NEW RAILROAD RESTAURANT.
The Dining Hall in Course of ErectiOi
at the S, +. 6 W. Depot.

The Dining Hall in Course of Erection
at the S, f. & W. Depot.
The Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway Company a few weeks ago di-
rected its architect, Mr.. Albert F. Cart
Der, to prepare plans for building suit
able for dining hall and restaurant at
the depot in this city. The plan upon be-
ing submitted was approved and Mr..
Moffatt, one OF the ca penters employed
by the company, was placed in
charge of the erection of the
structure. Work was begun about three
weeks ago, and it is expected that the
building will be ready tor occupancy
about the middle of December. II is To-
Gated on the east side Of the platform
leading TO the passenger depot, and is a
One-stOry wooden structure So feet in
length, 81 feet in width, including two
platforms, each about 4 feet wide, on the
east and west sides, and II feet in the
C ear betwt en- the floor and ceiling. The
structure is divided into five apartments
store room, pantry, kitchen, dining sa-
loon and lunch room. The ceiling and
walls Will be piastered, and a course of
wainscOtting, about four feet in height
above the floor, will relieve the appear
ance OF the interior. The window castings
will be of Georgia pine and black walnut,
bearing raised medalliOns of walnut and
pine at the upper corners Of each window
on Jhe inside. The building is IN the cot
tage style of afchitec ture, and similar in
general appearance to the dining saloon at
Waycross, though some of the exterior
woodwork is of newer design.
The privileges of the structure have
been leased by the company to an OK
perienced caterer, who is expected to
arrive here about the time the building is
to be finished. The exterior color OF the
building will be French gray, relieved by
contrasting cOlors on the trimmings and
bracket ornaments.

Although the space is somewhat limited
and much smaller than that of some other
States, il is in one of the most eligible lC-
cations in the entire building. Its dimen-
sIOns are 100 feet front along the main
aisle shown in the cut, with depth of so
feet. The main aisle is II feet wide and
the side aisles seven feet. Adjoining it
in the rear is the space occupied by Mis-
sissippi and Tennessee. On one side is
Arkansas, and in front, across the aisle
and on tho other side, is West Virginia
and the display of the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia and the Clncin-
natl. New Orleans and Texas Pacific
Railroads.
The railing will be about three feet in
height and will be built in sections eight
feet in length, each section being OF diff
feTent pattern and separated by carved
posts. The work was designed by John
J. Newt as a contribution to the eX-
hibIt, and INTELLECTUALLY will be one Of
the finest pieces of ornamental woodwork
ever built In the South. The different Sec
tiOns will include an inlaid panel in the
centre, with a railing of different woods,
the whole work being carved and polished
and finished in the natural wood without
paint or varnish. The entrance, of Geor-
gia marble in the shape of the State coat
Of arms, has already been fully described
in the NEWS. The wood work is being
done By the mills in Savannah and will
be finished by the first of next week,
when it will be forwarded with the other
features of the exhibit to New Or
leans. Mr.. Pratt, the director in charge

Day in the Clerks and Sher;f7s
Ofdces.

IN THE HANDS OF THE JURY.
Trial OF Capt. Dyer in the United States
Courts for Cruelty to a Negro Sailor
The Jury Unable to Agree.

