HOME FROM THEIR TRIP.
Central Railroad Employees Back From
Their Inspecting Tour.

The party Of Central railroad employees
who left Savannah July "a on an inspect
ing tour north and west returned yesterday.
They report an enjoyable trip, and say
they were never before so we'll treated
railroad systems north, and made a thor
ough inspection of their shops, etc. They
spent several days in Philadelphia with the
Pennsylvania railroad. They made short
stays at Louisville, Cincinnati, Columbus,
Jeffersonville, Ind. New York, Altoona,
Pa. and Washington. The party visited
Coney Island while in New York.
Each railroad presented the inspecting
party complimentary tickets over all
branches of their road, and explained the
working of their systems thoroughly. The
party was composed of nine men, as fol-
lows: F. H. McGee of Savannah, w. II.
Lathrop of Macon, w. H. Stubs of Au-
gusta, +. B. Arden of Savannah, g. d.
Smith of Macon, w. d. Martin of Macon,
]. b. Stevens of Griffin, E. E. Anderson of

Every branch of the Central road was repre-
sented. Among other roads, the inspectors
visited the Baltimore and Ohio railroad,
Cincinnati Southern railway, Nashville,
Chattanooga and ST. Louis railroad, Louis
vile and Nashville railroad, Richmond and
Danville railroad, Pennsylvania railroad,
and portion of the Jersey railroad.
Capt. George d. Smith of Macon said
the time passed off very pleasantly and that
the party made only one "slip" in their
tour. When asked in what way they
slipped up he remarked that each one of
| the men lost a weeks washing in Philadel-
phIa. They made a lengthy stay at Phila-
delphia, and during the time sent out wash
ing and before it was returned they had
left for New York. They learned after
ward that the laundry to which their
clothing had gone, had been condemned by
the city, and they entertained no further
hopes of getting them again.
The party spent some time at the Cincin-
natl exposition and, in the language of Mr..
j. B. Stevens of Griffin, at was another
state fair" They arrived here at Clio yester-
day morning via the Atlantic Coast line.

president Of the board, who repeated the
refusal, and suggested that Mr.. Saussy
could see the members individually after
the meeting had adjourned. Mr. Sau.sy
tried to arrange meeting with
DR.. Mitchell, but he pleaded press
ing duties. When the meeting
had adjourned, Mr.. Saussy made himself
known to the secretary of the health board,
and asked for report of the action or the
board. This was refused He was then
notified that the board would meet at
o'clock that night, but be was notified that
there was no use for him to try to gain
hearing.
JACKsoNvILLE's CONDITION.
Mr. Saussy says that he made diliyent
inquiry into the sanitary condition OF jack
sonville and found disturbing cause there
which would not be to tolerated here. The
garbage is dumped in a causeway inside the
city limits and is concealed only by
light covering of soil. This he
said would cause a health officer
in Savannah, who would permit
such condition of affairs to lose his official
head. He said that there is no disinfection
OF the poorer quarters OF the city. Inc
sewers under the wharf discharge their
sewage above high water some two feet or
more, and he called the attention of the
authorities to the laxity of the regulations.

been advising the people to leave the city.
SATISFIED ABOUT THE FEVER.
He satisfied himself that there was yellow
fever there, and before he left the city
there was q stampede to get away. 1t was
then that he telegraphed to Savannah the
situation of affairs, and before he
sent the telegram he showed
it to the authorities. He told
them that he would advise quarantining
against Jacksonville, and he suggeste that
Jacksonville could then quarantine against
places south of her, and by isoiating the
cases Of fever already existing the disease
could he the sooner controlled.
Mr.. Saussy said that twelve Jacksonville
passengers came into Savannah Thursday
night All except three Of these were resi-
dents here. He thinks that the health and
sanitation of Savannah were never better
than now, and he does not fear visitation
Of the fever.

