8 ATLANTA OFFERED CONCESSIONS, BUT WHAT ABOUT OTHER CITIES IF THE RGDI'CED RATES ARE FOR ATLANTA ALONE The Railroads Are Liltely to Hear from Other Places—The Atlanta AKreeiutm uotri iUH u J auj iitriui* Settle the Rate Rnestlon in Oeor gla—The Railrond Commission to Hear From the Roads as to n lie-adjustment of Interstate Rates. Atlanta, Dec. 10.—The subject upper most in the public mind this week has been that of freight rates. Atlanta's committee of seven held a two days’ conference with the railroad officials, received their offer of concessions on the subject of interstate rates, made its report to Council and saw it adopt ed by that body within the space of four days. All of which means that Atlanta is willing to accept the concessions made, though not half of what the city ask ed, to end the fight and trust to the future for still better results. But what of the consumer? While the Atlanta spirit generally has cre ated the desire to see the city suc cessful in its contention with the rail roads, the general public not engaged in trade, has not appeared to care about the matter one way or anoth er. “What Do I Getf” “What do I get out of it?” was the question put by a professional man to-day. “And when I say I, it is not meant in a selfish spirit, but I refer rather to the great class of consumers who, in the end, always have to pay the freight no matter what it is. “They have reduced first-class freight 9 cents per 100 pounds. That would be a very small fraction of a cent per yard on a piece of calico or a piece of silk, perhaps two or three one-hun dredths of a cent. That may mean a great deal to the dealer who handles hundreds of thousands of yards, but do you suppose my wife would get it any cheaper? Certainly not. “They have reduced crackers 16 cents per 100 pounds. How is the dealer go ing to knock off one-sixth or one-sev enth of a cent, when I buy a pound of crackers? "No matter what article it is you may count on it the price is going to be the same to the consumer. It is the jobber who will benefit and the large retail dealer, but the small deal er and the consumer will continue to Pay the freight as if the rate had nev er been changed. “However, it is all right with me. If they can get any concessions from the ’•ailroads, I am glad to see them do it.” 1* It for Atlanta Alonef There is one question which has not been settled and about which both sides have hesitated to talk. Will the reduced rates granted Atlanta, necessi tate reductions to all other competitive points in the state, or will the reduc tions be made for Atlanta alone? If the latter, it may be counted on that other cities in the state will be heard from. They do not intend to be left out, if there is anything good going to rounds. If the reductions are to apply more generally through the state, the belief is this will ultimately necessitate re ductions to Nashville, Birmingham, Chattanooga and other points nearby, thus bringing the relative rates right back to where they now stand, and Atlanta will have secured no relief whatever, so far as alleged unjust dis criminations are concerned. The first-class rate from Atlanta to Pavannah is 61 cents; from Savannah to Atlanta, 69 cents. These rates are based on the through rate from New York, which on first-class is $1.14. This is to be reduced to $1.05. Will this necessitate a reduction in the pres ent rates between Savannah and At lanta? The general opinion seems to be that it will, though to what extent cannot be told. !Vot Settled by Atlanta Agreement. The agreement between Atlanta and the railroads, however, by no means settles the rate question in Georgia. The State Railroad Commission has been led to expect a readjustment of rates which will be "satisfactory to the commission," to quote the words used by Judge Ed Baxter, counsel for the railroads, when he said he would make every effort to have sucb a re adjustment brought about. A readjustment of rates, to be sat isfactory to the Railroad Commission, must be a readjustment of Inter-state rates, for that is the question over ■which the railroads and the commis eion were fighting when, upon Judge Baxter's promise, circulars 301 and SO 1 * ■were withdrawn and the Injunction suits dismissed. The commission is, therefore, still waiting to hear from the railroads on this point, and unless It is also ac corded satisfaction, to some extent at least, there will probably be a re newal of the litigation. The members of the commission say they are glad to see Atlanta get at leapt part of what she has asked, but that this has nothing: to do with their case. J. M. Culp, one of the Southern's vice presidents, has been quoted as Baying that the reductions in rates of fered by the railroads already will mean an annual loss to his system alone of 1680,000. It is generally be lieved, however, that Mr. Culp was misunderstood by those who quoted him. The Southern Railway is not going to give anybody $680,000 a year, or even the tenth of it.

