Aldermen Amend Or
dinance and Send
It Back.
VOTE ONE PER CENT
INSTEAD OF HALF
Council Has Opportunity to
Reconsider and Inves
tigate Deeply.
The Southern Bell Telephone Compa.
ny will not get a SS-year franchise,
worth hundreds of thousands of dol
lars, for nothing.
The aldermanlc board Thursday aft
ernoon voted In favor of levying a 1 per
cent tax on the gross receipts of the
company for the life of the franchise,
thus doubling the amount that was to
have been paid for the first ten years.
What Is better still for the people In
the light against the Bell company
franchise Is that the franchise must
now go back to council In Its amended
form, and that body can now take the
matter up again and amend It. ao that
the city will get fair compensation for
the valuable grants proposed In the
franchise ordinance. .
None of the statements made by The
Georgian were successfully controvert
ed at the meeting of the board, but
It developed that The Georgian had
been over-fair and had given the Bell
company quite the better of the figures,
What Iflguree 8how.
The Georgian had contended that the
gross receipts, under the ordinance,
would bo 1400,000, and the city’s per
centage would be $2,000. The figures
presented by the Bell company’s attor.
ney showed that tho amount was less
Jafft year.
The Georgian had estimated that
from tills $2,000 would be deducted, ac
cording to. the provisions of tho ordi
nance, $2,600, which would give the
city a minus quantity of $600.
According to the figures presented by
the Bell company's attorney, the de
ductions from the $2,000 will bo $$,-
4U.85, leaving the city $1,421.86 less
than nothing.
For the granting of a 33-year fran
chise to the Southern Bell It was pro
posed that the city should receive
minus quantity of more than $1,000.
"I don’t think," stated Alderman
Key before the board, "that there was
ever an ordinance of this Importance
less understood .and more mlsundcr
‘ stood. This Is actually the most rldlcu.
lous, the most absurd proposition thai
any Intelligent body of men has ever
been asked to swallow, as far as my
knowledge and memory goes.”
Grant Would Be Illegal.
Alderman Key raised the point that
It the company's contention that It has
a franchlso that lasts until 1828 Is cor
rect. then the granting of the franchise
at this time Is Illegal, os tho charter
expressly stipulates that no franchise
can be extended beyond Its time limit,
except twelve months before It would
expire.
Assistant City Attorney Hill held
that If the city’s attorney’s opinion
Is correct, that this Is true and the
ordinance granting the franchise is Il
legal.
Alderman Qullllnn sought to refute
the charge that the ordinance had not
been fully considered, despite the state
ments of several members of the com
mittee that they wanted it recom
mitted In order that It might be again
Investigated and despite the fart that
only two members were present at the
meeting when It was adopted.
Alderman Peters, it Is Judged from
hls remarks, when the question of the
legality of the franchise was mentioned,
hud never considered this feature.
Councilman Styron and Councilman
Pomeroy, two members of the commit
tee. have stated In published Inter
views that they wanted it back for full
er Investigation. Councilman Martin,
another member of the committee,
slated that he did not know other
cities were getting more when he voted
for the franchise ordinance.
Councilman Hancock, another mem
ber of tho committee, stated that he
did not know the deductions were gib
Ing to cut the percentage down to noth,
Ing.
The ordinance has never been pre.
sented to Aldermah Beutell, another
member of the committee.

ON THIRD BONOS
Macon, Ga., Aug. 23.—At the meet
ing of the directors of the Central of
Georgia railroad, held In the office of
President J. F. Hanson hero this morn
ing, a dividend of 6 per cent was de
dared on the flrat Income bonds of the
company; a dividend of 3.723 per cent
on second Income bonds, and nothing
on the third Income bonds.
The third income bonds was what
caused the recent meeting to be held
In New York.
It was found that the earnings of tha
road would not allow a dividend on the
third Income bonds.
There are $4,000,000 of the third In
come bonds of the Central of Georgia
road.
This is one of the most Important
meetings tho directors of the road have
held In some time.
The meeting was attended' by J. F.
