RAILROADS COME no TERMS.
The Southern and c. II. and ID. Settle
Their Differences.

New York. May S.-The Southern Rail-
way and the Cincinnati, Hamilton and
Dayton interests have settled all difficult
ties as to the Cincinnati extension bonds
and the properties underlying them on d
basis entirely satisfactory TO both parties.
The Southern Railway has to-day taken
control of the Alabama Great Southern
Railway Company by the election of Sam
uel Spencer, Charles II. Coster. J. p.
Morgan, Jr., Francis Lynde Stetson, W.
y. Oakman, A. ]. Thomas and George W.
Maslin as majority of the board of di-
rectors, with Samuel Spencer as chair
man.
Under the terms of TIE settlement the
Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton interests
lStire entirely from the Alabama Great
Southern, the Southern Railway. having
acquired their entire holdings. The con-
troll in the capital stock of the Cincinnati,
New Orleans and Texas Pacific Company
is to be owned and held equally and joint
cinnati, Hamilton and Dayton interests,
and 1t is hoped that a Reorganization of
that company or a new lease. or the pun
chase of the Cincinnati Southern can be
effected and the line continued under neu-
tral management to be operated independ-
the Cincinnati Hamilton and Dayton on
the north and the Southern and the Ala
bama Great Southern on the south.
This tnsures harmony between the par
ties, stops litigation and fully protects
the interests of Cincinnati in the manner
her citizens are said to prefer. The South
ern Railway Company retains the own

CROPS OF COTTON AND CORN.
THE STATES COTTON ACREAGE CUT
20 PER CENT.

A Decrease of 100000 Tons in the
Purchases of Fertilizers by the
Planters-The Area Devoted TO
Corn Considerably Increased-The
Fact "a Most Gratifyfng One In View
of the Low Prices Realized for Cot
ton.
Atlanta. Ca. May 3-Advance sheets
OF the report OF Commissioner Of Agricul-
ture Nesbitt show that the decrease in
the use Of fertilizers IN Georgia this year
amounts 10 the enormous total OF 10000
tons and that the decrease OF the cotton
acreage in this state is about 20 per cent.
The crop Is. now all in the ground and
this estimate Is based on accurate reports.
The cotton season Is about two weeks
late.
Georgia will make another big corn crop
this year. The reports show an increase
Of IL per cent. in the acreage planted this
year over the Unprecedented crop of last
year
Commissioner Nesbitt says: That there
has been reduction of the cotton area
for the state there can be no doubt, exact-
ly how much we are not just now prepared
TO state, but the falling off OF 10000 tons iuf
the purchases OF fertilizers by the farmers
OF Georgia Is an unerring indication OF q
reduced acreage. In view OF the presenr
short supply OF corn in the markets oe
the world, the increase In th~ area of oun
corn crops is important. The farmers have
taken no chances for short market. and
with the blessings of providence we maY
meet a decline in the price OF cotton
without experiencing the deadly chIlHi
which that fact has so often carried to
our hearts. As the average corn crop oe
the united states for some yeers has BEEN
about l,l60 0OO0Q00 bushels the productions
or the last two years is over 500 900, 600
Dusheis short Of the average. The coun-
Try VIII therefore enter upon the next
crop year with very small stock Of corn
on hand, so small, in deed, that even
should we have another big crop, as i'm
1871, II would require all OF this enormous
yieid to make up for the deficiency of the
crop as this be produced, prices would
probably stil be high because of the
decrease In 1894. Another small crop fol-
lowing the one OF last year would neces-
sarily mean exorbitant prices for corn.
Because Of these facts II becomes more
Imperative than ever before that the
south should Increase its acreage. II
this section Is TO maintain its independ-
ence Of the west so far as corn Is con-
cerned every effort should be made to
plant a larger acreage this year than
ever before. With big corn crop the
south IL better prepared to stand low
prices for cotton than 1t could in any
other way"