SEABOARD STOCKHOLDERS WONT AGREE TO NEW LOAN So Declare* John Skelton W 1111am*. Who nUciiMra Company’s Affair*. Baltimore. Md., Dec. 10.—The Balti more Evening News of this evening contains the following interview with John Skelton Williams: “The Seaboard Air Line Railway is responding handsomely to the pros perous business conditions which now prevail in the Southern states. TTle continued development of the South is certain, and nothing but gross mis management can prevent the earnings of the Seaboard Air Line Railway from increasing heavily. The surplus earn ings which the road is showing Just now are at the rate of 100 per cent, more than 4 per cent, dividends of the preferred stock. “The weekly earnings of the com pany, which are showing most satis factory results, are not being publish ed, as was formerly done, for reasons best known to the present officers. The representatives of the New York management have recently circulated a report to the effect that Baltimore stockholders generally in the Seaboard have parted with their holdings. This statement Is, of course, untrue, and misleading. I believe that a large ma jority of the stock is still held outside of the voting trust. “It Is rumored that a scheme is now under consideration to require the Sea board Company to borrow $5,000,000 or $10,000,000 more. I. am not acquainted with the details of the plan, but I will s‘ay most emphatically that the sys tem does not require the money, and if an attempt shoud be made by the New York parties to force the system to jeopardize its position by borrow ing money from them which It does not require, and to scale the stock of the railway company, appropriate measures will be taken by the stock holders. “The company will receive from the trustees $1,500,000 first mortgage bonds per annum for several years to come, which will be available for improve ments and betterments. These funds, together with the surplus net earnings of the company, which President and General Manager Barr stated some months ago should amount to about $1,500,000 the first year after the open ing of the Birmingham line, would furnish the company approximately $3,000,000 a year, whereas Mr. Barr stated over his signature about a year a K° °tte-half of this amount, or $1,500,000 per annum, was ‘as much as the company could advantageously ex pend for improvements and better ments. The Atlanta and Birmingham line was opened for freight business this week and the strain and drain which the construction of this road has in volved on the rest of the system and due largely to gross mismanagement (the Atlanta and Birmingham road having already exceeded its estimated cost by about $2,000,000) ceases, and the Atlanta and Birmingham Air Line should hereafter become a source of large revenue to the company. “To illustrate the fictitious argu ments which have been brought for ward as an excuse for calling for more money for the Seaboard Air Line sys tem it is interesting to recall that several months ago, while the Sea board market was being manipulated for the purpose of depressing values, and untrue statements as to the com pany's finances were also being circu lated, a budget was prepared to show financial wants of the system for the next few years. This statement in cludes one item of about $2,500,000 for regrading and revising portions of the main line. The company’s new bonds at that time were selling on about an 8 per cent, basis, or worse, indicating that this expenditure would involve a cost of about $200,000 a year for In terest, and yet, when the officers of the company were questioned and pinned down as to the benefits which would be derived from this expenditure and the annual saving in expenses which it would bring about, they were forced to admit that the amount to be saved would probably not exceed S4O - 000 per annum; in other words, the amount which the proposed expendi ture would probably cost the company in interest was five times as much as the probable saving which it was ex pected to effect. “I simply mention this to Illustrate the character of the alleged financial requirements for the sake of which it was proposed four months ago to ask the stockholders to consent to the scaling of their stock 40 or 50 per cent. It Is, of course, within the power of outside stockholders by concerted ac tion to absolutely prevent the carry ing out of any such unjust and vicious scheme.” SOMETHING Of’hOBSON FROM PROF. T. H.

