, ATLANTA’S NEW DEPOT BILL.
HOUSE PUTS IN ITS SPARE TIME
ON IT.
)l<'ra. Felder of Bibb and Slalon ol
Fulton Have Slinrp Debate Over
Former'* Move to Sidetrack tbe
Measure—Eggleston Take* Porter
King's Seat—Motion in Senate to
Reconsider Wright Dispensary
Hill Fails—Toon* of 700 Inhabi
tants Sot Included in Its Provi
sion*.
Atlanta. Nov. 21.—Thomas Egleston.
the newly elected member of the House
from Fulton county, was sworn in this
morning, the oath being administered
by Justice William A. Little of the
Supreme Court. Mr. Egleston was
warmly congratulated by many of the
members. He took the seat formerly
occupied by Hon. Porter King.
The greater part of the ssesion of
the House was taken up with a discus
sion of the depot bill. This is the sub
ject the House always brings up in
some sort of shape whenever things
get dull.
Several days ago Mr. Felder of Bibb
introduced a resolution declaring that
the lessees of the Western and Atlan
tic Railroad were violating the terms
of the lease by allowing the Atlanta
depot to deteriorate and get into the
disgraceful condition in which it is
now. The resolution called upon the
Governor to compel the lessees to com
ply with the terms of the lease.
It was reported at the time that the
object of the resolution was to side
track the bill, providing for the build
ing of anew depot on the state's prop
erty. The resolution was tabled by the
Western and Atlantic committee, to
which is was referred and the depot
bill was reported favorably.
—Tfits~mOTntnr~MT: Felder nttrved that
hjs resolution be withdrawn from the
Western and Atlantic committee and re
ferred to the special Judiciary commit
tee. Mr. Felder made a lengthy
speech, criticising the committee for
side-tracking his resolution. Mr. John
son of Bartow offered a substitute res
olution, calling on the committee to re
port on the Felder resolution by Mon
day. This resolution was adopted af
ter a warm debate. During the debate
there were several warm passages be
tween Mr. Slaton of Fulton and Mr.
Felder.
“I want to tell my friend from Bibb
that If he defeats the depot bill every
bill he introduces cannot hurt the rail
roads as much as he will hurt the
state," said Mr. Slaton.
Mr. Felder: “Do you think the reso
lution of mine is intended to defeat the
depot bill?”
Mr. Slaton: "Yes. anything that
comes from my friend -from Bibb is
so intended.”
Mr. Felder: “I would like to know
who is filibustering it.”
Mr. Slaton: “Who introduced the res
olution? Who brought the bill up?
Whenever my friend from Bibb brings
anything up about depot, he always
gets tired out.”
Mr. Slaton admitted that the West
ern and Atlantic Railway should put
the depot in good condition, but only
in condition good enough for its own
uses.
Mr. Toomer of Ware contended as a
friend of the depot measure, and as a
member of the Western and Alabama
Railroad committee. 'that nothing
which occurred in the committee room
should be discussed in the House. He
said the committee had been done an
injustice by Mr. Felder, of Bibb. The
committee will report on Mr. Felder's
resolution Monday, and the indications
ore that the report will be unfavora
ble.
The following bills were passed by
the House.
By Mr. Howell of Merriwether—A
bill to prevent anyone from being lia
ble in damage who levies or causes to
be levied any execution or other pro
cess from any court in this state upon
property not belonging to defendant in
execution, unless it shall appear that
said levy was made without probable
cause.
By Mr. Slaton of Fulton—A bill to
provide for practice in claim casec.
By Mr. Burnett of Clarke—A resolu
tion authorizing the attox-ney general
to warve the state's lien funds in hands
of the receiver of the Northeastern
Railway as against employes of the
road, and to agree to the payment
to the employes of the road an amount
aggregating $1,720.50.
Senate Did Not Reconsider.
A hard fight was made in the Sen
ate to-day to reconsider the action of
that body in passing the Wright dis
pensary bill, but the effort was defeat
ed by a vote of 22 to 16.
The motion to reconsider was made
by Mr. Boynton of the Ninth, who
said his object was not to cause the
defeat of the bill or any material
change in it. His only desire, he stat
ed, was to amend the measure so that
it would include towns of under 700
inhabitants. The bill as it was pass
ed excludes from the operations of the
law some of the best towxxs In the state,
among them some having 600 and 700
inhabitants, according to the last cen
sus. He claimed these towns will have
all the evil effects of dispensaries es
tablished in nearby counties, but would
get none of the revenue. Mr. Bell
and Mr. Holder made strong speeches
against reconsideration and as the re
sult showed carried the day. Mr. Hen
don tried to bring about reconsidera
tion, and threatened if it was not car
ried to defeat the bill. As soon as
the motion was declared to be lost the
bill, with the Senate amendment, was
transmitted to the House.
A resolution was passed inviting Sen
ator Hiram P. Bell to address the Gen
eral Assembly on an evening to be
chosen by himself.
Among the new bills Introduced In
the Senate were those by Mr. Hopps,
to fix the liquor license In Wayne coun
ty, and by Mr. Johnson to fix the
amount of the liquor license In Cof
fee county.

Rumor In Montgomery to That Ef
fect Regarding Hr. D. F. Jack.

hope that the report may be without
foundation.
