2 , 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 —Tfits~mOTntnr~MT: Felder nttrved that hjs resolution be withdrawn from the Western and Atlantic committee and re ferred to the special Judiciary commit tee.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. DILLS SIGNED BY GOVERNOR. Expert Acconntants May Be Employ ed by County Authorities.
