EXTENSION OF
UNUSED POWER
RIGHTS ASKED
Georgia-AIabama Power Com
pany Representatives Appear
Before Council

An extension of the franchise
granted a year ago to the Georgia
Alabama Utilities, the distributors of
hydro-electric power at Albany, and
which will expire on May 10, because
the concern has not complied with its
terms on May Is, because the con-
Germ has not complied with it's terms
by entering Americas with service,
was asked by the city council last
night by 7. II. Miner, attorney, and
L. l.. Ferree, general manager of the
GeOrgia-Alabama Power company,
who appeared before that body at
its regular session.
The council referred the matter
to the light committee for action,
with the understanding that until
report was reached the franchise will
not lapse.
Mr.. Miner spoke first for the pow
err concern. He stated that the COM
pany had been disappointed in not
be able to do in the last year the
work it had intended and hoped to do,
but declared its troubles were pure
ly matters Of finance. he asked the
indulgence of the City of Americas
and the granting of an extension OF
rights.
We feel that we have done won
ders, as it is" said he, ''in view of
financial conditions as they have
been for the last year, to complete
the Flint river plant. We feel that
IN the next twelve months the whole
problem Will be worked out and that
we VIII be IN position to be in here
ana so that Americas will be eniov-
ing the privileges of hydro-eleetric
rates All we can do is beg for the
extension"
mayor Sheppard asked Mr.. Miner
II ne did not think it proper for the
! company to give some kind of a Quar-
antee, in case an extension was
granted, having failed to meet the
Ilme requirements under the fran
chlse already granted. Mr.. Miner
stated that inasmuch as it was purely
a question of financing it would he

We are extremely anxious to get
IN here said he, Just as anxious
as you are to have US. We have pow
er to sell; the water is now going
over the dam and bringing us in no
revenue until we distribute it and sell
1t. 1t is the distribution that we
now must finance"
Mr. Terrell declared it a matter
OF mutual interest to the city and
company that it get into Americas,
and said the company hoped soon to
complete arrangements to make the
necessary extensions. If you extend
this franchise, said he sit will help US
to get the necessary finances, but if
you do not we will not be able to get
| 1t, because we won't have anything
to show the capitalists when we go
to them asking for money"
1t was called to his attention that
the old franchise was granted to the
Georgia-Alabama Utilities He stat
ed that this was the name of the
distributing company, but that it had
been acquired by the Georgia-Ala-
bama Power company and the grant
ing of franchise to the latter named
concern would be perfectly satisfac-
tory.

MURGNIk, CAPTIVE; EXECUTED, BELIEF
 IN MEXICO CITY

Mexico City, Nov. 1-(By The A. P.)-Genera1 Francisco Murguia, arch enemy of President Oregon for many years and one of the men who took part in the flight that brought death to former President Cara nZa, has fallen into the hands of federal troops and his career as a dangerous rebel is thought to have come to an end.
 With the little band of followers who are the remnant of his most re- cent rebel army, General Murgula was surrounded yesterday near Durango City and captured, it was announced last night at the presidents office. Whether he will be taken to Durango City for trial by court martial or be brought to the capital and publicly executed has not yet been determined. Recently he was described by Presl- dent Obregon as mot a soldier, but a fugitive from justice"
 For @ long while General Murguia has been credited with brewing a revo- Iution. Two months ago he left his hiding place across the Rio Grande and came back into Mexico at the head of rebel army said to number 800 men. Three weeks ago his forces were decisively defeated in a clash with troops under General Escebar at Gl1arache in the state of Durango. Since then he has carefully avoided meeting federal troops. From time to time there were reports that ne was trying to unite his rebels with those of Juan Carrasco in the state of Sina1oa and the men under carlos Green in Tabasco, but nothing ever came of these moves.
 The rebellious activities of General Murguia never aroused popular sym pathy, except in the northern regions Carranza. he cultivated many adher- ants
