Senate Likely to
Repeal C-8. Act
The Senate Tuesday morning dis
agreed with the committee’s unfavor
able report on the bill to repeal the
Cincinnati-Southern ~act, and the
measure was read for the second time.
This indicated that it would be read
for the third time and likely passed
Wednesday.
The Cincinnati-Southern act gives
the railroad of that name certain
right-of-way privileges over the
Western and Atlantic, the State road,
in Chattanooga, and now is consid
ered detrimental to the State road. It
was entered into in 1878, when it was |
considered helpful to the State. It is
charged now that the Cincinnati-
Southern has not kept its end of the
pact, and the effort to repeal the con
tract has caused a rather warm fight
throughout this session of the Legis
lature.

circumstances. Although the .names
of three men were announced as can
didates for the Legislature, & number
of nthers are reported to have quali
fied and are keeping their names from
the public, through consent of the

these “dark horse” candidates expect

be beyond the voters, but it was hint

thing to do with the situation,

the Legislature are L. J. Steele, Mayor
of Decatur, and against the merger;
J. L. Chubb, against, and Paul Lind

One More Barbecue
For City Offici

City officials are going to have at
least one more barbecue this summer.
It will be in celebration of the com-
Dpletion of two new buildings at the
Battle Hill Tuberculosis Sanitarium,
one being a recreation hall and the
other a special ward for advanced
negro cases.
According to the tentative plans,
Steve R. Johnston, who, as a member
of Counell, introduced the original
resolution, for the establishment of the
hospital, will deliver an address on
the progress of the fight in Atlanta
against tuberculosis,
Mr. Johnston's first efforts met
with little response, even from his
colleagues. Now few city institutions
receive more general cu-opomti(m,\

NEW YORK, Aug. 15.—~Hope that
the crest of the infantile paralysis
epidemic had been reached was de
stroyed today by a large increase in
the number of new cases and deaths.
For the 24 hours ending at 10 a. m.
the health department reported 163
new cases and 39 deaths, an increase
of 68 and 8, respectively.
The total cases to date is 6,532,
while 1,463 have died from the dis
ease. The experts watching the
course of the disease believe that only
the cold weather of the fall can check
the epidemic. That the number of
cases may reach 11,000 is generally
believed by physiclans
Several cases among the adults
have resulted fatally. It is apparent
from observation of the {n‘esent
plague that any adult who falls vic
tim has a very slight chance of recov
ery.
Criticism of the health department
is steadily increasing. Numerous
complaints have been made of dead
animals being allowed to lie for sev
eral days in the streets.

‘Get Action’
Solicitor Eb T. Williams Tuesday
gave out a strong statement in refu
tation of the reported charges by
Representative Peacoeck, of Dougherty

thorities in the matter of his negro
chauffeur, Will Brown, who had been
arrested in Savannah and brought
back here at the instigation of Mr.
Peacock for the robbery of his auto
mobile.
“Mr. Peacock simply was talking
without knowing what he was talking
about, and, in doing so, did a great
injustice to both the offices of the So
licitor and the Sheriff,” said Solicitor
Williams. 'The facts are these: Mr.
Peacock saw me last Friday at noou,
and informed me that the chauffeur
wished to plead gullty, Saturday
morning at 9:30 o'clock 1 had the ne
gro brought before Judge Hill, yhere
he pleaded guilty, and was given the
limit—twelve months. The negro vas

2t the time Mr., Peacock was making
his complaint of lack of action, He
simply failed to acquaint hin:self with
the facts vefore letting lose his atiack

“As to the refund of the S3O that
Mr. Peacock paid to have the negro
‘brought here from Savannah, 1 in
