Yesterday. at the request of Captain
a. c. Heldt survey was held on the
barge Jennie T.. Marshall" The barge
was lying on Berkeley Flats" at an
Choir laden with n cargo of fsh-scrap
in bags. This unsavory substance had
been taken from the schooner John A.
Curtis. which schooner. it will be re-
collected, was sunk in Hampton Roads
some two weeks ago, and was thor
ouEhly water soaked. The whole mass
was in fermentation, and had become
so heated that. to prevent spontaneous
combustion, quick action was impera-
tive.
Captain George f. Philips. who made
the survey, recommended that the best
interests of all the parties would be
subserved by an immediate discharge
of the cargo. In pursuance of this
conclusion, the barge was at once
towed across the bay to Sandy Is

from this putrid mass of decaying fish.

THE BELL
TELEPHONE.
Rumor That 1t Will
Soon Ask For a
Franchise.
GENERAL MEHNy's VISIT.

a well-defined report is going the
rounds that the Southern Bell T-ele-
phone Company will in the near future
submit a petition to the City Council
asking for the right to occupy the
streets of the city with its poles and
wires. and to do general telephone
business here. Several years ago the
old franchise of this company expired
and the Council refused to renew il.
The company was directed to remove
its poles and wires. but declined to do
SO, and the city authorities were about
to chop down the poles when the com
pany went into the United States Cir
cult Court and sued out an injunc-
ton estraining the Council from TAX
ing this step. Since then the case has
been heard III the Federal Courts on its
merits and decided in behalf of the
city. An appeal has been taken TO the
United States Supreme Court, and here
the matter rests.
1t is understood that General T.. p.
company, has been in the CITY during
the past ten days looking into public
sentiment and the eXpediency of resub-
hitting the franchise question TO the
Councils. General Meany could not be
found to-day, and Mr.. Chipley, super
intcndent of the company. is out of the
city. Therefore, no one here was in
authority to make a statement as to
what the Southern Bell people propose
to do.
The above is a brief statement of the
case of Southern Bell Telephone Com
pany versus City of Richmond.
