BIG ARMY SCANDAL MAY
DEVELOP AT WEST POINT
q Highland Fails, N. Y„ June 8.—What
k may develop into one of the biggest
J scandals that ever marked the history
of the army Is expected to grow out of
a suit for tho recovery of 3100,600 al
leged damages from prominent officers
S at the West Point Academy, which the
attorney for Mr*. Charles G. Ayers,
wife of Lieutenant Colonel Ayers, has
been Instructed to file in the civil
courts.
Mrs. Ayers resides Just outside of tho
academy reservation in Highland Fall*,
and under a recent order Issued upon
request of the academy officials, Mrs.
Ayers Is denied the privilege of visiting
the academy grounds. The order of
prohibition, which is said to have a
large place In Mrs. Ayers’ complaint In
supjlort of her suit for damages, does
not apply to her husband or to her son,
who Is a cadet at the academy.
The order of prohibition against Mrs.
Ayers, which was Issued before her
husband had returned from the tour of
duty In the Philippines, followed a long
period of misunderstanding between
Mrs. Ayers and the academy officials.

Other Instances of these competitive
lines with differing rates exist, and of
course the cheaper rate is bound to
prevail on both roads. The Georgia
and the Atlanta and West Point are
rather happily situated in this respect,
as competitive lines do not apply with
such force to them. It may be seen,
however, that the ultimate effect will
be to make practically a rate all over
the state of near 2 cents.

General satisfaction with the rate

very good authority that the new rat
Ing meets with the approval of Gov,
ernor-elect Hoke Smith. Georgia
the first state to work out this scheme
of classifying roads according to earn'
lng powers, and placing the rate at fig,
ores based on that fact.
The commission purposely deferred
making the order effective for ninety
days In order to give the general as
sembly time to take such action as It
might desire. The commission did not
want to be placed in the attitude of Ir
revocably Axing the rate before the
lawmakers had an opportunity to ex
press themselves.
Complete silence exists on the part of
the railroads as to any possible action
by them In the future. Many believe
that most of them will acquiesce in the
ruling. Some may fight back. That
remains to be developed.
Commissioner Brown’s Dissent.
As stated Friday, Commissioner Jo
eeph M. Brown dissented from the ma
Jorlty report In the A and B classes,
which placed the Atlanta and West
Point and the Western and Atlantic
in the 2-cent class and the Coast Line,
Charleston and Western Carolina and
the Georgia in the 2 1-4-cent class. The
length of the opinion precludes its pub.
IlcatIon In full. It says in part:
"1 can not concur in the flat rate of
2 cents per mile proposed for the West,
ern and Atlantic railroad by the ma.
jorlty of this commission. I do not be
lieve the courts will sustain it. I do
not believe It to be just. And this opin
ion as to the general result, applies to
the rates proposed for all the railroads
you have placed In classes A and B.
‘What I have striven for. In the In
tense application I have given to the
study of this case ever since the Far
mers' Union filed It, has been to deter
mine, first, if a reduction In the pas-
renger rates in Georgia could legally
be made; secondly, how great a reduc.
tlon, If any; thirdly, how the masses of
the people could receive the greatest
benefit nnd, co-ordinately, the carriers
be the least hurt—If hurt at all. In
working out this prdblem I became con
firmed In my Judgment that the sons
system was the key. I have explained
It too fully In my motion to require
further words here.
People Not Benefited.
"I have stated In that motion that
the masses of the people received no
benefit from the enormous reductions
In the freight rates, made in 1905. I
will assert with the utmost emphasis
that I have proved the truth of the
statement In question by quoting the
highest authority which can speak.
"And I assert with equal emphasis
that if the freight rates in Georgia be
reduced $2,000,000 more, the farmers
end other laboring people will not get
$500 out of the total sum. It will sim
ply bo another dividend for the menu
fecturers and some of the Jobbers.”
Commissioner Brown insists that
equal Justice as between the people and
railroad should balance the decision of
the commission, and that no other fac
tor should enter Into 1L He refutes the
statement that the "sone system" Is
too complicated, and that it Is merely
applying to the passenger traffic the
tame basis that Is used In making
freight rates. He calls attention to the
fact that when the "sone system" was
In effect on the Western and Atlantic
In 1888, i$89 and 1890 that no one ever
complained of Its complication.
In Classes C..D and E and the ape
rial groups he Is entirely In accord with
the other commissioners.

