but it seems that his must
be continued some time longer.”
As to what he intends doing this sum
mer, Supt. Ashmore said that he will im
mediately begin work classifying the re
ports of the teachers and make the best
possible arrangements for the disposition
of the children next year. “The lack of
accommodations for the two Chatham
grammar schools is a very serious prob
lem.*’ said Mr. Ashmore. “The present
arrangement is inconvenient in many
ways and parents of pupils are becom
ing dissatisfied. The afternoon school
hours are not satisfactory to them and
they are deenrous of a return to the morn
ing hours. Many will doubtless try to get
their children transferred to schools which
are not incommoded in this way, but it
is doubtful if they will be successful.”
Mr. Ashmore will head a party of teach
ers for Charleston on July 11 to attend
the annual convention of the National
Educational Association in that city.
Prof. M. M. Parks left last night for
Chicago via Atlanta, where he will take
charge of a large party of Georgia teach

IS A POPULAR SUBURB.
Isle of Hope's Attractions Drawing
Large Crowds.
The hot weather is greatly increasing
the travel on the street cars and the pop
ular diversion of patronizing the cars at
night to get an airing is very much in
vogue. In order to accommodate this hot
weather travel General Manager Lofton
keeps the day ears running as long as the
travel holds up, instead of reducing the
number of cars at 9 o'clock. Cars are also
run later than usual, and it is frequent
ly half nast twelve before the cars are
off the lines This is always the case, in
fact, where excursion parlies are to be
accommodated.
Isle of Hope is Just now proving the
most attrac iv suburban spot w thin easy
reach of the city. The new schedules
make the little resort easily accessible.
The run from Tenth street is frequently
made in 22 minutes, and is rarely more
than 25. and the small cost makes the
trip an especially attractive one for those
who wish a little relaxation after the
heat of the day.
General Manager Lofton has made so
many improvements at Isle of Hope re
cently that those who have not visited
the place this season would scarcely rec
ognize it. The old dilapidated fences have
been r moved, the weeds and underbrush
which surrounded the tracks at the termi
nus entirely gotten rid of, the trees have
been trimmed and their trunks neatly
whitewashed, a neat s'ation erected in
p'ace of the former dilapidated structure
and many other changes.
By the use of taste and judgment, and
ihe expenditure of some money, the
grounds of Ihe company at Isle of Hope
hove been converted into one of the hand
somest parks to be found anywhere.
Benches and swings have been provided
and oiher conveniences provided for the
comfort and pleasure cf ladies and chil
dren. A nest pavilion lias been erected
in one corner of the park, where ladles
and children moy lake their lunches, and
where they may also order their meals
from the restaurant near by, an electric
cal! bell be'ng provided for the purpose.--.

to make Isle of Hope popular with the

be famous, as It certainly is for Us excel

The darning pavilion is not excelled any

has just about rounded out the needed
equipment. In view of the mhny attrac

the fact that Isle of Hope is becoming
the daily and nightly resort of hundreds

of the most noticeable feature* is the ab
