WHO OWNS THE CENTRAL.
The Souths rn Does Not and Cannot,
Says President Spencer.

Atlanta, Dec. II Who owns the
Central Of Georgia. Three times this
question has been before the Georgia
Railroad Commission and every time
the answer is the ssme--the reorgani.
zltion committe of the old Richmond
Terminal Company
M, Samuel Spencer, President OF
hs Southern Railway, was CUES
toned for two hours the other day by
the railroad commission here and he
gave the history of the Central's
ownership in detail
Every company, of course, is owned
by it's stockholders. Back in 1887, q
majority of the old Central's stock was
bought by Pat Calhoun and associates.
They sold 1t to another company called
the Georgia-not the Georgia Railroad,
but the Georgia Company. This lat
ter company was bought by the Rich
mond & West Point Terminal Com.
pany in 1892, the Richmond Terminal
went into receivership. Among its as
sets was the majority stock of the Gem
trail of Georgia.
In 1894, the Southern Reiiway~ was
formed and it bought large part of
the Richmond Terminals property.
The Southern Railway Company, how.
ever, did not get possession or control
of the Central's stock because there
was very grave doubt about the owner,
the Richmond Terminal, being able to
give title which would be good In
Georgia.
So the Richmond Terminal reorgani.
cation Committee held on to the Gen.
trail stock and still holds it.
Mr.. Spencer said that the Southern
does not own a share or dollars worth
of anything in the Central and never
has. He declared that the Southern
does not control and never has con-
trolled the Central. 1t is controlled
absolutely by the President and direc-
tors who are elected by the votes of the
Richmond Terminal reorganization
Committee. Not one of the thres men,
bers of the reorganization committee
has any interest in the Southern Rail. I
way.
From Mr.. Spenc, RS testimony, it a
pears that the Southern is in the posi-.
tion of a man who has bought farm
but cannot get title to it. ~
Mr.. Spencer added that he did not
think it would be good policy for the
Southern to own the Central even If it
were legal to Z o so.
Mejor Harsop, Pfesidenscf the Gen.
traI, testified that the roads operated
as an independent property and COM
petes with the Southern for business
more sharply than with any other road.
