COMBINE IS DENIED
Roads Answer Complaint and
Assert Innocence.
KENTUCKY MADE THE KICK
Jurisdiction Denied to the Commis
sion—Answers of the Southern
and the Louisville and Nash
ville/are Interesting.
Several more of the railroads which
were made defendants in the com
plaint made by the Kentucky railroad
commission, charging merger of inter
est which threatened to place the en
tire southern territory under the domi
nation c ' a single firm, filed their an
swers with the Interstate commerce
commission at Washington Tuesday.
The answers in the main, like those
of the Illinois Central and the Texas
and Pacific, filed Monday, deny the al
legations. The Louisville and Nash
ville railroad, however, goes further,
and in its answer styles the complaint
a “mere fishing bill,” and disputes the
jurisdiction of the interstate commerce
commission over such matters. The
Louisville and Nashville’s answer
says the commission has no right nor
title to institute or prosecute the com-
has no jurisdiction to require
the filing of copies of contracts or ar
rangements with other common car
riers, except such as relate to the traf
fic affected by the interstate commerce
act, which, the railroad says, does not
apply to the contracts, arrangements,
etc., referred to in the complaint; nor
jurisdiction to inquire into personal
transactions of individual stockhold
ers, nor to asce. ,ain whether any par
ticular individual or firm has acquired
a majority, or any other proportion of
the capital stock of a railroad.
The answer denies that J. P. Mor
gan & Cos. have acquired control of a
majority of the Louisville and Nash
ville stock, and says the commission
has no jurisdiction to inquire into the
motives or objects of anyone selling
er purchasing shares, nor whether the
stock of the Southern is controlled by
a voting trust, with Morgan t Cos. at
its head. • ~ * ' ' *
The Atlantic Coast Line railroad ad
mits contracting with the Morgan
company to. purchase by December 3T,'
next, and that the Morgan company
has contracted to deliver to the Atlan
tic Coast Line by that date 306,000
shares of the capital stock of the
Louisville and Nashville lor $50,000,-
000, and that the Louisville and Nash
ville has assented thereto.
The Southern Railway Company, the
Southern Railway Company in Ken
tucky, and the Southern Railway Com
pany of Indiana, in a joint answer,
deny that the two last named lines
are under the “management” of the
Southern. They admit that about June
21, 1900, Morgan & Cos. and the South
ern ralway made an agreement with
practically all of the holders of bonds
secured on properties then belonging
to the Louisville, Evansville and the
St. Louis Consolidated Railroad Com
pany, whereby it was proposed to re
organize that road, to vest its control
In the Southern. This plan was exe
cuted by a foreclosure sale. It is also
admitted that in pursuance of an
agreement the Southern jointly with
the Louisville and Nashville, has ac
quired 85,983 shares of the capital
stock of the Chicago, Indianapolis and
Louisville Railway Company.
The Cincinnati, New Orleans and
Texas Pacific not only denies the ju
risdiction of the commission, but sub
mits that there is no law of the United
States, or of the states mentioned in
the complaint, “which forbids the
same person or firm to hold stock in
two or more railways.”
' The answer of the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company is a general denial
of “all and all manner of unlawful
combination and confederacy where
with it is charged.”
Train Wrecker Sentenced.
At Columbia, S. C., Tuesday Alt’
Cohen was sentenced to fifteen years

DADE COUNTY SENTINEL.
ROOSEVELT AND iLEVtLANi)
Speak from Same Platfcrm at Dedica
tion cf New York Chamber
of Commerce.
With a president and a former
president of the United States as its
guest of honor and witn representa
tives of foreign governments and oth
er distinguished guests in attendance,
the New York chamber of commerce
formally dedicated its buildings Tues
day. The new building, a handsome
structure of white marble, is situated
in Liberty street, between Nassau
street and Broadway.
The proceedings were opened with a
prayer of dedication by the Rev. Mor
gan Dix, rector of Trinity church. An
address of welcome by Morris K. Jes
sup, president of the chamber, follow
ed and then the oration of the day wa3
delivered by former President Grover
Cleveland.
When Mr. Cleveland rose to speak
he was greeted with loud cheers from
the assemblage and several times in
his speech he was interrupted by ap
plause. He touched only on commer
cial lines. At the conclusion of his
address, Mr. Jessup announced that
President Roosevelt, although reserv
ing his address for the banquet in the
evening, had consented to say a few
words. As President Roosevelt step
ped forward to address the chamber,
the whole assemblage arose and cheer
ed. He spoke as follows:
“Mr. President and Gentlemen: As
I am* to speak tb you this evening, I
shall simply shy a woijd.ot greeting to
you and your guests. *2Wiave been
asked here as the chief of
the nation and so I can
merely on your behalf, but on berr
of our people as a whole, in greeting
and thanking for their presence here
the representatives of foreign coun
tries who have done us the honor and
pleasure of being present today. (Ap
plause.) •
“I greet the ambassador
Mr. Cambon) whose approaching de
parture we sincerely regret, the am
bassador to whom on his advent we ex
tended so hearty a greeting, especially
those great friendly civilized nations
with whom we intend to be knit even
closer by the ties of commercial and
social good will in the future. (Turn
ing to the Russian and British..ambas
sadors and Prince Henry von Pless.)
“And g>-Attemen, having greet
ed youV guests on behalf of you, greet
you in the name of the people, not
merely because you stand for commer
cial success, but because this body has
been able to show that the greatest
commercial success can square with
the immutable and eternal laws of ae
cent and right living and fair dealings
between man and man.”
The demonstration as the president
concluded ended with three cheers.
MOLINEUX GOES FREE.
Jury Declares Him Not Guilty of
Murder of Mrs. Adams.
At New York Tuesday, Roland B.
Molineux was set at liberty, after
spending nearly four years in prison
and being once condemned to death
and twice placed on trial for his life
for the murder of Mrs. Katherine J.
Adams.
But thirteen minutes sufficed for the
jury to reach a verdict of acquittal at
the close of a trial that had lasted four
weeks, the first trial which resulted in
Molineux’s conviction and sentence
having been prolonged for about three
mbnths.
The verdict, which was confidently
anticipated, was greeted with an in
stantly suppressed outbreak. lof ap
plause, Justice Lambert having deliv
ered a stern admonition that no de
monstration would be permitted.
Molineux, who was brought into
court as soon as it was known that
the jury had agreed, was apparently as
unconcerned as he has been through
out the trial, and gave no evidence oi
emotion when the words that estab
lished his innocence were pronounced
His aged father, General Molineux
was deeply affected, and could with
difficulty respond to the greetings ot
friends who pressed forward to offer
their congratulations.

