CHILD AWARDED
. T0M0THERFOR
TEN YEARS
Then Father Gets It-0etter Dr.
vorce Case Ends With Un-
usual Decision.

An unusual verdict in which the
child is awarded to the mother for a
period of ten years with the provision
that the father shall be allowed to
see and have the child for two hours
on the first and third Sundays of
each month was handed down in the
divorce suit of Rudolph Deter, an
electrical engineer of East Point
against Mrs. Mary Odessa Smith Oct
ter in Judge Pendleton's division of
the Superior Court.
According to the further specifica-
tons of the jury the child, a boy .
years old, shall be delivered to the
custody of the father at the end of
ten years.
In addition to the decision in re-
gard to the custody of the child the
jury removed the disabilities of both
father and mother, granting each a
total divorce as prayed for in the
original petition filed by the father
and cross-bill and answer filed by
the mother.
The verdict of the jury closes the
last chapter in a case which created
sensation about year ago. AC-
cording to the petition, Deter filed
suit for divorce in January, 1912, four
years after the marriage. Later the
child was awarded to the custody of
the mother who filed a cross bill
charging Deter with cruelty.
In the following September, accord
ing to the petition of Mrs. Deter, her
husband came to the house and kid
mapped the child taking it to the home
of his sister in Griffin.
On petition of Mrs. Deter, her hus-
band was then ordered to Jail for
ten days for contempt of court. Oct
ter claimed in his answer that he
had taken the child from it's mother
only after he had discovered that it
was being neglected He prayed for
the leniency of the court.

Railroad Commission Gives Troll
ley Company Right to Appeal
in Six Months.

The Railroad Commission has re-
fused in part and granted in part
the petition Of the Georgia Railway
and Power Company, fixing its pas
senger and freight rates over its new
Stone Mountain line.
The rate to Decatur, which is 10
cents on the express cars, Is approved,
but the rate to Stone Mountain is
fixed ct 20 cents rather than 80, the
rate fixed by the company in its pc
tition.
The freight rates as prayed for are
granted, which makes them the same
as fourth class rates on the railroad
the commission also changed the
proposed rates to other points along
the line. but in doing this it readjust-
ed tie proposed rate zones.
AS finally granted, the rates author
lied are as follows: From Atlanta
to Decatur, 10 cents; to Scottdale, 10
cents; TO Charleston, 10 cents; TO
Mount Zion, 20 cents, and to Stona
Mountain, % cents.
The petition to fix Communication
rates was dismissed, the commission
holding that it had no authority to
fix rates other than to say what The
maximum rate shall be. Any rate
less than the maximum rate named
by the commission may be adjusted
at the roads discretion.
The commission also declined to
permit the road to charge fares with
out providing for some baggage &C.
commodation in addition. Baggage
In addition to passenger service will
be permitted a reasonable extent, but
the baggage with each fare shall not
exceed $50 pounds without extra COM
pensation.
The petition originally filed by the
power company was bitterly fought
by the residents along the line and
the result is highly gratifying 70
them The order likely will be ac-
cepted by the company without pro-
test, but as experimental for six
months only.
The commission calls upon the
power company for a detailed state
ment of the cost of the new line, and
its operation. 1t also authorizes the
company to reopen the question Of
rates after six months operation of
the new line, in order that injustices,
IL found to exist, may be righted.
