Street Hallway Up Asain.

The street railway tangIe was in- troduced through a resolution for in- vestigation and it was discussed at some length without a revelation of new facts. The resolution was re- ferred to the Committee on Franchises and Privileges.
 Another discussion was caused by the introduction of the ordinance to re- fund to the Montgomery Traction Com. pany $1 900 paid by the Montgomery Street Railway for a franchise to con- struct a railway on Union Street, and never used by either company. Alder man Roemer opposed the ordinance on the ground that the issuance of the franchise and the deposition of the money constituted legal sale AL derman Lobman and Alderman Foster explained that the deposition of the money did not constitute a sale, but was a bonus or forfeiture. Mir. Foster said street railway companies always acted in good faith, and the city ought to be magnanimouS.

One Of the aldermen. spea king jocosely, remarked IL was too near election time for anything beyond what had to be done, and at times 1t seemed this spirit actually actuated the members of the body.
 Even Alderan James T. Sullivan def of Alderman Grifth was without particularly interesting results. pe- cause the challenge and it's answer were at once properly committed with out argument or discussion.
 The challenge made by Alderman Sullivan comprised e. general charge thata MT. Griffith. having removed his residence from Ward Five to Ward Two had no legal right to 8 scat In the Council as . representative or Ward Five. and that his presence in the Council and his participation in It's proceedings vitfated the transactions of that body. Mir. Sullivan asked that tho Council act at once act upon nts petition to oust Alderman Grimth. against whom. Mir. Sullivan explained, as he had previously explained. he had no personal feeling whatever.
 The most interesting note of the pro ceeding was the absence of Alderman Sullivan. As . sort Of postscript to his petition, he stated his presence in Birmingham necessitatedN his absence from the meeting of the, Council tn Montgomery

Mir. Griffith said.
 Mir. Sullivan Is the last one who ought to question my right to seat in the Council. He once raised a question as to the redistricting of the city in order to keep his place fin the Council. Mr. Sullivan was a member of this committee. and was living in
 Ward Five, yet he had two homes. He asked that the city change the
 ward lines in order to set him right.

 but I have retained a room in Ward Five. still have & right to represent Ward Five. submit this opinion of the city attorney"
 The opinion submitted was made by c, P. Mcintyre. city attorney. who said that under the facts as stated by Mir. Griffith, the latter had legal right to seat in the Council from Ward Five.
