HERE IN ATHENS
TOE CENTRAL RAILROAD CASE
IS BEING WATCHED WITH
INTEREST.
* i#
CIS DEBEXTL'IES AM) KOMIS

Are Held Here to the Amount
of Several Hundred Thous
and Hollars—Will the
Road be Re-organized ?
EDITOR BILL MOORE DEAD-
The
The proceedings in the Central case
at Savannah are being watched with
interest all over Georgia, but nowhere
is the interest greater than right here
in Athens.
This arises from the fact that very
large amounts of stocks, debentures
and bonds are held by citizens of Ath
ens and they are wrought up over the
situation.
Somewhere in the neighborhood of
three hundred thousand dollars of these
securities are held in Athene, being
distributed around among a number of
eiticsna. Mrs. M. E. Xevitt, Mrs. S.
P. Thurmond, Mrs. R. M. Wade and
others are large stockholders in the
Central.
KK-onoANIZATION the thing.
The sale of the road has been fixed
for February 1, but the holders oi
junior securities are going to try to re
organize aa a last resort. The Hollins
plan having about fallen through, they
turn to Drexel, Morgan & Co. for re
lief. The following interview with a
prominent Savannahian who is in posi
tion to know the facts appeared in yes
terday’s Savannah Tress:
“Du you believe Drexel, Morgan &
Co. will undertake to re-organizs the
Central?”
"That’s where the rub comes in—will
they? You know there is a large
amount reserved nnder the Terminal
re-organization plan for acquiring ad
ditional roads. The question is wheth
er it will pay best from their stand
point to let the 42,000 shares be wiped
oat and buy in the Central and such
other parts of the system as are desired
freed from all old encumbrances, or to
endeavor to re-organize it so as to
give value to the 4:1,000 shares. On the
-decision as to which oilers the best re
turns may depend the solution of the
Central’s troubles.

There is evidently a great desire to
find out who edited the Univeisity
Bumble-Bee and where it was publish
ed.
Last Monday a.detective was caught
prowling around Jefferson and inspect
ing things at the Jackson Herald office.
It was pumped out of him that be was
hunting a Bumble-Bee, and the editor
of the Herald sent a boy out into the
fields in search of one of the genuine
critters.
On being told what the fellow was
really after, the citizens there became
very much excited and sent all the way
to Athens to get a copy of the Bee.
ButvQf.cour8e it couldn’t be found and
they were left lamenting.
From the favorable reception given
the Bee at the hands of the public, it
seems that the editor might disclose his
name. The-truths be told hit straight
home,but he evidently is being tortured
by remorse for that piece he wrote about
Prof. Barrow, which has been univer
sally condemned.

