MACON, GA, November s.-rhe hear
ing on the petition OF the Dunlap Hard
ware Company ct ais. against the South
ern railroad, an application for receiver
ship will take place before Judge Emory

ceiver be appointed to take charge OF
the stock owned by the Southern railway

THE ALLEGED MASONIC IMPOSTOR.
1t is charged that the man, Hugh C.
Hunter alias Simmons, now in Jail here
in default of payment of fine imposed
for drunkenness, has, on representa-
tions that he was Mason In distress.
obtained money and other favors from
members of the order in Richmond,
Portsmouth and Petersburg. The paper
he carries bears the name Of Hugh
C. Hunter, while he has confessed that
his name is Simmons. The paper pur-
ports TO have been issued by the Mays
Landing On. j. Masonic Lodge, but on
examination, it is shown that the lodge
seal and letter heading are pasted on
the paper. and the lodge denies all know
ledge of Hunter or Simmons. Charges
of obtaining money under false pletences.
will, therefore, be preferred against
Simmons, and the case will probably be
heard on Thursday morning.
