QreSS the StOckhoidcrS' meeting, sald, IN
substance, that he would advise the gentle
men present not to have the impression go
out that the form OF agreement concluded
on to-day would certainly result in the pur-
chase of the canal property and franchises
by the Richmond and Allegheny Railroad
Company. He had, therefore, advised the
committee of the stockholders OF the canal
company that that purchase would depend,
first, on the question whether the Ricl-
mond and Allegheny Railroad Company
would agree to put up the guaranty OF
100000 in United States bonds as pro-
posed; and, second, whether the creditors
OF the canal company would consent to take
for their securities and demands such price
as the Richmond and Allegheny Company
would consent to pay. He thought the half
million OF guaranty would not be an irsu-
perable barrier. II the proposed purchase
should fail, it would be, he thought,
from the creditors seeking for their
securities sum beyond what they
have until now been regarded as
worth. That value has been shown By sales
of the first and second mortgage bonds in
the open stock market. I hope the credit
ors will regard these sales as indicating the
real value OF their securities, and will not
impelil and perhaps defeat this important
DuUIlC ny iaA SShJ Oh
the supposed anxiety Of capitalists to Sc
cure the canal property, which can only be
made valuable by large expenditures IN
building and equipping long line Of rail-
way. 1t Is true the canal property is great
speculation il railway be built upon it.
But it is also true that capitalists in these
times require four or five dollars in availa-
BILE value to induce them to make an invest
ment, especially in Il railway enterprise.
In conclusion, General Ewing returned
his thanks for the cordial reception he had
received, and for the frank and cour-
teous spirit in which the objections he had
urged to many of the propositions offered
had been obviated. ae regarded the pro-
position as now offered as wise and advan-
tageous, requiring no further guarantees
than is demanded by a Just consideration
of the public and private interests involved
in the proposed transformation OF this his
toric but belated highway of commerce into
far more beneficient public work.
On motion of Mr.. W. n. Johnston.
Messrs. John j. Allen, W. FL. Haxall, and
