TO SETTLE MATTER
WITH MUTUAL
THIS WEEK
COUNCIL WILL PROBABLY ENTER
INTO A NEW CONTRACT WITH
COMPANY A REDUCTION TO
BE MADE.

City council will meet on Thursday
night, and ii is expected that the
matter between the city and the Mu-
tual Light and Water Company will
be finally settled, a new contract VIII
be entered into and the long fight be-
tween the city and the company will
be settled.
Just what the terms of the agree
ment will be >caannot be stated; as
a matter of fact, nothing definite is
yet known, though it is understood
that the committee in charge has
practically agreed upon their report.
which they will submit to council for
adoption.
From what can be learned it is
understood that the committee has
carefully investigated the report fill
ed by the two experts who last week
examined the books of the company.
Just what this report brought out,
however, will not be announced until
the meeting of council Thursday night.
That reduction will be made in
the present rates of the company is
practically assured. 1t may be a
general cut Of ten per cent, it may be
more or it may be less, but it is prac-
tically certain that the present pri-
ces will be reduced.
A new contract will be entered into,
and the trolley matter will be a part
Of the contract, 1t will probably pro-
vide that the company complete the
electric line in a certain length of
time.
The above statements are not
known to be facts, as council has not
yet acted on the matter, but from
what can be secured by The News,
the result Of the agreement win be
as. stated above The final announce
ment from council Thursday night

BODY OF AN infant
IN 4 WOMAN'S
TRUNK
eRuEsoME DISCOVERY MADE
NEAR CYPRESS MILL YEsTER-
DAY MORNING = coRONER's S
JURY ACTED ON THE CASE.

A. mysterious and very pathetic
story was unraveled yesterday by the
discovery Of the body Of an infant in
the trunk Of young lady who resi-
ded with a family out near the cy-
press mills. For three hours a cor
oner's jury listened to evidence yes
terday afternoon, the mother Of the
infant being in custody, but later was
as there was no evidence up
en- which she could be held.
The story is one which brought
about sympathy for the young woman
rather than censure. Not long after
she began telling her story to the
jury it was discovered that she was
half-witted, her evidence showing
that almost concldsively, while 9th
ers who had known her were free to
state that the woman was not of a
sound mind.
The discovery Of the infant was
made by the lady whom the young
woman had been employed as nurse
for several months. She came here
from Savannah 10 accept a position at
the telephone exchange. but remained
there for only a short time. Later
She was employed by a family in the
city ard then she went in the coun-
try with a family who. mostly through
sympathy, employed her as nurse.
When the woman was arraigned
before the coroner's jury yesterday
afternoon, she related the story in
it's entirety, though at times her eyi-
dence was very contradictory. She
stated that the child was born in Oc-
tober and that she placed it in her
trunk. but gave no real reason for
not ever disposing Of it. Doctors
were of the opinion that the infant
died from natural causes, but could not
understand how the body had been
so well preserved for about ten
months. The family in whose house
the infant was born knew nothing
whatever about it. even at the time
Of the birth; physicians who attend
ed the woman before the birth of the
child were also unaware of the fact
and so testified before the coroner's
jury yesterday.
After the jury had listened to the
woman's statement they at once ar
rived at the conclusion that she was
half-witted and had been the unfor-
tunate victim Of some scpundrel,
whose name she refused to reveal
but who should be dealt with rather
than the woman. She was released
and was taken in by family. 1t is
understood that she has relatives in
Savannah who will be requested tc
care fer her

that the matter will be one of the
| real live issues at the convention on
the island this month
The meeting will bring to st. Si-
mon between three and five hundred

that the convention will meet on st.

be given building suitable to ac-
commodate many large gather ,nas
which could be secured over there.

SENATOR DEAN
TALKS OF BILL
he EXPLAINS THE BANKING
MEASURE WHICH He WILL
INTRODUCE.

Waycross, Ga, July 6.-Senator
George w. Deem, whose bill to guar
antee depositors in state banks has
been the subject Of much comment
throughout the state, has given cut
an interesting interview on the sub
ject which has aroused the determi-
ned opposition of a number of lead
ing bankers in Savannah and Atlanta
The senator is Of the opinion that il
the provisions of his bill were ther-
oughly understood by the opposition
that the proposed legislation. would be
received with favor by the bankers
Jas well as by the depositors.
Senator Deem states that his bill
provides for report by the state
banks on January l next, Of their de-
posts for the previous three months
based upon which the state banks eX-
aminer shall collect one half of one
per cent of the average deposits and
this sum shall go to the guaraltee
fund. The bill provides that national
banks doing business in Georgia shall
be permitted to avail themselves Of
the guaranty fund on the same terms
as the state banks. This guaranty
fund shall be kept on hand by the
state and in case of the failure OF
a bank, the state bank examiner shall
take charge Of its affairs and pay off
the depositors out OF the guaranty
fund after which he shall proceed to
convert into cash the assets CT the
bank, using same to replace the
amount taken from the fund The sur
plus, il any, shall be used to pay off
bona fide creditors Of the bank and
after they are satisfied the stockhold-
ers, but the pill provides that the
guaranty fund shall have first lien
on the assets of the bank. Provision
is also made that it shall be the duty
If the bank examiner 20 inquire into
the standing, etc, Of every bank APP
plying for guarantee by the state and
that the acceptance Of such bank shall
be optional with the state examiner
Should any bank be found to be
in bad shape, it shall be given sixty
days in which to arrange its affairs
and in case this Is not done, it shall
be taken in charge by the state exam
iner as provided for by another bill.
The guaranty fund may be loaned
upon demand by the state bank exam
iner with the consent cf the governor
and comptroller general, taking as Sc
curity. county, school or municipal
bonds, or such bonds as may be quick
ly converted into cash may be pur-
chased by the examiner.
Mr.. Deem Is OF the opinion that the
passage Of this bill would greatly aid
in the restoration Of confidence, that
great deal Of money now boarded
would be brought into circulation. He
estimates tnat Is per cent Of the mon
ey in the state which ought to be
deposited is withheld from the banks
on account of the lack CT confidence.
He considers that his bill would pre-
vent runs" panics and boarding and
would be great benefit to the state
He realizes that Georgia has very few
bank failures but recalls that such
failures as do happen. fall very heay
lily upon the depositors.
