PRESIDENTS REPORT
To the Stockholders of the A. & N. C. R. R. Co.
Gentlemen: I herewith submit my annual report as President
of your Company for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1914.
The semi-annual rental for your property has been paid promptly
by the lessee and a dividend of 1 1-2 per cent has been declared
both in January and July of this year.
I do not think it necessary to go into detail as to the affairs of
your Company. A careful perusal of the reports of the Finance
Committee and your Treasurer will give you all the information
as to the income and the disbursements of the same.
The Lessees have on deposit with the Wachovia Loan & Trust
Company, of Winston-Salem, N. C, $80,000.00 6 per cent North
Carolina bonds due April 1st, 1919, and one first mortgage bond of
the Goldsboro Union Station Company for $28,000.00 due August 1st,
1933, for the protection of your interest.
Your attention is called to the report of a special committee
appointed at your suggestion at the last annual meeting of your
Company to confer with the proper officials of the Norfolk-Southern
R. R. Co. and see if an amicable agreement could not be reached
relative to matters set forth in the reports of your former Presi-dent
and Expert, of which I beg to advise have been satisfactorily
adjusted.
The Lessees have paid all taxes for the year 1913 and all notes
and interest due on the purchase price of the Atlantic Hotel with
the exception of four notes of $500.00 each, two of which are due
and payable January 4th, 1915, and two on January 4th, 1916, and
also are carrying $228,200.00 fire insurance for the protection of
your property.
You will find herewith attached reports of your Auditor and
Expert giving in detail matters handled by them.
All of which is respectfuly submitted,
H. H. GRAINGER,
President.
SPECIAL COMMITTEE'S REPORT
The undersigned Committee, appointed to meet with the Com-mittee
of the Norfolk-Southern Railroad, with a view of settling the
matters in dispute between the Atlantic & North Carolina Rail-road
and the Norfolk-Southern Railroad, met at Kinston on Decem-ber
29th, and went into a very exhaustive discussion of all the mat-ters
at issue, as set forth in the Annual Report made to the Direc-tors
by S. M. Brinson, Attorney.
1st. SHOPS AT NEW BERN.
It seems that a part of the shops at New Bern were burned, and
which, it is claimed, have never been rebuilt. By reference to the
original valuation, we find that part of the shops at New Bern
which was destroyed by fire was valued at $8,000.00. The Norfolk-
Southern Railroad admits that they have not replaced this partic-ular
building, but that they have spent $5,500.00 in building other
buildings, better suited for their purposes, and that they have pur-chased
land valued at $2,500.00, the deed for same being taken in
the name of the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad Company;
and they further state that they have put side tracks in the space
formerly occupied by the burned building, (which were absolutely
necessary), and that the shops, as now constituted, are better suited
for the purposes for which they are intended than they would be
if they rebuilt the old burned building. They state, however, that
they will rebuild the building, if the Directors of the Atlantic &
North Carolina Railroad insist upon it, after fully acquainting
themselves with the facts. They also state that it is their purpose
to move the shops to another location, as the time is fast coming
when they will need more space, which cannot be secured, adjacent
to the present location, at any reasonable figure. Your Committee
recommends that the action, thus far taken in this particular by
the Norfolk-Southern Railroad, be approved.
2nd. WHETHER PROPERTY OF A DIFFERENT CHARACTER
MAY BE SUBSTITUTED TO COVER ITEMS OF IN-VENTORY.
The Norfolk-Southern Railroad does not claim that this can be
done, but they do claim that one engine, valued at as much as two of
the engines turned over to them by the Atlantic & North Carolina
Railroad, can be substituted for the two; and your Committee
agrees with them. They also contend that freight cars may be
substituted for other freight cars. In other words, a box car may
be substituted for a flat car, it being their general policy to pro-vide
themselves with equipment best suited to their purposes as
common carriers, and it seems to your Committee that this is best
for the Norfolk-Southern Railroad, as well as the Atlantic & North
Carolina Railroad.
