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.

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.

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. MIGHTY BUSY DAY FOR THIS THIEF L.
