THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. w FILES sun AGAIflST_ GAS CO ingrahamsaysmeter was forcibly removed. AUeges He Sustained $5,000 Dam ages Because Oas Was Cut Off by Only Company. | Airman James L. Key and the At- ov Light Company figure in a ! gu j t (,>r 15,000 damages filed Wednes day afternon by the alderman as at- I torney for P. L. Ingraham, of No. 108 | Capitol avenue, against the gas com- *Tis alleged that on March 1, 1906, -the defendant company, through fagentA. forcibly entered the premises of the petitioner, and removed a slot jaa meter; that the company is the i only one In this city engaged In the business of furnishing gas, and that the company. In using a public fran chise, must furnish gas to every one 1 without discrlmnatlon. It is further alleged that the petitioner paid In ad- I rtnre for 500 cubic feet of gas, and | that before he had used It, the agents I 0 f the company forcibly entered his house and removed the meter, neces- I iitating the use of oil and lamps at a great inconvenience and expense. The company's agent Is alleged to have tendered the petitioner 50 cents as re- tmburxment for the sunt deposited in the meter, but the money was refused. At the time of the alleged forcible entrance two rooms In the house were rented for (18 a month, but owing to lack of gas, It Is Impossible to rent these rooms. The petitioner claims that his wife objected to the agents of the company entering his house,- but that they paid no attention to her, nor would they give her sufficient time to communi cate with her husband. It Is alleged as a cause for punitive i damages that the agents of the defend- l ant company were rough, uncouth, l overbearing and disrespectful, and that they gave offense to the petitioner's family, and that they Intended, to do so. The connection of Alderman Key with the case Is interesting, In view of the fight he is making In council on the alleged perpetual franchise, which the company claims It possesses.
