ONE BRIDGE WAS OPENED.
Highland Avenue and Belt Road Given Thirty
 Days.

There was more discussion about the bridge across the railroad tracks on Twelfth and Twenty-second streets than anything else at the special meeting of the council last night.
 The following resolution drafted by City Attorney Lowe was adopted to cover the case of the Highland Avenue and Belt company:
 Whereas, The Highland Avenue and Belt Railroad company has failed and refused to psrform it's contract with the city and it's duty to the public in this:
 l. It has utterly failed and refused to keep Twenty street bridge in condition safe to travel to passengers on foot or in vehicles.
 ?. It has allowed judgments to go against the mayor and board of alder men of Birmingham for personal inju- ries received by reason of the defective condition of said bridge.
 3. It has failed and refused to pay for the paving between it's tracks on Nineteenth street and on First avenue between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets on said city.
 4. It has failed to keep its tracks on the streets on grade and in safe condi- tion for public travel.
 Therefore be it resolved, That unless the said Highland Avenue and Belt Railroad company within fifteen days from this date pay the judgment or in- demnify the city against the judgments aforesaid and pay the city, or secure the payment of the amount due the city for paving as aforesaid, and within thirty days cause said bridge to be put in a. safe condition for public. travel thereon that the franchise and rights of said corporations within the limits of the city of Birmingham, shall be rescnded.
 The bridge which the city controls will be held open. City Engineer Kendrick was instructed to inspect it daily and the rapairs will be made as fast as pos sible.
 There were present at the meeting Aldermen Lynagh, Wheeler, Rainbow, Kerr, Mcknight, Moore, Williams, Gra- ham, Hamilton, Pearce, McCartin and Hentschel.
 A resolution, the substance of which was that the council did not consider @ prosecuting attorney for the police court necessary was passed. It was said af- ter the meeting that the recent reform in that court prompted the resolution.

 John Scott, Ed Moore and another negro whose name could not be learned were raising disturbance in the front car by their loud and boisterous talking, and Superintendent Varnel T. Brown of the dummy line, who was acting con- ductor undertook ito quiet them, when John Scott assaulted him with a razor fnflicting slight cut on the arm.
 Several white men who were In the rear car came to his assistance, when the negro Ed Morris drew a revolver and the unknown negro knife and demanded the release of Scott. About this time Officer. Cole reached the scene and succeeded in handcuffling Scott and Moore. The third negro escaped. The two negroes were brought to the city and locked up. A charge of assault with a weapon was docketed against Scott and of assault and carrying concealed weapons against Moore.
 Captain Weir sent Officer Cole back with the dummy, as it was thought that another attack might possibly be made by friends of the arrested negroes.
