CITY COUNCIL OF ATLANTA.
Transfer Ordinance Passes-Nenl
Cnse-The New Viaduct.

ChSe-Ihc New ' tHOucI.
Atlanta, Ga, April 5-The city council
this afternoon passed unanimously the
ordinance drawn by Mayor Collier requir-
ing street railways to grant transfers
whereby a passenger will be carried to
any point on the line Of any company for
one fare. instead of being required to pay
twice, as heretofore.
The ordinance is drawn so as to go into
effect May l next 1t is anticipated, how
ever, that the Consolidated company will
fight it in the courts. and it may be je-
layed by injunction.
Before the ordinance was passed this
afternoon President Joel Hurt of the Con,
soldated company sent communication
in which he vigorously protested against
it, but the councilmen turned a deaf ear
to the protest, and Immediately passed the
transfer law without a single dissenting
voice.
1t was expected that the committee
which made the investigation of the
charges against Sanitary Inspector Veal
would make its report to council to-day,
recommending that formal charges be pre-
ferred but 1t did not do so. All the testi-
mOny has been taken by the committee,
and il is pretty certain that its recom-
mendation will be for full trial of the
sanitary chief, as much damaging testi-
mony was given last week
A report VIII probably be made some
time this week. as soon as the testimony
taken by the committee can be tram
scribed at a special meeting of council.
The council did not accept the PROPOSE
tlOn of the Southern and Central Rail-
way Companies to give $25,OOO toward the
building of the proposed viaduct over
Mitchell street, which the roads want, in
contemplation of a new union depot
there The matter was ordered referred
back to the railroads making the offer for
the detailed specifications of the viaduct
desired together with a more explicit un-
derstanding as to the contribution of $685.
