The Debt Suit
Please ajeept this letter to another
I *s an article:
1 cannot now'ake time to answer
vour inquiry about the intelligencer's
recent fulm.nation against eocpro
mine. It ia amusing.
One—The proposal fora proper com
mission is the;exact opposite of ttio
proposition to compromise with ’ Vir
gil ia attorneysattrihuled to the Ga
zette clique. 6* far I know every man
atllliatert with the-clique has always
secretly opposed such a commission as
would publish the truth. Tha certill.
eaies wfre deposited with tha Wall
sired committee to prevent our debt
fro o exceeding the amount far roads,
j and hr 16f/9 holdersagieed to this propo
sition. See tire plan of settlement. I
1 gave Conley a copy of it. The Virginia
! attorneys came in and misled my
Wall street figure-heads to ahanden
! tee propositicn for wliieh holders Ue
. po*ite*l. i was never attorney for any
t committee. We paraded magnates to
cirry out oar p(0|/ositiou,aiid of course
1 refused association when tins propo
s’tiou was abandoned.
This suit is a scheme to fix on us
many millions more than the amount
for roads, which Bennett estimated at
three and a half milliena. The court
must bring us in debt for exceeding
nine millions. Yen sec tlic gigautie
protits they are after. Any deal with
Virginia attorneys or with the Wall
street committee, as now constituted,
means a huge rake-off to Virginia at
torneys, Wall street, promoters, and
West Virginia grafters. A proper com
mission would never suggest compro
mise unless absolutely certain that
there was no hope of escaping a de
citton tor exceeding mne minions. 11
there is no hop# then a pro per com rais.
•ion would ajieak directly to th# per
son* owning the certificates, viz: It
would eliminate Virginia attorney*,
Wall atreet committee, grafters and all
go-betweens, and hiring holders back
to the proposition agreed to 1899
The original suit eelieme was to pro
pose eotupromise before the court gave
a decision stating the account, but the
pr position to appoint a proper com
mission caused grafters to ciiange their
plans and suspend a proposition te
compromise till after a decision for
largely more than nine millions.Ifenee
nobody is proposing eompronoiso After
the court gives decision then they will
propose compromise for several mil
lions more than the amount for roads.
Tv i Yc nr explanation of the Iutel
genc-r’s unexpected, on cal led for, and
vopifcro-H opposition to compromise
ard tb“ Register’s silence may lie cor
rect. The charitable explanation is
that the Intellcgenerr has been mis
led hv grafters to snpp se that those
proposing a proper commission are
willing to saddle the "tate wi*h an
jus' debt The unchsitahte explana
tion of its sudden outburst s to sun
pose that it lies determined to obey the
Klkins msehine ukase against such
action as will best protect the state.
'i his vociferous opposition against a
compromise nobody is proposing will
pave the way tor a large appropriation
to depend suit, although none of the
lawyer* profess to knowef any defense.
IrnagiBC how grafters would stain- ede
f some fearless man demanded joint
debate before the linacce committee,
or if the Mai. or Intelligencer would
print article- by men not asking fav.
or .
I presume you noticed tlie res i.u
tinn -oin end the constitution to atl
ti'ni / M legiala*nre 'o issue bends

vious li.doi'ty ’ A "A previous lia
