AFTER JOEL HURTS LINES.
ATLANTA’S “OENEHAI. ORDIXASCE - ’
MADE TO APPLY TO THEM.
His Company May HnveMo Give l p
Per Cent, of I( firm’ Receipts.
Claimed the Atlnntie Knllwny an.l
Power Company Become Subject to
the Ordinance —Council Adopted It*
Committee's Heport and AMU Try
to ( olloct.
Atlanta, Aug. 22.-Street railway mat
ters, which have been ag tatiner the city
for many months, took a >ent<ational tarn
to-day when tho City Council Committee
on Electric and Other Railways. brought
in a report declaring that, because of cer
tain recent of the Allnnta Railway
nd Power Company, that corporation has
placed itself under the terms of the “gen
era! ordinance,” adopted by Council last
summer.
The chief feature of this ordinance :s
a section requiring the company operat
ing under it to pay annually into tho
city treasury, not less than 5 per cent, or
its gross receipts. When the Atlanta
Railway and Power Company becomes
eubjcct to the ordinance, by the same
terms, ©ll other street railway lines in
Atlanta must begin to pay the same tax.
It is estimated the sum that Atlanta will
derive from this source will be $35,000 to ,
$40,000 per annum for public schools, and
public improvements.
The liability began, It is claimed, last
June. “The company put in a switch at
the corner of Capitol avenue nnd Geor
gia avenue, connecting two lines and ex
tending the route of the Capitol Avenue
line to Grant Park,” said the committee.
"At the same time the company con
structed a track on Georgia avenue, be
tween Capitol avenue and Martin street,
four blocks, making the line at that
point a double track system. This clearly
puts them under the provisions of the
general ordinance.”
Council adopted the report of the com
mittee, and will proceed to try to collect
5 per cent, of the gross receipts of *he
Joel Hurt lines. This is regarded ae the 1
most important move yet in the great
street railway fight.
CALLED I\ THE BUTTONS.
Col, Obear Preparing a List of Line
Oflieei'N to Show Rank.
Atlanta, Aug. 22.—A recent order of the
adjutant general requires the captains of
each company to collect and return the
United States buttons, with which the
present militia uniforms were furnished
when issued. The regulation now Is that
militia buttons must bear the state coal
of arms, and such buttons were recently
provided for each regiment.
The state has an opportunity to sell
these United States buttons, if imme
diate delivery is made, and the order for
their return will not inconvenience the
military. They are directed to be ex
pressed to “Col. William G. Obear, in
spector genera), Atlanta, Ga.,” collect,
and an invoice of the number sent en
closed .
Bince the re-organization of the militia
In February, a misunderstanding has
arisen as to who is the ranking officer.
Inspector General Obear is preparing a
list of militia officers, giving iheir relative
rank. The completion of this will dispose
of the misunders and ng This is for lino
officers only, as the relative rank of field
officers was given out -ome time ago
and is known. It is very necessary that
the rank cf officers be known as, if it is
pot. troulle may arise when several
companies are togethir
The ranking ffi< ers for the state are:
Capt. Pharr of thp Way cross Rifles, rank
ing captain; Charles Henry cf the Ifib

INCREASE IS fl 10,000,000.
Greatest in Property Values Report
ed in Many Year*,
Atlanta, Aug. 22 —The total increase in
the tax returns of Georgia so far receiv
ed. Including the state assessment of the
railroads, amounts to $19,0f.0,000, the great
est increase “that has been reported In
property values in many years.
Five counties are yet to send in their
digests, and an increase of several hun
dred thousand dollars is expected from
them. If the assessment on the Savannah,
Florida and Western and the debentures
of thf> Atlanta and West Toint Railroad
held by the Georgia Railroad, can be
maintained, it is believed by Controller
General Wright that the increase will
amount to $21,000,000. The assessment on
the Savannah. Florida and Western is
9757,148, and that on the Atlanta and West
Point debentures is $388,900, which will in
crease the returns over $1,000,000.
The tax rate for the next year cannot
be determined until arbitrators, Hons.
Pop© Brown and Pope Harrow, settle the
differences between the state and the
Plant System. The counties not ye* heard
from are Bartow’, Llberiy, Lee, Dooley
and Telfair.

Mr. Hanley: *
Dear SJr—l was told by my doctor last
March that, after an examination, that
I was far gone with consumption, and he
told me he had very little hopes for me.
1 was very sick; could hardly retain any
thing in my stomach, and was very nerv
ous and weak. I was induced to go down
to Suwanee Springs. 1 was not down
there a week when tho intense pain I had
In my right lung entirely left me. which
enabled me to lay on my back and right
side, which I had not been able to do in
months. I entirely got rid of a slow fe
ver I used to have, and after three weeks
1 was able to eat anything and every
i thing. And after seven weeks I can can
didly say that I felt as well as I ever
felt in my life. Since coming home 1 feel
just as well, and I can truthfully say that
Suwanee Springs has saved my life.
Y'ou may publish this, so that it may
benefit someone else afflicted as I was.
My friend* are many and will bear wlt
' neVs with me, how I was before I went to
I Suwanee Springs and how I am at pro*,
