THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.
The Currency Question Out of the
Way as a Disturbing Factor.

The latest financial review issued
from the great monetary center of the
north, New York, says; most of the
bulls seemed TO be little tanned aid
SO started early to realize on the pas
sage of the repeal bill by the Senate.
Each appeared TO think that if he
waited till the vote was actually taken
the other fellow would get ahead of
him, 80 the selling began promptly
Monday morning, whereas the vote
was expected to be taken on Tuesday.
Rather Unexpectedly it was reached
Monday night and the next morning
there was further and more hurried
selling by those who had not compile
ted their unloading the day before.
Thus it came TO pass that the au-
nouncement of the long expected vote
was greeted in Wall street with a
general decline of prices, and the IA
miliar fact was once more emphasized
that the market always discounts the
occurrence Of an event long expected.
We have done now with the silver
question for this generation. The be-
levers in patent theory of currency
supply which will be back acting, self
compensating and automatic, solving
in the simplest and easiest way you
please, all the difficulties of an always
difficult problem and giving to every
body all the money he wanted, have
been sat upon and squashed. The sill
yer states representative, whose logic
al position was to fight for
anything which promised, or
seemed to promise, to raise the price
of a metal they reduced, have been
made to understand that they no lon
ger have protection for silver, at the
cost of disorganizipg the fiscal system
of the country. All those parties may
unite in solemnly declaring that they
will give the country no peace and the
fight has just begun, but others reason
The citadel of obstruction to repeal
was found in the old bourbon senators
from the south, whose ideas on econo-
mic subjects were of the period ante
dating Adam Smith. The future
does not belong to them. 1t belongs
to the younger men. This includes
the representatives of the new south,
whether in or out of congress.
Having got our currency question
out Of the way as disturbing factor,
speculative opinion is divided as to
the immediate outlook. The more
enthusiastic friends of sound money
aver that the effect of the repeal bill
will be equal to that Of the resump-
tion of specie payments. They say
that European buyers of our securi-
ties will come in with rush, that our
industries viii soon be in full swing
again, that railroad earnings will in
crease as the result of this, and higher
prices for stock must follow of neces-
sity.
This, offence, is the optimistic
prophecy of mono-metallists as seen
through the golden vista of their self
satisfied desires, in recent financial
legislation. But it yet remains for
their utopian dreams, on National
finance, to be realized.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Milton Mobiles and an excellent com
pany appeared list night at the opera
house in revival of his old success,
the Phoenix. This is the play that
made Mobiles famous the American
continent over, and now that it is
dished up again after several years Of
peaceful reposo it shines all the bright
er. 1t gives MOBILES more oppoltuni-
ties, and like the phoenix he aspires to
represent he rises from the not alto
gether satisfactory work that has
attended other plays Of his, and en-
dows his old time fayorite character
with rare personalities and excellent
presentation. / have on several oc-
caslons taken exceptions on Mr..
Mobiles work in other characters and

that in his Phoenix he is pleasing
His work is smooth, his presence not

why Georgia Roads Are Poor.

On Saturday last there appeared in the
MORNING News letter from Mr.. S. G.
McLendon, of Townsville, Ga, n'which
he touched upon the keynote Of the reason
the railroads of this state are passing out
Of the hands of local owners and into the
hands of foreigners and of receivers.
Beginning with quotations from table
compiled by Capt W G. Raoui in 1855,
Mr. McLeueon shows that of the stock of
the Central. the Southwestern, the Geor-
gia and the Atlanta and West Point, at
that time two-thirds was held in Georgia,
nearly one-haf by widows, children and
charitable institutions, and nearly one
fourth by persons owning less than fifty
shares. Thus it is apparent that the rail
roads were the institutions Of the people,
not Of great capitalists. They were the
Investments into which merchants, farm
ers and others put their surplus earnings
and widows ana charitable institutions in
vested their funds in order to secure
steady and sure return.
When the state railroad commits
sion was formed a systematic grinding
down of the earnings was begun. OF the
work of the commission President Raoul
said: Il give it the table showing the
ownership OF Georgia roads that the
public may realize the defenseless condi-
ton of a great number Of people in our
own state. in whose behalf l am appeal
ing, yet only for those principles carried
upon the fair escutcheon of Georgia,
Wisdom, Justice and Moderation and
against whose property Mai. Wallace is
waging a relentless warfare in the COM
mission chamber, in the public prints and
before the legislature. l say Mai Wal
lace, because he has led in all
these oppressive measures, often with
out the knowledge or advice of
his associates, and to such an extent that
a formal resolution, I am told, was passed
by the railroad commission some months
ago, restraining him from promulgating
any more of these oppressive edicts with
out the formal consideration and action of
the board
Mai. Wallace has become committed
to a theory Of low rates. He is endeavor-
ing to sustain his theory Under the
speciOus plea Of protecting the people, he
is seeking the applause of those who are
using the railroads, while he must know
that the price he is paying for that APP
plause is the sacrifice of over s., 600 600 of
property belonging to women and children
of Georgia, who are defenseless against
the spoliatiOn."
Commenting on this Mr. McLendon
very truly says: This was prophecy in
1885; it is history in 1898. Women and
children all over Georgia are to-day cry
ing for the bread which has been taken
from their mouths in the ruin Of this
once splendid inheritance. Let the reader
look about him and see if he can't locate
some such in his own town or city"
By way of illustrating to what extent
the scaling of rates has been carried, the
following table is given:
RATES CI2ARGED BY THE CENTRAL RAILROAD