patch last night from President Mitchell,
OF the Jacksonville board of health

The Best Time to Buv valuables

This is the dull season OF the year. This
information is not exclusive or from inspi-
ration. Trade is pretty well as far as it
goes-but it doesn't go far. The purchasing
power of a dollar now is something surpris-
ing, simply because there are more dollars
than trade. IL a word, we are now inclined
to give a very large dollars worth for 100
cents just to keep things moving. Within
the past few months we have added to our
stock III various ways, new ideas, new con-
ceits, new tricks and Quips in jewelry and
SO on. We've got to keep up, you know,
with the strides of inventive and artistic
excellence. Our stock is worth looking
over, and, as intimated, we a0iU sell Usru
close to move some of it. This is good
time to renew household articles. Solid
Silver table ware, superb plated ware,
ornamental goods. For personal use or
adornment we offer line par excellence &C
Ladies ane Gold, Silver and Diamond
Jewelry, LADIES' Watches, Chairs and
Charms, Gents Watches ana Jeweiry, etc.
All OF these articles can be bought cheaper
now than when trade gets brisker Some
body will get married next fall-buy the
presents you intend to give no,c. They
will keep, and you will save money.

Didn't Mind Her Sweetheart.

Edward Miller, robust young negro,
was marched into Justice SheftaIl's office
yesterday by Constable Nathans, charged
with assault and battery. Mary King, the
prosecutor, a good-looking mulatto girl, sat
in one corner of the office, and when Miller
walked in she burst into sobs, AMI said that
she could not prosecute her sweetheart.
Miller was highly indignant, and paid little
attention to the woman. He did not deny
the charge. He stated that the girl did not
get her dues. He said she was his "best
girl" but she had ''gone along" in matters
without consulting him, and be was only
trying to bring her up in the way she
should go, when the difficulty occurred.
He was bound over, pending trial in the
city court.

Wetherhorn Explains.

SAVANNAH, Aug 10, 16SS.-Since the
publication of my card in the NEWS of Aug
s, in which l asserted that Solicitor General
du Bignon had attempted to deprive me of
my rights have ascertained that the in
formation upon which acted was incorrect.
The instructions given by MIR. du Bgnon
were that bond be given for an examina-
ton or one returnable to the superior court
The instructions as brought to me were
that q bond returnable to the superior
court be given and that no other would be
taken. In view of these facts, l regret ex-
tremely having been led into making so
serious a charge, and now withdraw the
language used. HENRY WETHERHoRN

ON RAIL AND OROSsTIR.
Local and General Gossip in Railway
Circles.

The Central railroad will run an excursion
train to Augusta for the colored people to-
day, allowing them to spend tomorrow in
Augusta The fare is 50 so. An excursion
will also be run to Salt Springs for the
accommodation of all Savannahians who
wish to hear Talmage's sermon tomorrow.
The round trip ticket is So rs. Trains leave
here at 7:10 a. m. and 500 p. m, going to
Augusta and Atlanta.
The Southern railway and steamship as
sociation is now completely reorganized,
notwithstanding the refusal of several i'm
portant and influential roads to again join
it. The obligations Of membership in the
association are such that rates, ETC., are mu-
tually agreed upon and cannot be deviated
from without mourning a heavy fine 1t
was originally, and is now, intended as
protection to its members, and it serves the
purpose well, but without the cooperation
of all roads it would seem to materially
handicap all the roads of the association, as
it in measure restraints them from meet
ing opposition from outside roads. The
Louisville and Nashville system, as already
stated in the MORNING NEWS, withdrew
because the principal competitor, the Mobile
and Ohio, was out, and was cutting rates
from st. LOUIS, or rather from East ST.
Louis. This withdrawal of the Louisville
and Nashville placed it on an equal
footing with It's competitor, but 1t also
forced the Queen and Crescent to withdraw,
as between the two roads there is lively
competition fer business south from Cincin-
natl and north from New Orleans. There
are no new developments as a result of the
"bust up and as far as known, the asso-
citation rates are still maintained. If any
rate war is made at all, it will probably be
by the Louisville and Nashville, to meet
business out of st. Louis. But it is officially
asserted that the road will not commence a
war, and for the very good reason that it
would be a needless and almost bankrupt
ing expense.

Not Heated in the Mains.

SAVANNAH, GA, Aug. TO- - Editor
Morning Ne,Cs Your allusion this
morning to tie warmth of the artesian
water, and intimating that it was caused
by the exposure of the pipes TO the sun, is
not correct. The warmth is only IN the
pipes connecting from the mains to the
Dwellings which are above ground. Open
ing the cocks, and allowing the water to
flow for few moments, you " i'll have the
water as ''deliciously fresh and palatablen
as when it is drawn from the wells. This is
my experience.
