Co>rINUOUs GALES AT SEA.

The City of Savannah" Encounters vi
client Weather-Tbe Schooner "Charles
r. Gibson" Total Wreck and Aban-
doned In the Breakers-Wreck of the
Ada Z. Crockett"
The New York steamer ''City of Savan-
nah" arrived in port yesterday morning,
after an unusually stormy experience.
She came through without any accident,
and sustained no injuries. Her passengers
were glad to get ashore, and looked happy
when they got on the wharf. One of them
said to a NEWS reporter: I've didn't
have an hours smooth sea the entire trip.
It was blowing when We left New York
bay and il didn't let up till we got inside
of Tvbee roads, The vessel showed the
marks Of the waves on her deck houses
aud smoke stack. but WAS not damaged.
The steam tug John ". Lynn. with the
steam lighter Lara, left the city yesterday
morning with a complement of men for
the stranded schooner Charles +. Gibson
on Warsaw beach, carrying bags for the
purpose of sacking and Iightering
her cargo of bulk guanO and
II endeavOr to get the vessel of.
When the tug arrived alongside the wreck
il was found that she had filled completely
with water, and had settled in the sand
and bilged, having pounded very hard
during the night. Nothing could be done
TO save either the vessel or cargo, and
the men accordingly wrecked her,
stripping her of all her sails, light
spars and anchors and available proper
Is. The Captain and crew, eight IN num-
Der, were taken aboard the tug, which re-
turned to the city last night about II
O'Clock, with the lighter in tow.
The schooner was abandoned al Iiimnai
in the breakers. The Captains reasons
for getting into warsaw sound
was that be mistOOk the coast lights. He
mad previously had very rough weather
on the entire voyage, a portion OF which
he was in the Gulf stream. In coming IN
shore the weather was thick, and with
the aid Of his glass he could barely dis
Germ light, which proved Afterwards TO
he Tybee light. but which he mistOOk for
Martins Industry. He was farther
of shore than he thought, and when
he came down to the southwark TO make
Tybee. his mistake Of the lights brought
him into Warsaw under fair wind and
tide ana drove him upon the breakers.
The vessels cargo was consigned to G.
: Ellis. and was fully insured. The yes
sci is owned by r. f. c. Hartley, Of SacO,
Ne. and is said to be fully covered by
marine risk.
A Washington dispatch TO the News
last night stated that the Signal station
at Portsmouth, y. c., reported the three
masted schooner Ada F. Crockett, from
Savannah to New York, lumber laden,
ashore six miles north OF Cherokee, y. c.,
on Monday night. The crew of seven
men were all saved. The vessel was
total loss.
The Crockett, Capt. ThOrndyke, was
CLEARED from Savannah on Wednesday,
Feb. II, by Messrs. Joseph \. Roberts Il
Co. for New York, with 334, 400 feet pitch
pine lumber, shipped by Messrs. James
X. Clarke & co. She sailed last Friday.
The vessel was 412 6-100 tons burthen
and was owned in ROckland, Me.

AN ALLEGED DEFAULTER.

4 Mitchell County Postmaster Under
Arrest-COnflict Between the AuthOri-
ties.
The authorities of Georgia and Of the
United States were brought into conflict
at Camilla, in Mitchell county, yesterday
in the case OF Charles A. Roles, late Post
mast of that place, who is charged by one
of his bondsmen with having defaulted.
A warrant was recently issued for Roles
arrest by United States Commissioner S.
VI. Griffin, of Quitman, and placed in the
HANDS of Deputy Marshal w. A. Mcneil,
of Quitman, by Marshal Wade for
service. Mcneil went to Camilla
on Monday and placed Roles under
arrest, but before he got his prisoner
away, the latter's friends procured a writ
of habeas corpus from the local authOri-
ties, and an effort was made by local Off
GERS TO take the prisoner out of the hands
of the Marshal. Mcneil telegraphed Dis
trict Attorney Darnell for instructions,
and was directed to hold the prisoner I'M
til the Attorney could get to Camilla to
represent the United States. Mr.. Darnell
lert Savannah on Monday night, arriving
in Camilla yesterday morning, but no fur
ther information has been received re-
garding the case.
A. Mr.. Spence, who is one of Roles
bOndsmen, had the warrant issued for his
arrest, and charges that his defalcation
will amount to about 5000.

