COUNCIL N EXTRA SIS ION.


The city council met in extra
session at 2 p. m. yesterday, Act
ing Mayor Knapp presiding and
Aldermen Mcdonald, Seanor
Leverett and Radcliffe present.
The call for the meeting was
ordered by the acting mayor for
the purpose of considering the
case Of Policeman Wilson, sus-
pended Monday evening for in
subordination. The suspended
officer had the backing of the en-
tire police force who threatened
to resign if he was not
re-lnstated, or at least given
a hearing. He had been
suspended on an exparte hear
ing. In his statement before the
council yesterday afternoon the
policeman was careful not to
acknowledge any error and seem
edto be Indifferent as to the action
of the council. After he made
his statement the council rein
stated him.
Mayor Wilson was absent
having left the day before for an
extended trip in the north.
After disposing of the police
question the council discussed
the assessment ofrailroad prop
erty in the city. Attorney Jay
was present and gave it as his
opinion that the assessment for
all the property owned by the
railroads and used by them for
railroad purposes must be as
sessed by the Comptroller. Al
derman Seanor at least was dis
posed-t to find a way around the
Comptroller's assessment. The
Alderman had probably been
reading DR.. Tibbot's letters in
the Enterprise.

A Small Fire.

About 2:30 o'clock yesterday
morning the shack on Oconee
Street, recently occupied by the
vagabond family of Rich's, was
discovered to be on fire, but no
great progress had been made
by the blaze, and, although the
building had been we'll saturated
with oil, the several neighbors
attracted by the first alarm soon
had the fire out.
The incendiary evidently want
ed to be rid of the house rather
than risk any more Erich"
neighbors.
The unc1ean and unworthy
family moved out of the house,
and the city, Tuesday in search
of other pastures green, and no.
body seems to credit them with
energy enough to return to set
fire to the house.
The shack belonged to Mr.. H.
G. Wise, who should not be made
to suffer on account the sorry
family he permitted to occupy
his house, as his intensions were
