Hartman Latest Conquest.
The Central of Georgia
St. Louis GlObe-Democrat.

Some of Mr. Harriman's subordinates
are Boosting that he made 81, 900, 900 in his
Georgia Central deal. The public is
ready to believe this story. 1t has pref
ty vivid recollection of other conquests
by Mr. Hartman, in which his profits
ran UP into much larger figures than
these. Still, 81, 000, 900 profit in q single
transaction is large enough to impress
the popular Imagination. 1t would have
been Thought marvellous back in the days
of Commodore Vanderbilt, Daniel Drew
and James Fisk. Even in the time. or
William H. Vanderbilt it would have been
considered a feat of large proportions.
Familiarity with bigger transactions in
recent years makes the public thilk this
Georgia Central strike" Is not wonder
full. And Mr.. Hartman has done more
than any other one man to make these
achievements commonplace.
Although the acquisition Of the Geor-
gia Central has been pending for about
year, ii was not finally and officially
contaminated until week ago. 1t IL an
important exploit The Georgia Central
operates about 1900 miles of road. BY its
transfer to the Hartman system che llli-
nois Central acquires two steamship. lines
at Savannah, one running to New York
and the other to Boston, to re-enforce
the lines which 1t has from New Or
leans. The Southern Pacific is also en-
abled to. divide its steamship and, rail-
way business. 1t has got into cloEer con-
tact with the Atlantic seaboard.
"A great many persons in New York
would be glad to hear of my DEATH,
exclaimed Hartman the other day in
Vienna. He added, significantly, But
1 will live to show than that / am not
vet of the stage" This is probably
something more than an empty boast. A
few months ago he entered the directo-
rate of the New York Central. He 10

son TO believe that the statement con-
tained inaccuracies THAT state of Chair
man McLendon didn't go before the inter-
state commerce commission. They didn't
know anything about it. They never saw
it." -s
Senator Slater asked that the inaccu-
rate parts be designated more particu-
larly in the statement by the witness.
You assume though, that - finally
objected Judge Hines
mo, I don't assume anything" replied
Senator Slater, Fastening to re-state his
question.
Mr.. McElreath: do you testify that
the source from which Chairman McLen-
don's figures on these points were taken
were correct, or that the figures them
selves were correctly taken?
IT mean to testify that the sources from
which they were taken were incorrect, +"
replied Judge Hines with some warmth.
Mr.. Anderson of Chatham, finally re-
marked that the testimony was getting
into matters with which the committee
had nothing to do, and asked a leading
question to get the testimony back to the
main line. Iv-
These figures that Mr.. McLendon
quoted were the official figures on the
records of the interstate commerce COM
! mission, were they not?" he asked.
"They WERE" replied Judge Hines.
Mr.. Sheppard: "You based your hope
of winning the case upon your ability to
successfully combat those figures, did
you not?"
'I did," replied the witness.
Judge Hines said that he had expected
more of the chairman of the commission
than from any other member because he
thought the chairman ad more informa-
ton at is command on the subject Chair
man McLendon said" Judges Hines, is a
man of industry and intellectual ca
pacity.' 's
Mr.. McLcndon took up the question.
did you not write that letter to the
other commissioners at my request, ask
ing then for facts to help the states con-
tention of this case?"
IT did"
did 1 not tell you then that I would
not give you the statement which I had
, prepared representing four months work
until you had the replies of the other COM
| missioners?''
You made that statement"
II told you that I wanted, myself, the
| benefit of the facts that the other COM
missioners would furnish you, dtdn I?''
You did"
Senator Slater returned to the charge
which he said Judge Hines had made,
that the figures quoted by Mr.. McLendon
in his statement were incorrect. Judge
I Hines denied having made the charge in
that specific term. Mr.. Anderson cleared
the water up and the committee, finally
! seeing that the case in question is still
pending before the interstate commerce
commission, decided not to go too far be-
hind the question of the correctness or
correctness of the figures quoted by Mr..
| McLendon.
The committee adjourned at 5:45 o'clock
until 10 o'clock Tuesday. The members
will ask for leave of absence from both
houses to continue the investigation

rates in classes B, c, D and F II the
roads did not grant lower rates on car
load lots, and that they would favor the
rates II carload schedules were reduced.
He also asked Mr.. Hill IL ii were not
true that Mr.. Hill thought this would be
a discrimination against the small dealer
Mr.. Hill said this was true.
Mr.. McLendon drew a distinction be-
tween the A. P. Morgan grain case and
the commissions case. He added that
1t was in connection with the small grain
dealers he had said he was opposed to
making the commission a tail to every
body's kite. This remark had been broad
Iy construed by Mr.. Hill as making a
fool of the commission"
Adjournment was taken at O'Clock
until in the afternoon.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-
dition Of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, ana when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition.. hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh. which is moth
