Several VIII Join Cotton Exchange
II Securities Are Listed.
The directors Of the Savannah Cot
ton Exchange will, at their February
meeting, consider very largely sign
ed petition to them, asking that the
quoting of local stocks and bonds upon
the exchange boards be considered. For
a time the interest was all in the Cot
ton Exchange.
A number of prominent and influen-
tial citizens are awaiting the action of
the exchange on this matter for if fav-
orable action is taken it is the intention
of these persons to apply for member
ship in the Cotton Exchange. There
would then be an attraction for them.
The president of a leading bank is re-
ported as saying that he will apply for
membership as soon as the Cotton Ex-
change decides to quote securities dealt
in here.
The petition awaiting the exchange
directors is probably one of the largest
yet to be filed having something like
seventy-fiVe names to it. Many who
were not approached with the petition
are favorable to the listing of local Sc
curities, however. and would have
gladly signed it had it been presented
TO them. What action will be taken by
those in authority remains to be seen.
The current belief is that the matter
will receive very serious consideration.

WANT MORE ROOM
AT POLICE STATION.
Prison Hospital and Special Cells
Are Contemplated.

Prison Hospital and Special Cells
Are Contemplated.
If City Council can be induced to
make a special appropriation the second
floor of the new police building on
Habersham street will be converted
into a prison and connected with the
station house. The need of such an
addition has been realized for quite
awhile and an effort will be made by
the Police Committee to get enough
money to do the work.
When the new building on Haber-
sham street was erected it was the
idea of those who caused the work to
be done to have the Police Court room
and the desk sergeant's office on the
first floor and the detectives room on
the second floor. II was soon found
that mistake had been made in put
ting up the building and the Offices
were moved back to the old building
on Oglethorpe avenue
AT present the second floor of the
new building is unoccuped. The first
floor is used by the detectives and Is
also used as sleeping quarters. 1t is
the idea of the superintendent of police,
and of the members of his committee,
to connect the second floor of the
convert it into a prison Of four rooms,
to be used in special cases. AS mat
ters now stand the police have no
place, other than the regular cells, to
put special prisoners or suspects, and
men and women, black and white, are
accommodated alike.
Besides having three rC oms for sus-
poets and special prisoners, who on
some occasions cannot be treated like
ordinary criminals, it is planned to
convert one of the rooms into a prison
hospital. The superintendent of police
points to the fact that often when d
prisoner has been hurt in any way and
sent to the hospital for treatment, ne
makes his escape. The hospitals have
no means of lreeping patients under
lock and key and the need of a nos
pltal at the station house has been APP
parent for a long time. With such a
place sick or injured prisoners could
be given proper medical attention by
the police surgeon, and at the same
time be kept in custody. 1t is proba-
bic that the Pole Committee will
ask for this appropriation very short
ly and every effort will be made to
get money enough to make an improve
ment that is believed 10 be absolutely
necessary.

SOUTHERN BANKS
SAVINGS Department.
improvements to Provide for In
creased Business.


The savings department of the
Southern Bank of the State of Geor-
gia has been enlarged, and several new
features calculated to facilitate the
transaction of business have been in
troduced.
The heavy increase in the business
Of this department and the growing
number of depositors impressed the
officials of the bank with the necessity
of more room and increased facilities
TO this end the space occupied by the
department has Eeen increased, an
other window has been opened, and
hereafter two accountants, instead of
one, will handle the business and wait
upon depositors.
A commodious vestibule has been
provided where depositors can wait
and be seated, instead of having to
stand IN line. 1t is the desire of the
banks officials that depositors when
they enter hand in their pass books
at the accountants window. These
books will be handled in the order in
which they come and the depositor
can be seated until his or her turn
comes. This is the method that is fol-
lowed by the large savings institutions
of the North and East, and it is found
to work well.
The improvements are all in keeping
with the other furnishings of the bank
and besides the added conveniences
the appearance of the interior of the
bank has been improved
The savings department of the
Southern Bank is one of the Oldest
and strongest in the South, and the
effort of the bank to provide it's GUS
toners with as many conveniences as
possible will no doubt meet with the
appreciation it deserves.

PAPERS SIGNED
UNDER MISAPPREHENSI0N
Says Mrs. Gould in Her Injunction
Suit Against Mrs. TeyBac.


The case of Mrs. Carrie L. Gould
against Mrs. Ellen Teynac has been
heard for the last two days before
Judge Seabrook in the Superior Court
The hearing is on a demurrer filed to
the petition. The estate involved con-
sists of about 500 in cash besides val
liable realty. Several prominent attor-
neys have been engaged, and the case
is being hard fought. The argument
was concluded yesterday, and Judge
SeabroOk reserved his decision in the
matter.
Mrs. Could is seeking to have set
aside or reformed certain muniments
of title to a parcel of land In the
southern section of the city, known as
part of the Drouillard tract, and a
part of the proceeds of the sale of
Iortion of the tract. The ground upon
which the request is founded is that
the deeds, mortgages, etc, were made
by her husband under a misapprehen-
sion, he not intending that the papers
should have the effect which they did.
Mrs. Gould alleges that Mrs. Teynac
has threatened to sell out and squan-
der the property so as to prevent her
from coming into or recovering any
portion of it as a legatee under the
will of Mr.. Teynac, in which she took
n remainder interest in fee on the
death of Mrs. Teynac. The original
deed under which Mrs Teynac obtain
ed an interest in the estate was dated
August, 1888. and the will of Mr.. ley
nae probated in 1892. In this will Mrs.
Teynac is named executrix and trust
ee. with power to sell at public or
private sale without being charged
with an accounting.
In her petition Mrs. Gould asks that
the deed and other papers conveying
title be set aside, by striking her
name therefrom: that Mrs. Teynac be
required to give bond for the faithful
performance of her duties as execu-
trix and trustee, that she be restrain
ed from disposing of or encumbering
the property of the estate, and that
a receiver be appointed to take charge
of the property.
To this petition the defendant de-
INJURED, generally, because of alleged
absence of equity in the bill, and spe-
officially, because of the lack of sew
eral material exhibits to the bill. At
the conclusion of the argument Judge
Seabrook asked counsel to file briefs
with him, and reserved his decision
until later. The PLAINTIFF is represented
by John S. Schley, r. r. Richards and
e. S. Elliott, and the defendant by U.
II. McLaws and Saussy & Saussy.

MUST STOP SCORCHING.
Bicycle Riders will Receive Atten-
ton of Police,

Following frequent complaints at
police headquarters the superintendent
of police has instructed his men to
pay special attention to bicycle riders
and to see that the ordinances govern
ing the riding of bicycles are observed.
The attention of the police has been
called to the fact that many riders
have no bells on their wheels, or if
they have do not use them. Fast rid
ing must also be stopped and lamps
must be kept lighted after dark. The
majority of the complaints lodged
with the police have been directed
against negroes who scorch on the
streets and who have no bells on their
bicycles. On several occasions pedes-
trians have been knocked down by
these scorchers and the police intend
making arrests, rather than docketing
the offenders.
