MAY ASK FOR HIGHER RATES
RAILROAD OFFICIALS BELIEVE
THEY SHOULD BE ALLOWED.

Vice President Egan of the Central
Says He Knows of No Effort to In
duce the Commission to Recognize
Advances-It Is Well Known What
Views Railroad Men Entertain,
However, and Such an Effort
Would Not De as Great as That
Made Recently in the West-RaiI-
road News and Notes.
The advance of railroad rates in the
West may be followed by an effort to
raise the rates In Georgia. 1t is not
known that such an effort will be made.
but it is well known that railroad officials
believe rates in this state are too low when
a comparison is made with the cost of
other things than railroad transportation
The Morning News has had several in
terviews of late with prominent officials
who called attention to the fact that there
has been a decided advance in the prices
of many commodities all over the country
notably material and supplies used in che
construction and operation of railroads
Care was taken to point out that there
has been no corresponding increase in the
price of transportation. This talk has
been followed with speculation as to the
action that may be taken in Georgia.
Vice President Egan of the Central, was
one of those interviewed on this subject
There appeared to be much reason In the
views ne gave, and a number of railroad
officials have since concurred in what he
had to say. They think the roads do not
charge enough when it is considered that
the prices on what they have to use have
gone up, as have those on all other manu-
featured products, and rates have remain
ed the same.
Mr.. Egan was asked, in view of the adj
vances made in the West, if it were like
ly that there would be any effort made by
the railroads in Georgia to increase the
rates. His answer was that he had heard
of no such effort Whether one is an
ticipated he said he did not know. 1t is
by no means improbable. however, that
the railroads will go before the State Com
mission with some such petition. With
the officials entertaining such ideas as they
have expressed, it is safe TO presume that
they will try to induce the commission,
which has the fixing of rates, to grant an
increase.
1t is improbable that an increase of so
decided nature as that in the West will
be made in Georgia if there should be
any at all. Mr.. Egan says the conditions
are altogether different. The volume of
business in the West is much greater than
in the South, the roads hauling a great
deal more freight, but the rates are low
er. The advance of 40 per cent. in the
West would not be duplicated in Geor-
gia. Rates in this state have been some
what higher on account of their being less
business, and the increase would be less
than that which has been ordered by West
ern lines.

Among the men who have made name
for themselves by their own personal
exertions we wish to mention the name
Of Prof. A. J. Dexter. This gentleman
has thoroughly earned the right to be
called a self-made man. 1t is true that
10 has been endowed with gifts and pow
ers that are possessed only In a limited
extent by very few, but the fact that he
has put these gifts to use that has proved
of the greatest benefit to his fellow men
entitled him to an additional amount of
respect. His career has been a checker
ed and interesting one, but the suns and
winters that have come and gone since
his boy-hood days have only given him
additional strength TO perform the work
in which he is engaged
His apartments at 21 Laura street are
fitted up in a cozy and comfortable man

WANTED TO WIPE UP THE OFFICE
But a Constable With n Billy Wiped
Up Charles Lundy.

There was a lively time around Magis-
trate Beyans office yesterday afternoon
when a prisoner. who was ordered to Jail,
started in to clean out the office.
Charles Lundy, painter. had been ar
rested earlier in the day on warrants of
assault, and of breach of good behavior,
sworn out by Mr.. T. ]. Hogan, who had
been threatened with personal violence by
Lundy the night before, and was roundly
abused yesterday when he CHANGED to
meet Lundy on the street.
Lundy, who had been drinking, was in
an ugly humor when brought in the magis-
trate's office, and the knowledge of the
charges against him did not tend to inn
prove his temper. He was told that he
would have to furnish bond or go to Jail
He gave the name of a friend, Nwho he
said, would go on the bond, and a mes
senger was sent to have the matter ar
ranged Lundy was asleep when the mes
senger returned with the information that
knowing the condition of the prisoner, his
friend had declined to sign the bond. The
magistrate told his officers to take the
prisoner to jail and they woke him up and
got as far as the door with him when he
decided not to go. He is large and
powerful man, and rid himself of the Of
hcer with no great effort. He then at
tempted TO strike Magistrate Bevans, who
had started forward to prevent his escape,
but the sight of pistol In the hand OF the
magistrate induced him to change his
mind, and he went for Deputy Sheriff
Hartigan, who was also In the room, and
had come forward when the trouble COM
menced The two men clinched and
struggled around the room for several
minutes before Hartigan managed 10 give
him a couple OF raps over the head with a
billy" This took all the fight out Of
him. and falling to the floor he called
out that he gave up. His head bled free

man were secured. the Office presented
sinister aspect.

