NOT VERY LIKELY, HWIWEVERo
THAT THE FRANCHISE WILL
BE AWAROtD—ACTION OF SO
LONS NOT KNOWN.
City couu.il will meet this even
ing.
While a few minor matters vvil.
be handled, tin' meeting is for the
nr re specific purpose of considering
the much talked of trolley line prop
osition, with a view of determining
the all important question o£ whe
ther K. D M. Strachan and his asso
ciates or Jos. M. Homan, gnd his as
sociates are going to construct and
operate a system of trolley lines in
Brunswk k.
The matter is prelty familiar to
News readers. In fact it lias been
pending before conn il foi‘ several
weeks. Two parties, Straehan and
Roman have been asking for the
franchise. IJolli sides have amended
and for : vend weeks council has
been la Iding special umetinga to
study out and ous.i ler tin; two prop
ositioas.
At one time two ordinances won*
pa. (I on first reading and it began
;<> if .ok i; council would he com

iln. in. Thm came another delay and
m e ding to tin* rules of council.
•>eih of Vi • oiednasees died. Last
mealing two ’:raiul new propositions
were introduced. Both of them wore
placed on an equal footing, by being
;l.e<d on iiu-ir tost reading, and to-!
njgbl. Uie matt.'.-r is up for final pas
sage by eoun.il.
Jus; what council will do this eve j
: ning no living man on;.side of it •
! memhersdiip can say. There are
many pt oede who belue e that, the
; Roman pe-ople will receive the covet
ted prize, whilo others are certain
| that. Sl.raohan has always been the
i choice of coni'' ii and will be award
|'d the franchise.

Failure on the part of the New
England company, a mining corpora
in Dade county, Georgia, to pay eitlv
ei interest or principal on an out.
standing issue of sfSO.OOO worth of
bonds led to the appointment of a
receiver for that .ompany Monday

In i ln> complaint they
it is alleged that In 1890 the
F.iiglatiil company was organised fo
ilie purpose of mining and smelting
iron ore in Dade county where tin
company had purchased large tracts
of land. Shortly after its iscorpora
lion, it. is alleged, the company fottmi
ii lit c-assary to raise money to con
linne business For that purpose, il
is stated in the petition, the company
sold bonds, sip met! by a deed ol
trust on part of its lands, the said
deed of trust being executed to tin
American I -can and Twist Cos., ol
1 lesion, Mass., and authorizing stn
issue of bonds not to exceed S2OO,

According to the petition of tin
creditors there is now outstanding
SBO,OOO. worth of bonds, on which tin
New England company, though fre
quently appealed to, has paid neither
interest nor principal
It is alleged further that for many
years the company has not been in
operation, and that during that time
part of its land has ibeon sold tuici
other tracts of land acquired

At the t'nie of ir: launching ir
ISlib the New England company was
regarded as one of the state's most.
promising enterprises. Many 'Geor

err., are said to lie stockholders or
holders of the so far unpaid bonds.

torney Jerome interrupted the tiili
of the Thaw case this afternoai
when,, during the progr.. s of the
case, lie moved that a commission
be appointed to try Thaw tor lunacy.
This motion on the part of the
district, attorney came as a surprise
just at this time. It had been ex
pected some time ago that the dis
trict attorney would make such a
move but it was generally under
stood and taken for granted that he
had abandoned the plan.
In making the motion Jerome ar
gued for some time. He said that
anyone in the court room, especially
those who had been present, during
iho trial of the ease, could see that
Thaw was insane. He thought that
the man should go to a lunacy com
mission aud then be sent to the asy
lum, wiiere he belongs.
After the motion was made by the
district attorney Judge Fitzgerald an
non-need an adjournment until Fri
day morning.
Alienists Testified.
During the morning cession Dr.
Hamilton, a vv il known alienist, was
on the stand r i . au. lie said
lie thought Thaw was incurably in
sane, lie was closely questioned t.y
the district attorney hut stated c,n
phntically that lie thought the man
was of unsound mind and that, las
case was a hopeless one.
