y SEA CAPTAIN IN TROUBLE.

How the Captain of the Schooner Annie
Collins Presented Forged Letter to
Secure an Engagement and Ran Away
with the VesseI-His Arrest Last Night
by Deputy Marshal Hall.
Capt. G. A. Fuller, of the schooner
Annie Collins, was arrested on board his
vessel yesterday afternoon by Deputy
United Sta;es Marshal Hall and was
lodged in Jail TO be taken to Norfolk for
an examination there upon the charge OF
running away with the schooner. 1t ap-
pears that the craft is owned by the Baker
Wrecking Company, of Norfolk. The
company was in need of a
Captain to command her, when
Fuller presented himself with
a letter of recommendation from a
reputable firm in Providence, r. l., which
was acceptable, and he was engaged.
The letter has since been proven forgery,
but by whom is not known.
Mr.. StOddart, a representative of the
company, arrived here yesterday morn
ing, and proceeded to investigate the mat
ter. He claims that Capt. Fuller wanted
to 90 aboard the vessel in Norfolk to
strengthen up things, but they did not sup
pose that he was going off with her
without the necessary authority. When
he arrived at the vessel the party in
charge refused to allow him aboard
until a message by telephone was
sent stating that be was all right. That
night Fuller got the schooner under weigh
and proceeded to sea, and the company
had no knowledge of her whereabouts I'M
til her arrival here was reported by tele-
graph as the Amy COLLEEN. The company
Immediately telegraphed to know lift was
not the Annie Collins, and received a re-
ply stating that this was the vessels name
and adding an explanation of the difficult
ty in which she was in. In the meantime
the Captain made an attempt to get away
from port with the vessel, but was over
hauled before she had reached Tybee.
The man@uvre was reported in the News
on Thursday.
1t Is now claimed that the YES
sells papers are all in the COM
nSny's possession at Norfolk and that
she is all right, that the Captain had
run away with her before he had any
right to her command, without the
authority of the company.
Mr.. StOddart also states that
in trading on the rivers and
along the coast of Virginia and the
Carolinas it is not unusual for vessels to
leave their papers in the owners offices
for safe keeping, instead of carrying them
aboard the vessel, except when they were
sent out of the State, and at such times
the Captain always carried his papers
with him. In this case be either betrayed
utter ignorance Or criminal intent, and
from his behavior, the belief among many
who have come in contact with him, is
that his mind is not altogether sound.

THE ACADEMY OF ARTS.

Mr.. Brandt's Arrival in Savannah-To
Direct Its Completion as Rapidly as
POssible-The Institution to be Opened
in the Fall.
The arrival of Mr.. Carl Brandt, Direc-
tor Of the Teltair Academy Of Arts and
Sciences. announced in the MORNING
NEWS yesterday, is an assurance
that the work Of finishing the
Academy Will be continued with
out further delay until its completion.
The principal changes in the interior of
the building have been made, and all that
now remains incomplete is the erection of
the Prize of the Parthenon, a valuable
and interesting work Of art, to be placed
in the main hall. and the colOring and
tinting Of the rooms suitable for the pur-
poses to which they will be adapted.
The color of the exterior of the building
will be renewed, the same color being adj
hered TO in accordance with the pro-
visions of the will of Miss Telfair. Over
the main entrance Will be the Inscription
''Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences"
The yard and grounds will also be beauti-
fed, and the stone statues which are in
cluded among Mr.. Brandt's purchases
Will be placed in front and facing Telfair
Place.
Mr.. Brandt is a guest at the residence
| of Gen. Henry K. Jackson, President of
the Georgia Historical Society. As soon
as practicable he will direct his attention
to the completion Of the Academy, and TO
its population with the works of art
which are now here and which will arrive
by the time the institution is ready to be
opened.
Mr.. Brandt expects to accomplish this
early IN the fall. Since his return from
! Europe, and during the time he has been
| in New York, he has prepared a large
number of the etchings and photographs,
which he brought with him ready
| for their place in the Academy.
/ This collection, he says, is one
/ OF the most interesting features of
| his purchase. and was made in all the
| principal capitals and art centres of Eu-
rope. All The paintings have arrived
with one exception, and Mr.. Brandt will
| see that they are placed in the Academy as
soon as it is ready for their reception.
The Board Of Managers have
| expended all the funds at present
available for the purchase of art works,
otherwise the fine painting of Niagara
| Falls by moonlight, by Christian Eisele,
which was exhibited during the Guards
| Fair, and which was universally admired,
| would doubtless adOrn the walls of the
| picture gallery. Mr.. Brandt is charmed
| with the painting and regretted
| his inability to purchase it for the
Academy. Only part of the statuary
| and casts included in the collection have
! arrived, the long time required to CON-
plete them rendering their arrival a mat
| ter Of several months yet. The fitting up
| OF the building will be the first work to
which Mr.. Brandt will direct his atten-
| zion, and as soon as this is finished, which
will be at as early a day as possible, the
! Academy will BE opened.
