franchise is granted to the Tidewater,
the Birmingham Railway, Light and
Power company intends to take the
matter into the courts and eudeaVor to
keep that company from using its
tracks. II has been stated that a
threatened suit of this kind is what
induced the financial back ers of George
Kelley and associates to withdraw at
the last moment and compel the kef-
leys TO forfeit their franchise.
Officials of the Tidewater company.
however, are confident of winning the
case against the Birmingham Railway,
Light and Power company and are.
therefore, urging upon the commission
that a franchise be granted them. With
the granting of the franchise the COM
missioners would pass an ordinance per
hitting the Tidewater to use the Bir-
Iningham Railway, Light arid Power
company tracks for certain fixed COM
pensation and under certain regula-
Iions.
The fight would then be on between
the two railway companies and if the
lidewater wins it is generally believed
that they viii proceed at once to con-
struct a general street car system
