No allowance is made for the loss Of pro-
pcrty and business by the destruction OF the
Staunton- River bridge, which caused inter-
ruptions to the traffic for a month.
It will thus be seen that, even without
any general improvement the business OF
the company from returning prosperity, or
from the advantageous connection recently
made with the Charlotte, Columbia and Au-
gusta railroad, the earnings Of this company
are sufficient to pay all its obligations. The
interest on all it's debt, including that due
the State, has been paid. The present or
ganization is believed to be most efficient
and economical, and the committee are en-
couraged to believe that the current year
will show decided Improvement in busl-
ness and net revenue.
The committee heartily approve the sug-
gestion of the payment OF the debt due to
the State, and recommend the passage OF
the following resolutions:
Resolved, That the recommendation OF
the president and directors in their report
of this date, in relation to an adjustment
OF the annuity to the State of Virginia, be
and the same is hereby approved; and the
president and directors are hereby author
lied, in their discretion, to make applica-
ton to the Legislature for such legislation
us uldl UC uCClutu uSSS6Sai ioh ebt'o PeA
pose, and, if obtained, 10 provide for carry
ing the same into effect at such time and
manner as in their judgment shall be for
the best interests OF the company.
3 ReSotued, That in view OF the appre-
citation of the currency, the corresponding
depreciaton of all other values, and in
view Of the further fact that the income OF
the company has not kept pace with ordl-
nary and extraordinary expenses OF ope-
rating the road, the committee would re-
spectfully and urgently recommend to the
management the necessity OF reducing the
operating expenses to the basis of specie
RESUMPTION, so far as the same may be done
without cessation Of the policy OF gradual
but steady improvement OF the property or
lessenng the efficiency Of the same.
The committee not having any informa-
ton on the matters referred to in the report
of the Examining Committee beyond what
is stated therein, recommend its reference
to the Board. Respectfully,
FRED. K. SCOTT, Chairman.
Colonel Buford said that the policy indi-
Gated in the second resolution was now be-
| ing pursued by the management. He en-
dorsed the resolution.
The whole report was adopted.
