6 PLAN FOR POLICE SOB-STATIONS APPROVED Board Also Gives Its 0. K. to the Budget Made Up for Next Year’s Expenses. The point' commission last night : unanimously approved the plan to es tablish two police substations in At lanta as a means of materially increas ; ing the efficiency of the force. The commission approved the budget •>1 next year’s expenses for the depart ment. as prepared by Chief Beavers, and will urge the finance committee of council to provide an appropriation tn the January apportionment sufficient for the two substations and the other necessary items. The commissioners are enthusiastic over the substation idea, and say they believe the finance committee, realizing the urgent need, will supply the re- 1 uufred funds. If the finance’ committee acts favor ably, the two stations will be estab lished at once, as Chief Beavers and the commissioners feel that the great and rapid growth of the city has ren dered them a crying need. It is prob able that one of the new stations will be situated in lower Marietta street and the other In Peters street. The total amount asked by the police department for the new year is $357,- n OO. The commission also approved the ordinance fixing the salary of all flrst year policemen at $75 per month, and providing that supernumeraries shall receive the pay of the man in whose place they serve, whether he is drawing $75 or S9O.

It was characteristic of Carnegie to reineinbei the exact amount raised at Roosevelt's lecture, given for the benefit of the fund a year ago.

The Carnegie donation brings the funds of the association up to $20,000. making it possible to take over the Wren’s Nest on January 1. Members of the Harris family agreed to sell the estate, comprising some three acres, for $25,000, but later credited the associa tion witj) $5,000. leaving but $20,000 to be subscribed.

TURNER ED KEEP IIP LIGHT BATTLE Denounces Council Committee Action as Attempt to Rail road Electric Contract. "Tlie action of the electric committee of council in rescinding its former ac tion and finally conceding to all Ihe de mands of the Georgia Railway . and Power Company stacks up as a direct attempt to railroad through the city’s lighting contract before the new admin nstration assumes control.” This declaration was made today by City Electrician Turner following the committee’s action of yesterday in re pudiating his recommendations for the 1913 lighting contract. He declared the committee flopped completely on the stand taken two months ago, and ac ceded to every demand of Preston S. Arkwright, president of the power com pany. "In the first place,” continued Tur ner, “this council hasn't tlie legal right to make the fighting contract for 1913. which does not become effective until April 1. In ease council, the alder manic board and the major approve that thing sanctioned by the committee yesterday, I win carry the fight into the new council after January 1 and have the contract canceled." Accorditig to Turner, the objection able features of the contract approved bj the committee are tlie phrases which affect tile "IV hite Way” and the pro posed flaming are lights. In the first place," said Turner, "the cit.v owns the White Way, and the coun cil certainly is justified in reserving the to take it over at any time deemed proper. The committee, despite this fact, proposes to tie the cup up to a term contract for current for the White Way. "The 7 1-2-ampere arc is a joke. 1 will refuse to locate a single one of them il *he city sticks to its present at titude. Tlie 10-ampere arcs I recom mended do not burn a bit more cur rent and are three times as efficient.” Turner said that he would take the matter up before council when the com mittee’s action comes up for ratifica tion on Monday and fight it. In case the council approves the contract, hi will take his case to tlie mayor, FARRAGUT’S PILOT AT NEW ORLEANS IS DEAD NEl\ ORLEANS, LA..
