Railway Franchise Goes Over.
After one hour of discussion, during
which tlmo Captain Ellis nnd Mr. Wlm-
blsh, of the law^lrm of Ellis, Wlmblah
& Ellis, were hoard from, It was de
cided to hold the franchise of the elec
tric railway between this city, Griffin
and Macon until the next session of
council for definite action. Several of
the council members stated that they
could not vote on so Important an ordi
nance as tho one drawn up by City At
torney Mayson, giving franchise to the
company, without giving It careful con
sideration. It was decided to have cop
ies made nnd one furnished each of tho
council men.
The feature of the ordinance was tho
rate or taxation. It stated that tho
- omp m> must j hi \ anil’,I Ul\ J per * cut
of the gross receipt* In Atlanta for the
first five year# and & per cent for tha
remaining time of the franchise. This
is aside from any other taxation that
may be levied, nnd Is to b© based on n
5-cent fare for every person riding In
the city. There Is also to be a tax on
the gross receipts of express hauled.

He then set forth the advantages of tho

Attorney Wlmblsh compared the

certain streets in New York on which

In answer to Alderman Key’s ques

Liquor Men May Hire Minors.
The ordinance of Councilman Fo|ter
forbidding minors to work in wholesale
liquor houses was amended so as to
allow persons 18 years of age
to work In wholesale houses with the
«’nus*>nt -.f parents «>r Kuanllnns. The
age limit was fixed nt 16 years by tho
committee, but Councilman Foster suc-
ccssfully fought this down, saying It
defeated the very spirit of the ordi
nance.
The ordinance prohibiting saloon
men from selling or giving liquor to
members of the police force under a
penalty of 2100 or 80 days or tho revo
cation of license was sent back to the
police board. The situation created
by the ordinance has been unique.
When it first came up many of tho
councjlmen spoke for It. Later tho
members of the police force showed
their strong aversion to It, and de
clared they would not vote for any one
who had voted for it. About half of
Its supporters switched. Mayor Wood
ward spoke fot the measure when it
first came up; but, after Its passage, he
wrote that the penalty was too heavy.
City Attorney Mayson construed this
ns a veto nnd the council failed to
pass the ordinance over the mayor’s
veto. The vote Monday stood 10 to 10.