Returns of Corporations
Should Show Gain of
$50,000,000.
If other corporations in Georgia are
moved by the same spirit that actu
ated the Georgia Railway and Electric
Company in more than doubling its
original return of property for taxa
tion, a net Increase of $40,000,000 tb
$60,000,000 will result.
Comptroller Wright is determined to
bring corporations, whatever ita class,
up to Just figures In so far as lies
within his power. The only machinery
given him in doing this Is the arbi
tration board. When a corporation's
rstums are not satisfactory and no sat.
lafactory adjustment can be reached
between the comptroller and the party
at Interest, the law provides for an
arbitration board. One of this board
is named by the comptroller and must
be a member of the railroad commis
sion. The corporation names a man,
and if thsst two can not agree, they
name a third party.
When this board ' renders Its de
ctslon, the comptroller can not go
of it, even If ne does not think It a
just valuation. Comptroller Wright is
now working out the assessments for
the various corporations coming under
He
-lvlng at his estimates by
capitalisation of other like com
ponies with those agreed upon. This
method will be applied to each class of
corporations. It is quite certain that
the big trunk line railroads will have
to Increase their first returns very ma
terially.
Under this .rule, the Atlantic Coast
Line would be Increased from $12,000,-
000 to about $21,000,000. The Central
from $18,600,000 to $27,000,000. Apply
ing this tyitom to oil the big lines,
It may be seen how soon the figures
will run far into the millions.
In the Seaboard Air Line returns,
made some time ago, the capital stock,
warnings, expenses and other necessary
data were omitted. The comptroller
wrote for the Information, but has
never heard anything. He will not
wait much longer, but place a valua
tion on the property that will likely
bring communication from the officials
in a hurry.