the second time he raised no objection,
and until his case Is called before Judge
Norwood he will probably spend most Of
the tins. nursing very sore head.

REACHED A COMPROMISE
Mrs. VanGiesen's Damage Suit
Against Bank Settled,

Against BANK settled.
The action for damages brought In the
Superior Court by Mrs. Carrie A. Van
Glesen against the Chatham Bank was
settled yesterday by agreement between
the counsel for plaintiff and defendant.
The basis of the compromise agreement
was not made public, but as the suit was
for $3.50, and the statements of fact and
contentious of law made out what was ap-
parently a good prima facie case, there
was probably a respectable sum paid over
to induce its withdrawal.
From the original petition In the case
it appeared that two checks of the plain
tiff, drawn by her husband as her agent
had been refused payment by the bank
when they were presente@. 1t was alleged
at the time of the presentment there were
more than enough funds on hand, and
that the refusal to pay was the result of
the carelessness or indifference of the off,
GERS of the bank. Through the dshonor
of the checks drawn by her agent the
plaintiff charged she had been injured IN
business standing and credit in the estl-
nation Of her business correspondents in
other states of the Union. She therefore
asked damages in the amount of $1,000
The compromise reached between the par
ties has brought the litigation to a close.
Judge Falligant disposed of a number of
certorari cases in the Superior Court dur
ing the morning The work of clearing the
docket of these cases steadily continues
and there is exhibited already a percepti-
BILE decrease In their number. The motion
and certiorari docket will be called on each
other day of the present week.

A member of the syndicate that has

and also another from the same source,
stating that a committee of The directors
of the trust company had investigated
closely and announced that a payment Of
ca per cent. Of amounts due might be
made to depositors with the balance in
two weeks, II the directors thought proper
and that the stock viii bring anywhere
from $lS5 to 500, the par value being 5000
which shows clearly that the suspension
Of the company was not so serious a. re-
ported.
The trust company had underwritten
some Of the securities OF the consolidation
IT was this that induced the cry that the
Seaboard consolidation was about to be
threatened. ID is understood that the
amount underwrltten by the company is
comparatively small, Baltimore and Rich
mond concerns having cared for many Of
the securities.

MILEAGE BOOKS SURE.
F. C. & p. OmciaI Writes President
krauss.


The resumption of the sale of mileage
books by the Florida railroads seems to
be an assured fact. President Max Krauss
of Post A, of the Travellers Protective AS
sociation, received a letter yesterday from
Mr.. d. E. Maxwell, of the Florida Gem
tral and Pennsular Railroad, confirming
a previous statement to the same effect
made to Mr.. Krauss at a personal inter
view. The first letter went astray, hav-
ing been forwarded to Mr.. Krauss a. some
point in Florida, and the one received yes
terday by Mr.. Krauss IS a duplicate. In
this letter Mr.. Maxwell says:
Noting your request with regard to the
resumption of the sale of mileage books
by this company, 1 beg to advise that it
is our expectation to put these books on
sale at an early date, of which I will adj
wise you promptly as soon as the matter
has been decided upon"
Both Mr.. Maxwell and General Passo-l-
ger Agent MacDonell. Of the Florida Cen
trail and Peninsular Railroad, stand high
in the estimation of the travelling men,
and this latest evidence of their good will
will certainly not tend 10 decrease the
favor in which they are held. President
Krauss will make a report upon this mat
ter, at the meeting of Post A, to be held
at the Screven tomorrow afternoon.