Capt. Frank E. Dyer, Of the schooner
NJ. B. Mlllen, was placed On trial in the
United States d strict Court yesterday
afternoon before Judge Boarman for
violating section 5347 Of the Revised
Statutes in unduly and unwarrantably
inficting punishment upon Noah Willis,
cOlOred, the steward of the schooner and
one Of the crew. The trial of the case
occupied the entire day. District At
toruey Darnell conducted the prosecution,
and J. J. Abrams, Esq, appeared
for the defense. There were two cases
against Capt. Dyer, one for maltrea tment
on the high seas, and the other for NAL
treatment in the Savannah river. The
cases were consolidated by agreement,
and the charges appeared as two counts in
the information.
The evidence was similar to that given
before United states Commissioner Beck
EFT at the preliminary examination on
Wednesday last, except that which rela-
ted to the occurrences in the river, on
which point testimony was ! OF taken
before the Commissioner. Willis was the
chief witness for the prosecution, and the
proof of the prosecution was that he was
assaulted and ironed by the Captain when
near Savannah, and irOned and put in the
laZarcttO for refusing TO sign articles.
The Captain testified that the reason he
tried to make the negro sign articles was
that he knew he was not complying with
the law unless be got his signature. Will
lis was kept in the laZarettO half an hour.
In the river ne was chained and gagged,
and taken before the Magistrate in chains.
1t was claimed by the defense that Will
lis was only ironed and gagged TO silence
his cries, and also claimed that the pro-
ceedings could not include what took
place in the Savannah river, because ne
had then been paid off aud had ceased TO
be one Of the crew. The defense asked
the court to charge on this point. The
case was argued at length.
Judge BOarman, in his charge, held
that Willis must be considered one of the
crew from the time he went on the vessel
until he left her. The chief point to be
decided by the jury was, whether the
punishment inflicted was necessary. The
act of Congress cOntemplates undue
punishment by master out of malice,
hatred or revenge. If the punishment
went beyond punishment necessary for
discipline, then it was malicious because
wrongful.
At midnight the jury had not agreed.
They bad taken possession of the court
room, and there is no likelihood of a YER
dict being reached before tomorrow.
Judge BOarman had gone to bed. Some
of the jurors were asleep on the floor of
the court room, and others were engaged
in a lively discussion over the case. It
was reported that the jury stood : to for
conviction.

AMONG THE MARKET GARDENERS.

The Effects of the Drought on the Truck
Farms-The Need of Rain to Save the
Crops.
The protracted dry weather which pre-
vailed in this section of the country for
several weeks caused serious forebodings
among the truck farmers in the vicinity
of the city, lest there would not be mois-
ture enough in the soil to assure the full
development of vegetables before frost.
The recent rains, however, have dispelled
the apprehensiOns.
A NEWS reporter called upon several
gardeners yesterday. Among the Yege-
tables which most needed rain were
turnips, beets, radishes, celery, cab
bages and endive, the former less than
the others for the reason that they hal
fully matured on majority of the farms.
Perhaps the vegetable most in need
CT moisture was the cabbage,
upon which a great deal of time, money
labor and land is annually given by the
growers for both local and Northern
markets. 1t is estimated that over $4,000
cabbages along the line of the Thunder
bolt road east of the city would have been
stunted in growth, if not ruined, if the
side of the city is limited compared to that
on the west side. 1t is roughly
estimated that at least 200, coo cabbages,
besides other vegetables, are being grown
in the county west of the city. The value
of the crop can be readily calculated by
any one who is in the habit of purchasing
these products. In the market yesterday
cabbages were retailed at 10 cents head,
or two heads for 10 cents.

Advertising is good, but an eXtraOrdi-

discovered. We find that our customers
are our best advertisements. Their salts
acti on with our goods is too apparent,
hence every suit sold brings US two or
three new customers-the latter invaria-
bly, are surprised to find ''ready-made"
goods of such fine materials, and so well
made up. Our stock is never allowed to
''run down at the heel" and is as COM
plete to-day by replenishing, as it was at
the beginning of the season; in fact there
are more attractions than ever, including
a new supply of fine dress suits in four
button cutaways, all shades, black, blue,

Although we have all sizes, large and

a Mistake Corrected.

QUITMAN, GA, Nov. 2S.-Edit0r Norm
ing NelgS: left Savannah last night on
business. This afternoon L was more
than surprised to find my name mentioned
in the NEWS as a possible seeker after
the office of Collector of the port of Sa-
vannah. This is the first time l ever
heard of my name used in connection
with that office.
l am not a candidate and never have
been, and any use Of my name for said
office is totally unauthorized. / would
not and could not accept the office if it
were rendered to me. l feel that an in
justice has been done me in mentioning
my name in the matter. You are sufi-
GENTLY acquainted with me to know that
do not want such an office.
Respectfully, b. A. DENMARK.
The mention of Mr.. Denmark's name
in the article referred to was entirely
mistake and resulted from a misunder-
standing of the reporter. Mr.. Denmark's
name had not been heard of in connection
with the office of Collector of Customs in
street gossip or in any other way.-ED.l
