MAY MOVE TO ATLANTA.
ton Finds Real Belief There
Double Track to Washington.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 22.-The report is
circulated here as having come from
seemingly authoritative sources that
the Southern Railway contemplates
moving it's offices from Washington to
Atlanta, and that negotiations are now
under way looking to securing a large
amount of office space in the Equita-
Bile building, where the present offices
of the Southern are.
Local Southern people profess igno-
rance on the subject, and the fact that
1t was only a short zine ago that the
Southern's quarters in Washington
were remodeled and enlarged, would
seem to throw discredit apon It, New
ertheless there is considerable talk of
the matter in railroad circles The
Southern was located here about eight
or ten years ago. having had offices in
the kiser building.
There seems to be no doubt that the
Southern will double-track its line to
Washington at as early a date as pos
sible. While there is no definite infor-
nation on the subject to be had here,
telegram has been received by the
Constitution from Vice President w
w. Finlay saying that although no
contracts have been let, the Southern
Is tnaugurating a system of improve
ments with the view of ultimatin dou-
ble-tracking its line between Atlanta

Answer.
Atlanta, Aug. 22.-Controller Gener-
al w. A Wright declined to-day to
give out the letter which he has writ
ten to Tax Receiver NJ. S. Baker, of
Chatham county, with reference to the
digest Of that county. 1t was learned,
however, that Tax Receiver Baker had
failed to foot up the digest by letters
and by districts, as the law requires,
and it was for this reason that the
book was returned.
Mr. Baker made the required addi-
lions and the book is again in the Of
fee of the Controller General. 1t fire.
auently occurs with tax receivers that
some such additions are overlooked
and the books have to be sent back
to be put in shape required by law.
The Controller General, it is stated,
also asked Mr.. Baker for an explana-
ton of the fact that out of 1915 whites
whose names were on the digest there
were 1854 who returned no property
whatever for taxation.
Returned Polls, Owned Stocks.
1t is said he mentioned certain
names of parties who appear on the
digest as having returned nothing put
polls, when it has been reported to
him that they own stocks of merchan-
disc. The names of several parties
were found on the digest as having re-
turned only polls when another record
shows they pay licenses as liquor deal
ers.
The Controller General, it is stated,
desires an explanation of this situa-
ton of affairs to go on file with the
digest This explanation, says Capt.
w. H. Harrison, has not yet been
forthcoming though a second letter
has been written to Tax Receiver Ba-
kerr asking for it.
Capt Harrison stated that the gen.
eral run of those who returned only
polls in the large cities was about one
in ten, whereas in Chatham it is IS
out of 70 Capt. Wright said he eX-
pected to hear something with regard
to the matter within a few days, and
until then preferred to say nothing
about it.
Mr.. Baker was seen about the letter,
but declined to say anything about it
further than that it was a private
matter between the Controller General
and himself.

Tenth of Controller Generals

Tenth of Controller Generals
Claim Allowed.
Atlanta, Aug. 22.-The arbitrators
of the tax returns for the Southern
Railway made their report to Controll-
er General w. A. Wright to-day. In
every case they upheld the returns
made by the Southern, except that of
the Atlanta and Charlotte Air Line.
This main stem was returned at 3d.
900, whereas the arbitrators increased
it to $4,000 per mile.
This will increase the Southern's
returns to the state by about 100000,
less than one-tenth of the amount
which the controller general added to
the returns. The controller general
increased the Southern's returns by
$3,SS6,000. The returns were $4,000, 900
in the first place. The state, therefore,
practically loses out on the arbitration.
The arbitrator were Chairman
Spencer r. Atkinson, of the Railroad
Commission, for the state, Howard
Thompson, of Gainesville, for the
Southern, and J. j. Strickland, of Ath-
ems, umpire. The arbitrators fixed the
fees of NIessrs. Thompson and Strick-
land at $500 each. Judge Atkinson gets
nothing, as he Is salaried official of