MAYOR
RETURNS FROM NEW TORE
CITY AND GIVES
A FULL INTERVIEW
On the Subject of the Water
Works Case with Answers
to All the Charges
Brought Against
Him. - . n
Hon H C, Took, mayor of Athens,
is back from New York, having return
ed yesterday.
He furnishes the following Interview
to the Banner concerning the water
works case: ~ ;
“First, in regard to the Banner's al
legation that I have withheld aisy of
the facts of the case or concealed the
gravity of the situation I desire to say
emphatically that there is mo founda
tion whatever for any snah^Insinuation
or charge. As soon, as I received Mr.
Nottman’s letter informing me that
tba court had disallowed and refused
the amendment, Setting up the princi
ple 61 law contained in the Carteraville
case I promptly convened a meeting of
council and laid all the - information 1
bad before that body and filed" Mr.
Nottman’s letter with the clerk of
council purposely for information of
citizens who might inquire.
"Then as to the “Cork Screw Pro
cess” suggested by Mr. Reed, by which
memhets of council were informed as to
Theongi-
oept that whoever has any knowledge
or information of any miseonduot on
the part of any Of the olty’s officials or
agents on this matter owes it not only
to the city, hut to himself, to make, his
charge direct and specify his
matt. This I would suggest
as the proper and manly way to to deal
withthe question.
"How about the attorney, Mr. Nott
man, wild represents the city?’’
"As to Mr Nottman I will say that he
is the attorney who made answer for
the Mechanic* National Bank, the bank
with which the bonds were deposited.
As the Mechanics Bank held the bonds
to trustee for the city, we were neces
sarily bound to this bank for their attor-
ney’sfee. Afterwards Mr. Nottman was
authorized tomake answer for the city.
No fee waa atipulstcd with Mr. Nottman
then.and noh( ha| been since,though it
has btonsttemptetk \ l can only toy tor
him that" "both htmtolf and firm rank as
high to any lawyer*" in'SNe'W- York. It
is true that he did not,plead thh priuoi-
pie involved-in tbe^Ca^tersville" case
though be Was notified of it in the first
instance and the pamphlet decision was
sent him in the very first correspond
ence had with him. When Mr. Rucker
and myself found that he was not dis
posed to rely upon this decision,we had
him to reduce it to writing at once and
I swore to the p'ea in his office on my
first trip. I was as much surprised Af
terwards as any one to hear that, the
amendment setting up this decision had
been refused by the court. As to
whether I am satisfied with Mr. Nott
man as an attorney and with his man
agement of the case is not a question
for mft to discuss in the newspapers
The conncil room is the proper place to
discuss and decide this question-."”

A SLIGHT DIVERGENCE.
Between the Street Committee and
. Mr. Neely.
There is a slight divergence between
the street committee of the Council and
Mr. Howard Neely, contractor, for the
new water works.
Mr. Neely under his .contract must
ieavp theatreeta in as a good condition
after the mains are laid as they were
before. He has been engaged in the
work of surfacing np the streets where
the mains are laid, but his work -does
not come up to the ideas iff the street
committee.
Chairman O’Farrell,of that committee
said that he should report the matter to
Council and let that body t*ke such ac
tion as they saw fit.
So it teems that a little discussion on
the water works case may be gotten up
right here at home.

-jC. 3
prayed for two (2) things as I under
stood from a reading of the copy re
ceived here. First, an injunction
against the sale and delivery of the
water works bonds Second, an injunc
tion against the further construction or
operation by the city of a new system
of water work*. I again repeat that I
have made a faithful and full report to
council of all the events within my
knowledge that have transpired in the
case. And the insinuation that I had
to be "cjrk-sorewed” by any one to
give the true status of the case is un
just and uncalled for.
As to the present status of the case I
can only say that the case was post
poned until the next regular session of
the court (in.Brooklyn) to oonvene on
the. first Monday in October
next. The only reason the
court gave tor continuance
was that he didn’t care to go into the
trial just now at the heel of the session
of a ease involving so much detail. By
this I inferred that he had reference to
the mass of testimony our attorney has
had given by twenty or more of our
citizens. The judge presiding, Bart
lett, further remarked to counsel for
the other side who was opposing the
oourl’s determination to postpone the
esse until October: "You shouldn’t
worry, Mr. Smith, for you continued
case before, and besides Judge Cullen
(who presided at the preliminary hear
ing of the case) said that your ease was
absolutely without any merit.” This
would be considered a very strong inti
mation of opinion by the court in
Georgia.
"How about the prospects of the
oasef”
Certainly I do not see any reasonable
ground for fear or alarm—even if we
shonld fail to dismiss the ease upon the
legal principles involved, I feel as con
fident of our triumph upon the merits
of the case as Ido of anything in the
future. That the management of a case
so far from home will entail considera
ble cost and expense* goes without say
ing. “But it Is a condition and not a
theory that confronts as.” Unfortu
nately we are caught in a fight a long
distance from home. I soe no way oat
of it now bnt to fight it out, and in the
meantime I think the - governing ana
thoritiesof the city have
expect the fair A
and confidence of ’ i
asking for. ourselves the-" same
spirit of criticism that jfe wonld
to others were they oocup/ing
same rfficial position that we do.”
