REQUESTS FOR FRANCHISES.
Council Will Investigate
 the Matter.

Tuscumbia, May 9.-(Special. .)-Several propositions were presented to the City Council of Tuscumbia at it's last meet ing, asking for franchises for an electric light plant and a system of water works. No definite action was taken in the mat ter, but committee was appointed to investigate the propositions and ascertain the financial ability of the promoters to put into successful operation the plants. Within the last two years several fran chises for this purpose have been granted butt for some reason the persons to whom the privilege was granted failed to comply with terms of agreement. It is possible that the franchise will be granted to one who will be required to post a forfeit sufficiently large to insure the success of the enterprise.