Hanson, A. R. Lawton, W. A. Wlnburn.
W. C. Bradley, N. P. Harold, Joseph
Hull, S. R. Juques and George B. Mc
Cormick.
The annual reports were not read at
the meeting. No other business was ta
ken up by the directors today.
CURTIS WOULD LIKE
TO TAKE THE TRIP
That Alderman Curtis Is In no wise
bashful was demonstrated at the meet
ing of the aldermanlc board Thursday
afternoon. In fact, the alderman ad
mitted It hlnytelf and stated that he
wished to disbuse tho minds of the al
dermen of any Idea to the contrary.
The board was discussing a motion
of Alderman Peters, that the sum ap-
mlttee therefore, only two—Alderman
Qullllan and Councilman Terrell—
could possibly have fully Inveetlgated
the ordinance.
Alderman Peters pointed out the fact
that the Southern Bell has established
headquarters hero and Is paying about
$40,000 a month salaries. It was upon
hls motion that the percentage tax was
raised.
Of this committee of eight that, ac
cording to Alderman Qullllnn, fully In
vestigated the matter, the three mem
bers who are on tho-aldermanlc board
—he Is one—voted to double the tax for
the first ten years.
"If the first tax was fair." stated a
member of council, "then the aldermen
who said to voted for something that
was very unfair when they voted to
double It"
On the motion to make the tax 1 per
c*nt,for the life of the franchise, all
voted favorably except Alderman Key,
who said he was In fa-
mors.
vor fit making It
An amendment by Alderman Key to
2J * ff cct that the franchise tax be not
uedueted from the percentage tax was
City Would Get 1578.15,
According to the figures presented
“7 the attorney for the Southern Bell,
Me estimated receipts of the company
the expenses of four of the city
to the municipal convention at James
town be cut from $300 to $200.
"I want It dlsllnetw understood that
I am not bashful,” sftoke up Alderman
Curtis. ”1 want to go to that'meetlng
myself, Mr. Chairman, and I move that
Alderman Curtis be elected to go to the
convention at Jamestown."
‘‘I suggest," said Alderman Key.
"that the mayor’s vacation be extended
so that he can watch Atlanta play
baseball awhile longer, and that Aider-
man Curtis bo allowed to go In hls
place.”
“That would be unfair to the mayor,'
suggested another member of the
board.
The motion of Alderman Peters was
carried and Alderman Curtis then
stated he would withdraw hls motion
although he still wished to attend the
convention.
Charged With Steal-
Man Tries
mg,
Suicide.
SENT TO GRADY;
HE WILL RECOVER
Whitehall Street Store the
Sqpne of Dramatic At
tempt at Suicide.
Rather than submit to arrest on a
charge of shoplifting, and while a
crowd of horrified women looked on,
an unknown man, about 60 yfars of
age, slashed hls throat with a razor
In Kress' ten-cent store. In Whitehall
street, about 1; 80 o’clock Friday after
noon.
Now he Is In the Grady Hospital and
the surgeons bellev% be Is not fatally
Injured.
No more dramatic attempt at suicide
has ever been made In Atlanta. The
man had been charged with stealing.
An employee of the store sought to de.
tain him as he was about to leave tho
store. Women shoppers had their at
tention attracted, and turned to see the
man lying In a pool of blood on tho
floor.
Crowds gathered at o.ice, and the
doors to the store were shut. Many
women shoppers were Inside. White
hall street was almost blocked.
The man had been In the store, so
the manager says, several times and
hail 'been stealing. He lint! made a
round of the counters, and ns he was
nli'-m In leave he was accosted by a
young man, an-"empIoyeo of the store,
and requested to return the things he
was’ said to have stolen.
"He refused to do this,” says Man
ager Hurlburt, "and, drawing a razor,
attempted to cut the young man. The
young man seised him and Ifiey began
to struggle, and the man charged with
theft fell to the floor. Beveafi custom
ers went to our man's assistance and
helped to hold tho struggling man. Be
fore an officer arrived he cut hla throat
while on the floor.”
Officer Is Called.
