THE P0wHATAN STEAMBOAT COMPANY AND
THEIR BERTH IN THE DoCK-THE COMPANY
PROPOSES TO PAY THE CITY ONE THOUSAND
DOLLARS FOR THE PRIVILEGE OF STAYING
WHERE THEY ARE.-The report OF the
Committee on Streets as to whether suf-
ficient accommodation may be afforded to
the Powhatan Steamboat Company else
where on the margin OF the dock than their
present berth, presented to the Common
Council OH Monday night, grew out OF the
petition of Mr.. John Enders praying for
relief from damage to his warehouse by
reason Of the proximity OF the connecting
track along Dock street.
The city of Richmond owns the quay next
adjoining the sheds at present occupied by
the Powhatan Steamboat Company, but the
company do not wish to go to another place
because their present location is more con-
yenient to them, better suited to the trade,
and, besides, they can better watch their
opponents where they now are. For these
and many other reasons they did not wish
either to go to another berth inside OF the
dock or to go outside, where they are liable
to Inconvenience by freshets, etc. The
committee say in their report that the COM
pany acknowledges the fact they arc occupy
ing their present buildings without rightful
uutuoi w W .iiS S.sS
the payment OF $1,000 per annum for the
privilege of remaining there. Ii the Board
Of Aldermen concur in the Common Coun-
Gil resolution they will remain where they
arc and pay the $1,000 per annum to the
city.
Mr.. L. b. Tatum, agent Of the company, in
letter to the committee, states that they are
not inconvenience or an obstruction to any
business interest OF the city, but, on the
contrary, by bringing their steamers and
freights to the point now occupied by them
in the dock, they have added materially to
the convenience and economy OF every ship
per to and from the city.
Mr.. Tatum also states that ii they are re-
moved from their present berth they VIII be
ssforced at once to leave the dock altogether;
in which event the city would lose $1,000
per annllm, the Canal Company $4,000 per
annum, and our entire business community
subjected to the greatest possible lnconVe-
nicnce."
In connection with the letter OF Mr..
Tatum petition signed by cighty-seTen
prominent merchants and shippers OF the
city was presented requesting the Councli
to permit the steamboat company to remain
where they now are.
On the other hand, it is stated that the
company will not leave the dock under any
circumstances, even il they have to pay
three or four times the amount they pro-
pose; but the whole matter will doubtless
be disposed Of at the meeting OF the Board
on Monday next.

i THE ATLANTIC, MISSISSIPPI, AND OHIo
RAILROAD GAsE--THE APPOINTMENT OF RE-
ICErvER INSISTED Upon. The following cir
.cuiar has been Issued: t-Iif ~
AGENCY OF CONSOLIDATED B0YDHoLpERs,
OF THE A., NJ. E o. r. r. Co.,
% NASSAU ST., New YORK, May s, 1876.
To The Bondholders Of The Norfolk and Pc
terSburq, Southside, and Tir1iuin and
Tennessee Railroad Companies
Gentlemen,-As you arc probably aware,
Company has made default in the payment
OF interest upon its consolidated bonds.
In consequence OF the default and the
failure on the part of the company to carry
out the terms OF an agreement entered into
recently by the company through its presi-
dent, while In London, to fund the overdue
and d portion OF the future interest, the
holders of the consolidated bonds have
ceased to continue their confidence in the
present management Of the company.
The consolidated bondholders have, there
fore, through their trustees, made applica-
ton, in the Circuit Court of the United
States, for the appointment OF receiver to
administer the affairs Of the company.
In taking the step it is the wish Of the
consolidated bondholders to give to you the
strongest assurance that their policy is en-
tirely opposed to any disintegration of the
consolidated road; and that they intend to
respect all equitable rights, other than their
own, in the property. aa
The consolidated bondholders feel that
with this declaration they may confidently
rely upon your support in the proceedings
which they have been compelled to take to
secure their interests, which have been sacri-
feed, as we'll as yours which are seriously
imperilled, under the present unsatisfactory
administration of the property.
lam, gentlemen, your obedient servant,
JOHN COLLlNSoN,
Attorney in fact and representative OF the
consolidated bondholders of the Atlantic:
