HON. |. R, AKIN TALKS ON
NEW ". 8 A, COMMISSION
SAYS THEY HAVE NO POWER TO
EXTEND LINE TO SEA AT
PRESENT TIME.

When seen by a News reporter
upon his return from Atlanta yester
day, Hon. l.. r. Akin, representative
from Glynn county, stated that the
w. & A. commission created at the
last session of the Legislature had nc
power to either negotiate for the pur
chase of the A. b. & A. or to ex
tend the w. & A. to the sea at this
time
The senate SO amended the bill,
said Mr.. Akin, that all the commits
sion is empowered to do is to make a
recommendation regarding the leas
ing of the w. & A., as the section re
lating to the purchase of the A. B
& A. or the extention of the w. &
A. to the sea, was cut out by the
senate"
AT the next session of the legis
lature, continued Mr. Akin, 81 will
offer an amendment covering the
points, but until that time no action
can be taken in the matter"
This information will be received
with keen disappointment in the city
as the Board of Trade, as well as cit
lens generally, were preparing tc
make strong fight to have Bruins
wick made the Atlantic terminus o.
the Western and Atlantic.

a thorough search III Springfield and
many surrounding towns blythe police
no trace has been found of Lauda,
the l5-yearold daughter iof II. IA

CLAIM MACHINE SOLD
BY Representative
AGENT SELLS AUTOMOBILE BUT
FAILS TO SETTLE WITH
HIS COMPANY.

The Richards Auto Company. of Sa-
as well as 10 H. Mason, of this city,
would like to locate just at this time
one Mr.. Brown, who, several months
ago, sold to the local man, hand
some Case automobile, and, according
to the claim of the Savannah company
put the money In his pocket and left
for parts unknown.
1t seems that three or four months
ago this Mr. Brown came to Bruins.
wick, in the handsome Case car, say
ing that he was representative of
the Savannah agency. After spending
several days =. here, advertising the
Case cars, he disposed of the sam
pie car which he came in, to Mr.
Mason. something like $4,000 being
the price involved.
Nothing more was heard or thought
of the sale until few days az !.
when the Savannah agency claimed
the car, saying that Brown was not
a representative Of their agency and
that the company held a mortgage
on the car. Consequently they $ -
cured the necessary papers to gain
possession OF themachine. Mr.. Ma
son, however, was not that easy. He
did not surrender the Case, as the Sa-
yannah company expected he would,
but rather gave the necessary bond
and Is still in possession of the ma
chine, and the indications are that
he will be when the case Is finally
settled In the courts.
The real truth Of the matter seems
TO be that Brown was the acknowle1 Z
ed representative or the Savannah
agency that he was sent to Bruins
wick and this section to advertise
the Case cars, that he was authoriz
ed to sell the car in which he was
travelling but his company did not in
tend for him to sell the car, take the
money and skip out.
Just why it has taken three OF
four months to discover that Brown
never made return for the car If
not known, as the Savannah agency
could have easily learned that the
machine was in this city At any
rate the agency will not find 1t such
an easy task to recover the machine
as Mr.. Mason intends to fight the
case to me end. and furthermore he
is going to remain in possession ol
