Sort 1. Afoot in Connection With
the Property—Uu.inesa to Date
Promise* Well for Next Annual
Keport—All Road* of the Southern
Group in Good Condition.
One of the most marked improve
ments in railroad issues of any kind
within the last few months has been
that of the Central of Georgia in
comes, securities that have long been
favorites with local investors
and which in the last year
have more than justified the
faith that had been placed in
them by an increase of market value
that has been unprecedented by sim
ilar issues of any Southern road and
which has probably been rarely
equalled by those of any road in re
cent years.
How great an improvement has
been made can best be shown by a
comparison of the market quotations
for the first, second and third in
comes a year ago and those at which
these securities are now quoted, as
follows:
Dec. 26,1903. Dec. 26,1904.
BABA
First incomes ..70 72 92 93
Second Incomes 31 32 72 73
Third incomes .20% 21% 62% 63%
A part of this increase can be fair
ly attributed to the excellent showing
that the road has made in recent
years, especially for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1904, when for the
first time in the history of this issue
of securities a dividend was paid on
second incomes, but this hardly ex
plains the greatly increased value
that has since taken place, and. In
fact persons best acquainted with the
course and fluctuations of these is
sues are inclined to look for something
back of the movement that has sent
them to their present standing.
Deal May Materialize.
This is shown by a letter from a firm
of well-known dealers in securities in
New York, which is quoted, in part, as
follows:
“There is again considerable activity
in Central of Georgia issues, but noth
ing definite comes out to account for
the movement. Of course, the scarci
ty of good bonds and the demand for
invectments of that kind, count for
something in this connection, though
we must say that it is hard to reject
the suggestion that some deal in re
gard to the property may, after all,
materialise.
“An incident which has had a good
effect on sentiment in connection with
Southern properties generally, was the
increase of the Louisville and Nash
ville dividend, putting that stock on a
C per cent, basis. It strikes us that
when the market becomes more ac
tive Southern Hallway common and
preferred will be likely to exhibit ma
terial advances.!!
Whether it be true or not that a
combination of some sort is on the
tapis, the fact remains that the road,
from the present outlook, will make
another excellent report for the pres
ent year, for the movement of cotton
over the line has been almost unprece
dented, and the outlook is that that of
fertilizer will be unusually heavy,
while the generally prosperous condi
tion of the country has caused a large
movement of miscellaneous freight, as
well. It Is stated, too, iby persons In
timately connected with the manage
ment that the property is being in no
wise neglected, and that as a result
the physical condition of the road has
never been better.
Southern Group's Showing.
In a great measure what can be said
of the Central’s outlook for a pros
perous year is applicable to the other
roads of the Southern group, the South
ern Railway, the Atlantic Coast Line,
the Louisville & Nashville, and the Sea
board Air Line, all enjoying the same
class of trade and, therefore, each
sharing in the present prosperity as is
shown by the following tables of their
earnings for the season up to and in
cluding the first week of the present
month:
Atlantic Coast Line—Gross earnings,
from July 1, 56,575,431; previous year,
$6,065,420; increase, $510,011.

$4,200,765; increase, $505,720.
Louisville & Nashville—Gross earn

year, $16,412,804; increase, $509,676.

BIG DEMAND FROM WEST
BROUGHT ABOUT BY THE ACTIVITY
OF CAR BUILDING PLANTS.
Till* Ha* Cut Oft from Coastwise
Shipment Through Savannah a
Large l’art of the Stall' That Form
erly Went That Way—Projected
Large Building Operation* Fol
lowing Presidential Election lias
Helped Demand and Stiffened
Tone Even at Higher Prices.
The yellow pine lumber business
after a very disasterous slump in val
ues that lasted without interruption
from the early spring of the present
year, until some few weeks ago is now
again in a very satisfactory condition
as regards both demand and the price
basis, and the coming year holds out
only the brightest prospects for a con
tinuance of this condition.
The improvement made itself felt
first in the increased demand from the
interior and the West and came in
a large part from the car builders
whose plants having accepted con
tracts for thousands of cars hurried
on the market within a very short
space of time found themselves under
the necessity of buying a very large
amount of lumber and getting it quick
ly if their contracts were to be filled
on time. That the demand for this
class of supplies was urgent is shown
by the fact that many of the presi
dents of these car building plants
themselves visited the yellow pine belt
in this state, and this vicinity in or
der to place their wants before the
dealers and mill men and urge hurry
work in delivery.
Demand and Prices Better.
This naturally cut off from coastwise
shipment a large quantity of lumber
that had previously gone to the East
ern cities through this port and the
lessening of the supply, together with
the Increased building operations that
have been projected since the presi
dential election, has increased the de
mand for ail kinds of lumber and at
the same time hardened the tone of
the market even at the higher price
level that has recently been reached.
The volume of business coastwise
has as yet shown no very material in
crease, though large orders have been
accepted by local lumber men and
heavy shipments will go forward in the
near future. Already two such ship
ments have been arranged for, one of
some 625,000 feet of yellow pine will
be taken by the David to New Bedford,
Mass., within the next few days. It
will be shipped by the Granger-Stubbs
Lumber Cos. and will be used in build
ing cotton mill plants. Another order
of almost the same size will be ship
ped also on the David to New Bruns
wick. This will be shipped by Mr. J.
A. Calhoun.
Boon to Mill Men.
The demand for car material comes
as a boon to sawmill men, as they can
use in gettihg out this stuff timber
that otherwise would be valueless or
practically so, and in using this class
of timber they in no wise interfere
with the cut of dimension sizes.
The better tone to lumber has reach
ed all branches of the trade for even
cross-ties, which for many months have
been very dull, have recently not only
shown a firmer tone under the increase
of demand, but are daily expected to
advance in price from that at present
paid, 40 to 42 cents, to 45 cents and
it is a question whether even at this
advance the supply will equal the de
mand. The fact is that owners of tim
ber are unwilling to manufacture ties
at this basis when the timber that
must be used for that purpose is of
probably twice the value when cut into
dimension sized lumber.