Officer 8. J. Coogler was approached
at hls station at Whitehall and Alaba
ma streets and asked to come to the
store, as a man had stolen some goods
and was trying to hurt people in the
store. When the officer reached the
scene, the man was In a pool of blood
and was trying to again slash hls
throat.
"I’ll kill myself," he repeated several
times, but Officer Coogler seized the
razor blade in hls nand and with a
wrench, snapped It from the handle.
An ambulance was summoned and the
bleeding man was sent to the Grady
hospital.
As soon as the man was removed,
Manager Hurlburt had the doors of the
store closed and refused admittance to
any- one.
Afterward the manager told of the
detection of the man and the struggle
on the floor within sight of crowded
Whitehall street.
1 PER CENT. ENOUGH FOR ATLAN
TA; RICHMOND AND NEW OR
LEANS GET 3 PER CENT. '
The Aldermanic Board on Thursday amended the Bell Company’s fran
chise ordinance so as to give it a 33-year franchise for 1 per cent of its annual
gross income, minus what it now pays Atlanta in other ways.
Will the Aldermanic Board explain to the citizens of Atlanta why the Bell
Company should have the same rights in Atlanta for 1 per cent that It pays other
cities three times as much for, and then get back practically three-fourths of the
1 per cent in deductions, according to the Bell Company’s own figures? •
Mayor Pro Tern Quillian stated to the Board of Aldermen: “I have come
to the conclusion that this (1-2 of 1 per cent for 10 years and 1 per cent for 23
years) is a fair basis on which to trade.”
Will he tell us whether he meant fair for the Bell Company, or the city of
Atlanta? >

for next year will be $400,000, and the
percentage will be $4,000.
From this $4,000 must be deducted
$$,421.85—the attorney’s own figures—
leaving for the city $678.16.
As was pointed out by Aldsrman
Key. even this small amount can be
wiped out by the company returning
the franchise at on Increased value and
the physical properties at a proportion-
ate decreased value, thus making the
amount to be deducted greater.
The attorney for the Southern Bell
spoke of a vast amount of free serv
ice. but did not give specifications.
It Is believed that council will non
concur In the amendment, rescind Its
action, and refuse to adopt the ordinance
unlesa something more substantial Is
gained for the city.
"I shut the doors,” said Manager
irlburt, "to keep out curiosity seekers.
As soon as the floor had been washed

That it Is not hls Intention to take
onyy legal steps relative to hls suspen
sion from the office of railroad com
missioner, ,le stated by Commissioner
Joseph M. Brown.
Mr. Brown will quietly yield up hls
place to hls successor, S. Guyton Mc
Lendon, and wait to bring hls case to
the only bar left him—the general as
sembly of 1808.
‘While Mr. Brown will not attempt to
perform any of the functions of the of
fice, he goes out under protest that hls
removal was an act "to gratify the
whim and vent the spleen" of the gov
ernor toward him.
Mr. Brown and Mr. McLendon met In
the office of the railroad commission
Friday morning, and the meeting was
cordial and without embarrassment
apparently to either. Commissioner
McLendon arrived first, and read some
private mall and the morning papers.
Mr. Brown came in about 11 o'clock,
and after greetings, the two fell Into a
social chat that continued for more
than an hour. The matter of the sus
pension of the one and the appoint
ment of the other was not mentioned
during the talk.
Mr. Brown will probably remove hls

office Saturday. Whether or not he
will continue to come to the office dally

Durham, N. C„ Aug. 2*.—Two partlen
of revenue officers, while attempting to
destroy a blockade still near Chapel
Hill at an early hour this morning,
flrod on each other, and every man,
with one exception. In the two parties
was shot down. The still was located
on Morgan’s creek In a wild section of
Orange county, and had been recently
reported to the Greensboro and Raleigh
officers.
