Only the confirmatory report of Com.
mlaelonera Hlllycr and Hill was gtvon
the detailed report of the inspector hav
ing been sent to the road. Commis
sioners Hlllycr and Hill state In their
lengthy report that owing to the press
ing nature of ecselnna of the comntls
glon,.they were unable to make a per
sonal verification by going over the
road, but after a careful Inspection of
the report they arc satisfied with Its
evidence of care and accuracy, and
"that It may be acted on os It stands."
They again stress the Importance of
close attention to the physical condi
tion of railroads, as one email defect

are reported In bad order, with many
missing plates and rotten ties. They

humanity call for the repair of such
defects.,
The great task boforo the commis
sion in this work of Inspection I* re
ferred to, there being 8,500 miles In
Georgln. They think the roads should
have a track boss and forep of hands
for every eight or nine niUts. They
think the fact that some roads chafe
under these Inspections grows out cf a
misunderstanding of Its purpose. Wis
dom has vindicated the course adopted,
they declare. All roads will bo treated
dike In this matter. No final action le
token without giving all parties the
right to be heard.
They adopt an order calling on tho
Southern to replace all missing bolt*
or'the section reported within ten days,
and within thirty days to replace nil

must report to the commission at the
