AT THE COURTS.
The Wimpey Damage Case On Trial
in the City Court.

in the City Court.
The Wimpey case against the Savannah,
Florida and Western railway occupied the
city court yesterday, and was not concluded
at the hour of adjournment last night.
The suit Is for $1,000 damages.
w. b. Wimpey, agent for John A. Wimpey
of Atlanta, late ownerssof the steamboat New
South, is the plaintiff. The case will come
up again this morning, when the remainder
OF the plaintiffs testimony will be heard
and the testimony for the defense will also
be given. Mr.. Wimpey was manager of
the New South, which was engaged in haul
ing naval stores from points on the Great
Ogeechee and Canoochee rivers. The suit
Is based upon the allegation that the rail-
road company impeded navigation on the
the Great Ogeechee river by placing a
bridge across the stream, the draw of which
IS not Of sufficient width to allow the safe
passage Of the New South, and thereby
causing the plaintiff the loss of a large
amount Of naval stores already contracted
for with parties above the bridge. The
New South received the naval
stores contracted for, but the
cargo had to be brought to the
| boat on flats, and the prices bargained
for had to be deducted, in consequence Of
the steamer not being able to go where the
naval stores we're stored.
somewhat upon notification by Mr.. VIM
pey, but q number of tenders or piling
were LETT projecting above the water at low
water, and which were covered at high
tide, over which Mr.. Wimpey is not will
lug to run his boat, and he alleges that the
New South could not safely pass through
the draw as it stood. He made several trips
up the Ogeechee river with the New South,
but did not get full cargoes, which he would
have received and for which he seeks to
have the railroad pay him.
The railroad company through its attor-
neys denies the allegations, and contends
| that the draw of the bridge is amply wide
| for the safe passage of the New South.
| and that the river above the bridge is I'M
navigable and could not be navigable by a
steamboat Of the dimensions of the New
South.
A large number of witnesses has been
| subp9naed and the case is being holly con-
tested by both Sides Mr.. Wimpey was on
the stand almost the entire day.

was about to be hbelled by the crew not

IN AND ABOUT THE CITY.
EFFECT OF THE CITY's MOVE.
The Ground Rent Fight VIII Not Delay
Collection OF Other Taxes

The Ground Rent Fight VIII Not Delay
Collection OF Other Taxes.
In answer 70 the question as to whether
the effort by the city to collect taxation
from the ground rent lots would tie up the
ci1y's usual revenue or delay its collection,
Corporation Attorney Adams said yester-
day that he could not perceive any reason
for this apprehension. Taxpayers, other
than the holders Of ground rent lots, would
not and could not refuse to pay, or CON-
plain, because the city is endesvoring to
collect revenue from these lots and thus
decrease their burdens.
The obligation u pay what is called
ground rent, but what Is substantially the
Interest on the deferred payments OF pur-
chase money, the corporation attorney said
IS admittedly required by the deco and is
entirely a distinct and separate thing from
the taxation Of the l1t The failure to pay
the ground rent would cause a sale of the
lot without the right Of redemption, and no
prudent lot holder would take so serious a
risk, IN the face too, of an undisputed and
lndisputable obligation.
In assessing real property for taxation
the lot and improvements are assessed
separately, and an effort to collect taxes on
the lot could not, the corporation attorney
added, prejudice or delay tue collection Of

ton of Alderman Falligant cannot, there

As to the course TO be pursuedin bringing
the matter to test, Mr.. Adams said that
TINS question for the council, but he is
confident that the purpose of all the board
IS to haze this done in a way that will be
least expensive and troublesome to the hold
ers OF these lots. He thought that Alderman
Myers expressed the feeling of the board
when he suggested at the last meeting that
some lot be selected and a test case be made
OF that-the claims as to all other lots being
held, in the meanwhile, in allegiance.
If the manner of procedure is left to him,
Mr.. Adams said that he would select lot
of wealthy and prominent citizen-one
particularly earnest and intense in his con-
viction that his lots ought not to be taxed
and in the determination to resist the effort
to tax. Such a lot holder could and would
see to it that his side had a complete show
ing in the courts, whether others made
common cause with him or not During
this litigation no other lot holders need be
molested

The People Taxing Sides in the Bay
ard Murder Case.
W. E. Morrison, Esq, who returned yes
terday from Sylvania superior court, re-
ports that great deal of interest is CEN
tered in the trial for murder of an alliance
man named Bayard. The trial axes place
to-day. Judge Twiggs represents Bayard,
and Solicitor General Rogers will prosecute
the case The alliancemen are standing
up for Bayard and have raised 81 900 to aid
in his defense.
Bayard claims that he acted in self-de-
tense. Sometime ago he became involved
in difficulty with another farmer who
was not an allianceman, and Bayard was
slapped in the face. He seized a stick and
dealt his antagonist blow on the head,
killing him almost instantly. He did not
attempt to elude the officers, but gave him
self up, and after a preliminary hearing
was bailed out.
The affair has caused good deal of excite
ment in the vicinity, aud in fact through
out alliance circles all over the state. The
counsel for the accused ranks foremost as a
prosecuting attorney. The vicinity, it is
said, has taken sides on the matter. Bayard
has his strong friends, while the sympa-
thiZers with the deceased are many,
