The Act VIII be FayorabIY Reported
at To-Day's Session.
ULTlMATUM OF Mr.. WILLIAMS.
Willing to Put Up Cash Forfeit of
$4,000 and n Bond of $4,000.
Some of the Members Think
This is Insufficient to Insure
the Buildin. of the Pro-
posed Road.

The Senate Committee on Finance yes
terday afternoon decided to report favor
ably the bill to grant a charter to the
Richmond and Washington AIR Line Rail
road Company to build a road to Wash
ington.
Mr.. John Shelton Williams, on the part
of the corporators, agrees to put UP
$50. .DO0 in cash aud bond of $4,000, both
of which are to be forfeited in th- event
the proposed company fails to carry out
its promise to buy the States holdings IN
the Eichmcnd, Fredericksburg and Poto-
mac road at not less than 500 per share
and to build the road
THE AMENDMENT.
An amendment made in the companion
BILLS provides that the proceeds from ths
States stock shall be used to Guy and
retire century bonds 1t is further pro-
v,ded that the Corr,nonweaIth's interests
in The Richmond, Fredericksburg and
Potomac road may be sold as a whole or
in r,arcels. as nray be, in the judgment OF
the Board of Sinking Fund Comm nfssion-
ers, more advantageous to the state.
The two bills-one to charter the new
company and the other to sell the state
stock-will be reported to the Senate to-
day.
The action of the committe.: was not
unanimous. There were some members
who insisted that the guarantee was not
sufficient to insure the building OF rlVili
line to Washington. At least one member
of the committee Insisted that bond OF
s5eo.C0O should be demanded.
FIGHT ON THE FLOOR.
There will undoubtedly be a fight on
the bill on the floor of the Senate. An
effort will be made to amend the act SO
as to require q larger guarantee
1t is understood that $4,000 in casn and
the bond of $4,000 is President W1tfams
ultfmatum.
Members of the committee tried to IN
duce him to give a larger bond. but ne
declined to do SO, insisting that lt "oulo
be rniust to require more of the new
company than the guarantee referred to.

It is being gradually expanded and en-
larged. an In q year or two viii be the
equal of almost any ship yard In the
South outside OF that at Newport News,
which will always probably be tts' most
important, owing to Its tine haroor anu
deep water facilities.
EXCELLENT WORK.
.The Richmond yard is soon to con-
struct a stone wall 1890 feet in iecg tn

CHARGES DENIED
BY DEP ART NENT
Records Show No Complaint from
Mr.. Macrum That His Official
Mail Was Tampered With.

WASHINGTON, Feb. l5.-The signed
statement by former Consul Macrun. re
spectinS his reasons for leaving Pretoria
Tor tine United States, brought forth to-
day :; statement from the State Depart
nrsnt in denial of certa II allegations made
by the eN-ConSul, and a resolution OF
Inquiry in the House as to certain Of Mr..
Macrrm'S charges
The State Departments denial related
chiefly to an assertion that Mr. Macrum
had reported that his nlail had been tam :
pered with by the British authorities,
while the Congressional inquiry related
to This matter and ano,Eer charge that
an alliance existed between Great Britain
and the United States. MIR. Macrum had
said:
1T was over four weeks from the time
the war began before received single
dispatch from my government or per-
sonal letter The mail for the Transvaal
had all been stopped at Cape Town by
order OF the High Commissioner. When
This mail was finally, forwarded to me.
after Colonel Stowe. the American consul
genera, at Cape Town, had secured Its re-
lease, | Trad the humiliation, as the rep.
-escntatire of the American government,
of sitting in my office in Pretoria and
looking upon envelopes bearing the Off
eial seal Of the American government
opened and officially sealed with a sticker
not flying me that the contents had
Sesn read by the censor at DURHAM"
he also charged unreasonable delay in
and supervision Of his cable dispatches
and also of those Of the Belgian and
German conscls.
ALLIANCE ALLEGED.
The inferentlal allegation of alliance
between the Unfsed States and Great
Britain was made in these words:
II wish to state right here, that wher
/ accepted my post as consul knew no
thing of any secnet alliance be;wee,
America and Great Britain and that
had seen nothing in the regulations whict
made the cnllsul of the American re2ub
lie subject to the whinas and caprice OF
an English military censor al Durham
While the State Department was ad
verse to-day to discussing the ex-consuI:
allegations, It made an authoritive state
mena to the effect that q search Of thu
records OF the Department failed to SHOW
that Mr.. Macrum had ever reported Il
