WALLACE VERSUS RAOUL.
FACTS AND FIGURES PRESENT
ED By BOTH SIDES.

Are the Railroads jOr
Wallace Says They Are-President
RaOuI Says They Are Not-A Matter
in Which the Whole State is Interested
More Facts and Further Arguments
Needed from Major wallace.
A few days ago President Raoul, OF the Cen
trail Railroad, appeared before the Railroad
Committee of the Senate and made an argu-
ment in favor of bill to modify the Railroad
Commission law. In the course of his argu-
ment he said:
ain my opinion, if the same percentage OF
depreciation of rates continues for the next
five years as has obtained for the past five
there will not be a solvent railroad company
in Georgia; and, further, with a continuance
of the rates now in effect, if the roads are
called upon to face for three years a depres-
sion in trade and business equal in severity to
the commercial and financial stagnatiOn OF
the several wears succeeding the financial
crisis of 1873. it is a matter of grave doubt if
any Of the roads in the State can earn the in
terest on their fixed charges"
MAI. VILLAGES ARGUMENT.
On last Tuesday Maj. Campbell Wallace, of
the Railroad Commission, appeared before
the Railroad Committee and answered this
statement of President RaOul. He presented
a statement, in which he compared the net
earnings of the roads controlled by the { en-
trail for the five years before the Railroad
Commission was created wi. the net earn
ing for the five years of the commissions rule.
With respect to this comparison Mr.. Wallace
said:
The average net revenue per annum for the
first five years was 81. 057, 234, and that for the
second five years 81, 255,7S7, which is an in
crease in the average net revenue per annum
of over S per cent.
1t will also be observed from the above
that the average per cent3ge of net
earnings on the capital stock OF said company
T,500,000) during the first five years was .1409
per cent, and that during the second period
of five ears the per centage of net earnings
on the capital stock was 1874 per cent.
From these facts we cannot see where the
danger is that the Central Railroad Company
is likely to go into bankruptcy within the
next five years, as stated by the President of
that company. While, on the other hand, if
the same ratio of increase should continue
during the next five years, the percentage of
the net earnings of said company would APP
proXimate twenty (20) per cent. per annum
upon the capital stock of $7,5O0,GO Surely the
President of the Central Railroad and Bank
ing Company deserves that better things
should be said of his management than he
saws for himself. as quoted in the above ex-
tract.
But this is not all that is to be said in COM
mendatiOn Of this valuable property. Its
earning power is wonderful, as will be seen
by the following table of cash earnings made
in the five years under the commissioners
rates and paid to the stockholders:

The Hu,raiian Hofef Transfer.

Arrangements are about completed for the
transfer of the lease Of the Hawaiian hotel, on
the same terms as the government lease. The
transfer is to Messrs. G. W. Maciarlane < Co.,
by DR.. j. ri. McGrew, its present lessee. 1t
has not been generally known, but negotia-
tons for this transfer have been pending for
the past six months. The community will
undoubtedly welcome the announcements n
strictly business management, by firm having
opportunities TO import such goods as are con
sumed in the hotel, instead Of having TO buy
them here in small quantities, insures such
economy in certain directions as makes needed
expenditures possible in other directions. This
is all that seems necessary to make the Ha-
hotels Of the world. 1t is not to be forgotten
that the Honolulu market is a limited one,
which renders it extremely difficult for Homo
lulu caterer to provide such table as may
meet the requirements Of an exacting travelling
public and censorious Irregular boarders -
There are OF course chronic "growler," at
every table. The Hawaiian hotel has had its
share. Much of this growing has been pro-
voked by the lack of market. This lack will
be remedied so soon as time and experiment
make it possible. The high reputation the
hotel has enjoyed under Or. McGrew's man
agement, for admirable cleanliness and perfect
order, will be undoubtedly maintained by the
new management a hrst.class staff will be
empoyed-it being understood that genial
