Urged by Phone Case

The findings of Arthur Heyman,
special master in the case of the
Fidelity Trust Company, of Roches-
ter, against the Atlanta Telephone
and Telegraph Company, filed Satur-
day in the Federal Court, bore the
significant recommendation that the
telephone company pay the plaintiff
company the sum of 1909, 900, which
is the principal of its gold mortgage
bonds and interest
The recommendation also specified
that foreclosure be ordered if the pay
ment is not made.

age Believed To Be Covered
by Insurance.

JACKSONVILLE, Jan. 17.-Losses
near 100000 We're estimated by eX-
perts late tonight resulting from the
fire which has ragged in the Atlantic
Coast Line warehouses since early
this afternoon.
1t is believed that the damage will
be fully covered by insurance.
The origin of the fire is a mystery.
With hardly any warning, the flames
burst out in the export warehouses on
Tallyrand avenue, and within a few
minutes they had gained formidable
Roadway. The only theory is that it
started from a spark emitted by a
passing locomotive.

Couture Will be Held to
Contract; Kid Taylor is
Picking Many Live Ones

Rumors that Couture will not cavort
about the initial hassock for the Vir-
ginians this year are denied by the
owners of the club.
According to Ed. Finch, magnate,
Couture is willing to report when the
Virginians begin training, but desires
that his contract specify that he will
receive SO per cent of the sale price
in case he is purchased by another
club.
Virginia will hold Couture to his
original contract" said Mr.. Finch
yesterday. ITO change the players
contract as he suggests would be es-
tablishing a poor precedent. A club
of this kind cannot afford to make
such terms"
It is understood that the first sack
er has been offered tempting propo-
sitions by other clubs. One report
had Couture among the Federals, but
the player asserts he is not inclined
that way.
4 Kid Taylor sends the encouraging
information that he is signing some
good timber. He has number of
promising youngsters on the list.
Eighteen players already have sworn
allegiance to the Kid. Taylor will be
