THE CENTRAL WON 1T.
The Race With the e. T., V. and G.'s
Florida Excursion.

The Race With the e. T., V. and G. s
Florida Excursion.
An interesting race from Jacksonville to
Atlanta between the Central railroad and
the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
railroad resulted yesterday morning in a
victory for the Central. It is a custom to
run an excursion every year about this
time out of Jacksonville to Atlanta. The
Savannah, Florida and Western railway
brings the excursion from Jacksonville to
Waycross, where the train divides one-half
going via Jesup and the East Tennessee.
Virginia and Georgia railroad and the other
half via Albany and the Central railroad.
There is always great competition be-
tween the two lines as to .yhich can make
the quickest time to Atlanta with the ex-
cursion. The excursion left Jacksonville
Tuesday afternoon at 6:20 D. m. The Gen.
trails portion reached Albany at 1:l4 a. IN.
with 300 passengers on board. At 20 a. IN.
it left Albany for Macon, reaching the latter
point at 8 35 a. m, making the run of l07
miles from Albany TO Macon in 2
hours and 10 minutes, including stops.
A two minutes stop was made at
Macon, aud Atlanta was reached at 6:33
a. m, a hot box causing considerable delay.
The East Tennessee. Virginia and Geor-
gia train reached Atlanta at 1:iS, IS min
utes behind the Central train.
The East Tennessee had the advantage of
Al miles in the distance also.
The Central has won every one of the
annual races SO far.

PAID WELL FOR HIS JOB
THE CITY ADDS A 500 MAN TO
ITS DETECTIVE FORCE

The Mayor Makes the Announcement
In Police Court in the Trial Of the
Wilkins Appeal Case-A Mystery
Surrounding G. W. Turner's EN-
! ploymeat by the City Until Mayor
/ BcDonough Explains It.
! The police cours was the scene of little
5ensation yesterday morning by the an
nouncement of Mayor McDonough from the
bench that the city is paying one man 500
a month to ferret out violators Of the Sun
day saloon ordinance.
Paul Wilkins, H C. D. Suffer and NJ. V.
DAILY were before his honor charged with
selling whisky on Sunday. Wilkins case
was taken up first. Policeman Bossell and
@. W. Turner were the city's witnesses.
Turner stated that at the instance of Officer
Bossell he bought a pint OF liquor from
wilkins Sunday. Sept. 25, and paid 10
cents on account for it. He said wilkins
went into the saloon for the whisky.
TIE MAYOR EXPLAINED II.
". W. Osborne, Esq, represented Wil@
kins and put Turner through a severe
cross-sxaminatlon. He asked the witness
II he was paid for Informing on saloon
keepers, and Turner declined to answer
Mr.. Osborne insisted on some sort of reply,
but the witness hesitated. The attorney
began urging him, when Mayor McDonough
said: 81 will answer for him He makes
500 a month, and to settle all question of
pay, will state that he is employed by the
city at that salary
This settled the matter and Mr.. Osborne
then inquired of Turner where he came
from. The man is a carpenter and formerly
lived in Macon. wilkins admitted giving
Turner the whisky, but denied that he &C
cepted money for it. the man, he said
came TO his place, and begged for whisky,
claiming to be SICK. and he gave him some
out of bottle he had in his
sideboard. Wilkins statement was corrob-
GRATED by his landlady. but nevertheless
he was fined 800 or thirty days imprison-
ment. Mr.. Osborne at once gave notice of
an appeal to the council.
MR., suffer CATCHES IT.
H. C. D. Suffer was the next victim
Turner swore that he bought 25 cents
worth OF whisky there from a negro who
let him in the back gate. Suffer denied
Turner's statement, but he was also fined
$780, 7. s. Morgan, Jr., ESQ.,, his attor-
ney, appealed the case.
DAILY was acquitted, as the charge against
him by Corse, who was convicted few
days ago Of peddling whisky on the streets
on Sunday, was not substantiated. Corse
claimed that Daily furnished him the liquor.
Mayor McDonough claims that Turner is
employed as a city detective under the or
dinances, ard that the work he is perform
ing is perfectly legitimate. An ordinance
was passed several years ago providing for
four city detectives, but only one was ap~
pointed. Mayor McDouough finally made
up his mind that the only way to ferret out
violstors Of the Sunday liquor law is by
means of detectives, and that ia why Turner
is employed. 1t would be no use, In the
mayors opinion, to put a detective who is
known on such cases. A stranger is the
only person who can secure the evidence.
Turner will continue in the service OF the
city a while longer.

