THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN ANT) NEATS. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1912. ITALIAN GANG SLEW GIRL FOR REVENGE IS NEW POLICE THEORY GEORGETOWN, CONN.. Nov. 11. That the young woman whose bo Iv tv'as found early Saturday morning in the mill pond near here was murdered for revenge by a gang of Italians and that the murder was committed at tons distance from the scene where the : corpse was found and brought to the , scene in a wagon, was clearly estab i fished by tin state police today. I Little progress has been made toward positive identification of the body. The 1 Initials, “G. C.,” embroidered on cloth ' wrapped around the body and the gold s ring which the woman wore furnish practically the only clews to her Iden . tity. The theory that the woman was killed 1 as an informer in the local liquor raids ■ of a week ago i« believed to have t. on piactically abandoned and Proseeutot Bars, of Danbury, says that no woman gate any evidence.

James Conn Shows How Bore 2 3-4 Miles Long Would Remedy Traffic Jam. i ' “Atlanta will’haw- a subway car sys -1 tern from north to south w ithin a fe .v years. The main thoroughfares are * becoming so congested with traffic that ' an underground system will be impera tive in the course of time.” That is the opinion of flames C. Conn, ! of Conn <S- Fitzpatrick. engineers, in the , Empire building Mr. Conn was t.is -1 cussing Atlanta traffic conditions and i the need of a remedy. He polntd from his window, through the cloud of I smoke, to the scene in Peachtree street . where street cars, motors, trucks and i wagons st uggled for the right of way. tviill. men and women stood on the 1 sidewalks watching for a chance to cross the street In safety. other engineers and architects agree i with Mr. Conn that ultimately the sur face ears must be removed from ’ Pi.ohtiei and Whitehall streets with in the rapidly extending business dls , trict, ot else all other traffic must be ousted from those streets. Atlanta i» i ■ullaily constructed, geographically. I The wqole city is built upon this back ■one called Peachtree street, the an cient ridge along which a country road once ran. This is the spine of Atlan ta. and the other streets are merely the ribs extending from it. There are other north and south streets which are tak ing up some of the traffic—Forsyth, Broad. Pryor and Ivy—but none of these extends for any considerable dis tance and none can take the place of Peachtree street and its sister beyond the tracks—Whitehall. Would Use Surface Cars. “There is nothing except the cost in the way of a subway system,'' said Mr. Conn, running his pencil point down a wall mail of '-he streets. “It might start lute, at Peachtree and Tenth streets, and end at the Junction of Whitehall and Forsyth streets. That's about 2 3-4 miles. It could come down under Peachtree*or It might take a straight line under the buildings, avoiding the curves and angles of the street. It could cross the railway tracks above the trains and below the viaduct floors, becoming really an elevated' at this point. "It probably would be feasible to use sui face cars for the subway traffic, letting them drop down a grade into the tunnel uii up another grade to emerge at the other end, this permit ting ears to operate on the surface In the residence districts and underground through the congested portion of the city and relieving passengers of having to transfer. That problem could easily be worked out by engineers.” The trolley company has a perpetual franchise, it is held, over Peachtree and Whitehall streets, and under exist ing laws probably could not be forced to place i|s tracks underground, so long as this action would be considered con fiscatory of property or profits. Rut engineers believe that In the course of time the trolley company will find Its traffic so great that it will be impossi ble to operate surface cars enough to handle It, and then an underground system will I 9 adopted as an economi cal necessity.

Old Plant Will Be Long, Bitter Fight. That the fight against the detraction of the old city crematory will be long drawn out and bitterly waged was In dicated today when the hearing before Judge Pjpdleton of E. F. Jackson’s ap plication for injunction against the pro posed tearing down of the garbage plant was postponed until noon. The attitude of counsel in asking for a continuance led to the belief that the suit will not end with a decision of the lower court, but that the fight will be carried to the supreme court. Further legal complications were made likely when it was announced .that the board of health, through Presi dent W. L. Gilbert, is threatened with mandamus proceedings to restore the plant to the sanitary department, while Alderman Van Dyke has declared that he favors the appointment o||a com mission of experts to determine wheth er the present plant can be operated in safety with new guy wires to keep the stack in place. Despite the injunction proceeding.-, the Destructor Company of New York, which has the conti act for the new plant, planned today to begin -grading in order that the work might start as soon as possible after the legal blocks are withdrawn. City Attorney Mayson was ready to proceed with the hearing today. He Indicated that the court would firs', have to go into te advisability of tear ing down te stack before it took up the legal phases of the contract.
