ATLANTA'S MAYOR DEFIANT.

ATLANTA, Co., Aug. 2e.-The Common
Council Of Atlanta 10 preparing q warm
reception for Mayor Woodward, who made
scene at the municipality convention In
Tolsdo. This afternoon It was decided
to hold . special meeting Of the Council
on Monday, when Mayor Woodward Is ex-
pcct4d to reach home. The special meet
int u cal,ed for the purpose Of considering
the conduct Of the Mayor, and 1t IL said that
q majority OF tho Council is pledged to
work for the impeachment Of Woodward.
Tho Mayor was still In Toledo this
afternoon and wired message OF
defiance which has increased the in
dignation. Evidence IL 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
Atlomao Journal this afternoon says:
There would be no disposition on our
part to ourtail the Mayors bibulous pleas

But In this case he was representing At

to account for his failure to uphold the
dignity and prestige OF Atlanta. Atlanta
wanted the League Of American Munich
palities to meet hero next year. Is it any
wonder. after the scene created by At
lanta's insbriated Mayor, that the propo-
sition was turned down as a rather humor-
Gus proposal? Woodward has forced At
lanta to share his disgrace before the eyes
OF all the world, and the Council should
