erty of Old Sewer Company.

New Orleans. May 15.-Judge Ellis of
the Civil District COURT, today rendered
decision in the suit brought against the
purchasers of the property of the old
New Orleans Sewer Company by the city
of New Orleans. Judge Ellis made per-
manent the injunction applied for by the
taxpayers. Messrs. Brennan and Doug
las, and also decreed the alleged fran
chise of the old New Orleans Sewerage
Company null and void.
The alleged object of the suit was
to save a waste of the peoples money.
The Sewerage and Water Board accepted
the proposal of tle old New Orleans Sew
err Company. agreeing to pay 1t $4,000 for
a quantity OF property lying under the
streets of this city. Judge Ellis, in his
decision. holds that the Board was wrong
in entering into such a compromise agree
ment; that the servant was not above the
master. and also declared that the al
legged right OF franchise claimed by the
old sewerage corporation was worthless.
II is more than likely that the case will
be taken to the Supreme Court.

He fought Joe Goddard over in Aus

you that he only stood five feet two

way the Barrier Champion could beat
him was to pick him up in his arms and

So little is heard about the League Of
American Wheelmen these days that the
average rider of the bicycle would have
some excuse for asking if the organiza-
ton had done its work and ceased to
exist. Internal strife over the racing sit
uatfon IS largely responsible for the pres
ent lack of interest taken in the affairs
of the organization. When Isaac B. Pot
ter retired from the presidency the trou-
bles began. Z. J. keenan, Jr., Of Pitts
burg, was an aggressive and earnest
worke~ but the constant chickering's over
the racing situa Lion did much to ham,
per Mr.. keenan, in his administration
Conway W. Sans, Of Maryland, the
next president, was elected on the non
racing platform but before he retired
from the leadership he realized that the
league lad made the mistake Of its ex-
istence when it divorced itself from rae
ing. Mr.. Sans also believes that a Sc
rious blunder has been made in selecting
Torrington, Conn, as the place for the
holding Of the national assembly next
month. He thought that the convention
ought to have been held in some large
city in the East, either this city or Phil
adelphfa He does not think that the
number Of delegates who will go to Tor
rington will be half what would have
been present had the meeting been held
here. Those who maintained that the
league would double its membership as
soon as 1t gave up control of racing have
seen the membership dwindle from 100, 900
to 10000.
