FRUIT CARS ON THE WAY
TO RELIEVE THE GROWERS
Wednesday morning It looked
though the long-sought relief was In
sight for tho peach growers of north
Georgia. Secretary Walter Hawkins,
of the Georgia Peach Growers’ Asso
elation, statdil that probably forty or
flfty cars would be sent to the differ
ent points oh the Western and Atlantic
at once, and that the Armour Company
would be able to supply mors as they
wgre needed. .
Some have thought that the trouble
wss due to the fact that Armour hoe
an exclusive contract with the differ
ent railroads in Georgia whereby no
other refrigerator lines are allowed
to send their cars Into this section.
This, however, does not affect the sit
uation quite as much as might be ex
pected, from the fact that Armour owns
Tactically every car In the United
itates that would be available for han
dling fruit.
The real source of the trouble seems
to be that all the cars possible were
supplied to the growers of south Geor
gia to move the crop from that section - -- - - ... ,
and north Georgia’! crop followed so <ire mads to supply these. This

supply the demand. Practically no fruit
Is shipped to any point south of Phlla

to New York and beyond, so that It
takes more or less time to return the
empty cars from these potnti.

COUNCILMAN
4TH WARD
While riding the toboggan elide at
Ponce DeLeon Tuesday night with two
companions, auy Arthur Myers,
years old, of 180 Davie street, was
thrown from the topmost round of the
spiral and badly hurt
Myers and his* two friends entered
the car In the beet of spirits, Intent
upon enjoying to Its full the tasclnat
Ing swing, and Just after they reached
the top Myers, It le sold, stood up In
the car, neglecting the posted sign
warning against, that very thing. Hie
friends tried to persuade him to elt
down, but to no avail. Shortly after
the car waa turned loose to be carried
around with only Its own Impetus, It
made a sudden dip In the track and
then In the whirl of rounding the
curve young Myers lost his balance and
was thrown completely out of the car
and over the scaffolding, striking on a
pile of lumber which was Just below.
It was Impossible to stop the car, but
as toon' as It reached the bottom hie
comrades rushed to hts assistance and
found him lying unconscious on the
lumber. The Grady Hospital ambu
lance was hastily summoned and the
•oung man carried to that Institution,
lere the surgeons examined him oa re
ally and found that his right leg wo*
roiten above the knee and hie left leg
belohr.
No Internal Injuries.
Wednesday morning Myers was rest
ing easily and It was stated that aa
he had received no Internal Injuries he
would probably be able to be up with
in six weeks or so. While the shock
waa of course a severe one, hie many
friends will be glad to know that there
Is no serious danger, and that he will
irobably be as well as ever once the
■ones knit themselves together.
Though thousands of people have
ridden the toboggan slide every season
for several years, this Is the second ac
cident that hap been reported since
soon after It was first erected.
Myers waa employed by.the Southern
Bell Telephone Company, and waa ae-
companlad on his trip by Harvle T.
Tutwller, his cousin, and H. Moseley,
who are also employed by the telephone
company. He was: for a number of
years In the law office of Felder *
tountree, but has been in the auditing
department of the telephone company
for aoma tlma past.
He Is one of the beet known young
men In Atlanta, always notad for hie
daring and hit skill aa an sthlats.

Issues the following statement con
cerning the accident:
When Myers and hi* friend* en
tered the car, handed their tickets to
tbs conductor, Meyers turned to hla
friends on the rear seat with tha dec
laration that he had a funny story to.
tell. He waa warned then to keep his
seat, but Just before renchlng the sum
mit point, turned deliberately In hie
seat and stood up, aa tha car left the
chain.
Thirty feet from thl* point Is the first
curve In the rid I nr device, atll It le
one of the points of pleasure, >but be
cause of the fact that Myer* wa* stand
ing, he waa thrown over the side and
landed <5 feet below on a pile of lum
ber, Inflicting the Injuries that will
cause him much Buffering.
As soon as the accident happened the
drilled attendants at the park went to
the rescue, and made the sufferer com
fortable. with the assistance of hla
friends. The Grady ambulance waa
called, and Myars was taken to the
hospital.
Hundreds of people who were near
the device yelled to Myers to be seat
ed, and hla friends In ths car uaed
every effort to make him take hla seat,
but with no success. Mr. Moxen, of the
party, aven tried to pull him down by
