Marshal 5tegin Arrested for ExtOrt-
ing Shoes from Shopkeeper.
NJ. p Stegin, deputy United States
marshal and an eI-policeman. was arrested
yesterday morning by a deputy United
States marshal on a charge OF extortion
under color of Office, in violation Of the
statutes of the United States, and was
given preliminary hearing by COmmis-
sioner Frank Lamar, who, after hearing
the evidence, held Stegin to answer IN tie
United States circuit court in the sum Of
$500
1t appeared from the testimony Of
Barnard Velaski that Stegin, whom the
witness identified in the court room, came
to Velaski's place On Sunday night, July Z,
very much excited" Velaski says, and
took up pair Of SHOES, and having done so
showed Ee.asH paper telling him that he
was a Deputy United States marshal.
Stegln didn't offer to pay for the shoes, but
took them away with him. A couple of
days afterward he returned the shoes, and
1t was thought he took that course because
a warrant was issued from Commissioner
Lamar's Office for his arrest.
The testimony Of Joseph Price was to the
effect that he was at Velaski's store on the
sunday night in question when Stegln came
IN aud took possession of a pair Of shoes,
showed it TO Velasd Price heard Velaski
say, Il can't do it" but Stegin answered,
THAT is all right" and took the shoes away
with him.
Max Bluestein, a clerk with L. Bluesten,
testified that about two weeks ago Stegin
came into Lewis Bluestein'S store and asked
Bluestein if he knew it was against the law
to keep his store open on a Sunday night,
and taking out paper from his pocket said
he was an United States marshal, and if
Bluesteln would give him pair of shoes he
would make it all right. Buestein would
not give Stegin the shoes, and Stegin left,
saying; II will see you next week about
it.n
Stegln made q statement before Commits
sloner Lamar which was in substance that
he went into Velaski's store to buy a pair
OF shoes and asked Tor and found a pair to
suit VelasH wrapped them up, Stegin
telling him that he would call again the fol-
loving we5k and pay for the shoes. Velaski
told MIN that he did not do that kind of
business. Stegin said that he
tod VeIaski 1t was all right; that he was
deputy United States marshal and he
would pay for the shoes and take them with
him. He added that be was drinking some
at the time, but as soon as he found out
where he got the shoes he took them back
and apologized to VelaslIi and offered TO
pay him. He said that Velaski accepted
the apology and Stegin said he thought

THE TYBEE WAsHOUT.
The Break at LePageville Repaired and
Trains Run Through on Time.

The Break at LePageville Repaired and
Trains Run Through on Time.
The break in the Tybee railroad track at
LePageviIle was repaired yesterday with
out any interruption to travel Supervisor
McGee of the Savannah, Florida snc West
ern railway, with large force of men
began work on the derailed car and the
washout at 8 o'clock yester day morning
and by o'clock the track was clear
The train which left Tybee at z o'clock
brought up Supt. Cobb, who could not be
reached the night before on account of a
break in the telephone line. An extra train
was run down from the city to the break
and the up bound passengers were trans
terred and brought in with only few min
utes' delay. The derailed car was pulled
back on the track and haulel into the depot.
The $3.50 O'clock train passed over the break,
which has been temporarily brldged until
the embankment can be filed in.
The washout was a deep one. The water
undermined the roadbed where it crosses a
deep run and culvert and carried the earth
away down the run. 1t will take day or
two TO get the washout filled in, but the
work will in nowise interrupt the move
ment of trains.
The damaged cars were brought into the
depot, end force of repairers began work
on them at Onoe. The platforms of two of
the Savannah and Tybee coaches were
cracked and twisted, and the broken tim
bers will have to be replaced with new tim
oers and iron work. The repairs will not
consume more than a day.
Supt. Cobb had all trains out
on time yesterday except the morning
train, which was not delayed more than a
few minutes An inspection of the entire
roadbed was made to see if there were any
weak spots, but the embankment was found
to be firm and solid. The officers and en-
plOyes of this end Of the road had hard
nights work. Conductor Harris was at the
washout until the track was replaced.
General Freight and Passenger Agent
Woodruff was on the ground as soon as he
received notice of the accident, and looked
after the work
Supt. Cobb said yesterday that the dam
age to the cars is comparatively light The
Inconvenience in not having the cars to use
is the worst part of it, and that it will not
he for more than day or two.

TOMOCHICHI.
a Celebration in His Honor Sug-
Rested.


