All Is Well.

Association here. has taken keen in
terest in recent Wall Street develop
ments, Speaking of the general fl
nancial situation, he said to a CORE
spondent:
What is the matter with Wall
Street anyway? Are they going
crazy there? Every one is as blue as
indigo, and half the people do not
know what they are blue about. All
that people have to do in times like
these is keep a clear head and avoid
getting ratified; then everything will
come out all right.
Money Hard to Get.
Yes, know money is hard to get.
l alluded some time ago to the diff
Guilty the railroads were experiencing
in obtaining loans at a time when
time money rates were apparently
easy. Selling short term note issues
is apt to occasion inconvenience when
the notes happen to mature in dis
agreeable money market. But the
railroads have probably done the best
they could do in a situation where 1t
has been difficult to sell bonds, even
in cases where the borrowing road
has had the security to offer.
The money market is a good deal
of a problem, but it will work out
all right.
why, those nervous fellows in Wall
Street, who get worked up because
money rates are going up or because
the stock market Is going down. ought
to realize the United States viii de-
rive ten billion dollars new wealth
out of the ground this year. or a sum
which exceeds the worlds gold pro-
duction for ten years.
Il want to say, too, that the Wash
ingtOn situation is all right To hear
some people talk, you would suppose
that the Administration was bent up
on upsetting things, That is perfect
foolishness."

Two Great Railroads Show I'M

Last Year.

Striking confirmation of the trutl
Of the reports about the solidity of tn
financial situation of the South is fur
nished to-day in the following dis
patch to The Georgian:
LOUISVILLE June 17.-That
the South is enjoying a period of
great prosperity is indicated by
the earnings Of her railroad sys-
TENS. The report of the Louis
vile and Nashville Railroad shows
that the gross earnings for the
fiscal year, which ends July l, will
show an increase of more than
100000 over the same period
.ast year.
The statement of the Southern
Railway, whose fiscal year ends
July l, shows that the gross earn
ings to the first week in June have
been S64,439,4 04, an increase of
the same period last year of S4,-
5S9,377.
This makes it certain that, for
the current fiscal year, these two
great railraod systems of the
South win show increases in
earnings over last year that will
exceed $500, 900.
Also, James ]. Hill, the empir,
builder, declares in an interview il
The Georgian to-day that the pessim
ism of Wall Street is not well found
ed; and he points out that the United
States will derive $4,000, 900 O
new wealth out of the ground thi
year, or sum to exceed the world
gold production for ten years.
The Georgian during the past weel
published interviews with many bust
ness men of Atlanta, and on Sunda!
The Sunday American published al
elaborate interview with Asa Can
der, in which they all declared tina
the financial situation in the South i
strong, and they warned against tn,
