“OVER CAPITALIZED
A4FY SAM D. JONES
Declares A. B. & A. Railroad Cost About
$12,000,000 and Issues Stock for
$54,000,000.
In the course of his speech at the
Hoke Smith rally at the Bijou Theater
Monday night, Sam D. Jones, president
of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce,
referred to the Atlanta, Birmingham
and Atlantic railway 'and made the
charge of over-capitalization of nearly
400 per cent. He said:
“My distinguished fellow townsman,
whom I like and admire personally, has
gone to work and has bought up many
little railroads In Georgia and has
welded them Into a system. These
roans cost him between $3,000,000 and
$4,000,000. Then he has built the lino
from Atlanta to Birmingham. This and
other improvements, linking the roads
together, has cost him about $8,000,00.
Hit sytein has cost - about $12,000,000.
“Now. he goe9 to Boston and when
he returns the rnllroad is being capi
talized nt $54,000,000.
“The people of Georgia will have to
pay In freight rates a fair rate of in
terest on that total capitalization,
which Is Just about five times what it
really should be.
“That’s where the rub comes In deal
ing with freight rates.”
The Mattingly bond bill, which has
been brought before legislature after
legislature for many years, was defeat
ed ngnln Tuesday morning In the low
er house. The debate on the measure
was long and Impassioned and the
house seemed almost equally divided.
The proposition to pay the debt COB-
traded by Governor Brown In 1861 was the North had^ forced the J3outh to^re-^
finally defeated by a close vote. '
doubt that the arms were purchased
for the purpose of rebellion and that
the payment of this money was pro
hibited by the constitution.
Mr. Anderson, of Chatham, appealed
to the house not to cast a reflection
upon the names of Toombs and Hill
and Brown, who had after the war
urged the payment of the bonds.
Mri Felder, of Bibb, argued eloquent
ly against the payment, urging that

_ Mr. Hall. of-Bibb,

If ‘woublg not be the best method of cor
recting the present
The discussion of this bill occupied
utmost the entire time of the session.
Several small local bills were consid
ered Just before the closing hour. The
house adjourned to meet again at 3:30
Speaker Slaton called the house to
order at 9 o’clock.
«. Mattingly Bond Bill.
The Mattingly bond bill was taken
up as the first order of business.
This bill provides for the redemption
of bonds issued for a debt contracted
by former Governor Brown for rifles
purchased at the beginning of the war
between the states and used by Georgia
troops. The sum involved is $24,200.
The bonds are now held by the estate
of Georgo Mattingly, of Washington,
D. C.
The house was resolved Into a com
mittee of the whole, with Mr. Steed, of
Carroll, In the chair. The majority re
port favored the payment of the bonds
and was signed by Chairman Wright,
of Richmond, and Representatives A. J.
McMullln, F. M. Longley, J. T. Hill,
A. A. Lawrence, Joseph H. Hall and
L. W. Branch. Minority reports were
submitted .by Mr. Perry, of Hall, and
Mr. Covington, of Colquitt.
Mr. Wright, of Richmond, spoko In
favor of the bill.
Mr. Knight, of Berrien, argued
against it.
Mr. Hall, of Bibb, argued for the
bill.
Mr. Perry, of Hall, opposed the bill.
Mr. Persons, of Talbot, favored the
measure,
Mr. Covington, of Colquitt, argued
that the debt existed, but held that
the law was plain that no debt in
curred In aid of rebellion should be
paid, and this would prevent the legal
payment of these bonds by the state.
■ The comfhlttee of the whole reported
quorum.
A bill providing for a number-of spe
cial appropriations to pay deficiencies
In the regular appropriation* for 1906
and 1907 was taken up. The commit
tee of the whole returned the bill to
the speaker and asked leave to set
again. .
A bill was Introduced by Mesrs.

which' now demanded money for guns

her brothers In the North.
Hall Favor* Payment.
Joe Hill Hall, of Bibb, favored the
payment of tlie debt. He read a letter
written by Toombs to the agent of tho
Sharps Company stating that the debt
should be paid.
During the roll coll nearly every
member took advantage of the oppor
tunity to explain his vote In a thre-
mlnute address, which In some cases
became an Impassioned argument.
Mr. Whitley, of Douglas, opposed the
approplrntlon and dwelt upon the lob
byists who had worked In Its Interest.
Mr. Wright rose to a point of per
sonal privilege and Mr. Whitley ex
plained that he meant no reflection on
any member of the house and referred
only to outsiders under tho term of
lobbyist. ’ .
The bill was adopted by a vote of
88 to 66.
An Afternoon Session.

afternoon session bo held at 3:30
o’clock.

now afoot arc carried out. ther will he
four Inter-urban electric lines, aside
from those now entering this city, car
rying passengers and freight to Georgia
cities and to cites In the Carolinas
from this point.
The Atlanta, Macon nnd Griffin line
will be granted its franchise at tho
next seslHon of council; the Atlanta
and Carolina railway has applied for
Its chnrtor nnd Intends traversing tho
route betw een Conyers, West Point and
Franklin.
On good authority It was learned
Tuesday there were two other lines
also in contemplation. One of these
extend from Atlanta to Augusta
III later bo carried on to Charleston,
a. C. The other will traverse the dls
lance from this city to Columbus, Ga,
The companies are at present In the
embryo. However, tho authority from
which the facts were gathered stated
that within the next fortnight or so ap
plications would be made for charters
and that before the/winter montl
In It was expected that work
commence on the grading.
Railroad engineers have mad
connolssance of all these lines and the
actual work of running a preliminary
survey Is being carried on by several
of the companies.
An Excallftnt Thing.
City Attorney James L. M?/fiOh
stated Tuesday that the lines would be
nn excellent thing for the city as well
a* for the outlying country.
■•These lines will do much to solve
tho freight rate question,” said Attor
ney Mayson. “Although I’m not author
ity on this subject from my observa
tion there are many Industries In Geor
gia being greatly Injured annually by
car famines nnd by the high rates ex
isting where there Is no competition.
Attorney Mayson also spoke of the
passenger traffic and the general con-
venltnco to the people who live around
Atlanta as well as those in other nhd
smaller cities. . .
Another phase of the benefits to be
reaped from the electric lines are the
taxe* and tariffs which will generally
upbuild the municipalities, counties and
vould
state. Aside from the regular taxes,
each township will douhlle** levy It*
own tax on the gross receipts of the
company coming ffom the specific hab
itation. The express and freight car
ried and the amounts realized by the
company from the samo will nlso bring
In money to swell tho tills of the local
governments.
In tho case of tho line between At
lanta and Macon, which will operate In
this city under the name of the Geor
gia Security Company, a tax »>f 2 per
cent <»f tlie gross receipts from local
sources for the first five years qnd 5
per cent for the remaining 25 year* of
tho contract has been named ns the
proper amount to charge.
The companies will also be made to
keep the streets, or a portion thereof,
on which they run In a state of repair.
Stringent Law*.
The -comfort of passengers nnd the
general appearance of the rolling Btock
will he governed not only by tho com
panies, but also by the cities through
which the lines pass. As Is the cose
with the Atlanta-Macon line, then.- laws
will be exceedingly stringent.
The portion of the Georgia Security
Company's charter touching upon this
reads as follows:
