RUDENESS COSTS:
RAILROAD $4,8D0
Woman Given Damages for
Failure of Flagman to Assist
Her From Train.
Lack of gallantry on tile part of a
Georgia railroad flagman a year ago
cost that company $4,800 today. Mrs.
Katie Thomas, of Hardage Crossing,
left first division of superior court this
morning with a check for the sum
forced on her by the company’s attor
neys because a flagman failed to as
sist her from the rear platform of a
train in the Union station.
Because the flagman failed to give
her a hand when she came down the
steps of the rear coach of the “Buck
head accommodation” on Septetnber
21, 1911, Mrs. Thomas fell and was se
verely injured. She brought suit for
$30,000 damages, and the company's at
torneys, fearful of the judgment of a
jury, settled the case out of court.
According to a peculiar construction
of Georgia law, railroad employees are,
required to assist passengers from
trains if assistance is needed, and the
courts have held time and time again
that recovery can be made for failure
to observe this, rule.
Mrs. Thomas maintained that the
flagman was very attentive to the wom
en who preceded her in alighting from
the coach, and even went out of his
way to swing a little girl off the plat
form just ahead of her. As she came
down the steps, she asserted, he delib
erately turned his baek and "ruthlessly
left her without assistance."
She told the court that she was re
covering from a severe illness when the
incident occurred, and she was unable
to support herself.

INOODINARD’S AND
CHAMBERS' MEN
IN OPEN W
Council Is Rent by Factional
Politics—No Secret Made of
Bitter Fight.
Members of council freely admitted
today a long drawn tight between the
Woodward and Chambers factions is
Inevitable. From offering olive branches
and denying that any fight was Intend
ed, the members of council now are
playing factional politics in the open.
The Chambers faction is the aggres
sor, while the Woodward faction is. as
yet, on the defensive.
The Chambers faction all but suc
ceeded in working a neat trick at the
meeting of council yesterday. They
wanted to take from the mayor the
right to appoint the custodian of the
building, because Joseph Shearer, the
present custodian, was active for Cham
bers in the mayoralty contest, and it Is
generally expected Woodward will drop
him from the city pay roll when he goes
into office.
Goes Through by One Vote.
The buildings and grounds commit
tee, headed by Aiderman James W.
Maddox, and made up of Chambers men,
offered an ordinance making the custo
dian elective by council instead of by
the buildings and grounds committee.
The mayor appoints the committee, and
therefore controls the election of the
custodian.
The ordinance passed without any
one of the opposition knowing what had
happened. The custodian was to be
elected the first Monday in December,
for a term of two years, at a salary of
$1,500 a year.
Then Mayor Pro Tern. Candler ruled
that the ordinance would have to be
voted on separately by council and the
aldermantc board, because it looked to
the appropriation of money.
A new vote was taken. Council
adopted the measure by the slight ma
jority of 12 to 11.
It is said the Woodward faction has a
majority against the measure in the al
dermanic board.
No “aye and nay” vote was taken,
and it was impossible to get an accu
rate list of the line-up of council.
Locker Club Fight Resumed.
The charges that the fight over locker
club permits was inspired by politics
were reiterated at the meeting of coun-
I ell yesterday.
> Aiderman John E. McClelland de-
1 nounced the club of Aiderman J. B.
Everett, the Metropolitan, as an open
' barroom and a place for questionable
women to gather.
He declared that if council would re
refer the permit to tvte police commit
■ tee, he would prove his charges.
Aiderman Everett arose and declared
the charges to be false.
“Don’t slap me in the face, gentle
men,” he said. “Grant me the per
mit.”
“This man has no right to get up as
an aiderman and make a personal re
quest,” cried Alderman McClelland. “He
has sat here and voted against clubs
that are better than his.”
The Moose club permit was refused.
The Metropolitan, the Georgia Ath
letic, the Theatrical and the Terrace
clubs were referred back to the com
mittee for further investigation.
On its own initiative the committee
decided to investigate further the Press,
the Bees and the Centra! clubs.
Council voted $l5O for a complete
audit of all the clubs.
Urge Three Clubs Be Closed.
Permits were granted to the Atlanta
Athletic, the Transportation, the Pied
mont Driving. Capital City, Eagles,
Elks, University, Standard, M. & M„
Atlanta, T. M. A., Turn Verein, the
Owls and the Beavers.
The police committee recommended
that the Bees, the Georgia Athletic, the
Central and the Moose clubs be dosed.
The Bees and the Georgia Athletic
clubs supported Councilman Aldine
Chambers for mayor. Fighting to saves
these clubs, the Chambers faction has
complicated the whole situation.
Whether Mayor Winn Is back in his
office when the action of council grant
ing permits comes up for approval has
an important bearing on the situation.
It is expected that Mayor Winn would
approve the permits granted, but that
Alderman John S. Candler would veto
them for the same reason he vetoed
them before. The same charge that
none of them is complying with the
law was made by Aidermen Warren
and McClelland.

