Washington. D. C.. Aug. 33.—Alarm

today In a dispatch to the Washington

“Senator Allison Is Improving stead

The election of Hubert L. Culbereon

For this plum three candidates are
already In sight. The friends of Er
nest C. Kontz are uralng him to make
the rare. He said Thursday morning
that he was considering the matter
and would-In all probability enter the
lists If he could spare the time from
hla law practice.
Another prospective candidate le Dr.
George Y. Pierce, former aldermen
front the Fifth ward, who says he will
run If no one else from Ms section of
the city tries for the place. He says
he thinks that considering the fact
that the Fifth ward has not been rep
resented on the board for many years
a candldntr from that part of the city
should be nble to win.
Tom Poole, of Lakewood, will also

Though these are the only three who

For the purpose of dlncueslnit the
finishing work and furnishing nf the
Juvenile reformatory on the state pris

commission will be In session Friday
morning.
To complete the building In first-

ed the appropriation of $10,000, given
for that specific purpose, by $1,600, and
part of the $$,000 allowed by this Inst
legislature will be used to cover this
deficit. The balance will be used In
furnishing the building, preparatory to
receiving boys.
From the present outlook the re-
fonnatory will be open for the re
ception of inmates by October 1. The
commissioners wilt probably enter Into
some discussion ns to the uniform
adopted for the youths. General Evans
is opposed to clothing them In regular
orison stripes or to the use of shackles,
lie says that all Idea of convict should
be removed from the boys who will go
there to be moulded Into useful ell I-

The Gate City Terminal Company wnnts
some property of Itosenfeld on the east
side of Mflffftiui street, t a abort distance
north of Hunter, and on August 11 began
condemnation proceedings to get It with

The bill nlieges that they attempt to
condemn this property as part of the main
line of a railroad which they claim they
Intend to bulhl. The petitioner claims,
however, that "the defendant corporation
waa not formed for the purpose of run
‘ • g tt railroad," on<l that “II

One seettou asserts tbst the orgsnlsa.*
tlon Is “a sham and a shell." sod that Its
only Intention Is to provide terminals for
tlie Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic and
the HealMHird Air Line railways.
The petition, after claiming that the de
fendant corporation was trying to condemn
more property than was necessary for its
uses, and that Jnst and adequate compensa
tion for the property had not been offered.

Among other questions which the peti
tioner demands lie answered are “Who are
the stockholders of the Gate City Terminal
Company !" and “What Is the exact location
of the right-of-way for the main line?"
