Macon, Os.. June 6.—In hie annual
address before the Georgia Bankers'
Association today President John H.
Reynolds, of Rome, said In |>art:
"Mr. Carnegie le quoted as saying
that he owes hts successes to the fact
that he had amarter men thnn him

"Much legislation has been attempt
ed by congress, which. If It had been
successful, would have been of great
benefit to us. First waa the proposed
new currency bill. This bill, to our
shame, wee killed In the house of Its
friends. It was put to an untimely
death by Democrat!—national Demo
crats. Southern Democrats, Georgia
Democrats.
"The main reason for blocking cur
rency legislation was that national
banks would find the Issuing of cur
rency profitable. Well, how does any
one expect currency Issues without
some one finding a profit In It? The
very fact that there la more sufficient
profit In bond currency is the reason
that there Is nol more of It today. It

In Georgia Is 36,120.000.

why? Because there Is not sufficient

which will be before the bouse at Its
next session.
'There ought to be a law that will
make the railroads responsible for the
there le collusion between a shipper
nnd a railroad agent, and the b,anker
gets a bill of lading for foods that have
never been received by the railroad,
the latter Is not bound and the banker
loses. Let us have a law that will
make the railroad aa much bound for
the nets of their agents as banks art
bound for the acts of their cashiers.
"A very serious problem before the
thinking men of this country Is the
conflict that le nrielng between the
■late and the nation In'the control of
railroads and Insurance companies.
Here Is a railroad within the state of
Georgia that Is obliged to conform to a
state commission as to how It shall run
the road, as to what rates It shall be,
and then because It carries traffic Into
another state It must defer to the Fed
eral commission aa to what shall be
the condition of Its very existence,
etc.'
'I feel that It la to be much regret
ted that the farmers of our state for
getting the vast benefits done them by
the Houthern Cotton Association have
formed a dose corporation driving the
business men from their councils. I
claim that we are as much Interested In
the fnrnter getting 13 cents per pound
for his cotton as he le. We have
great deal more cotton than he has
that la, thers is a very large amount
owing us at all times that depends upon
cotton. The more the farmer fete for
his produefa the qulcksr he pays, and
the more he has to deposit In our banka.
Under the Influence of the Southern
Cotton Association the farmers and
bankers arc coming to a clearer and
better understanding of each other—
•one for all nnd all for one,' bat now
they have shaken us and gone off to
themselves again. iAt us hope that
they will not have an unhappy expe
rience to bring a change of heart, but
that they will soon let reason bays full
sway and open their portals to their
well-wls'hlng and much-interested
neighbors.

ROADS MUST GIVE
THROUGH. RATES
| Washington, Juna 5.—Tho Interstate
1 commerce commission. In an opinion
today rendered by Comnflaeloner
Franklin K. Lane, announce! a con
struction of the Hepburn act, which
holds that practically all of the rail
roads In the United Stales are united
as parts of through routes over which
through rateg exist, even where no
Joint rate has been established.
The decision deals with the move
ment of 10,900,000 pounds of sugar held
In storage at Omaha, which was
brought Into that city before the exist
ing tariff out of Omaha and to the East
went Into effect. The question raised
wa* whether or not the' Chicago, Bur
lington and Quincy Railway Company
might allow sugar stored In Omaha to
go forward under a tariff put Into effect
after such sugar was stored.
The Ruling,
He says:
"There can be but one through rate
In effect between any two points at a
given time, and this rate may b* a
Just rate or combination rate, applica
ble on through business. Where no
Just through rate le In effect, a com
bination through rate over a through
road may be made up of any rates ap
plicable on through transportation—the
sum of the locale, or a proportional
rate In and a local rate out, or two or
more proportionals, or any other law.
fully established rates which may be
Joined together to make a rate over
the through route; but such combina
tion through rate must be regarded as
a unit from the date of original ship
ment to date of arrival at destination,
and the rate applied must be ths com
bination of rntes which exists upon the
date of original shipments.
Tariffs Not Retroactive,
"Tariffs can not be given a retroac
tive effect; they can not be made to
apply to conditions other than those
existing upon the date when such tar
iffs become effective. A combination
through rate Is as binding, definite and
absolute as a Just through rate; and
all of the conditions, regulations snd
provisions obtaining as to any factor
In such combination rate for through
shipment at the time of Initial ship
ment upon such combination through
rate mutt be adhered to and can not be
varied as to that shipment during the
period of transportation of such ship
ments to Its final destination.
“A local or proportional rate 'In' can
not be absorbed, diminished or affected
by any 'out' rate not In effect at the
time when the traffic moved upon such
local or proportional rate.”
v further question decided In the
same ease Is that as to tbs rats that
should govern over s through route
when a through rate charged Is made
up of the sum of the locals. Commis
sioner Lane holds that the rate that
should be applied le a combination
through rate made up of the sum of
the locals or other lawfully established
rates spjpllcable on through business at
the Ume wbef the shipment originates.
