WANT SPARKS REMOVED.
Tho Georgia Southern and Florida Railway
In Court Again.

MACON, GA, Feb. "a petition for
the removal Of ". b. Sparks as receiver
of the Georgia Southern and Florida
railroad came up for hearing in the su-
perior court before Judge jenkins to-day.
Mr.. Sparks vas appointed receiver In
1891, and since then has conducted the ar
fairs of the road. At a meeting Of bond
holders some time ago held in Baltimore
the committee appointed to investigate the
affairs and report thereon appeared to
be satisfactory. Afterwards. however, a
petition for the removal of Mr.. Sparks
was filed. and charges of mismanagement
and %incapacity were freely made. An
answer filed by Sparks denies emphati-
caiiy these charges.
The hearing is interesting on account of
the great sensation made by the collapse
of the Macon Construction Company, Of
which Sparks was president. and Of which
the Georgia Southern and Florida was a
part. Messrs, Gustin, Query and Hall, Of
Macon, and Hon. A.. o. Bacon represent
the receiver and the road. Messrs. Hoke
Smith and Dessau represent the bondhold-
ers and the trustees. The hearing will
last several days, as the fight is close on
both sides. Three witnesses for the bond
holders were examined at length to-day,
and all the papers in the case were read.
At G O'Clock p. NJ. the court adjourned
until tomorrow morning.
