IN Which 10 Give Out Con-
tracts for Work Of
Paving
MEETING HELD YESTERDAY
A Number of Plans Were Suggested,
to Solve the Problem, But 1t
Seemed to be Rather a
Hard One.

The meeting held at the city hall
yesterday afternoon for the purpose
of devising some means for enforcing
the now famous Union street paving
ordinance, was attended by several
property owners, the council commit.
tee on finance and public works and
the manufacturers of the cement tile
blocks. which the ordinance provides
must be used in the paving.
Mayor Hopkins was made chairman
of the meeting, and. after stating it's
purpose, said he would be glad to
hear from those present One or two
of the property owners expressed
their opinion, but instead of Offering
some plan whereby the rdinance could
be enforced letting the owners Off
as light as possible, they proceeded
80 Jump on council for passing such
an ordinance, stating that it would
work a hardship on many people liv-
ing on the street.
AIuCl OA0h uPPCl bAiOA SO''N NhN
fooi and stated thai he was Opposed
to the ordinance from the beginning,
but now that it was law. he wanted
to find some way 't. discover it.
Several members of ccunc offered
different solution of the knotty prob
lem, but each suggestion brough forth
a long discussion and objections from
other members of council.
Mayor Hopkins stated that he
thought the only successful plan
would be for the city to begin at the
end of the street aid pave right o.
down, letting the contracts out as the
property of different owners was
reached. Then those who did not
contract for the work themselves, the
city could have the paving done, issue
executions against the property and
realize the amount involved.
This plan met some opposition and
a number of others were offered. Al
ter considerable discussion. Alderman
Cook offered a resolution. which car
ried. and which. it is thought viii
solve the question.
The resolution, in effect, provides
that all owners of Union street proper
ty shall be given notice that they
must award the contract for paving
within thirty days from date. At the
expiration of that time all property moi
under contract will be contracted f0'
by the city, the work will dc done
and if the owners still refuse to pas
for same executions will be lssueo
against the different owners.
The resolution merely gives those
who have not yet contracted far the
work thi'tv days more in which t.
n do so. Members of council seem t.
be Of the Cr:Iion that at the exlira
lion Of thai time, every person OWING
prorcrty cns Union street viii have
contracted for the paving.

Southern Railway Thinks
Roads Can Operate Frsights
on the Sabbath
Superintendent Scale Was Indicted,
Convicted, Heavy Fine Imposed
and the Case Has Now
Been Appealed

Through j, N. Scale, superintendent
OF transportation, the Southern rail-
way Is testing the validity of the
Georgia law prohibiting the running
of freight trains on Sunday. Superin-
tendent Scale was indicted, tried and
convicted some months ago for viola,
ting this law, and his appeal to the
state court was dismissed upon tee
nicality raised by Attorney General
John G. Hart. the merits of the case
not being determined.
Superintendent Scale was recently
again indicted, tried and convicted
III the superior court of Habersham
county for a similar offense, and
fined $1,000. From this judgment he
appealed to the state supreme court
and the case was argued Wednesday
John j. Strickland. of Athens, repre-
senting the plaintiff in error, while
Solicitor General Charters, of the
northwestern circuit, represented the
state
Scales contention Is that the law
is a burden upon interstate com
merce. and in restraint of such COM
merce. and it is therefore in confiic
with the provisions of the constitu-
ton of the United States; also that
the state has no right to designate one
particular day. as fixed by any relig-
ious sect. as the Sabbath.

CAN'T SUPPLY THE BIG DEMAND
Oyster Dealers Have More Orders
Than BivaIves.

The average local oyster deq!2f is
II. the market begging for the biyalves
and shuckers. The fact Of the mat
ter is they cannot come anywhere
near supplying the local demand, to
say nothing of the many out of town
orders on the books untitled.
One deaisr yesterday received an
order from a Macon man for 115 gal.
Ions and several barrels in the shell
but he could only ship very small
part Of the order. Some of the oy-
ster houses have their troubles in Sc
curing help, while others simply can
not get the oysters.
The weather for the past few days
has been very much against the oy-
stermen. which probably accounts for
the scarcity at present.

New York. Oct. 18.-Mrs, Harry X.
Thaw said today that she Is not In
the least worried by the intimation
made by District Attorney jerome
that another person, in addition to
Harry X. Thaw, may be indicted for
the murder of Stanford White.
Mrs. Thaw met A. B. Peabody, or
her husbands counsel, when she
made her regular visit to the Tombs
today. The attorney was with her
when she spoke of Jerome's state
ment. When Mrs. Thaw had gone to
her husbands cell Peabody said that
Thaw was considerably perturbed
when he first learned of the statement
made by Jerome. HE was little
alarmed until Mr Hartridge, his at
toney, called upon him." said Mr.. Pea
body But he knew that the facts
in the case could not possibly warrant
the indictment of another person.
We have positive information that
Mrs. Harry Thaw did not purchase