3rd. WHETHER PROPERTY BOUGHT WITH THE $250,000.00
AND HERETOFORE INVENTORIED IS TO BECOME A
PART OF THE PERMANENT INVENTORY AND THE
PROPERTY OF THE ATLANTIC & NORTH CAROLINA
RAILROAD.
To this the Norfolk-Southern Railroad agreed, having been ad-vised
that after once putting this in the inventory they cannot now
recede from that action.
4th. MARKING THE PROPERTY FOR IDENTIFICATION.
The Norfolk-Southern Railroad has agreed to do this, and they
advise that they have already marked with iron plates as follows:
"Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad, Lessors" (which, Col. Rodman
advises, is in accordance with the law) the following equipment:
Ten (10) locomotives, Twenty-eight (28) passenger cars, Eighty-nine
(89) freight cars. Remaining to be marked: Three (3) loco-motives,
One (1) passenger car, One Hundred and fifty-three (153)
freight cars, which, Mr. Hicks advised your Committee, would be
marked as soon as they could be gotten to. The locomotive and
passenger cars will be marked right away, and the freight cars
as soon as they can get them back on the line, these orders having
been issued from the headquarters of the road.
5th. THEY CLAIM THAT THEY HAVE NOT SUBSTITUTED
ANY MORTGAGED PROPERTY.
6th. LOG CARS.
The Norfolk-Southern Railroad advised that they have sold to
the Jno. L. Roper Lumber Company ninety-one (91) log cars, (which
were of no service whatever to them in their operations), and sub-stituted
other cars in their place. Mr. Hicks advised that log cars
were not considered the proper cars to go on the main track of a
Railroad at this time; that they had no use for the cars; but, if
we insisted upon it, they would purchase ninety-one (91) log cars,
together with those now in possession of the Company, and pile
them up on the side track so that we could inventory them each
year, which, however, will be a great disadvantage to the Norfolk-
Southern Railroad, as well as a waste of money. He advised that
he was perfectly willing to substitute freight cars, box or flat,
in place of the log cars, and mark with a plate as above set forth.
7th. SHALL THE LESSEE COMPANY PLACE ROLLING STOCK
ON THE TRACK OF THE ATLANTIC & NORTH CARO-LINA
RAILROAD COMPANY FOR INSPECTION AND IN-VENTORY.
Mr. Hicks explained to your Committee that this is next to im-possible,
unless we wish to very seriously interfere with the traffic
6
of the Norfolk-Southern Railroad, as a whole. That these cars go
over the entire country, and he made the following statement as
an example: That they had one car that left their line about a year
ago, and, in tracing it, it was located in Seattle, and they have been
three months trying to get that car back on their track. However,
what is known as the "Car Account", he stated, was absolutely
accurate, and would be submitted to us at any time, showing that
the cars were still in existence. Your Committee thinks this is a
reasonable request. The Norfolk-Southern Railroad Company, in
our conference, further stated that they had spent a great deal of
money they did not feel they were legally called upon to do, viz:
The paving of the Streets of New Bern, at a cost of $30,000.00,
which they have not raised any point of, although they are of the
opinion that the City of New Bern had a better claim against the
Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad than they did against the Nor-folk-
Southern.
8th. DEPOTS AT GOLDSBORO AND LAGRANGE.
They state that contracts for new depots in these towns have
been let.
9th. AVERAGE FREIGHT RATES NOT TO BE IN EXCESS OF
THOSE IN EFFECT AT THE TIME OF THE LEASE.
The Norfolk-Southern Railroad claims that the average freight
rates are not only not higher, but that they are lower, and prom-ises
to submit to us a schedule of the rates in existence at the time
of lease and also those in existence today. They stated, however,
that there were some special rates given on certain commodities,
by the Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad, prior to the lease, that
have been raised, for the reason they were always illegal and they
could not put themselves in position of violation of the law, even
should they so desire.
In conclusion, your Committee is of the unanimous opinion that
we have nothing to fear from the management of the Norfolk-
Southern Railroad, who were fair and liberal in their construction
of the lease, yielded every point that we raised, and seemed to be
disposed to do anything in reason, and in accordance with the lease.
Respectfully submitted,