TRENTON. GA. FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 14.1902.
LIMIT TO TAX RATE
Urged by New Chief Executive of
Georgia.
GOV. TERRE! LS FIRST MESSAGE
Document is Brief and Strictly to th
Point—Subjects of Vital Inter
est to Georgians Given
Attention.
Governor Terrell’s first message to
the Georgia legislature was read in the
house and senate last Saturday and
printed copies of it were distributed
for the use of the members.
The message is brief, but strong
and calls attention to a number of
subjects on which the people express
ed themselves in the last election,
principless for which Governor Ter
rell stands and which he emphasized
during his campaign throughout the
state.
Governor Terrell urges a constitu
tional limitation of the tax rate, bills
for which are now pending in both
houses. He suggests legislation look
ing to the taxation of franchises of
public utility corporations, a matter
which the legislature will also gir c
consideration at this session. Im
portant suggestions are offered look
ing to the. prompt payment of the
school teachers of the state, and these
suggestions have been embodied in a
bill by Mr. Howell, of Meriwether,
which is now before the house.
Important legislation looking to lo
cal taxation for the purpose of bnild-
Ajg, .school houses is recommended,

In js fran

line ojjfr gubernatorial |fiinond:t
tions Terro?3?‘!*iM*r:n part:
“Ulosly allied to a limitation on the
rate of taxation is the duty of provid
ing a method by which all property
shall be made to bear its fair share of
the public burden. With a few ex
ceptions, the constitution provides that
all property shall be taxed* In the
main, this provision is carried into ef
fect —though no system has ever been
devised which is perfect in its applica
tion, and in spite of the most careful
ly drafted tax acts, there are unavoid
able omissions and a want of that per
fect equality and uniformity toward
which the lawmaking power constant
ly aims. But there is a class of fran
chises held by certain quasi public
corporations which, though valuable in
themselves and adding value to the
capital stock, have m the par-t. es
caped taxation because of a want of a
provision in the statutes requiring
these franchises to bo returned or as
sessed. Being property these fran
franchises are as subject to taxation
as any other property under the con
stitution, and in view of the fact that
they generally represent privilege?
which are more or less exclusive and
which have been given to the corpora
tions without money and .without
price, there is a peculiar justice in
subjecting them to the tax laws.”

only four opposing votes.
The house adjourned at 11:30

A Very Clerer Sw indie.
For some years a little w r agon has
come into Paris daily from one of the
suburbs and in accordance with the
regulations it has been examined at
regular intervals by custom house of
ficers.
Their task, however was easy, for
they never found in it anything but
fruit and vegetables, which are free of
duty, and so they naturally regarded
the driver as an honest countryman,
who was taking to market the produce
from his little farm.
The other day through a mere acci
dent they found out their mistake. A
brewer’s wagon came in collision with
the little cart, and, as the heavy shaft
shattered one of the sides, a stream of
rich oil gushed out on the sidewalk. As
there is a heavy duty on oil the custom
house officers arrested the innocent
looking countryman and discovered, to
their amazement, that there was a
false bottom in the cart, and that con
cealed from view was a tank capable
of holding several quarts of oil.
Subsequent investigation showed that
oil had been brought for a long time
in this surreptitious manner to a dealer
in Paris, and the authorities are now
carefully examining every little wagon
that enters the city, in order to find out
whether it also lias a double bottom or
not.
Deceitful Appearances.
Once again the fact that appearances
are ofttlines deceitful has been proved
true. The interest of a number of
those iu the audience at a local theatre
one evening ivas evenly divided be
tween tlie action on the stage and the
conduct of a couple seated in the sec
ond row of orchestra chairs. During
the intermissions between acts, as well
as a goodly portion of the time, while
(lie curtain was up, the t/wo folks re
ferreij to gave evidence of being more
concerned about themselves than in
(lie play. Each gazed lovingly into the
eyes of the other as a whispered con
versation was carried on to the extent
that the people sitting near-by felt
warranted in making mental compari
sons Avith turtle doves.
All the romance was ruthlessly
dashed from the situation, however,
when those in the row of seats directly
in the rear of the couple chanced to
overhear a portion of what w r as under
discussion. The man was describing
to his fair companion, in a most mat
ter-of-fact manner and with much ear
uestness the mussed condition in which
one of his shirts had that day reached

