Atlanta. Aug. 11-Mayor Woodward
showed up at his Office this morning for
the first time in over week in fact, since
the date of his appearance at the Lake
wood cake walk. armed win a bottle of
champagne and a good sized jag.
The Mayor looked a litlle shaky on ac-
count of the strain he has gone through
since the Council began humping hun,
and his visit so his office to-day WAS
ssainst tha express wishes Of his physi-
can.
During the absence of the Mayor, Mayor
Pro Tenn. Mitchell has been holding down

ing to greet The chief magistrate Of the
CITY. The two held a close conference Il
IN honr or more, during which the status
OF puzzle business was explained to tue
Mayor.
lie Attended a Meeting.
After this the Mayor attended a meeting
of the committee that has been wrestling
for three weeks with the fight for street
railway franchises The few hours he
spent at his office he found a greater tax
upon his strength than he had anticipated
and so announced that he would not come
down again until next week. If he is

meeting of the Council to be held on next
Monday, for the purpose of further con-
STEERING his case.
Under the terms of the resolution an
pointing the committee to Investigate the
Mayors conduct passed yesterday, this
committee cannot begin its work until
Monday. this provision being put in so "a
10 give the Mayor time 10 recuperate or
TO offer his resignation, if he has any lin
gering intention in that direction The
statement that he positively viii not re-
sign was reiterated by his authority at
the city haE to-day. So it seems that
the committee will have 10 assume the
responsibility of making a report either in
favor of preferring articles of impeach-
ment or to abandon that step and wait
for further Developments
Woodward Makes Denial.
Mayor Woodward to-day gave out a
statement denying that he had anything
90 do with the publication of the inter
view with his lawyer Col. Meyers, in
which the latter declared that if the Mayor
went down he would have eminentiy re-
spectacle official company. The Mayor
says he has never made use of any such
language and is not responsible for the
threat contained therein.
Attorney Meyers ignores the action of
Council in taking notice of this interview
and providing for an investigation Of
councilmen who might be effected by the
covert accusation. The Mayors disclalm-
er has had tendency to modify the coun-
clmen, who saddle the responsibility
upon Col. Meyers and It seems that the
latter does not care a white about the
wrath of the Council members so long as
he succeeds in shielding the Mayor from
their wrath

ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING.
Citizens fleet This Afternoon to
Consider Matters of Vital
Interest.

business men and citizens of
Florence was held at the city hall
this afternoon to discuss the ques-
ton of railroad and Cyanide works
removal. Hon. Frank p. Warner
presided aud Geo. Killian served
as secretary.
Mayor Mcclure was called for
and in responding briefly went
over the work done by the com
mittee appointed some time ago
to confer with Superintendent
Ridgway. stating that in former
conference he was informed that
the +, & c. c. would probably
spend between $4,000 and $780,
WO in The erection of shops.
fuuudhouscs, etc. The matter of
additional grounds for terminal
facilities was also talked over. In
his last conference with Mr..
Ridgway he was Informed that the
proposed shop and other plans
had been broadened and that con-
siderable more land will be need
ed than at first supposed. Mr..
Mcclure also stated that he
understood that Canon City had
made certain proposals to the rail
road people looking to the build
ing of their line from the vicinity
-of Russell to Canon CITY: that
yesterday the committee learned
that the railroad officials were at
Cripple Creek. A telegram was
sent asking for an interview. but
that the committee had been un-
able to secure one. He stated
that in conversation between MIR.
Ridgway and Mr.. Ruby, the for
mer wanted to know what Flor
ence desired to do in the matter,
and that if proposals of any kind
were to be made they must be
made at once as a meeting would
be held in Denver tomorrow when
the quest on of removal would be
finally settled.
Mr.. Mcclure had estimated that
it would probably require from
Sl5. 900 to $4,000 to meet the prob
able emergency. That strip of
land about 100 feet long parallel
with the ID. e. r. q. would be
needed by the railway in addition
to that already held.
Nj. E. Lewis moved that a COM
mittee of nine to solicit funds be
appointed, which was adopted.
The chair appointed the following:
FUNDS s-M. f. Lewis, j. b. Me-
serve, J. c. McCreery, VIM. White,
p, 7. Mcclure, ID. A. Jack, FL. E.
Killian, Frank Ruby and j. w.

Also a committee of nine to as
certain the cost of the land needed

p. Wilbar,. w. l.. Morris, R. D..
Graham, Thos. Carmody, G. H.
Bissell, j. F. Greenawalt, Hugh

Mayor Mcclure again urged
upon the people the necessity of
immediate and earnest work if
anything was to be accomplished,
as the removal of the railroda and
shops and pos sibly the Cyanide
plant, would mean the loss of al
least one-half of the business now
being done in Florence. j. A.