this exemption from the general stagnation
is because this is growing city. II don't

THE FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL
Nearly Three Hundred More Pupils

Nearly Three Hundred More Pupils
Than Last Year.
Yesterday closed the first week of the
public schools for the fall term. Tho re-
ports of the principals showed 4 ,139 pupils
enrolled, an increase of IS since the begin
ming OF the week.
The actual increase is much greater than
this, but many Of the children who were
transferred from the Henry Street school to
other schools have failed to put In their APP
pearance, not liking the idea Of
being transferred. Most of them
will enter the schools to which they
were assigned next week. Nearly 900 pu-
pills requested admission at the Henry
Street school. There are now 432 pupils in
attendance, which is about fifty more than
/ accommodations have been provided for
Probably more children will have to be
transferred yet. As most OF the children al
the Henry Street school come from south of
Henry street. and as the ma joritv of them
are small children, the work of transferring
them to proper grades in other schools is
very difficult.
1t has been suggested that the South Side
school on Second street be reoponed. There
is no doubt that another school building Ia
the southern section of the CITY will be ne.

THE RAILROADS sIpE OF IT.
They Deny That a Terminal Charge of
20 Cents Is Made on Cotton Here.

They Deny That Terminal Charge OF
20 Cents Is Made on Cotton Here.
The statement made 20 the MORNING
NEWS, In reference TO rates to the ports
that the railroads make a terminal charge
Of % cents for handling cotton at Savan-
nah that is not made at other ports seems
TO be incorrect. From the facts presented
by the railroads, the shoe appears to be on
the other foot.
Maj w. +. Shellmau, traffic manager of
the Central railroad, says the question of
terminal charges at Savannah appears %
be entirely misunderstood by the cotton
men or some of them. Instead of charging
% cents for terminal privileges at the port,
including wharfage, truckHge and lighterage
or cotton to the ships, when the vessels are
not lying alongside their own wharves, Mai
Shellman says the re lroads pay out
OF their own pockets these expenses,
actually shrinking their rates to the amount
OF the cost OF this work. So that instead
OF making charge for this work, they do
1t without charge
In addition, Msj. Shellman says the rail-
roads store cotton for the merchants with
out charge for from one to six weeks and
ottentimes as long as three or four months.
BESIDES this, they pay compressage at the
rate OF 10 cents per 100 pounds ia the int
nor, or about as cents per bale, for which
they received no adequate return.
The Central railroad, Maj Shellman
says, does not fix its own rates between
points within the state The rates are
nxed by the railroad commission For all
competitive points within the state, as well
as without it, the railroads meet, through
their representative, and agree upon GER
tain nxed rate to all the ports, which all
the lines are bound to MAINTAIN.
MAJ. Shellmau challenges any shipper or
factor to produce single instance where
the railroads have cut the rate or given
rebate to any neighboring port, or to point
out single individual who has profited by
such cut or rebate. He says if such thing
Is being done the Central would be glad of
the information.
The rate from Montgomery, Ala, Mai
Shellman said, to Charleston, Savannah,
brunswick and New Orleans is As cents per
hundred pounds. The rate to Savannah
he says, from all competitive points within
the state is less than the rate to Norfolk and
West Point.
There does not seem to be as much activity
In Savannah in buying cotton this year.
The Central is several thousand bales short
from the territory of the Savannah,
Americus and Montgomery railroad.
1t can hardly be supposed that there is
any discrimination against Savannah bv the

way, whose agents are here soliciting BUSH
