The City Council to Wait Awhile Be-
fore Deciding on System.
1t was expected that the city council
would settle the garbage crematory ques-
ton last night by adopting either the Engle
or Hughes cremators, but it didn't. Two
propositions were subnitted, one by the
Engls Sanitary and Cremation Company,
anfthe other by the U lited States Gas and
Fuel Company Of Pnila lelphia, to build
crematories, the first the Engle furnace,
and the ,econd the Hughes furnace.
The E gle campany's bi1 was 5000, and
the Hughes company's bid 5000 TIE
Hug les crematory has a greater capacJy
than he Engle, and the conditions which
the company med in its offer were a
guarantee of satisfaction, or no pay.
The he lth and cemetery COMMITTEES rec
ON nended the adoption of the Hughes
system. Alderman Harris, chairman of
the committee, said that ne was sati fed
that the city does not want the Engle
system, that il has proven unsatis-
first cost Of building tine furnace is less than
that of the H Ighss systen, he was con-
WINGED that the latter is preferable.
Alderman Nichols moved 10 refer tae
matter to a committee of the whole, to be
reported upon at future meeting.
Alderman harris wanted the matter
acted upon at once. The cou lci has
already held half doz9n meetings, he
said aud is no nearer decision than it
was two weeks ago.
Alderman Harmon agreed with DR.. Har-
ris.
Alderman Bailey wanted the matter laid
over until the Engle crematory, W lich is
10 be built in jacksonville, is tested. Several
others of the board wanted to look into the
matter further, and it was turned over to a

Remains Unsigned - he Banks
Charges of .Fraud-Oncers Kept
Busy Serving Garnishments in the
Hope of Stopping What Money
NAPLES May Have Had Out-Other
Suits Likely to Follow.
Mai. w. D. NAPLES y still in Jail, An
Intellectual effort was made by his attorneys,
Garrard & Meldrim, to secure his release
la night on So, 900 bond. The announce
ment yesterday morning of his arrest
created quite a sensation in bus ness cir
cles. A MORNING NEWS reporter called at
the jail, but the prisoner had nothing to
say.
The Citizens bank in addition to the
criminal proceedings, which resulted in
NAPLES arrest, has begun suit in the city
court against w. d. NAPLES and W. d.
NAPLES as gent, to secure the ayInent Of
four demand notes aggregating ss,340, which
were secured by warehouse certificates.
The first note for s., 800 was given Feb. %,
and was secured by 16J barrels of rice
valued at 5000 70 in the Lathrop
ware aouse. The second note was
given March l. and was for $1,720, secured
by ITO barr lis of rice in the DuckworJh
warehouse. The other two notes we're given
March 2, the first for 81, 40 and the second
for 81 $50 Both were secured by rice in
the Lathrop warehouse.
II was the first note that got NAPLES In
trouble. The bank held thu warehous 3man's
certificate as security NAPLES rep esented
that he had a customer for the rice. d
wet TO the ba and got the certificate
giving the usual bank receipt for it. The
understanding was that upon the sale of
the rice he would pay the money over to
the bank. This ne failed to do, and as soon
as it was discovered that he did not propose
to return the money, " rrant was sworn
out for his arrest on the charge Of larceny
after trust.
NAPLES claimed to have $1,000 in the
Southern, but whether ne did or
not is not known. Garnishments
were served upon all Of the banks
yesterday, and upon several private
firms. The Citizens bank directors propose
to push their case against NAPLES. and they
believe that they will be able to recover
part Of what he owes them. The suit to
recover on the notes has been set for trial
May 6. Other suits are expected to be in
stituted to-day.
