calculations for time not yet expired, it
only remains to be said that there was eX-
pended in that period: For necessary
maintenance, S124,000; for redemp-
ton OF divisional Indebtedness, S1,450;
for payment for floating debt in
the way Of labor and supplies,
S299, 000-making a total of S4244, ,450-a
sum much greater than the amount which
is claimed to have been misappropriated,
the correctness Of the appropriation OF
which to the objects specified cannot be
doubted.
These facts, except as to such as are en-
braced in the operations of the current fiscal
year, are to be found in the company's pub
lished reports, and ought. to have been seen
by any one conyersant enough with such
affairs to act the part OF critical expert.
The company's answer to the bill OF COM
plant and its supplemental answer, together
with the ffidavits Of General Mahone, fully
and successfully disproye each and every
allegation in this connection. They show by
incontroyertible figures correct statement
OF receipts and expenditures, Whlch no
special pleading or combination OF peculiar
items to produce desired result can over
throw or impugn-igures to the correct
ness Of which Mr.. CoIlinson himself has
testified.
I. ABILITY TO Run THE ROAD
|, AS to the company's ability to run the
road, it can do so If permitted by the court.
The company will have on hand on July lst
in cash and available balances about $780,
900, which it can apply to the payment OF
divisional interest, and can easily pay the
whole amount either by the proceeds OF
loans at maturity or in part-say two
thirds-then, aand the remainder from
its earnings within thirty days thereafter,
The company would anticipate no trouble
at the hands OF its floating debt creditors or
divisional bondhoIders. The former class
have not only exhibited most generous

Judge RObertson's Reply.
Judge Robertson, OF counsel for the rail.
road company, in responding to Mr. McFar.
land reviewed the history OF consolidation
showed how General Malone found the
roads after the war, and in what condition
they were when the panic came on. He de-
scribed the contract made with the English
capitalists, aud stated that Collinson took
the bonds at 6S cents in the dollar, and that
for several years the bondholders were paid
interest at the rate of seven per cent. per
annum; therefore they had not suffered as
much as had been represented. He denied
that the condition Of the company was such
as to demand the interference OF the Court,
and claimed that II it were so the Court
could better protect the interests OF all con-
cerned by allowing the company's officers
to remain in charge subject to the Courts
orders than to appoi@ a receiyer-for In
stance, a vendor Of railroad supplies, VINO
would know what supplies the road wanted,
and has to charge therefor. Judge Robertson
claimed that Mr.. Collinson had been the
cause of all this trouble, and that even now
if the British bondholders were represented
here by an unpreiudiced person salts
factory arrangement outside OF the court
could be made.
He claimed that the State OF Virginia
ought to be party to these proceedings,
unless, as intimated by Mr.. Mcfarland, II
was intended to allow q. combination OF
bondholders to leave her out IN the cold en-

the fact that in the original bill the trustees

that had been omitted, and it was now IN:
