The Csntrars Majority Stockholders.
The figures presented In the Macon dis
patch Of the MORNING News yesterday
relative to the financial condition Of the
Central Railroad and Banking Company
are not encouraging. They show that the
company is In financial difficulties Of
grave character. The history OF how the
company was led into those difficulties will
eventually be told and the responsibility
will be placed where it belongs.
In the meantime it is a matter OF some i'm
portance TO know who really own the ma
jonty Of the Csntrals stock. The Terminal
company controls 10 because il owns the
IL, 900 shares Of the Georgia company, but
its interest in 1t is only the amount the
stock can be made to pay above per cent.

they belongs The owners of them may be-
come the owners OF a majority of Central
stock. As there is no immediate prospect Of
a dividend on Central stock there is likely
to be default in the interest on them. In
that case the stock would be sold and be
bought in by those bondholders or pass into
the hands of other parties. The Georgia
company would go out OF existence. The
stock might pass into the hands of those who
would consider it to their interest TO make
the stock valuable by helping the Central

w. Il. Laidlaw, the brokers' clerk, whom
it is alleged Russell Sage used as shield
between himself and the dynamiter, Nor
cross, some time ago, has sued Mr.. Sage for
damages, appraising his injuries at $780,
900. MIR. Laidlaw says that when he went
into Mr.. Ssge's office on the morning Of the
tragedy, Mr. Sage grasped his hand warmly
and put him between the man, who AFTER
ward turned out to be the dynamiter, and
the person of the famous millionaire, and
when the msdman threw the dynamite,
Laidlaw received the force Of the explosion
that otherwise would have struck Mr.. Sage.
Laidlaw did not know there was danger i'm
pending when he entered Mr.. Sage's office;
Mr.. Sage did. Even if Mr.. Laidlaws story
is true, Mr.. Sage's actions were but
natural. Self-preservation being the
first law or nature, Mr.. Sage
grabbed the first thing he could get
his hands upon to interpose between his
own person and the anticipated explosion.
Laidlaw was the most handy, so he was i'm
provised into service as a shield. Mr.. Sage
has not said, in the language Of q check
drawn in Laidlaw's favor, how much he
values the favor involuntarily rendered, so
Mr.. Laidlaw has asked the court to give him
100000.

The South Caroline Campaign.

dispatch from Columbia, s. c., pub
lished in the MORNING NEWS yesterday,
gave the information that "a state conven-
tion of the 'straightout' democracy" had
convened In that city and nominated a full
state ticket. That convention was the re-
suit OF q call signed by Gen. Wade Hamp-
ton, ex-governor of the state and ex~U nited
States senator, and twelve other prominent
citizens opposed to the political methods
and administration Of Gov. B. R Tillman.
The meeting was the beginning Of what
will be warm campaign against Tfilmaa's 3
reelection. The call for the meeting was
understood to limit the work to be done TO
the suggestion" of candidates to the regu-
lar state convention Of the Democratic
party. In that manner it was proposed to
keep the fight 'within the party" organiza-
tion, as the "Tillmanites" claim to have
done in the last state campaign.
But when the convention assembled, il
seems, the leaders of the movement con-
sidered that the convention itself was su~
perior to the call, and competent to do
what, TO it. seemed best, unrestricted by
the language OF the call. In this view the
made. to go before the people.
In this act, it appears to us, the estimable
gentlemen composing the convention erred.
The delegates were all men Of true aud tried
democratic principles. Wade Hampton,
Edward McCready. John Peter Richardson,
Evan Norton, Samuel Dibble, James L.
Orr, n. G. Gonzales and A. b. Williams
have repeatedly demonstrated their devo-
tion to those principles. aud each delegate
to the meeting was probably as good a
democrat as either of those mentioned. But
they evidently let their zeal in the task of
beating Tillman get the upper-hand of their
better Judgment. They are now without
| the pale of the regular democratic organiza-
ton.
They have nominated candidates for state
offices without the sanction of the regularly
organized and acknowledged democratic
executive COMMITTEES. The call for con-
vention was signed by citizens, not executive
committeeman; the delegates were not
elected by county meetings called by the
democratio authorities; the convention was
not called to order by the state chairman
| and organized in the orthodox manner, and
the proceedings can bind nobody except
those who took part in them.
1t is very unfortunate that the convention
did not stick to the purpose an
nounced in the call. 1t may be
desirable to defeat Gov. Tillman's ambition
to succeed himself, but it is questionable If
it is desirable to accomplish that by ignoring
the democratic organization existing in the
state. That such an organization is in ex-
istence and has been exercising its func-
tions for a year and more cannot
be denied. The chairman of that organiza-
ton is United States Senator Irby, Gov.
Tillman's personal aud political friend, who
will use all of the influence Of his position to
return him to the guberuatorial chair. And
in the fight, as it stands now, Gov. Till
mans partisans will have the prestige OF
being the regularly organized democracy.

