A Receiver for the Southern RailwayAsked

Macon. Ca, June 21.-A few business
men of this city filed a petition in the
United States court today to place the
Southern railway in the hands of a re-
ceiver, on the ground that the road has
violated the constitution of the state in
controlling and operating all lines Of
railway entering this city, thereby pre-
venting competition in freight rates, to
the detriment Of the management and
the general public.
Judge Emery Speer has the petition
in hand, but will not render any deci-
sion on ex parte evidence. All parties
interested, compliments as we'll as de-
PENDANTS, will be notified S that all
the facts bearing on the matter may be
argued. Judge Speer's decision in the
ROwena Clark case two years 6 es-
tablishes no precedent in the present
hearing, as the features of the two
cases are totally unlike and brought on
different grounds.

three is a crowd" for, one night, the
married Nelson woke up and heard The
unmarried Nelson engaged in q whis--
pering conversation with Mrs. Nelson,
whereupon the alleged husband -four
ished revolver, raised disturbance
and the next morning swore out the
warrant. Justice Hanna, SO we are in
formed, did not like to show too much
partiality in the matter, so he fined the
alleged husband $50 for carrying con
ceaied weapons, then fined the man
charged with rape $50 and also fined
Ethe alleged victim OF the assault $50.
The two latter fines were paid. Tie
