Since the refusal of the City Council
to extend the. time-limit of the filing of

circulation There was one on the streets
yesterday to the effect that Messrs. Pat
ton. Ainslie, Siterdins and 'rravers. OF
Richmond. all incorporators and Messrs.
Wilson and Watson. of New York would
accept the franchise and post the $4,000
forfeiture bond.
This may or may not be done. Time
will develop that. but one thing is sure,
that at the time this rumor was given
currency no such plan of action had
been decided upon by the gentlemen
named. One of them, when seen. stated
in the most emphatic terms that no meet
ing had been held and no such decision
made among the gentlemen named. The
matter" said he, sis in statu quo. We
do not know what will be done at this
time. We are simply waiting and while
] do not say that some action may be
taken, before the time-limit expires, do
say that we have no plans now"
1t is probable that a meeting will be
called for some time Monday. The time

n RESTAURANT EPISODE.
\ Sort Of Straw Vote.

An advertising agent, representing z
prominent New York magazine, while
on recent western trip, was dining one
evening in q Pittsburg restaurant.
While waiting for his order. he glanced
over his newspaper and noticed the ad-
vertisement of a weIl-known dyspepsia
preparation Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets:
as ne himself was regular user of the
tablets, he began specializing as to how
many of the other travelling men in the
dining-room were also friends of the
popular remedy for indigestion.
He says: 81 counted t"enty-thrce men
at the tables and in the hotel office |
took the trouble to interview them and
was surprised to learn that nine of the
twenty-three made practice of taking
one or two OF Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
after each meal.
One of them told me he had suffered
so much from stomach trouble thai At
one time he had been obliged to quit the
road. but since using Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets had been entirely free from indi-
gastion, but he continued their USE espe-
cially while travelling, on account Of ir-
regularity in meals and because like ali
travelling men, he was often obliged to
eat what he could get and not always
what he wanted
Another, who looked the picture c.
health, said he never ate meal without
taking a Stuart Tablet afterward be-
cause he could eat what he pleased and
when he pleased, without fear OF a sleep
less night or any other trouble.
Still another used. them because he was
subject to gas on stomach, causing pres
sure on heart and lungs. shortness OF
breath and distress in chest. which he
no longer experienced since using the
tablets regularly.
Another claimed that Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets was the only safe remedy he
had ever found for sour stomach and
acidity; he had formerly used common
soda to relieve the trouble. but the tab
lets were much better and safer to use
