A.cosTLY oFFeNsE TO COMMIT.

The Authorit es Looking After the
DumpinZ OF Reuse in the Earbor.
While Savannah's representatives are in
the west and northwest striving, aud with
success. 70 obtain the corporation Of these
sections to secure deeper water, her repre-
sentatives at home have something to do to
devise ways and means TO retain the depth
or water they now have.
The money appropriated by the last river
and harbOr bill has practically been spent.
The dredging has been flushed, and opera
tions on the jetties have ceased and will not
be renewed until another Appropriation.
The recant libeliug of the British steam
ship Northern for dumping refuse in New
York harbor has brought the attention Of
the authorities to the fact that ashes from
steamers and sweepiugs from the whsrves
semehow or other find their way into the
5 tvannah river, 20 the detriment of the
channel. Within day or two it was said
by one OF the river mea, one who has
many opportunities for observing work
on the river. that the steamer BendO, while
aground on the Garden bank last Saturday
night AID Sunday moruing, had ash chutes
leading from her fire rooms to the surface
OF the water, in position for unloading
ashes. The Garden bank Is the shoalest
point in the river, with the exception Of the
Knoll. Another foreign steamer passing
outward recently, it is said, threw
ashes into the channel, without
even taking the precaudon Of
running out schutes. The river steamer
aud lighter men are not over particular,
either. as to where they deposit their sweep
ings and refuse.
With the United States laws, state laws
and city ordinances, there has not been, in
recent years. at best, a conviction for this
offense. The laws are comprehensive
enough to make out a case. The penalties
are severe enough to deter any person from
making himself liable second time.
Under the law the penalty for throwing,
empuying, unloading, or causing,
suffering, or procuring to be thrown,
emptied or unladen into any navi-
gable stream, from any ship, lighter, ba ge,
boat or other craft, or from the shore, pier,
wharf, furnace, manuf cturing establish
ment, or mills of any kind whatever, any
ballast. stone, slate. gravel, earth, rubbish,
muck, 9th, slabs, edgings, sawdust, or
other waste, is a fine of $500, or imprison-
ment for one year, or both, at the dis
erection Of the court. The law even goes
further: The placing of any rubbish,
waste, etc., on a wharf, barge. or other
place, where it is washed into a navigable
stream by storm or tide, is punishabls by
the same penalties

A Novel Case.

The trial Of John A. Stewart for assault
and battery resulted In an acquittal. The
case is both peculiar and novel, from the
fact that the trial for assault and battery
grew out Of the killing of negro. Stew
art, who is dwarf white man weighing
about eighty pounds, quarreled with Sambo
jackson, grown negro. During the quar-
rel Stewart struck jackson on the head with
brick, and the negro died 10 few dal 8.
The coroner's jury found Stewart guilty of
murder, and he was sent to Jail. The pris-
oner employed Clifton & Way of this city to
defend him, and MIR. Way went to Liberty
county and demanded a preliminary trial.
AT that hearing the attorney sue ceeded in
getting Stewards crime reduced to voluu-
tary manslaughter. He was then released
on bond. When the grand jury met Mr..
Way proved to its satisfaction that Jackson
didn't die from the effects of the
brick wound. and that body indicted
Stewart for assault and battery. The
petit jury was convinced that there
hadn't even been an assault and bat
terry and acquitted Stewart The question
now agitating the people Of Liberty county
is: What killed Sambo jackson if ID wasn't
the brick thrown by Stewartl There Is
probably no other case on record where a
man charged with murder has had his
crime re .uced by grand jury to assault
and battery.

The Johnston Station Suits.

An interesting civil case IN which the Sa-
vannah. Florida and Western railway
figured as defendant closed the work of the
term. The roads warehouse at Johnston
Station, containing large amount of freight
was burned by an incendiary in November,
1889. Claims we're made by the owners of
freight against the road, but it denied re-
sponsibility setting forth that it had
used due diligence to protect the property,
and shouldn't be held liable for the work Of
an incendiary. Two small test suits were
brought, and about 1900 were held off to
await results. Clifton & Way represented
the Savannah, Florida and Western, and
the jury returned verdict for the defend
ant after few minutes deliberation. The
other suits will hardly be pressed
The case of William H. Sallette, charged
with the murder of q negro, was continued
