EXTENSION OF can LINES.

street and Lane Committee Dis
cusses Routes for Southern Section
At meeting of the street and lane com
mittee last night the route which it is
proposed to recommend for the proposed
extension of car lines into the western part
of the southern section was discussed. Be
sides Aldermen Davis, Owens, Smith.
Krouskoff and Reid of the street and
lane committee, City Engineer Winn and
Commissioner Willink were also present.
Several routes suggested themselves, but
it is understood the one considered best for
that section branches out from the Battery
Park line on the Ogeechee road. One
route discussed proceeds along Center
street, thence along Florence to Eleventh.
to West Broad and to the city. There will
probably be a conference with the property
owners in that section, however, before
any definite route is decided upon.
What the city is endeavoring to settle
is a route that will accommodate the peo-
pie in that territory They have been
clamnoring for better street car facilities
for some time, and it seems something
will be done in this direction, II route
Is agreed upon. eAt least, this is the in
ference that might be drawn from con-
versation Alderman Krouskoff had with
President Parsons of the street railway
company. AS was stated in the Morning
News, Alderman Krouskoff incidentally
called Mr.. Parsons attention to the need
in that section of better facilities. Mr.. POPE
Barrow, the roads attorney, later called
on Alderman Krouskoff, and 1t was agreed
to discuss the matter with view TO de-
termining the route. Last nights ineetlhs
is the first step in this direction.
The committee feels confident something
will be accomplished. The members ex-
press their intention of doing everything
nossible TO have the lines extended.

TRYING TO COLLECT FEES.
Keeper Umbach Presents Bills fo-
Removing Powder.

Keeper Umbach Presents Bills fo-
Removing Powder.
Keeper w. C. Umbach OF the powder
magazine has made out and presented bills
to the merchants who had explosives
stored In the old magazine, charging them
the regular fees for the removal of their
goods from the old magazine TO the new
magazine recently erected by the city on
the ogeechee road.
All told, the bills amount to a little more
than $1,000. and as the greater part of
the stock In the magazine rs held by a
few merchants, their bills are quite heavy,
In one instance amounting to nearly $500.
The merchants TO whom the bills were
presented have refused to pay them, hold
ing that they did not order the powder re-
moved, and that they are not responsible
for any action Of the city in changing the
location Of its store house for explosives.
Under the ordinance the keeper OF the
magazine receives a certain fee upon all
powder and other explosives issued from
the magazine and naturally Keeper UNI
bach has considerable personal interest
in the matter.
