Louisiana Railroad Commis

Restored.
Hpeiditl to The Georgian.
Huntsville, Ala.. Sept. 19.—In the case
of the Cumberland Telephone nruj Tel
egropli Company against the railroad
commlsslcn of Louisiana, an amended
Hll of complaint asking that the de-
fenffitnt be reatralned from enforcing
certain laws regulating the business of
the complnimint In Louisiana. Judge
David D. Shelby of the United tSates
court of appeals has handed down his
opinion.
The defendant Is ordered to show
reuse before Hon. Eugene D. Saunders
or some other Judge of the said court
at the United States circuit court room
In Now Orleans, La.. October *, why
Injunction pendente llte at prayed for
In the amended bill should not Issue.
The motion for n restraining order
to remain In lorco until the hearing of
the application tor .in Injunction is
meruled and denied.
An Injunction restraining the railroad
immlsslnn from hindering tho
company In the abolishment of the half
rates for night and Sunday business
and for making extra charges for cable
business Is prayed.
Judge Shelby In denying the motion
r a restraining order says there Is
nothing before him to show that tho
enforcement of I he laws would work
Irreparable Injury, the only evidence
on that point being the petition of the
complainant and the decision of tho
commission holding that the present
rates are reasonable and just
TO BE
All Atlanta churches will be tender,
ed a (Ian for co-operative charity work
which was adopted at a meeting of the
hoard of directors of the Associated
Charities at the rssldenct of R.
Oulnn Tuesday night. The* Idea Is to
so regulate charity In Atlanta that no
‘ b ases of need may be overlooked and
none receive more than 1s due. through
misunderstanding.
Dr. C. H. AVIlmer was chosen chair
man and Dr. David Marx vice chairman
of' a committee of ministers which will
present the matter to every church In
Atlanta. The question of how churches
should go about charity work has been
agitated for some time and It Is be
lieved that the plan which will be of
fered by the Associated Charities Is tho
best solution.
Atlanta’s churches are considered
liberal In their gifts to ths poor and
their efforts have proven effective, but
I: Is thought that by a closer eo-oper-
utlon. such as Is proposed by the Asso
ciated Charities, which Is In a way tho
medium of charity In Atlanta, will re.
cult In greater good.
Among other things discussed at the
meeting Tuesday night was the com
ing of Miss Jane Addams. one of the
most famous women.In the world, who

You know just what you’re
getting when you buy here
In buying clothes, or anything else,
it’s a good thing to know exactly what
you are getting; the ignorance of the bijyer
is often a great source of profit to some
merchants.
When you see a Hart, Schaffner &
Marx or Rogers, Peet & Co. label in a
garment, you’re at once in possession of
all of the knowledge you need; it tells you
everything; we don’t need to say a word.
You know it’s all-wool, all right in style
and tailoring; and we’ll guarantee'a fit

VIADUCT FINISHED
AFTER LONG DELAY!
CITY LOSES MONEY
Forfeits, If Collected, Would
Have Amounted to
$15,000.
The Washington street viaduct will
be thrown open to *he public Frlduy.
Announcement to this effect was
made by the contracthrs to City Engl
ncer Clayton and to Acting Mayor Pe
ters Thursday morning.
After many months of delny and
waiting and nearly a year after the
time limit ret, the viaduct for which
the peooJe clamored so long and over
which council fought many a hard Wit
tie. will be put Into Use.
The viaduct was to have been com
pleted by the first of December last.
The contract was let In halves, the
south. end to Grant Wilkins and the
north end to the W. J. Oliver Company.
In order to hasten the construction, I
forfeiture clause was put Into the con
tract, the forfeit being $50 a day for
each contractor for every day after
December 1 until the work was com'
pleted.
Council, despite the fact that It was
stated that more had been paid on ac
count of this time limit and the forfeit
ure clause, voted to relieve the con
tractor* of th* forfeiture. The Oliver
Company did not complete Its half of
the contract until about three or four
months, after the limit, and Mr. Wll
kins' half was about nine month* late
In completion.
Cost $15,000 Extra.
If the forfeiture had been collected
It would have meant a saving of about
$15,000 to th* city on the contracL
The contracts were let In June. 190*.
The cost of the viaduct was $I2*$70,
of which th* Louisville and Nashville
railroad Is to return to the city $57,000
for that part of the viaduct crossing Its
tracks. The cost of th* viaduct to the
city, therefore, was $69,$70.
The viaduct extends from Washing'
ton street to Gilmer street snd will be
of Inestimable value to the residents of
the seetjon of the city In which It Is lo
cated.
Although It will be turned over to
the public Friday, a small part of the
paving on It has not yet been laid.
GIVES UP_HIS FIND
*Fellow Unfortunate Who
Lost Money Pays Fine
For Thomas.
That there Is honor among men who
Thomas’ fine was paid by Edward Love.
Both had been arretted Monday night.
They didn’t know each other and were
not together when arrested; In fnct,
they had nothing In common except a
lag. for Love hod money and Thomas
lad not, and their personal appearance
• as considerably different.
But Tuesday morning when Thomas
was trying to find out where he was
snd was wondering when the blue-
striped moneksy would appear, he saw
hlng that was just as startling to
him. This was two $5 bills, which were
lying on ths floor In the station home,
Just beside his bunk. After staring at
the greenbacks for a few minutes,
Thomas decided they were real, or else
he wanted to find out If they were, and
he grabbed at them.
He found they were there and ho
eaptured them. Then he wrote a not*
to Sergeant Mayo, telling him how he
had found the money there, and sent It
out to the front office by a trusty. At
the time he sent tt there he knew that
he probably would have to pay a fine
when he faced the recorder later In the
day, but he made no mention of this In
his note. Nor did he apeak about the
Incident when he was arraigned before
the recorder, who fined him $1.75.
When Mr. Love got sober he was let
out. He said he thought he was short
about $10, but as a considerable sum
hod been taken away from him when
he was brought Into the station house,
this was doubted. When no one claimed
the $10 that Thomas had found It was
thought that perhaps It really did be
long to Love, and he was notified. Ho
Called at the police station Wednesday
afternoon, was told the circumstances
of Its recovery and Immediately paid
Thomas’ fine.
