Takes Over, or Absorbs the Charlotte Electric Railway and Greenville Traction Com pany Interesting Rumor From Greenville. Interesting Charlotte and Green ville (S. C.) alike is the report, which seems to be correct from what The News can learn to the effect that the Souuthem Public "Utilities Com pany will absorb the Greenville Trac tion Company .and the Charlotte Elec tric Railway Company, two of the affiliated compaies of the Southern Power or Southern Public Utilities Company. As the companies are part and par cel of the one big power coripany, their "taking over" simply means their absorption, they surrenderoing their charter and operating on the general charter of the Public Utilities Company. The change has been dis cussed in Greenville, so a party liv ing there tells the News, but beyond the general rumor he knows nothing Messrs. Lee ana Taylor are m New York, so thev could not be seen. " The Charlotte Electric Railway and the Greenville Traction Com yany have been operated, as each of the affiliated companies making up the grand whole of the Southern Power Company are, as separate and yet part of the big company a some what paradoxical distinction, but a distinction nevertheless.

Bishop Kilgo in the course of his remarks brought in several experiences which had been told him tending to prove that there are ministering spirits. The bishop again quoted the text: "Wherefore seeing we are compased about with so great a cloud of witnesses " etc. CIVIL COURT TODAY ON CASE OF FESPERiViAN VS. M'MAKAWAY GARAGE Civil :ouil, a two weeks' term of which was convened here yesterday morning by Judge V. J. ;dams, was occupied this morning mainly with the suit of W. D. Fesnerman against the McManaway Garage Company, in which the plaintiff seeks recovery of 1,000 alleged damages as the result of an autc-ralile accident. The plain tiff complains that 011 the day before last Christmas he hired an automobile from the garage company named above and made the trip thiough the country to Monroe, in Union county; that the chauffeur, who vo ke:l for thv McManaway people drove so reckless ly that the plaintiff was hurt by being bounced upward against a rod In the roof of the machine and loot several teeth. The defendant company seeks to prove that the plaintiff was responsi ble for the accident in that he kept urging the chauffeur to make more speed. The question for the jury, which got the case before noon today, is whether a garage comr-ny as the owner of an automobile is responsible for an accident that happens to a per son riding in the owner's machine and driven by the owner's chaffeur. Also whether if the fact that the plaintiff urged the chauffeur to make speed is established that would shift the re sponsibility to the man who hired the machine. Messrs. Stewart & McRae represent the plaintiff and Messrs. Newell & Newell the defendant.
