Anent Manila Railroad.

Announcement was made by the Wa
Department a day or two ago regard
ing a proposed bond issue by the gov
eminent, the proceeds to be used fol
the purchase of the Manila railroad fo1
34.oo0,000.
Bankers are interested in the variou:
issues of Philippine and Manila bond:
and have been much concerned regard
sng their security during the debates
on Philippine independence.
Now they are anxious as to the
standing of their securities in the pro-
posed purchase of the Manila road
They desire information on theNques'
fion of the probable use of the pro-
ceeds of the sale of the Manila rali-
road for the retirement of the out
standing Manila Railroad As, which the
United States government guaranteed
as to interest only.
They also want to know whether the
proceeds of the bond issue will be paid
to the shareholders of the Manila rail
road or will be used to take up out
standing Manila Railroad As.
INQUIRY has also been directed as to
whether or not the purpose of the pro-
posed new bond issue contemplates the
acouisition by the Philippine govern
ment of the so-called Manila Railroad
South Lines, having outstanding nrst
mortgage bonds due 1889. and Philip
pine Railway having a bond mortgage
due in 1887.
Information has further been re-
ouested whether the Philippine gov
ernment bonds which it is proposed to
issue would be acceptable as collateral
security for government and postal
savings deposits in the United States
1t is the purpose of the Philippine
government TO use the proceeds of the
sale of bonds to acquire the stock of
the Manila railroad from the stock
holders. No decision has yet been
bonds, which probably will be cared
for by the establishment of sinking
fund
The purchase of the so-called Manila
Railroad South, is contemplated, but
not of the Philippine railway.
The new issue will be acceptable as
collateral for government deposits and
postal savings deposits.

HAL LAMBDIN is NAMED
REFEREE IN BANKRUPTCY
Appointment Was Made by
Judge Speer Yesterday.

Telegraphic information was re-
ceived in tho CITY yesterday an
nouncing that Judge Emory Speer,
Of the United States court, had ap-
pointed Hal Lambdin, of Savannah,
referee in bankruptcy Of the newly
created Cordele district.
The announcement of Mr.. Lamb
din's appointment will be received
with great deal of pleasure in this
section of the state, where he is well
known and popular among a large
circle of friends. He is a son OF the
late Judge W. w. Lambdin, whose
unt:mely death a few weeks ago was
received with so much sorrow all
over the state. He is young and
popular attorney and will no doubt
make an excellent referee. The new
circuit is composed of five counties.
Mr.. Lambdin has not as yet decided
whether he will make his headquart-
ers in Cordele or Fitzgerald.
The action of Judge Speer in ap-
pointing the son of the late United
States court Judge, will no doubt
meet with the approval of the people
of the southern district of Georgia
generally.

AUTO TURNS OvtR:;
PARTY OF FIVE
ESCAPE INJURY
ACCIDENT ON
THE BOULEVARD YESTER-
DAY AFTERNOON WHEN
FORD CAR ROLLS INTO
MARSH AND OVERTURNS.

Five people were pinned under a
Ford automobile out on Glynn
avenue Thursday afternoon, but ev-
eryone of them came out without
scratch
Those in the car were T. Cato
the well known Pullman conductor,
Capt. and Mrs. r. d. Butler and their
three children. The car was moving
out the boulevard almost opposite the
old S. c. Atkinson place when the
accident occurred Mr. Cato, it seems
was driving the. car and on the front
seat with him was Miss Butler, whom
he was teaching to operate the car.
While going at an unusually slow
rate of speed. the car hardly moving.
Mr.. Cato attempted to exchange
seats with the young lady, when the
car left the road, headed into the
marsh and overturned.
One or two people witnessed the
accident and they rushed to the as
sistance of the party, thinking that
most of them had been killed or
badly injured, but one by one they
crawled out, not a single member
of the party receiving the slightest
injury. The fact that the car was
moving so slowly, is, probably all that
saved che party, but even at that it
is miracle how they all escaped
without injury

ENTENTE REPLY IS
ABOUT COMPLETE
AND THEN FORWARDED TO
GERMANY

LONDON, Dec 29-As a result of
the conferences which have been in
progress for several days, the entente
reply. to the German note is now
completed. 1t could go forward to-
day or tomorrow, except for the
necessary formality of transmitting it
to all the allies before final delivery.
This means that the delivery will be
made early in or in the middle of
next week, perhaps on Wednesday.
DELIVER IN PARIS.
The delivery will be made at Paris,
after which the communication will
be forwarded tn Germany through
American channels. The reply is very
long. much more lengthy than the
German note. This point has been
one of the matters of discussion dur
ing the conferences, the objection
having been raised that it is too long
and should be short and sharp. But
there were so many points for eluci-
dation and such a complete difference
of conception of the object and
purposes for which the two sides
went to war that it was found desir
able to extend the note to consider
ablo length.
The presence here of Alexandra
Ribot, the French finance minister,
permitted the French ministry to be
represented
Unusual optimism is shown here as
the result of the final form which the
reply has taken. which is believed to
be such that it will meet with satis-
faction at Washington.
The reply to the American note
will follow within a few days after
the delivery of the reply to Germany.

BRUNSWICK BANK AND
TRUST COMPANY IS
NAMED DEPOSITORY
CAPITAL AFTER
WAR PLEN7 7IFUL
BUT LABOR WILL BE SCARCE is
OPINION OF PRESIDENT OF
A GREAT BANK

COLUMBUS. Ohio. Dec. 29-The
four national sociological and eco
nomic societies were holding final
sessions today at the Ohio State Uni
versity. where problems likely to
arise in this country after the war
were being discussed. I'VE shall have
capital after the war, but shall not
have labor enough to employ it," said
George E. Roberts of the National
City Bank of New York. The labor
of Europe and the capita of American
will have to be brought together. he
said. Conditions seem to favor the
transfer of capital in the form of gold
to Europe rather than the removal
Of the population from Europe to
America"
Mr. Roberts criticised the new fed.
eral reserve act. saying:
"In their anxiety to decentrali2e
the banking business the authors Of
this act neglected to centralize the
gold reserves, which is the most i'm
portant requisite of reserve system
The result Is that while the country S
stock of gold has increased from Jan.
uary to November l, by approximate
" S400, 100000 the federal reserve
bank of New York, upon which the
demand for gold export must newt
ably fail, has gained less than $5,-
100000 and all the federal reserve
banks together have gained less than
$132 100000"
He decared that the general mone-
tary situation, the transfer of gold to
the bank reserves of the United
States and other countries and the
increased use ol pape money in
Europe undoubtedly has and will con.
inue to have an influence for high
er prices.
