AT A LATE DATE.

Some Disappointment at the Time Set
for the southwestern Meeting.
The meeting Of the stockholders OF the
Southwestern railroad to hear the report OF
the special committee which went on to
New York for the purpose of Investigating
the reorganization plan has been called for
April 10 In Macon.
This is rather a late date, as the time
fixed by the reorganization committee for
all the securities to be in is April l. and,
although number Of Southwestern securi-
ties have been transferred, tine majority of
them have been awaiting the report of this
committee and the result of the stookhold-
ers' meeting. This has been the case also
with holders of other Central securities,
who have been awaiting the result of the
action in the case of the Southwestern.
Whether or not the committee sent to
New York made any arrangements with
the reorganization committee in regard TO
an extension of the time for receiving the
securities is not known, but it is a fact thas
the date as fixed by the committee for the
meeting of the stockholders has been dis
appointment to many Of them, as the special
committee has had the matter under con-
sideration for some time, and it Is known
that they are now ready to make their re-
port. The securities of the Southwestern
have already suffered considerably by the
various delays with which the settlement of
the matter has met, and it Is said that any
further delay can only add to the evil
The stockholders were anxious that this
matter be settled at an early date as posi-
bic, as it can readily be seen that any delay
will only have tendency to delay the re-
organization of the Central system.

PASTTHE MILLION NOTCH
HIGH WATER MARI IN sAvAN-
NAH's NAVAL STORES TRADE.

! The ROsin and Turpentine Receipts
for the Season So Far 1874 937
Packsges-The Greatest Receipts at
Any Port in the World in Naval
Stores-Ihe Record for the Last Ten
Years.
| The receipts of rosin at Savannah passed
the 100000 barrel mark yesterday, the
highest notch reached by any port in the
world.
The board Of trade celebrated the event by
flying its flags. Besides the board Of trade
flag and the national colors there was a
large white flag displayed under the United
States flag. upon which was painted the
picture Of a barrel and on the barrel the
figures 1,OOO 900, which mark an epoch in
the history of the naval stores trade.
The total receipts Of rosin and spirits has
reached the stupendous figures 1,274, 937
packages. These figures have never before
been recorded at any port IN the United
States in the matter Of receipts Of naval
stores and it is hardly probable that they
will ever be reached again for several years
to come, if at all.
LARGE PRODUCTION NOT PROFITABLE.
1t has been found by producers that such
an enormous production is Of no practical
benefit to the trade and has very demon
alizing effect on values. The naval stores
trade has experienced the same effect as the
cotton trade from the results of overpro-
duction, and low prices through the year
have left producers very
small return for their efforts.
The figures, however, show what rapid
and enormous strides Savannah is making
in trade progress and places her easily in
the front rank as the greatest naval stores
port in the world, and there is hardly
doubt that she will easily hold the position
for many years to come. At the present
time she has no rival in this branch OF
trade, and with her superb facilities she
fears none.
