Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1881-06-17

In the Superior Court yesterday morning
Major Green, colored, was arraigned to
answer the charge Of murder. The trial
occupied the entire day, and resulted In
verdict of guilty Of voluntary man
slaughter, but, as usual, notice of motion
for a new trial was given. As Of interest,
we give the following brief particulars OF
the case:
This tragedy occurred on Christmas night,
last year, on the Thompson place, Ogeecnee
road, about fourteen miles from Savannah.
Green, who had been drinking very hard
became involved in a quarrel with
his wife and slapped her in the face and
cursed her. Francis Williams brother OF
the woman, who was present, interfered
and told Green that he should not beat his
sister, and urged him to let her alone, see
ing that the quarrel was becoming serious.
Green resented the interference and made
some remark to Williams. The men remained
talking few minutes, when Williams turn
ed suddenly and clasping his hand to his
left breast, said ''I'm badly cut, and start
ed off, but shortly fell to the ground and
expired. This was about the evidence
ELECTED at the Coroner's inquest, where one
of the witnesses also stated that he heard
Green say ed d-n him, I've cut him. /"
The Coroner's jury returned a verdict charg-
Ing Green with murder, and he was com
mitted to Jail. The grand jury of
the Superior Court found true bill against
him, and he was brought to trial Yesterday
as stated. The evidence elected under the
rigid cross examination OF the counsel diff
fered in some particulars from the meagre
testimony given at the Coroner's inquest,
but not very materially, and, as viii be
seen by the verdict rendered, the jury; on
which there were two colored men, con-
sidered that Williams had met his death at
Greene's hands,

Not Exnert Enough.

Yesterday morning William Smith, color
ed, was arraigned in the Police Court to
answer the charge Of attempting to rob
gentleman of his watch on the street about
quarter-past eleven o'clock on Wednesday
night. 1t appears that the young man
returned from the excursion TO Tybee about
half-past ten O'Clock, and hearing that
car would soon be along, took a seat In
doorway to wait for it, as he did not relish
walking out beyond the Park. The position
was comfortable, and, while waiting, he
dropped into a gentle doze. VIM. Smith
coming along and seeing him, thought he
was asleep, and attempted to jerk his watch
from his pocket. The intended victim was
not asleep, however. and making a grab for
the fellow secured him. He was TURF
ed over to Policeman Counihan and carried
to the barracks. The Mayor fined him ten
dollars or thirty days, and not being flush
William viii retire to the camp on the banks
Of Cuyler swamp.

Water supply : Some Suggestions
Regarding NJ.

Editor Morning NeaCs: The very general
and just complaint regarding the inefficient
supply Of water for many necessary pur-
poses prompts the writer to suggest the fol-
lowing additional measures for promoting
this desirable object. Il Is well known that
there are ordinances Of the city forbidding
the use of water for sprinkling the streets,
except for certain number of hours each
day. These ordinances are constantly VIC
lated, and quantity of water used for this
purpose much beyond the limit Of its pro-
vision. Watering the streets should be
done late In the evening, or early in the
morning, and not during the heat of the
day, when the hot sun favoTs a rapid gen
Grafton Of steam vapor from the moist and
impure soil.
would suggest that the street sprinklers
be required to obtain water for this purpose
direct from the river, and thereby greatly
lessen the demand on the quaHtitY furnished
through the reservoir. The erection OF a
small pumping apparatus, with a distinct
set of pipes leading from the river to the
heads of the several savers, would also
enable us to obtain all necessary supply of
water to flush and water our large sewers
daily, a measure OF the greatest sanitary
importance to the city. This subject de-
mands our most earnest attention.

The paving of BroughtOn street.

Active measures are being taken in regard
to the paving of that portion OF Broughton
street between Bull and Abercorn, and we
trust shortly to be able to announce the
commencement OF this important work,
which will not only improve the street, but
will greatly enhance the value of property
fronting thereon. Under the resolution
adopted by Council at its last meeting, the
city will enter upon the work bearing one
third the expense. A list vas being cir
culated yesterday for the signatures OF
property owners between the limits
named, and from the favor with which the
proposed movement is received we doubt
not that every one will sign promptly and
willingly. The cost will be two dollars per
square yard, and the expense to each prop
erty owner between $3.50 and $50.

A Boy Narrowly Escapes Drowning
In Attempting TO Save His Dog.


Yesterday afternoon number of boys,
among whom were Frank Thomson, son
of Mr.. F. Fl. Thomson, the popular Audi
tor Of the Central Railroad, and the sous of
Policemen Heidi and Bennett, visited the
canal short distance from the city for the
purpose of swimming the dog belonging to
the former. The little purp was thrown
into the water, AID after houndering about
showed evidence of weakness, and fearing
that he would drown young Thomson
ran out upon timber raft to save his pet.
As be clutched his dog he lost his balance
and fell into the water, and undoubtedly
would himself have been drowned but for
the promptness of young Heidi and Ben
nett, who jumped In, and, after considerable
difficulty, succeeded in dragging the half
unconscious youth safely to the bank. He
had the purp clasped in his arm at the
time. We are informed that this is the
fourth escape from drowning that young
Thomson has had, and he will probably in
future be very careful about playing around
rivers and canals.

Yesterday afternoon, whilst John
Mcdonald was hauling ice from Haywood's
fee house to the Central Railroad depot, he
met with a singular and painful accident.
As he was driving by the corner of West
Broad and Bay streets the dray fell into an

the driver off, the wheel Of the heavy
loaded vehicle passing over his legs, bruising
them badly, but breaking no bones. He was

The British bark Yizcaya, Capt. Butler,
now at this port from Plymouth, England,
via Wilmington, North Carolina, has some
thing Of history. and is probably the old
est vessel in this port. As her name
would indicate, she was originally a
vessel, but was abandoned in the