federal officers and the colonel

Jl*seMl*h in Rome the Virginia oar-
got a military order for
and transportation to Vir-
Via for trial. A deputy marshal and
BHbther fellow came secretly to Rome,
Clt the colonel had already been ad
*'ied of their coming and so one dark
ilv\it about 10 o’clock he came to my
h&lpe and told me his peril and said
hiXj-ouid go to his brother’s place in
thi*'county and hide out until the pur
suit blowed over. So I hitched my
horse to our rockaway and we left
in haste. I knew the road to Kingston
and he knew the rest of the way. it
was about 3 o’clock w r hen we reached
the place and saw the gin house out
in the field. There we stopped and lie
took refuge in it and told me to tie my
horse out in the bushes and then go
down and rouse up his brother. This
is the old man who asked us to come
and dine with him. When I knocked
at the door he came in his night
clothes and said, “Who is that and
what do you want?” I whispered my
business and told him to talk low, for
we didn’t want the family or the ne
groes to know anything. He put on
his clothes and went to his brother,
and I got in my conveyance and n ade
for Rome, where I arrived about sun
rise. The colonel kept hid in the gin
house under the cotton for nearly a
month and then dared to return, for
the officers had departed. I never see
this fir,--' 1 Virginia gentleman but
what I think of that ride and the nar
row escape his brother made. Ve** ,lv
reconstruction was worse than war.
But it is all over now, thank the good
Lord, and we can hold our reunions
and carry our battle-torn banners and
build our monuments and lay the cor
ner stone for Winnie Davis and lynch
the brutes that assault our wives and
daughters, and as Governor Oates said
to our detainers in congress. “What
are you going to do about it?” And as
for lynching, I repeat what I have
said before, “Let the good work go
on. Lynch ’em! Hang ’em! Shoot ’em!
Burn ’em!” Israel Putnam went into
a cave with a torch to shoot the wolf
that had devoured the lambs of his
flock anil just so would I lynch the
brutes who outrage our women. He is
not a human. He is a brute, a beast
and these demonstrations by govern
ors and judges and sheriffs are hypo
critical and perfunctory. In their
breasts they rejoice in the lynching.
And there is another set of hypo
crites who infest our southern land.
I mean those who for the sake of filthy
lucre and nothing else invite Roosevelt
to visit their city and they promise
him an ovation. He comes nearer Be
ing a figure head of a president than
any we have ever had. He m a con
firmed slanderer of a great and good
man. and he knows he slandered him
and will not retract or apologize. Our
women have just laid a corner stone
for a monument to his lamented daugh
ter and our veterans and members of
the legislature approved it by their
presence, and yet some of the same
creatures would invite Roosevelt to Sa
vannah and Macon and Augusta. 1
wouldn't invite any man to my town
whom I wouldn’t invite to my house,
and no man who fought for the lost
cause or respects Mr. Davis would do
that. There is more patriotism today
among our women than among om
men. A friend wrote me from Atlanta
that he was going to have 5,000 copies
of General Jackson's great speech on
the “Wanderer” printed in pamphlet
form for distribution at a small cost
among our people. I have promised
to help him advertise it, but I had
no idea that he could sell or hardly
give away a thousand copies, for our
old men and cultured men and pa
triots are nearly all dead and this
generation does not care whether Gen
eral Jackson made a speech or not.
I asked a college man if h; had ever
read it and he seemed surprised and
asked who was General Jackson. Our
people who have grown up since the
war have fallen into northern lines and
are for money. Money is their ambi
tion, their idol. Morgan and Rockefel
ler have done more to corrupt the
young men of this country than \&11
other causes combined. Those who
are smart are looking for some short
cut to fortune—some scheme, some
tricky way to shear the lambs* and
get somebody’s money for nothing.
This is sad, but jt is the truth.
Well, the election is over and wo
are just where we were. We didn’t
expect anything else. Senator Mor
gan can take comfort, for he said long
ago that it was best to let the republi
cans have the house as long as they
had the senate. Give them rope, all
the rope, and let the country see
where they will run to, and by the
