Richmond, December S-John Skelton Williams, member of the executive com nittee oe the Seaboard Air Line, today said he thought there was no foundation for the current rumor that the Hawley system or any other railroad were in the market buying Seaboard securities for tie purpose of control.
 The receivers" he said, have demon- strated what can be done with this prop erty under proper management, and the public is now buying Seaboard securities upon the theory that all interests CO., operating and their energies directed to- ward common end, security holders will be able to get the results for which they have waited so patiently and so long,
 New high figures were recorded for the Seaboard Air Line securities on the curb this afternoon when the common touched 75a and the second preferred 47. This is an advance of 7l2 points for the common and points for the second preferred within the past week. The buying today continued to be of good character.

City Clerk Lil- ard made the gratifying report that he is paying all current bills as soon as they are audited and that the city has at last become a self-sustaining financial proposition. Mrs. William H.
