Plan for Commercial Congress.
Miss Taylor Married—Per
sonals and Uriels.
(Special to The Richmond Virginian.)
PETERSBURG, VA„ August 16
It is not definitely known when the
Board of Aldermen and Council of
Petersburg will meet to elect a succes
sor to the lnte mayor. William M.
t Jones, it is thought, however that this i
will be done in a short lime. In the
meantime. Carter R Bishop, president
of the Board of Aldermen, is acting
mayor of the city.
Among those mentioned for the po- '
sition there seems to be but one who
has practically the endorsement of all '
the people, and his election Is almost
assured - Mr. K. if. Patterson.
Mr. Patterson is a young business
man. has been connected many years
with the American Tobacco Company,
and is recognized I) jail as a strong,
conservative, active man, with execu
tive ability. Buclt a mayor Is greatly
desired, and if the position be tendered
Mr. Patterson—and it is practically as- j
sured— tt will i ome to him in recoghl
I tion of his Ability, for he as In no man- >
her sought the office.
Mr. Patterson is tin son of Captain
John R. Patterson, a Confederate offi
I cer, whose name has been long identi
fled with the history of Petersburg.
Discuss Plans.
Officials of the Southern Commercial
Congress met Monday night in Peters
; burg regarding the conference of rep
; resentative business men—ten from
; each Southern State, to be appointed
: by the governors—which is .to be held
i In Atlanta October 7. Mr. <’haries Hall
Davis. chairman of the executive eom
| mittee; G. Grosvenor Dawe, director;
Edwin 1- Quarles, secretary, and Dr.
1 Clarence J. Owen, of Alabama, enm
j missioner of agriculture and immigra
tion of the Southern Commercial Con
gress. were present.
Dr. Owen resigned the presidency of
the State College of Alabama to co
i operate and take an active part in the
work of the Commercial Congress. He
is also the commander-in-chief of the
Sons of Confederate Veterans and edi
tor of tlie organization's magazine.
Dr. Owen arrived in Washington
Sunday night from Alabama, joining
Mr G. Grosvenor Da we there. To
gether they came to Petersburg Mon
day for the conference. Mr. Quarles
returned to Petersburg from Georgia
; Saturday.
Dr. Owen and Mr. base left tthis
city for Washington Tuesday.

FLOOR PLAN OF OAR.
During the month of September, new cars of the Pay-As-You-Rnter type will be
put into operation on the Broad-Main line. In adopting this type of car the company
has three principal objects in view:
First: The prevention of accidents to passenger? entering or leaving car.
Second: The facilitation of the collection of fares by the conductor, enabling him
the more closely to attend to the operation of the car.
Third: The elimination of pushing and crowding, by keeping the conductor out of
the car and by providing separate doors for entrance and exit of passengers.
Pav-As-You-Enter cars arc being adopted as standard in all of the larger and more
progressive cities in this country, fifty different companies in the l nited States now
operating over six thousand cars of this tv|)C. and the records prove the great success,
both from the companies’ standpoint and the standjKiint of the patrons. It is believed
ihat the above results ran lie fully realized here if the company ha* the co-operation
of its patrons in the observation of a few simple rules, as follows:
1. Passengers are requested to have exact amount of fare ready, cash or tickets.
2. Passengers will enter only hv rear platform at point marked “entrance’’ on
car and follow the direction of the arrow on the above drawing.
3. Passengers will deposit the exact amount of cash fare or ticket in fare box and
pass into car through the entrance door.
4. Transfers will be handed unfolded to conductor and not deposited in fare box.
5. Passengers needing change or tickets will receive the full amount of change or
tickets from the conductor, out of which passengers will deposit fare in fare box.
6. Transfers will be asked for at time of depositing fare in fare box.
7. Passengers desiring change, tickets or transfers are requested kindly to allow
those with exact fare and not needing transfers to pass in first, thus facilitating
the movement into the car.
g. Conductors are not required to change bills of larger denominations than $2.00.
9. Standing on rear platform will not be allowed, as it blocks entrance and exit.
10. No baggage or bundles will be allowed on the platform. If too bulky to be
taken inside, baggage will not be allowed to be taken on car.
11. Passengers desiring to leave car w ill use front door as far as possible.

"The matter has not been brought to
the attention of the Cornmiaaion." said
Judge William F. Rhea Tuesday. '•It
w-ill no doubt be taken up by the Har

Judge Rhea seemed very much sur

but because the situation has not yet
been brought up officially would not
say what would likely be done.
The Installation of a new president
has been given by the Baltimore and

for the delay in starting the work at
