Seems That the Georgia Judges Will
Not Use Passes.
ATLANTA. August 16.—Hereafter
when the Judges of the supreme court
rid# on railroads th-y will pay their
fare. Just like any ordinary traveler.
For a time It may seem a little strange
to walk up to a ticket agent and buy
ticket, but this will soon be over.
There waa some doubt uh to whether
the law passed by the legislature was
operative or not until the Judges re
ceived the benefit of the Increase In
salary, but the sup/'-me court took tlja
position that It could not be in a posi
tion to be criticised about the matter,
and besides it seemed from the act to
bo the Intention of the legislature to
prohibit judges from riding free.
What octlon the Judges gf the su
perior courts will take In the matter
Is not known. It I* presumed, how
ever, that they, too. will follow the
precedent set by the supreme court
and give up the free transportation,
despite tbe fact that they get no in
crease In salary for some time to come.
The anti-pass bill does not apply to
to Judges of the city courts nnd In

doors is the fnside Inn, situated ac

FIRE CHIEF REPRIMANDED.
Savannah Mayor Says Maguire Had
No Right to Sound Riot Call.
The following is taken fronj the
Savannah News of Tuesday. August
16:
For sounding the riot call on the Big
Duke yesterday morning in order to
summon the soldiers who were to be
sent to Statesboro, Fire Chief Maguire
was severely reprimanded by Mayor
Myers, both over the telephone and by
letter during the day. The riot call
should only be sounded on Instructions
from the mayor. Mayor Myers says.
In a short letter to the fire chief,
thf mayor stated this fact, and added
that the chief should have known so.
A repetition, the mayor stated, would
result in the matter being brought
before coifncll for action.
"It was all right to sound the special
call thnt Col. Grayson hnd agreed up
on;" said the mayor. "It wns right
and proper, but he had no authority
at all to sent In the riot call. I would
not order the riot call myself unless
the governor could not be ranched,
and there was very serious danger of
trouble."
The mayor did not object to tho
troops being summoned bv the Big
Duke. He clmply objected to the. riot
call being used. No one but tbe may
or. he asserts, hns *nv right at all t*
have tbe riot call sounded on that bell
The sheriff and other officials desig
nated by the law, of course, hare the
right to call out troop* under certain
conditions, but os the bell la the city
property, the summons, if by the Big
Duke, would have to go through the
Mayor. The call by the Big Duke is
one of last resort, the mayor says, nnd
should not be used unless aboolutely
necessary*
•There had been no urgent request
even for the riot call/* said the mayor.
’’Col. Grayson asked that some special
signal that had been agreed upon
given."
