ATLANTA, Ca, Aug. 2e.-The Common
Council Of Atlanta IL preparing q warm
reception for Mayor Woodward, who made
scene at tho municipality convention In
Toledo. This afternoon 1t was decided
to hold special meeting Of the Council
on Monday. whom Mayor Woodward Is ex-
peoted to reach home. The special meet
ing 10 called for the purpose Of considering
the conduct Of the Mayor. and It is said that
majority Of the Council II pledged to
work for the impeachment Of Woodward.
The Mayor was still in Toledo this
afternoon and wired q message OF
defiance which has increased the In
dignation. Evidence is being procured
from officers Of the Municipal League who
Witnessed the outbreak Of the Mayor to
support an impeachment charge.
Sentiment In favor Of ousting the Mayor
is general. versing this sentiment, the
Atldntd journal this afternoon says:
There would be no disposition on our
Part to curtail the Mayors bibulous pleas
ures so long a. he worshiped Bacchus in
private. II he gets drunk In his private
capacity II Ia his own business chiefly.
But In this case he was represe ming At
lanta, and the Council should call him
to account for his failure to uphold the
dignity and prestige Of Atlanta. Atlanta
wanted the League Of American Munich
ralltios to meet here next year. Is It any
wonder. after the scene created by At
lanta's inebriated Mayor, that the propo-
sition was turned down as rather humor-
GUS proposal? Woodward has forced At
lanta to share his disgrace before the eyes
of all the world. and the Council should
