in deal with the auctioneer, or some
thing of the kind. To say the least, 1 feel
that his remarks are entirely uncaied
for"
Mayor Myers endeavored to pacify mat
tiers by explaining that no reflections were
intended He said the committees report
was fully appreciated by Council, but it
was subject to revision, and no disappoint-
ment should be felt if Council did not see
fit to ratify the report
Alderman Williams was seen after the
meeting by a Morning News reporter, but
he was not in the best of humor over the
action Council took in turning down the
committees report. Time and trouble
were required in preparing these matters
for Council and if the judgment of the
committee was worthless, he said ii looked
like some kind of change was necessary.
He had undertaken the trust he now fills,
and intended to fulfill it faithfully While
tine management of his own properties kept
him engaged, he proposed to find time TO
attend to his city duties. If the time and
labor of committees went for naught,
however, Council had as well take these
matters in hand from the start.
81 made myself clear at the meeting,
think" said Alderman Williams, but
Council did moi seem to understand, as
do, that this is not the best precedent TO
set Persons expect to absorb that prop
erty, believing that the CITY will not make
any effort to dispose of it to any one else.
I am advised some told the agent they
did not care to buy at all, while Others bid
10 cents a foot proposed to Mr. deBruyn
Hops to pay 30 cents a foot for the surplus
he bought, and he readily agreed to do it.
1t must be understood that few persons
are apt to attend auction sales for such
strips and the result will be the city may
have to part with the property for prac-
tically nothing. Council has a perfect
right to exercise its judgment in these
matters, but when trades are studied out
and are proposed in the best interest OF
tax payers due consideration should be
given to what the city is TO GAIN
Had it not been for the fact that some
of the committee turned in Council, the
rundown might have been taken even
more seriously. There are probably few
members of Council who have given
more deliberate attention 10 their depart
ments than has Alderman Williams and
the reputation of his judgment because
of an alleged unpleasantness between some
aldermen and Mr.. deBruyn Hops is not
considered by him to be fair play. A
trade is a trade, he says, and the tax pay
ers need bargains occasionally as well as
individuals do

JONES WAS Acquitted.
A Midget, Who Was Too Small for
the Court, Told to Get.

Midget, Who Was Too Small for
the Court, Told to Get.
John Jones, the negro who elashed Po-
liceman T. c. Murphy in the head with
knife few nights ago. was tried in the
Superior Court yesterday on the charge
of assault with intent to murder, and was
acquitted.
The evidence showed that the ARRAY oc-
CURED in dark lane, and that Jones did
not know that he was assailing a police
man. He had just had a difficulty with
another negro, aud when he heard the
sound of a horse being ridden down the
lane he took il for granted that his an
tagonist was driving away his hack.
which had been left standing in the lane
Going down TO the lane he saw that the
hack was all right, but as he started to
return 10 his house some one seized him
by the shoulder and said I've got you
Jones claimed that he thought it was the
man with whom he had just had the diff
iculty who had seized hold of him. When
ne discovered his mistake he ran. but on
finding that ii was a policeman, who was
in pursuit of him he surrendered. Jones
was pretty badly punished by Murphy
with his club.
Jones story tailed in part with the evil
dence of Policeman Murphy, who said that
it was as dark as a dungeon ia the lane.
He had heard a row In progress in the
lane, and had gone in to put a stop to il.
Jones was represented by Attorney r. T..
Colding, who handled the case in a re-
markedly clever manner.
Bob King little colored midget, appar-
entity about 7 years Old was uD on the
charge of stealing $50 in cash and a check

replied the solicitor.
AS the boy was evidently under 10 years
of age, the case against him was mol
prosecuted, the stolen money having been
recovered. Judge Falhgant ordered him 10
