INVLSTlGATISC THE c. & q. RAIL
ROAD

Yesterday Senator Mcdonald, r Repub-
lican member from the seth Senatorial
District, consisting Of the counties Of
King George, Richmond, Westmoreland
Northumberland, and Lancaster, offered
In the Senate a joint resolution TO the et-
feet that the State owned about 1921
shares of stock in the c. and o. Railroad
Company for which she paid 800 per
share; that the stock of this road was
now worth only about 50 so a shave, and
in consequence the State was out Of
pocket about S1,7ls,l00 He therefore
wanted an investigation as 10 the reasons
why the stock had fallen so low, and n
his speech 10 the resolution intimated
that gross frauds had been perpetrated
on the State; that the present manage.
ment Of the road are responsible therefor,
and they should all'go to the penitentiary.
This, of course, brought General Wick
ham TO his feet, and he promptly replied
that If the n northumberland Senator dared
to insnuate that he had, in the remotest
manner, been guilty OF any fraud what
sOeyer he would take good care of the
insinuatOr. lie afterwards said that the
Senator from the Northern Neck, being
q Northern man and II comparative
stranger to Virginia, was ignorant of the
difficulties with which this road had to
contend, and was, therefore, perhaps ex-
cusable for his lack of knowledge on the
subject.
The point that is most noticeable from
this action Of Mr Mcdonald Is this
He is the acknowledged friend and coad-
tutor of Malone and there is reason.
able ground for the suspicion that this
resolution of his was introduced in the
political interests OF Malone and against
