The communication follows: "To Ihe General Council of the City of Atlanta. "Gentlemen: You will recall the fact that some time ego your honorable body granted to the Southern Light and Power Company, provided they are Incorporated under the laws of Geor gia—and In cbm of failure to do so the same powers were granted to the North Georgia Electric Company—the right to eatabllah an electric light plant for the R urpone of furnishing heat, power and ght, and for these purposes were granted the further rights of laying conduit* and erecting poles for the distribution of such current, and the said company wan given the right to use by lease the conduits of the Atlanta Telephone Company. "It has come to my knowledge that the nald Southern Light and Power Company haa made ho effort to get a permit for any kind of constructions, cither "by underground or poles, but all Ihe permit* that have been asked for have been In the name of Ihe Atlanta Telephone Company, and It waa gen erally understood In the discussions when that matter wa* up before the committees that the Atlanta Telephone Company had a perpetual charter. Th* Atlanta Telephone Company la asking for a permit on some streets for eigh teen conduits, on another for twenty- fdur conduits and on another as high as thirty conduit*. It appears to me that this la an unusually large amount of conduits lo put on any one' street, aa It would accommodate '12,00* tele phones,. warn 'waK these conduits are-being laid In the streets practically build* a wall nearby seven feet high, and this being placed underground would **- rlounly Interfere with the connection of houses to the sewer*, besides other service pipes.

Inquiry Stilt in Progress. Attention Is called by both the presi dent nnd the Investigators that th* present report Ir only preliminary, and that, certain serious charges, especially those in connection with the alleged Improper use of chemicals and dye* In "doctoring" meats that otherwise would have to be discarded, are still Ihe sub ject of Inquiry. However, the report submitted today more than sustains the most serious allegations that have been made by Independent Investigators respecting the lack of sanitation nnd cleanliness, and shown graphically that the present system of government Inspection Is en tirely Inadequate to prevent germ- laden meat products being thrown gen erally on Ihe market at home a* well ns abroad. ' Conditions are Described, Prefacing their report with the re mark that they have restricted their statements to "those practices and con ditions which we found most common, and not confined to a single house or class of honres." the Investigator* proceed first to describe the condition* of the yards. They say that the pare ments are mostly of brick, laid with deep grooves between them which In evitably nil up with manure and re fuse. “Such pavements," they declare, "esn not be properly cleaned, and Is slimy and malodorous with wet, yielding clouts of Ill-smelling dust when dry.
