Ask Authority
To Issue Bonds
For Gas COMPANY

Formal request for authority to is
sue receivers certificates amounting
30 S447, 400, was filed in the United
States district court Monday by W.
II. Fitzhugh, attorney fro the receiv-
ers. Practically all of the facts set
out in the petition heard by the late
Judge Mccall are contained in the
present plea and in addition it is
pointed out that increased cost of
manufacture has precluded the use
OF surplus revenue for repairs and
requirements.
The petition also points out that
the request is for emergency work
solely and that the appraisal will
doubtless be completed within 60
days and permanent rate of return
will be fixed by the state utilities
commission and that unless the urg-
ent repairs are made that the service
to both gas and electric consumers
of Memphis will be greatly endan-
gered during the coming winter.
Officials of the company express
the belief that their request will be
approved by Judge A. M. ]. Coch-
ran. ad interim Judge, and that there
will be little or no opposition on the
part of bondholders, trustees or
stockholders.

Roads Name Schulz
: Engineer To Plan
Bellevue ViQduct

The selection Of w. T.. Schulz. con-
sulting engineer, as representative Of
the five railroads interested in the
construction of a viaduct over the
railroad tracks at Bellevue boulevard,
was announced following a confer
erce held in the office Of the mayor
late Monday.
Representatives of the Frisco, the
Southern, Louisville & Nashville,
the Belt Line were present at the
meeting and while no decision was
reached as to whether or not the pro-
ject would take the form of a subway
or viaduct, Mr.. Schulz was instructed
to draw up the necessary plans and
work the matter out along the most
feasible lines and submit his efforts
to the railroads affected and to the
city. -.
Mayor Paine and Thomas H. Allen,
commissioner OF streets, bridges and
sewers, are confident that there will
be no difficulty In reaching anyagree-
ment and that, everything VIM Be in
readiness for work to begin some time
next spring.
1t is the city's' idea to have this
galway or viaduct completed as soon
as possible in order that the Cross
Town line Of the street railway COM
pany can continue out Bellevue to
connect with the Linden and suburE
han car lines and thereby open up a
vast territory to patrons of the street
railway company who are now COM
PEELED to go all the way down town
In order to transfer to other lines.
A number of conferences have been
held on this matter and Mayor Paine
has written many letters seeking to
bring the matter to a definite un-
Outstanding. The appointment Of
Mr.. Schulz as joint representative of
all the railroads affected is a big step
forward, in the mayors opinion, and
he anticipates little difficulty In an
early agreement being reached.

And instantly his attention Is arrested
by the great ruin, silent, misshapen,

TO. repair an oil painting which
shows blemishes, such as cracks, pro.
ceed as follows: Fill q shallow dish

does not actually touch the liquid. The
fumes from the alcohol rise to the
paint, and in few minutes the cracks