Officers Rlggsbee and Henry, from
Greensboro, reached the scene of the
still at a late hour last night and laid In
waiting. .Shortly afterward Revenue
Officers Jordan and Banks, from
Raleigh, and Addlcks, from Salis
bury, also were on hand. When the
men In hiding saw tham approaching
they wero unaware that they tvero of
ficers and rushed forward, demanding
them to hold up their hands. This com
mand they refused to obey, and bullets
were passed thick and feat Officer
Jordan was wounded twice, receiving
a ahot In the side and one In tho leg.
Officer Banks was possibly tho most
seriously wounded, receiving n shot In
tha leg that shattered the bone. Tho
other officers, Rlggsbee and Henry,
sustained slight Injuries from flesh
wounds. The parties were transferred
to their homes this morning. It was tho
opinion of physicians that Officer

AID FOR EJECTED FAMIL Y
OFFERED THROUGH GEORGIAN;
LANIER IS IN HOSPITAL
An Investigation to see whether the
North Georgia Electric Company, which
Is to furnish competition with the Geor
gia Railway and Electric Company In
the sale of electric power. Is really
carrying on the work of bringing Its
cables Into Atlanta Is called for In a
resolution by Councilman Martin, Intro
duced at the called meeting of council
Friday morning.
Tho' officials of tha company state
that they are doing all In their power
to oomplete the work and expect to
havo an electric current coming Into
Atlanta within twelve months. Coun
cilman Martin asks that the committee
on electric lights, telsphones and tele
graphs and the city engineer look Into
the matter.
"I want to protect the interests of
the city," said Councilman Martin. ’’We
should find out whether the conduits
and manholes which are being con
structed will be of use. I understand
that the manholes are unusually large
and we should find out whether they
take up too much space In the streets."
The conduits are being laid by the
Atlanta telephone company and the
power company Jointly. The resolution
also ssks that It be ascertained whether
the companies have accepted the fran
chise which was granted on June 28,
with a limit of M days In which tho
board of directors of the two companies
should accept 1L
Determined to secure redresfi for the
suffering she endured and for the man
ner In which her sick husband was
treated, Mrs. A. L. Lanier, whose
household goods were thrown out
Thursday to be drenched In a rain,
made arrangements Friday to consult
with attorneys for the purpose of
bringing suit to recover damages.
"The bailiff never served me with
any paper whatever,” said Mrs. Lanier
Friday morning. "Ho Just proceeded to
throw out my things and gave me no
satisfaction. I know nothing about
business or about law, but I thought he
ought to have some legal excuse for
the outrageous treatment I received.
"He even threw my husband's medi
cine Into the street and broke the bot
tles, and he threw a trunk down on my
glasses and I am almost helpless with
out them. It was the only pair I had
and I don't know what I will do until I
get another pair."
Mr. Lanier, who was taken to the
Presbyterian Hospital. Is In about the
aame condition, and at present the phy.
slclons are unable to say when he ran
be moved to the country, where Mrs.
Lanier will take him. ‘
"It seems.” she said, “that ever since
we have been here we have been unfor
tunate. My husband was cheated out
of money he earned by faking a paint
ing contract Then came hla sickness,
and before that I was sick. We have
had nothing but trouble. I took In two
boarders while he was III la order to
make some money, and one week I paid
out 826 for a trained nurse. I kept
my head above water, without assist
ance. until that bailiff threw out my
furniture In the rain and ruined It."
When the story of Mrs. Lanier's
treatment which appeared In The
Georgian, was read, several persons
called up on the 'phone and aubacrlbed
money to help her. Within two hours
after the paper was on the street $12.76
had been sent to The Georgian office.
A. C. Lumpkin, of 108 Peachtree
atreet, called up The Georgian by
'phone Thursday afternoon.
"I'll be one of ten men to glvo $6
each to that poor family,” he said.
"Send for It when you want It."
A manufacturer, who asked that hls
name not be used, sent $6 to The Geor
gian to be turned over to tho proper
parties. Several small contributions
were received, and many persona In
quired about the condition of the La
niers. The Associated Charltlea will
receive the fund and apply It entirely
to the old of Mr. and Mrs. Lanier.
Mrs. Lanier will probably go to tho
country Saturday, and will move her
husband as soon as he Is able.
