PLANT SYSTEM TAX RETURNS.
An Increase of $4,000 over Last
Year-Matter of Newly Acquired
Brunswick Property in Dispute.

An Increase of $29,OOO over Last
Year-Matter of Newly Acquired
Brunswick Property in Dispute.
Atlanta. April 25.-The tax returns of
the Savannah Florida and Western
Railroad Company were received to-
day by Comptroller General w. A.
Wright. These are the first railroad
returns of any consequence yet re-
ceived. The returns of this company
this year show an increase of $29, 900
over the amount fixed by the board of
arbitration last year. The S. f. & w.
leased a large piece of property from
the city of Brunswick. which the
comptroller general claims should be
returned by the road.
The road has an indefinite lease on
the property and has built shops on it,
Captain Wright holds it should be re-
turned for $4,000 at least, while the
road holds it belongs to the city and
no return can be required. Captain
W0right has informed the officials of
the company that he has referred the
matter to the Attorney General and
will abide by his decision. For the
past two years it has taken a board of
Arbitration to settle the Plant Systems
returns, but it may be an agreement
will be reached this year without resort
to that eXDendient

PAPERS OF ADRIAN BALDWIN.
teresting Documents to State Uni
Versity.

Prof. Farnham of Yale Presents In
teresting Documents to State Uni
versity.
Athens, Ca. April 25.--Prof. Henry
w. Farnham of Yale, who is at the
head of the Department of Economics
in that institution, is one of the distin-
guished guests Of the city. in attend
ance upon the Southern Educational
Conference.
Prof. Farnham has given to the
University a number of original docu-
ments formerly belonging to Abram
Baldwin, author of the charter of the
University of Georgia.
These documents consist of interest
ing letters from James Jackson, Gov
ernor of Georgia, President John
Adams, Timothy Pickering and 9TH
ers; private account books, illustrating
the prices of those times: large
number of certified copies of acts of
the General Assembly of Georgia,
which appear to have been transmit
ted to Mr.. Baldwin while he was a
member of Congress; also the original
drafts of a number of bills introduced
by him as a member of Congress.
The most interesting document of
all is the original draft of a speech
made by MIR. BALDWIN to the trustees
of the university at Savannah, Feb.
25, 1885. 1t has been asserted on the
authority of Richard Malcolm Johnston
that Mr. Baldwin was the author of
the charter of the University of Geor-
gia. While this is not entirely free
from doubt. the document appears to
strongly support Mr.. Baldwins author
ship, because it contains language in
the same words as the charter, and it
does not seem probable that anyone
else would have felt authorized to use
them as his own.
Prof. Farnham married a Miss Wier
of New Hampshire, a descendant of
Abram Baldwin, and these documents
were found in a garnet in the building
where Mr.. Baldwin was born, the
building stin standing.
This gift of Prof. Farnham is greatly
appreciated by the university and will
be carefully preserved in the library.

outlook than otherwise, although de-
laying seeding somewhat.
Some notable price movements have
occurred this week and taken as
whole, the number of staples and of
securities reporting record prices has
been very large. Among the indus
tries activity has remained as great
as heretofore. and the labor situation
has rather improved particular in the
building and allied trades, which re-
port unsurpassed activity prevailing.
The cereals and to a lesser degree hog
products generally, responded prompt
~ to the Southwestern wheat damage
reports, which, coupled with very
heavy decreases in the visible sup
plies, particularly in Manitoba and the
Northwest resulted in the highest price
of the crop season being reported for
cash wheat. Corn, too almost broke
the season record. Crop reports TO
Bradstreet's indicate that beyond
doubt the Kansas wheat crop has been
hurt by the drought and hot winds
Nothing in excess of three-quarters Of
a crop is looked for even by the most
sanguine, while so per cent. of last
years yield is confidently predicted.
In other sections, however. rains have
benefited the situation. Meats are all
higher, marketable animals are scarce
have advanced in sympathy with ce-
reals, but butter and eggs, alleged to
have been cornered some time ago,
have broken badly, the former to the
extent of cents per pound.
Cotton bulls, encouraged by the
hght crop movements and nervousness
of shorts, have forced prices higher,
the highest prices for the season be-
ing reached when spot sold at 91s
cents. Raw cotton is now l cent
above last years prices, and early re-
ports as to proposed decreases in acre
age are being modified. Reports by
leading Eastern jobbers are that the
past season has been very good one
for dry goods, and tn eonly complaint
now is as to deliveries.
In iron and steel anxiety to get sup
plies of crude material is almost as
great as ever. Southern furnaces ap-
pear to have abandoned the idea of
holding down to the S12 rate for No. 2
foundry, and liberal sales are noted by
independent concerns at SIS and bet
ter.
Business failures number 1871, as
against PA last year; in Canada 20. as
against rs year ago.

Augusta, Ca, April 25.-There was a
conference this afternoon between the
mill presidents in this city, forming the
Manufacturers Association, and COM
mittee of three King Mill operatives,
representing the strikers. The strik
ers reiterated their claims that the
King Mill does not pay the same wages
as the other mills, but were not pre-
pared to submit proofs. They agreed
to collect these and submit them in a
few days to the management of the
King Mill. 1t is believed this confer
ence, which was sought by the opera
tives, is the beginning of the end and
that the strike will soon peter out
If they show any minor discrepancies
1t is believed the King Mill will prompt

fish their claim, they will have no
ground for continuing the strike In