Long Fight in Courts Ends
in Victory for Stove
Makers.
A victory tor the state railroad com
mission was won Friday afternoon
when attorneys for the Southern rail
road withdrew the writ of error ob
tained from Chief Justice Fish on the
decision in the stove rate case, and the
order of the railroad commission re
garding these rates will go into effect
about June 20.
By abandoning this light to the high
est court In the country, the railroad
conceded a victory to the commission,
and when the decision of the supreme
court was made the Judgment of the
superior court Saturday momlnr the
beginning of the end of the litigation
was in sight. All that now remains to
be done Is an order from Judge New
man dismissing the case now In the
Federal court, which resulted In a
temporary restraining order against
the railroad commission pending tho
decision In the state court cases.
The case which has become to be
known as the "stove rate case” had
Its Inception In May and June of 1906,
when the railroad commission Issued
circulars 306 and 306, reducing the
rate* on stoves between certain points
In the state. The Palmer Hardware
Company, of Savannah, secured an In.
Junction from Judge Cann, In the
Chatham superior court, restraining
the commission from putting the cir
culars Into effect, on the ground that
the rate was a discrimination In favor
of Atlanta and against Savannah.
Attorney General Hart and Attorney
A. Wlmblsh, for tho commission,
demurred to the petition and claimed
the Chatham superior court had no
jurisdiction, os the commission could
not be sued in Chatham county. Judge
Cann overruled the demurrer and the
case was carried to the supreme court
which reversed Judge Cann and dis
missed the case.
Then the order which caused the
liroada to fight was Issued in July,
1905. This was circular 309, which
oxtended the reduced rates to 37 points
in the stats Instead of those mentioned
In the first orders. These 27 points
were known a* competitive points,
where two or more railroads are sup
posed to have competition.
Finally the order went into effect,
but when the Atlanta Stove Work*
tendered shipments to the various
railroads, the roads refused to accept
them. Then the Atlanta Stove Work*
petitioned Judge Pendleton, in the Ful.
:on superior court, seeking tp man
damus the roade to obey the order of
the commission and take shipments at
the rates prescribed. In June, 1900,
Judge Pendleton decided In favor of
the stove works and ordered the rail
roads to accept the shipments. The
railroads carried the cae* to the su
preme court, the one case of the South
ern road being agreed upon as the test
case. The supreme court upheld Judge
Pendleton In a decision rendered
few days ago. . . .
When Judge Pendleton was asked by
the stove work* to mandamus the rail,
roads, the railroads’ attorneys sought
to remove tho cases to the Federal
court, but they were remanded by
Judge Newman to the state court.
Falling In this, the attorney* secured
from Judge Newman a temporary re
straining order, preventing the com
mission from enforcing the rate* and
hearing was suspended until Judge
Pendleton made his decision and the
supreme court had acted upon It.
On last Monday a writ of error was
taken out to appeal the cases from the
Georgia supreme court to the United
States supreme court. Pending this
hearing the Southern was compelled
to give a 110,000 bond to Indemnify the
Atlanta Stove Works In case the de
cision was upheld.
In Superior Court.
Attorney Wlmblsh. repreeentlng tho
Atlanta Stove Worko, appeared In su-
perlor Court Saturday morning, and
upon hi* application. Judge Pendleton
signed an order making the judgment
of the supreme court, In granting a
mandamus absolute In the case of the
Atlanta Stove Works against the
Southern railway, the Judgment of tho
superior court In the same case.
WOMAII III GEORGIA?
Mobs In Georgia have sought the
lives of both whits and black prison,
ere, but Attorney John R. Cooper, of
Macon, is authority for the statement
that for the first time in the history of
Georgia, a white woman’s life has been
in danger from mob violence.
He declares that officials at Eastman
have Informed him why Mrs. SaJlle
Freeney, recently convicted of the mur
der of a prominent man in that town,
was removed after the killing to Macon.
It was reported at the time that Mrs.
Freeney would have bettor accommoda
tions In Macon than In Eastman, but
Attorney Cooper says that officials say
that Mr*. Freeney was taken to Macon
because of the fear that a mob would
attempt to do her harm.
“Mrs. Freeney didn't have a constitu
tional trial In Eastman,” aald Attorney
Cooper, "and I am going to fight this
case to the bitter end. I will carry her
case to Washington If necessary."

resolution protesting against the
appointment of a receiver for the Fire
men’s Real Estate and Investment
Company and expressing confidence in
the secretary and treasurer, Chiptey R.
Setze, was adopted by the majority
stockholders of the company Thursday.
The auditor employed to investigate
the books of the company, It wil be re

314,119.88. Attorney James L. Key,
representing some of the stockholders,
petitioned that the company he put In
the hands of a temporary receiver, and
Thomas H. Goodwin was appointed by
Judge Pendleton.
The case was to have been heard
Saturday, June 8, but was postponed,

Following Is the resolution adopted
by the majority stockholders:
The Resolution.
’Resolved, That It la the sense and
desire of the stockholders of this mast
Ing that no receiver be appointed by
the court and that the court bo asked
to reruse such appointment. In our
judgment, a receiver would be the most
disastrous thing that could happen. The
corporation is not a going concern; it
Is now in liquidation and la being wound
up as fast as practicable by a commit
tee of three appointed for that pur-
ose and, ae tho corporation owes no
ebts, and Its assets consist of small
notes due by sundry parties, many of
whom can not be forced to pay, but
who will pay In small amounts if giv
en time, but who will not pay a re
ceiver. it would entail a great loes by
failure to collect, and expenses of a
receivership which we desire to avoid.
The whole stock consists of 486 4-5
shares, and the plaintiffs In the suit
only represent 70 shares, about 15 per
cent of the whole.
“Be it further resolved, that we do
not believe .that our secretary and
treasurer, Mr. C. R. Setse, has been
guilty of any wrong-doing and will be
able to make a full explanation of all
hts actings and doings.”
It will be remembered that the Invee.
tlgatlon was brought about, not by th*
' y stockholders, but by hok‘
Inority of tho stock. Tho ma
jority of tho atock is now. it Is stated,
owned by two stockholders, Mscon