Ths Silver Bill.

There is pretty strong probability that
the Bland bill will not be passed by the
House at this session OF congress. It is now
on the calendar. aud will have to wait until
It is reached in regular order unless the
committee 90 rules again makes it a special
order ami assigns a time for considering it.
The opinion is expressed that the committee
will do this, though whether it will or not
depends probably upon whether the free
silver coinage members believe the number
OF votes necessary 20 pass it can be secured.
1t is evident that there is a steadily grow
ing sentiment against the Bland bill. There
are democrats who. although they favor the
free coinage Of silver, think the passage OF
the bill would prevent the success Of the
Democ -atic party Ia the approaching presi-
Dental campaign, and they will vote against
it, and there are others who favored free
silver coinage before the discussion OF the
bill began, but who now very much doubt
that any benefits would flow from its pas
sage: AS matter OF fact the
bill does not insure the free
coinage of silver, but authorizes an
almost unlimited issue Of notes based upon
silver. II provides that any owner Of silver
may deposit it at the mints and receive
81 % in notes for every ounce Of it The
effect Of the bill, If passed, would be, of
course. 70 make all notes OF the United
States silver notes, because it gives the
government the option of paying all notes
In silver. In fact, the government would
soon have nothing but silver with which to
pay any Of its obligations
Both the free silver coinage and the anti
free silver coinage members Of the House
were greatly surprised at the vote to lay
the Bland bill on the table. 1t was expected
that the motion would be defeated by fair
sized majority. It came very near being
adopted. aud would have been had not the
speaker cast his vote against it. The
speakers action made the vote a tie. and,
hence, defeated the motion. II the speaker
had not exercised his prerogative the silver
question would have been settled for this
session and. perhaps. for this congress.

A Commissioners Complaint.

The interstate commerce commission has
become quite a large institution. and
it does vast amount of business, but it
doesn't appear TO amount to a great deal.
1t has costly offices in Washington and en-
ploys a secretary, . auditor. statistician and
more than 100 CLERKS. The commissioners
travel about the country and listen to COM
plants against the railroads, and they hear
complaints at their offices In Washington.
The impression appears to be growing,
however, that the commission costs more
than it is worth for the reason that 1t has
no power to enforce its decisions.
In Atlanta the other day Col. William r.
Morrison, the chairman. in an interview
said: 1--WE hear complaints against rail-
roads and decide the questions involved in
them, but IL the roads do not like the decis-
ions they do not obey them, and we have to
60 into the federal courts to enforce them.
Then the cases como up de noUo, and II the
courts think the decision wrong they do not
give the commission the means Of enforcing
them, We are In the courts continually to
enforce our decisions, and very often the
courts fail to help u.s."
II bHe IoiH Oaus uo hob OOey the oeclslonS
Of the commission they object to unless
forced to do SO by the courts it would seem
as if those who have grievances against
railroads might as well appeal to the courts
in the beginning. They only lose time in
making complaints TO the commission. 1t
is true that some of the decisions of the
commission are obeyed, but these decisions
could be obtained from the courts probably
without much trouble.
TO make the commission what It was
originally intended to be it is necessary to
clothe it with additional powers, and it
would not be surprising il either that should
be done or that the commission should be
abolished. 1t is evident that as it is tho
commission does not accomplish great
deal.