Editor Morning Nelos: Last May the
Savannah correspondent Of the Charleston
Ne1rs and Courier suggested ttat very
appropriate event TO observe would be the
l5Oth anniversary of the death of TomO-
chichi, which occurred Oct. ). 1879.
heartily second the idea TOmochiohi was
good friend TO the English settlers under
Gov. Oglethorpe He was a prominent
Indian chief, aud lived near where the city
OF Savannah now stands; for these reasons,
If no others, it would be appropriate to
have sesqui-centenHial in honor Of him.
The people OF Savannah, | think, could
make 1t a success. A number of people
from different portions of Georgia, and even
from South Carolina, will attend. There
are yet two months and half to think over
and prepare for it. What is there 10 pre-
vent such a celebratiouii
If a seSqui-centennial in honor of Tomo-
chichl Is held, it would be good plan TO
invite several prominent gentlemen to de-
liver addresses on this occasion. Also invite
the chiefs of the Cherokees aud Greeks to
be present, for these tribes used to live in
Georgia. If the chiefs attended they would
be an attraction.
Georgia has a most interesting Indian
history, and she can well afford TO feel
proud of her prominent Indians. Beside
TOmochichi there was John Ross. whose
name was SO familiar to the Georgians half
century ago. He was more than politi-
clan, he was a statesman. Maj. Ridge,
believe, also lived in Georgia. He was
prominent Cherokee leader Sequoyah, or
George Guess, the famous inventor of the
Cherokee alphabet, was another Georgia
Indian, and it was in your state that Osceola
was born. He was dauntless warrior and
a sincere patriot
A sesqui- centennial at Savannah in honor
of TomOchichi would revive an interest in
the Indian history of Georgia. and it would
be pleasant occasion to the people of Sa-
yannah and other portions of the state. A
state which has had as many distinguished
Indians as Georgia certainly ought TO have
celebration in honor of some of them.

A JBWELRY SHOP ROBBED.
Cranes Place on Broughton Stree
Broken Into.

Cranes Place on Broughton Street
Broken Into.
William Green and Owen Mack, both
colored, were before the mayor yesterday
morning for breaking into Cranes jewelry
shop on Broughton street, opposite the
Marshall house, night before last The
window in front of the shop was smashed
aud Crane said that between $50 and S75
worth of jewelry, principally chains and
gold pins and ornaments, was stolen.
Policeman Il. NJ. Morgan went to work
on the case and in short time he arrested
Mack, with some of the jewelry in his pos
session. Green was arrested for completely
in the robbery. The most of the stolen
goods have been recovered. Part Of it
Mack had in his pockets; some of it he had
pawned, and the other stuff he had got rid
of in various ways.
The mayor turned Mack over to the CITY
court, and Green's case was continued for a
further hearing. 1t is probable that the
superior court grand jury will look into the
robbery.

Guard Pittman Fires an Intellectual
Shot at an Ugly Prisoner.
Jack Pittman, one of the guards Of AL
lens gang of convicts, at work on the
Ogeechee road, shot colored convict yes
to-day afternoon, but the ball struck the
sternum glancing blow, and the injury is
very insignificant one. DR.. Il. B. CHS
holm, who was sent for at once, said that
at $50 O'Clock last night the convict was
laughing and showed no sign of an injury.
The trouble grew out of the insubordina-
ton of the negro, who was ordered to do some
particular part of the work and refused.
The guard was about to chastise him for
the refusal, when the negro picked up
doub.e-barreled gun belonging to a guard,
and, clubbing the weapon, was advancing
upon Pittman with vengefuI mien, when
Pittman, getting the drop, fired at the con-
Wet with his revolver. The negro recoiIed
from the shot, submitted to arrest, and
was taken back to the camps, aud DR..
Chisholm was summo ned, but tue latter
said that his patient will be able for duty

THE MULES MUST GO,
The Street Car Lines Pretty Certain to
Adopt Electricity.

The Belt Line and the City and Suburban
railways are both considering the question
of using electric motors. The public will,
doubtless, welcome the change from mules
and Texas ponies to electricity. With
electric motors cars can be run more quick
ly and with less danger to people on the
streets than by any other known power. The
first outlay for an electric motor plant is
very heavy, but the system, it is said, saves
great deal IN the long run.

for the great number in Germany

To-day the popular girl must be
able to walk five miles in any kind
of weather, to ride across country
to WELD an oar and tennis bat,
and otherwise prove herself the
physical peer of the tyrant man.
The world has discovered that all
these recreations are entirely COM
patible with feminine grace and
delicacy. The weakling is no
longer fashionable, and a season
constructed upon the principle that
girls could do nothing but dance
is everywhere dying out. The hal
cyon days of the summer hotel,
which admits all who can pay for
the privilege to the arena of its
fashionable activities, have passed
away in some of the most noted
resorts, and in others are numbered.
Summer residences, whose laws are
more exclusive, are superceding
these caravansaries, and indiscrim-
mate public hops are no longer
popular. The summer season as
sumes, even in the ultra fashionable
resorts, its natural character of an
outing, and all the resources of
nature at these places-her wealth
of rocks and waters, of woods and
mountains enjoyed to the ut
termost by people once more in
love with open. air pleasures.
The change is dictated by good
sense and good taste, and indicates
healthful progress in our social
customs toward freedom and sim
plicity.
