Interest on Bonds May
Be Paid in Short
Term Notes.
New York, Aug. 18.—It Is hoped by
the Central of Georgia bondholders
today to reach some definite conclu
sion regarding the status of their secur
ities under the new management of
the road. The conferences which be
gan Wednesday continued yesterday
without dflnite results and adjourned
over until today.
One of the propositions under dis
cussion, It is said, Is for the payment
in scrip or short term notes of the In
terest on the bonds os the earnings
have been falling off and the controll
ing interests are said to take the posi
tion that the company would not be
warranted In paying In cash the full
rate of Interest on the three classes of
the new income bonds, which are en
titled to Interest return only If earnd.
It is also reported that the bond
holders and the management are at
variance on the question whether or
not the earnings of the Ocean Steam
ship Company are applicable to inter
est on the income bonds, the manage
ment taking the negative view of that
question.

New York, Aug. 1*.—The taking of
testimony In the North Carolina rail
road case was resumed this morning
before Special Master W. A. Montgom
ery at the offices of the Southern Rail
way Company, No. 80 Broadway.
The state corporation commission Is
represented nt the hearing by ex-Chlef
Justice James E. Sheppard, of the
North Carolina superior court, ex-State
Senator H. W. Woodward, ex-Judge W.
A. Winston and State Senator Walter
E. Daniel. The attorney general'a In
terests are looked after by E. J. Jus
tice, speaker of the North Carolina
house of representatives, and ex-Gov-
ernor Charlea B. Aycock. Franklin
McNeil and Henry C, Brown, chairman
and secretary, respectively, of the
North Carolina corporation commis
sion. attended the hearing. The rail
road’s lawyers are Alfred P. Thom
and Walter D. Hines.
At the hearing yesterday Mr. Justice
read a statement which made It plain
that the state authorities had no In
tention by nppeartng through counsel
In the present proceedings recognizing
the right of the Federal court to grant
the Injunction. Mr. Thom contended
that the appearance of Mr. Justice and
Mr. Aycock at the Instance of Governor
Glenn made the state a party to the
suit and waa practically a waiver of
the state's right not to be sued..
Barr Callsd to Stand.
Mr. Justice denied that any such
right had been waived. The attorney
general had been sued nnd It waa the
duty of the governor to aee that h* was
represented by counsel.
Vice President H. B. Spencer, of the
Southern, and J. M. Barr, formerly
president of the Seaboard Air Line,
were the only two witnesses examined
yesterday.
Mr. Spencer testified that owing to
nn Increase In the price of material and
wages the operating expenses of rail
roads In the South have been steadily
growing larger. The operating expenaea
of the Southern, he declared, are now
71 per cant of the gross receipts. He
said It cost moro to operate local
freight and passenger traffic In North
Carolina than In almost any other stale
traversed by the Southern. Mr. Barr,
before he waa president of the Sea
board Air Line, served as an officer on
the Chicago, Burlington nnd Quincy, the
Union Pacific, the Chicago, Mllwaukco
and St. Paul, the Norfolk and Western,
the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and
one or two other roads. He corrobo
rated what Vice President Spencer had
said about It costing more to operate
local than through freight trains.' Mr.
Justice wanted to know of Mr. Barr If
It waa the policy of tha Southern rail
way to maintain a monopoly by threat
ening to make reprisals on other rail
roads that contemplated entering Its
territory.
Was No Agreement.
“I don't think ao,” said Mr. Harr.
“Well, did not you say at one time
that the Seaboard Air Line could not
build Into Greensboro, N. C„ for fear
that the Southern would make repti-
eaya7"
“I did.”
"Was there a gentleman's under
standing between the two roads In re
gard to this?”
Mr. Barr objscted to answering that
question, but when the master ruled
that It was relevant, he said there was
none.
Wasn't there an understanding that
If the Seaboard did enter Greensboro
the Southern would make reprisals?"
"Thera waa no expressed understand.
Ing."
"Do you know," said Mr. Justice,
that local business waa handled ao
poorly along the Southern lines In
North Carolina that It drove business
houses out of the state and prevented
others from locating In tha state which
would have supplied goods for the lo
cal demand?"
"No."
Mr. Juatlce pointed out that moat ar
ticles of freight can ba shipped from
points south of North Carolina through
to Lynchburg, Va., for a lower rate than
to Greensboro, N. C„ a considerably
short or distance. Mr. Thom said that
the Southern was compelled to mako
the low rate for Lynchburg to compete
with the Norfolk and Western and the
Baltimore asd Ohio.
The'examination this morning began
with the calling aa a witness of George
E. Evans, fourth division superintend
ent of the Louisville and Nashville ralL
way. The Southern's lawyers regard
ed Evans as an expert on certain lines
of railroading.