Jefferson, the father of Democracy, fought a war in the Mediterranean. Jackson, the idol of Democracy, conducted a war in Florida against Spain on his own pri vate responsibility. The Democrats took the great Northwest from Eng land, bought the Mississippi valley from France, annexed Texas and con quered the Pacific coast. The Repub licans or their progenitors opposed these things. “The Democrats had fifty years of power. That was the old-time De mocracy. The Republicans of to-day have succeeded the old-time Democ racy in policy and in power. If there are any Democrats who read history and who feel bad over this change it will do their hearts good to hear Hob son. He is a Democrat of the old time, Thomas Jefferson and Hickory Jackson type. “The American people love a fight ing leader. The only non-military man the Republicans ever ran for President was beaten. With a fighting leader the Democrats can win any day. Hob son's Independence of character Is shown by the way he entered politics. After the war hts eyes were bad and he wanted to get on the retired list. Bankhead was said to oppose it. Hob son resigned from the navy and came down after Bankhead in hts own dis trict. “He raced Bankhead for Congress, and came within an ace of beating him. He was made a presidential elec tor from Alabama, and Bankhead has trouble ahead for him for the next election. Hobson is the chief worker for the navy amongst Naval Academy graduates In civil life. He has done the navy much more good as a lecturer than he could have done it by re maining a naval officer. Socially Hob son Is an excellent comrade: he Is in for any kind of fun or sport and fond of society. He is easy to meet, a good conversationalist and as light-hearted as a school boy.” Win Shot In the Arm.

WHITE SCORES THEJ*RESIDENT ROOSEVELT TOO LENIENT. HIS TOO READY WILLINGNESS TO PROTECT CRIMINALS. Former Lntted States Ambassador to Germany Criticise* the Presldeat Because He Secured Coramntatlou of Sentence for a Negro Marderer, a Son of of a Preacher, Who Hud Been Condemned to Die. New York, Dec. 10.—“Much as I ad mire President Roosevelt as a true man, we have seen to-day the sorry example of the mistake a strong man can make. The President was appeal ed to by a colored Baptist minister to save the latter’s son from the gallows for the murder of a fanner in Canada,. The President listened to the appeal and has succeeded in securing a com mutation of sentence. I don’t admire the President for that.” This statement was made to-day by Andrew D. White, formerly United States ambassador to Germany, in the course of an address on “Evolution vs. Revolution in Politics,” before the League for Political Education.” Mr. White had declared that high crime is more frequent in this country than anywhere else in the world, save Sicily, and that there is a widespread superstition here that it is the duty of the people to protect criminals. It was in calling attention to what he termed "this mistaken leniency” that the former ambassador referred to President Roosevelt as quoted. "Crime is crime,” said Mr. White, “and it is our duty to make its pros ecution more speedy and less intricate. We should stand together to extermi nate criminals.” Present American business methods, Mr. White declared, are leading to catastrophes and filling lunatic asy lums and poorhouses. He predicted that if better methods are not devel oped Anglo-Saxons will die out and be succeeded by a cruder race of tougher fiber. FERNANDINA NOTES. Fernandina, Fla., Dec. 10.—Mrs. T. M.

Although six months off before the first delegate to the T. P. A. National Convention will arrive in Savannah, those who are in charge of the ar rangements for the reception of the big body of traveling men from all parts of the Union have gone to work earn estly to make it one of the greatest conventions in the history of the order. In a few days a meeting will be held to perfect plans for the raising of the funds for the entertainment of the body. Another meeting will be held to confer with the railroads relative to rates from all parts of the United States. One of the greatest problems with which the Executive Committee will have to contend will be that of accom modations for the delegates. At the lowest estimates, there will be 1,000 delegates, including ladies, here for the convention. These delegates will be here a week. Many Strangers Coming. Added to this the number of visit ors who will come to the city to take advantage of the cheap rates to the watering places, which will be open at that time, it is believed the aver age number of strangers in the city each day during the week will be something like 2,300, for which hotel accommodations will have to be fur nished. Already letters are being received asking about accommodations and a thousand and one minor matters. A descriptive circular answering all pos sible inquiries will be gotten out by the Executive Committee and mailed to every inquirer. In addition to these circulars con taining information directly about the convention a copy of the handsome booklet gotten out by the city will be mailed to every inquirer. Atlanta Butts In Again.