Governor Declines to Temper
Statement at Request of
Chiefs of Railroad Men.
Governor Brown today formally an
swered the communication of T. A.
Gregg, of the Order of Railway Con
ductors, and James Murdock, of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, in
which these gentlemen took the gov
ernor to task for his recent interview
on law and order in Georgia, and par
ticularly in connection with the recent
Georgia railroad strike.
In reply to their request for a fur
ther statement in the matter, possibly
explaining or qualifying his interview,
the governor said he could see no good
to come of that, as his first statement
was complete and there was nothing
either to add to it or take from it.
The go ernor said:
“The 1 ws are intended for equal
application to all citizens of what
ever rank within this state; and
the legal process which the state
prescribes for her citizens must be
the same in Its application to every
citizen. No person or class shall
adopt any proocess for redressing
grievances which the state herself
does not apply to all others.”
Presumably, this will close the inci
dent.

PEACHTREE LOT
Property Occupied by Daniel
Bros. Purchased by E. W.
Alfriend for $167,000.
Property at 45 Peachtree street, oc
cupied by Daniel Brothers, brought
$167,000 at a commissioner’s sale at
noon today before the court house door,
which is at the rate of $5,061 a front
foot. Forrest Adair, commissioner, sold
it. and E. W. Alfriend bought it. Mr.
Alfriend declares that he has made no
plans sot the property.
The lot has a two-story building on
it, and fronts 33 feet on Peachtree and
runs back 142 feet on one side and 128
feet on the other. The store rents for
$450 a month for the next two years,
and SSOO the third year, when the pres
ent lease expires. Active in the early
bidding were Edward Inman and John
W. Grant.
Mr. Adair knocked down the property
at 336-338-340 Marietta street to S. S.
Selig, Jr., for $13,900. Mr. Selig ex
pects eventually to erect a three-story
building on this, but has not made def
inite plans.
W. A. Fuller, acting as trustee for
the estate of E. S. Sims, sold property
in bulk at Brookwood, Buckhead and
Armour station to W. M. McKenzie for
$15,000. Others making sales at small
er figures were R. O. Cochran, A. J. &
H. F. West and James L. Logan, for
the E. Rivers Realty Company.
The acquisition of 45 Peachtree makes
Mr. Alfriend one of the largest central
property owners. Among hfs other
holdings are the Hunnicutt property, at
Baker and Peachtree; the Hugh T. In
man place, at Harris and Peachtree,
and a strip running through from
Peachtree to Ivy in the block between
Harris and Baker.
The property brought $3,139 less per
foot than the southeast corner of Au
burn avenue and Peachtree, which
Bryan M. Grant purchased some time
ngo. The Grant property brought SB,-
200.
Many Have Eye on
Postmaster’s Job
Postmaster Hugh L McKee, of the At
lanta postoffice, who is an old-line Re
publican, has been busy the past few
/lays—exceedingly busy—closing the main
door leading from the outer corridors into
his office.
That door, according to an unbiased by
stander, has been opened no less than
3,712 times In five days. The procedure
is the same In each instance. The knob
will turn slowly and cautiously, then the
door will swing ajar just an inch or two
Slowly the aperture widens and a head
peers around the corner—unless it sees
Postmaster McKee, enthroned behind hfs
high desk, directly facing the door. Then
the head disappears, while Postmaster
McKee wearily rises and closes the door
after the last man who has looked In to
see how he likes the postmaster's office.
"All of them are figuring on it,” Mr.
McKee said today, as a smile wanly
lighted his features. "Every howling Buil
Moose and rampant Democrat in Atlanta
has taken a peek in at that door dur
ing the past few days. And every one
of them. In his mind’s eye, has seen him
self sitting here directing the destinies of
the postofffee
“It's funny how these people are fooled.
Why, Taft is sure to win!”
He winced sharply, though, when at
that instant a well known negro Bull
Moose put his head inside the door and
took a long look at everything, directed a
broad grin at the postmaster, and disap
peared. The thing is somewhat getting
on Mr. McKee’s nerves
