The effort to get the wires put in the sub
ways and to have the work done so as not to
interfere with newly laid pavements promises
to be the latest version Of the story without an
end. There was another struggle in the Board
Of Electrical Control yesterday, the practical
outcome of which was that the repaving of
Broadway is to be proceeded with, subways or
no subways. Commissioner Gilroy declares
that the permits of the Subway Company will
be revoked unless it completes its work with
out more ado. The company has had it's own
way so long that it is hardly likely to be dis
mayed or coered by these threats. Still, the
city officials will be upheld by public opinion
in taking stringent measures to keep the new

THE SHAREHOLDERS MUST PAY.

A Verdict Against Lawer O'Connor
in Beneficiary Society Case.
A jury in the city court last night brought
in a verdict against Elizabeth Houston,
treasurer of a colored beneficiary society
known as the Ladies' Union Branch Asso-
citation of the Workingmen's Union Asso-
citation, against P. J. O'Connor, ESQ.,, code
PENDANT, with whom she had deposited the
funds in her hands to await a settlement
with the finance committee of the society
The verdict was in favor of the society for
$149 65
1t appears there was in the society in
question lack of harmony. and the funds
were demanded of the treasurer, who
refused to turn them over, whereupon
Annie McFaul, president of the society,
swore out warrant charging Elizabeth
with the embeZzlement Of $l49 05. She
gave bond for her appearance before JUS
tice Russell, and when the preliminary ex-
animation came on to be heard, she with
drew the balance in bank to her
credit IS treasurer and with other funds in
her hands, aggregating $l49 65, turned IL
over to Mr.. OConner to count in open
court to show that she had not embezzled
the society's money. The justice, on exami-
nation, discharged her with the judgment
set out on the back of the warrant that he
saw no reason why she should be suspected
Of embezzlement.
The Houston woman admitted that she
had the funds, but claimed set off for the
expense incurred in paying for the bond
and for employing counsel to defend a
charge of felony. This Hon. p w. Mel
drim, counsel for the defendants urged the
court to permit to remain in the answer of
his clients, but, after argument, the court
granted the motion of George W. Owens,
Esq, and struck that portion of the plea.
Mr.. O'Connor's connection with the case
was that of stakeholder.

This handsome testimonial was purchased
by committee of the Georgia Press AsSo-
cation, to be presented to Col. J. II. Estill
of the SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS, for
twenty years. continuous service as presi-
dent of the association. 1t is magnificent
present and one well merited, for no man in
Georgia has done more to elevate the tone
of the press and stir up kindly spirit of
emulation among It's members. Himself q
practical newspaper man, who has, by his
own efforts, risen from the case to the
ownership of one of the largest and
most influential newspapers in the
south, he has always manifested the most
kindly feeling and sympathy with the
members of the country press that has
bound them to him with strong ties of
brotherhood, and it was only because he
refused longer to hold the office which he
has honored for so many years that they
consented to accept his resignation.
1t is a compliment to the James Fricker
g. Bro. company that they received this
order from the committee. as it shows their
ability to handle the best goods in the
market. The case and set will be on exhibit
tion to-day, when it will be sent to Col.
EStill.

Roads of hundreds of miles in length and
nifty stations vary, generally, not more
than a few minutes. Yet this of only a
short distance and no stations is often, at

long day 1t is very trying. Last
night the schedule said $3.50 standard.

this city at IL o'clock. Then, if it must be
late, why not agree with the city street rail-
roads to have one car, at any rate, on
each line to wait till they do come, so that
the tired women and little children will not
have to drag themselves half the length Of
the city before they can reach their much
needed bedss Last night one Liberty car
was waiting for about, | might say, 200
persons. OF course only lucky few could
get ride, and they were seated two deep.

evening; but their hearts were "too full for
