City Railways Turnout Dispute Prompts Removal Order
At a city street railway committee session, the Atlanta Rapid Transit Company faced orders to remove a partially built turnout on Hunter Street between Washington and Piedmont avenues. The committee urged the company to apply for any future turnout on its Grant Park line, while considering joint track use and condemning none, with city funds to relaid pavement if needed. The meeting reflected tensions between the transit and power firms over track rights and municipal control. Dr King’s New Discovery touted as a universal cure for respiratory ailments, with strong claims of effectiveness and large bottle pricing.