IMPROVING IRIS LINES

The City and Suburban Railway Get
ting Ready for the Summer Season.
The City and Suburban Railway is put
ting down oyster shells between the rails
on its Whitaker street line, from Hall to
Anderson street. This will afford good
road for the horses, and will also make
travelling more comfortable to those who
patrOnize the street cars. The company
proposes to shell the West Broad street
line from Battery Park to Liberty street.
At the cOmpany's shops wOrkmen are
busily engaged in putting in order and
painting the extra rolling stock prepare
tory to the summer business over the
out-Ot-town lines. All the passenger
coaches are being painted dark vermi-
lion. The locomotive "Rauers" is in the
shops having new drives put on, and the
"ClaghOrn" is receiving new coat of
paint.
A large platform car is in course of con-
structiOn and also another new street car.

DowN rwo HUNDRED FEET.

Work on the Artesian Well Suspended
on Account of an Accident to the Ma
chinery.
The work of boring the artesian well
was suspended last week, but was re-
sumed yesterday afternoon. The suspen-
sion was due to the breaking of the drill
about 200 feet from the surface. A piece
Of mechanism resembling a spiral cork
screw had to be made with which to eX-
tract the drill. This cOrkscrew cOntriv-
ance is of iron and about two feet in
length, and is let down over the top OF
the pipe aud turned by means of attached
sections of pipe by hanG-pOwer from the
top until the thread has secured firm
hold on the missing piece, which is then
brought to the surface by means of rope
and windlass.
When the work of drilling was resumed
Yesterday the auger or drill struck a hard
substance, supposed to be rock. 1t was
then alternately lifted and dropped about
four inches for about thirty minutes,
when the sections of pipe connecting
with the drill became unscTewed about
fifty feet from the bottom. This mishap
caused another suspension in the work at
4 80 O'Clock. The lost sections may be
recovered to-day. Supt. Mulligan, who
has charge of the work, does not appear
to be discouraged by the succession of
delays that have occurred since the under
taking was begun. He is confident that
he will successfully complete the work,
and that good flow OF water will be OBJ
tanned shortly.
The progress of the work has been
watched with good deal of interest not
only by those who are Immediately IN
terested in the enterprise but by the cit
liens generally. 1t is evident that the
artesian we'll is to be the means of secur-
ing pure water supply. The progress
of wells in other parts of the State is a
matter of considerable interest in view OF
the work in Savannah. The Atlanta well
is now 1856 feet deep and water rises to
within 325 feet of the top. The we'll at
WaynesbOrO, begun about year ago, is
down $50 feet. The work was abandoned
owing to the losing of the sand pump at
the bottom Of the well. This we'll has 900
feet of S-inch casing, and inside OF that
$50 feet of 6-inch casing, hence there is
only $50 feet Of friction to work against.

w i Seaman in his New Play,


On Friday evening Mr.. Seaman will
commence an engagement at the Theatre
appearing in his new play, the Irish
Minstrel" The Louisville C0urier-JOur-
nal says of his recent appearance in that
city: "A more thoroughly pleased au-
dlence has not assembled at the Masonic
Temple theatre this season than that
which witnessed W. j. Scanlan's APP
pearance in the Irish Minstrel last night.
The play is a simple story of every day
life in Ireland, as indicated by the title.
AS Larry O'Lynn,' the Irish minstrel,
Mr.. Scanlan is-but why attempt to de-
scribe itl With his handsome face,
bright, laughing eyes, his Incompatible
grace, his full, rich voice, and his genius
of melody and music, he is, in short, al
most in reality, that ideal native young
lrishman, the picture of whom has been
painted in nearly every ones mind from
scattered glimpses of the best Irish life
seen upon the stage. Every movement,
every intOnatiOn OF the voice, and every
sally of wit and repartee is native-born !;
and while his audience heartily encored
nearly every verse of his many songs,
thew were not whit less well pleased
with every point in his whole character

WONT BE KEPT OUT

What the Savannah Base Ballists Say
About Being Denied Admission to the
League,
The Savannah base ballists are some
what excited over the report that the
Southern League will not admit the New
Orleans nine to play as Savannah or
ganization. 1t is said that the opposition
comes from Atlanta. Some Of the Savan-
nah boys are of the opinion that it makes
but little difference whether an entire
nine Is impOl ted from one city, or whether
the nine is picked up in several cities.
Savannah, it is understood, has applied
for admission into the League, and don't
propose to be kept out.
