SPENT AFTERNOON LOOKING
OVER WORK NOW GOING ON
AT THE TERMINALS.
BIG MOVEMENT IN COTTON
General Manager Lamb Much Pleased
at Settlement OF Question Of Train
Service and Says the A., 3. & A..
viii Stand Behind Brunswick.

E. 7 Lamb, general manager, and
B. l. Bugg, traffic manager of t he
a., b. & A., were in the city yesterday
inspecting the work now underway at
the terminals where 5000 600 will be
spent in additions and Improvements,
including the new Gotten warehouse.
The gentlemen have beeA making a
trip over the line and A4r. Lamb salt-
ed TO a representative OF The News
that the general outlook for business
was never better, that there was a
banner cotton crop in sight aeId that
the A., B. & A. was making prepara
tions to handle what they fully ex
pected to be the biggest cotton ship
ments in the history OF the road,
Much Of this will be handled through
this port for shipment to eastern mar
kets and export, which would add
materially to the Importance of Bruins
wick as a port. Mr. Lamb also stated
that the reeeits Of naval stores would
break all records made in former
years
Regarding the settlement of tht
question of train service, Mr.. Lamb
was not only pleased that the mat
ter had been adjusted in manner
satisfactory to both the road and the
city. but wanted it understood that
the A., b. & A. win stand behind
Brunswick in any movement looking
to the growth and prosperity Of the
city. The terminals, upon which mil
lions have been spent, are here and
it is upon the future Importance Of
Brunswick as a port that the future
of the A.. B & A. depends, so it is
a matter OF good business to work
with the city and if any discrimina-
tion is ever shown it viii be in favor
of Brunswick and not against it
Mr.. Lamb also stated that he as
well as other officials of the road were
very anxious to devise some means of
handling the Oglethorpe for TIE ben
eft of Brunswick
There are few finer hotels in the
South and Mr. Lamb stated that the
A., B, & A. spent $185.000 on the
hotel in furnishings and improve
ments at the time Of purchase. The
Oglethorpe handled in a business-liAy
manner would advertise the city inn
mensely, and would draw big winter
tourist trade which, would contribute
to the growth Of ~ Nanswick in many
ways. A local stocBA company organ
lied to handle the dAIethorpe would
find the A., b. & A. rel hy to cooperate
with them in every Nay possible to
make the venture aAuccess along the
lines stated. and The News suggests
that this matter be considered by the
progressive business men of Rruns-
wick.
After spending yesterday at the
terminals the gentlemen returned to|
Atlanta this morning in the general
managers private car.

REGARDING RIVER HEARING
RIVER NAVIGATION PROJECT
WILL BE HEARD Ger. Il
In WASHINGTON.

The hearing set for October 21 in
Washington before the c6mmittee on
rivers and harbors regarding the
ueepening of the Altamaha, Ocmulgee
and oconee rivers is matter of
deep import for Brunswick as it has
a bearing on the future of the city as
port,
An adverse report was made on
plans submitted when the project was
rirst formulated for the reason that
statistics showing the necessity forI
the improvement and what the pres
ent and prospective commerce might
be, We're not complete. No chances
are being taken this time. Not only
the local board Of trade but Macon
and other towns interested are gath
ering data that should bring about a
reversal of the former recommenda-
tion and give Brunswick system Of
river transportation that will place it
n the front rank OF ports

Your telegram followed by your
special delivery letter in reference
to the hearing on the Altamaha river
system project both duly to hand.
wired you ,today that the hearing in
pursuance of your request has been
fixed for October 81, The arrange
ment heretofore made was for the
hearing to occur on some Monday in
September. This arrangement was
entered into, | think, before you
reacled Brunswick. In writing to
Mr. Conant last week / suggested that
the hearing would probably take place
on either the 23d or Both, they being
the only available Mondays in Sep
tember remaining. The board of en-
gineers telephoned ny office this
morning fixing the 23d instant for the
hearing, but l later called on the
board in person and explained the
situation, showing them the charac-
ter Of information you are seeking to
compile This call resulted in fixing
the hearing for October the 21st. /
get the impression from my talk with
the board that the material thing
necessary to bring about a reversal
of their recommendation already
made is statistics showing an en-
larged present and prospective com
merce. For this reason I think the
information that you are trying to
gather is on the right line and that it
is very important for you to obtain
it. / do not know how the date fixed
for the hearing is going to suit me
personally. but that is a matter of de-
Vail for the future.

SPEECH CHARGING PROGRESSIVE
PLAN MEANS CORPORATION CON-
TRoL OF LABOR AROUSED HIM.
TEST OF THE STATEMENT
Says Overwhelming Majority of Men
Who Control Both steel and Har-
vester Trusts Now Supporting VIII
son or Taft and Opposing Him.

Trinidad, Colo, Sept ia denial
of statements attributed to Governor
Woodrow Wilson in regard to the pro-
gressiye partys attitude toward trusts
was made by Colonel Roosevelt in a
speech here today He said Governor
Wilson had made statements which
were not in accordance with the
facts Governor Wilson. he said, was
quoted as saying in speech at Sioux
Falls, S. D., that the progressive plan
would work for the interests of the
large corporations and would give
them control OF the market for labor.
This is Colonel RooseveIt's Rply:
Mr.. Wilson should be above mis-
quoting facts in order to bolster up
his arguments Nj. Wilson has an
entire right to defend his own plat
form If he feels bold enough to do
so, and an entire right to assail the
progressive platform, but he should
coniine himself to telling the facts as
they are. In his speech yesterday he
stated that the method as it was pro-
posed by the progressives to regulate
the trusts was suggested by Messrs.
Gary and Perkins before the com
mittee of the house Of representatives
named to look into the steel trust,
And he stated it was done to save the
United States steel corporation from
he necessity of doing its business
better than its competitors.
