Commission
ON WATER QUESTION
Citizens Assured That I'm
pure Water Will Not
Be Sold

Not until the city assures itself that the
North Birmingham water is good will the
city supply in that territory be turned on
again. That was the assurance given a
delegation of North Birmingham citizens
yesterday by President Exum of the COM
mission at the regular meeting. Citizens
of North Birmingham, including Mr.. Cole
Mr.. Macarthur and others, appeared be-
fore the body. The water of the city
plant was approved by some, while Mr..
Macarthur said the citizens wanted good
water first, it matters not from whom i
comes.
Mr.. Exum, after the citizens finished,
said the plant was shut down now and
they were getting Cahaba river water of
tho Birmingham WaterworlSs company.
He said the plant would remain down, SO
far as he was concerned, until pure water
could be secured and sold to the people.
The citizens said that was all they
wanted.
The city, following the analysis by the
Birmingham Waterworks company of It's
supply in that section, closed down the
Plant Immediately. That is the second
time the plant was shut down on account
of impure water. The commissioners as
sured one resident of the suburb that no
idea was entertained by the commission
ers of disposing of the plant there to the
waterworks company.

T|DEWATER HELD To
Be STREET RAILWAY
BY BOYD IN OPINION
TO THE commission
Entitled to Profit by Law
Requiring Other Lines
to Allow Use of
Tracks
DOES NOT THINK IT
HAS RIGHT TO 80 YEAR
FRANCHISE RIGHTS
City Engineer Instructed to Report
Upon the Engineering Practica-
bility of the Tidewater Using
the Tracks of the B.
r., L. & P. Co.

In an opinion to the commissioners yes
terday, Capt. Romaine Boyd held that the
Tidewater line was a street railway
and was therefore entitled under its fran
chise to profit by the provisions of the
statute requiring other lines to permit
the Tidewater to use constructed lines for
operations.
The opinion of the city attorney also
held that the Tidewater was inspired to
style itself street railroad to benefit
by the SO year franchise clause. He does
not think the company is entitled to such
franchise rights.
The Birmingham Railway, Light and
Power company suggested that the Tide.
water was railroad" and not street
raili ioad' seeking to deny that company
the use of its tracks. 1t was pointed
out yesterday that the Birmingham Rail-
way, Light and Power company is char
tered as a railroad.
The opinion was filed and the city en-
gineer instructed to report upon the en-
sineering practicability of the Tidewater
using the Birmingham Railway, Light
and Power company tracks as requested
Boyd's Opinion
The opinion of Captain Boyd in part
follows:
February II.
THE Board of Commissioners, City:
"Gentlemen:-In the matter of the power
of the city to grant the Birmingham
Ensley and Bessemer Railroad company
| a right of way over the tracks of the
Rirna ,UI,o M y3oi oh
company. section 1867 of the code of Ala
bama reads as follows: ny
" 1857. Street railroads may run ovei
tracks of one another. Any street rail
road company, operating it's faSroad by
! steam, electric, or other power, shall have
the right and may be required by the
council, to run its cars over the tracks
of any other street railroad company, III
whole or in part, in said city under such
rules and regulations as may be Pc
scribed by ordinance, l.. the payment
by the company so using the tracks OF
another of just compensation for the use
thereof. and the council shall pass such
ordinances as may be necessary to carry
this provision into effect
In determining this question. it is
therefore necessary to first decide wheth-
er or not the Birmingham, Ensley and
Bessemer Railroad company is a street
railroad company within the meaning OF
section 1867 OF the code.
1.-THE charter powers of the Birmingham
Ensley and Bessemer Railroad company
are defined in part as follows To carry
on a general railroad, navigation and
transportation business; to carry on a
general interurban railway business for
the transportation of packets, mail, ex-
press, freight and passengers; to carry
