MORE FRAUDS UNEARTHED.
The Financial Schemes Of 1869 to
1872 Still Coming to Light.

In 1869 the Legislature, ostensibly in orde
10 secure the construction of a railroad t.
lexas, agreed by act 26, approved February
lfh, to guar ntee the second mortgage bonds
OF the New Orleans, Mobile and Texas Rail
road Company to the extent of Sl2, 500 pc.
mile, as it should complete sections of forty
miles each, provided the first section should
be completed by January Is, 1871, and the
"ho4e road TO the Sabine by January Is, 1873,
and III the case of failure that the obl;n,tion
OF the state should cease and determine
The guarantee was to be signed by the Gov
ernor only whena certificate of completion of
the road COR sections thereof should be certi-
tied to by the engineer of the company and
of the State.
Mr.. Bayley, the engineer, testified in case
3G9 of the Superior District Court, that, at
the end of January, 1871 only fourteen and
one-Iuarter miles had been completed, and
gave his certificate only in April, 1871. The
obligation of the State had then lapsed
But yesterday some of these second mort
gage bonds were shown Us, which were issued
by the company July |, 1870, with the broad
seal OF the State attached, as Of date Decem-
Der, 1870, more than three months before any
certificate was furnished
BY the terms of the act the railroad com
pany could only issue these bonds after they
had been guaranteed by the Governor. and
he could only sign the guarantee after the Ger
tlticate Of completion, and then these bonds
could only be used by the company for the
construction Of the road west Of the lTissis
sippl River. and yet the holders of the bonds
shown US received them for -Pontchartrain
Railroad stock, which property is now claimed
by the holders Of the road from New Orleans
to Mobile.
Here IS another wrong, nc. only On the
public, but on innocent widows and orphans, |
who were induced to part with valuable prop
erty for worthless and fraudulent bonds. |
Whenever this community have reached the
lowest depth of iniquity, still lower deep
opens to devour them.
