Justice Jackson Gives the Franchise
to Some Securities Held by the
Central
A petition was recently sent by Re
ceiver Conner to Justice Jackson, who has
taken the Central railroad litigation in
hand, stating that the Central railroad
owned and controlled $l,176,6OO of the
general mortgage bonds of the Port
Royal and Augusta railroad, which carry
with them voting power to the amount of
one vote to every 500; also 1,05 shares
of the Port Royal and Augusta railroad
stock, $40 shares of the preferred stock,
and 6,940 shares of the common stock of
the Port Royal and Western Carolina
railroad, which were held in trust Tor
the property by him as receiver. Part
of the general mortgage bonds are by
potheCated as security for the one-haf
interest of the Central in the Georgia
railroad lease.
The petition stated that it was of
great interest and Importance to the
trust that the right to vote these stocks
and bonds should be exercised, and asked
that voting for them should be given to
CO-reCeiver Hayes and Receiver Conner,
so that by voting they can exercise such
influence and control in the management
of the corporations in which these bonds
and stocks are held as is proper for them
TO exercise in carrying out the trusts con-
ferred upon them as rec iyers of the Cen
trail Railroad and Banking Company
An order, granting the voting power
asked for was signed by Justice jackson,
and the petition and order were filed
yesterday in the United States circuit

Business Men Giving Their Hearty
Cooperation to Organizing 1t.
Much interest has been manifested in
the success of an enterprise which while
not a new one has features which win be
valuable to every business man who con-
meets himself with it. The Commercial
Cluo in itself will when organized, be a
new thing for Savannah and one which
will serve well the interests of the bust
ness men.
Those interested in its organization will
meet tonight at the Office OF Nlessrs.
Erwin, duBiguou & Chisholm. Already
the efforts Of those who are foremost in
the work of organizing it are meeting
with success, and it is thought that the
club when it starts will have list of $50
members or more.
The objects of the projected club are
comprehensive and well indicated by its
title. 1t is the intention of those who
enter 1t not only to serve their own inter-
ests and those of each other, but also to
let outside people know just what the
commerce OF Savannah is and whore she
stands as commercial port. The facili-
ties OF this port TO accommodate the com
merce of this section are unlimited. and
the business men of the community want
to let everybody know il. There is no
doubt that TIE efforts to organize the club

TO MEET TONIGHT.

Merchants to Arrange For Bringing
People Into the City From All Sec
tIons.
Savannah's merchants will have an i'm
portaut meeting in the banquet hall of
the De Soto tonight.
They are going to try to make some ar
raugement to bring the people from the
surrounding sections into Savannah at
certain stated periods by giving eXcur-
SiOns, which VIII either be free or on
which o stated fare greatly reduced may
be charged, and which will be refunded
when certain purchases are made by those
who buy the tickets.
The idea is to have an excursion every
week or two, having one first on the Cen
trail railroad then on the Savannah,
Florida and Western, the South Bound,
the Charleston and Savannah. and all the
roads coming into the city. The eXcur-
sion would be run up early in the mora
ing, and would leave some time late in
the afternoon. This enterprise has been
talked around very generally and
many of the merchants are heartily in
favor of the plan. 1t is desired TO have
full attendance at the meeting: the more
the better. The plan has been taken in
hand by some of Savannah's most pro
gressive business men, and if they can
secure the cooperation that they ought to
receive from the merchants generally
there is no doubt but that the enterprise
will prove decided success.

CITY BREVITIES.

Some of the school boys who are in the
habit of throwing rocks as they leave the
Barnard street school for their homes are
unaware of the mischief that they some
times do. Yesterday one of them struck
an old lady on the head and hurt her
quite badly. They should be given in
structiOns to be more careful in their
sport.
Several complaints have been made
with regard to the congregation of boot
blacks and small negroes at Liberty and
Barnard streets on Sunday mornings
from 5 o'clock to II. 1t is said that they
make this point their headquarters for
that time, and that they continually dis
turb the peace and quiet of the neighbour
hood by their racket and noise

DIED FROM HIS INJURIES.
Jacob Green Fatally Hurt on the
Il. G. and P.


Jacob Green, colored, died at the Geor
gia Infrmary last night at 9 O'Clock from
injuries received Monday afternoon on the
Florida Central and Peninsular railroad
Green was at work with other hands on
a dirt train near the Ogeechee river
bridge. The hands were shOyeling dirt
from the fat cars onto the track while
the train was slowly moving along Green
was standing al the end of one of the cars,
and lost his balance and fell be-
tween the cars. He was caught
under the wheels and his right
leg was taken of at the knee His left
foot was caught by the flange of wheel,
and the sole was taken neatly OF. Green
was placed on a car and taken to the
junction Of the Savannah, Florida and
Western railway, and was brought in on
the night train on that road. His leg was
bound up with cotton waste to stop the
flow of blood.
At Burroughs, where his sister lived, a
great crowd Of negro women gathered
around the car, screaming and shrieking
at the top of their voices. Green was in
a stupor from the loss of blood at the time,
but the noise made by the women aroused
him andChe began screaming also. The
excitement brought on in this way is
thought TO have FASTENED his death.
The injured man was taken to the
Georgia Iuhrmary on his arrival in
Savannah, where his wounds were at
tended to- He did not rally after reach
ing the hospital however, and died in
tw6nty-four hours.
The Florida Central and Peniusular
has been constructed with very few fatal
accidents so far, this being the second at
this end of the line

TO BUILD TO covINGToN.
The seaboard Company Provides for
the Middle Georgia Road.

A meeting Of the stockholders of the
Seaboard Company was held yesterday at
the company's Offices, No. 137 Bay street.
The meeting was not largely attended,
most Of the stock held by non-residents
being represented by proxy.
Mr.. j. +. Soule, of Philadelphia, was
present, representing about $4,000 Of
stock held by the Spring Garden In
surance Company. Of Philadelphia, and
other corporations and individuals of that
city
President Williams made statement of
the operation of the Middle Georgia and
Atlantic railroad, which, he said, had
been very satisfactory. He recommended
the immediate completion of the road to
CoyingtOn and, by resolution, the direc-
tors were authorized to proceed with the
work.
There are only seven miles of
track to be laid to reach Coving-
ton. Nearly the entire distance is al
ready graded. Mr. Williams expects to
have the work completed by Dec. Is, and
he expects to be running trains from
Mllledgeviile to COyington before Jan. l.
The Middle Georgia and Atlantic will
then be in operation of siXty-siX miles of
railroad, including the Milledeeville and
EatOntOn road which was recently leased.
The line is through the best section of
the state the country being well devel-
oped. Large amounts Of cotton as well as
other products are raised in that
section. The road will then
tap the three large and prosperous
towns, Covington, EatOntOn, Milledgeyille,
besides Shadydale and Machen, which
are also good sized towns.
The principal object for which the
meeting was called was to provide for the
syndicate loan of 100000. which natures
Dec. 20 The directors were authorized
70 make such arrangements as they
thought best to meet the loan. They will
probably arrange to continue the loan.
Another important question which was
considered was the position of the com
pany In the matter of the proposed con-
tract with the city to obtain portion of
hutchinson island for a terminal site
The terms which the city appears dis
posed to offer are known to be unsatis-
factory to the company. The matter was
left to the board of directors.
President Williams declined to express
an opinion last night as to what position
he thought the directors would adopt
upon the question. He said the matter
would probably be brought up at the
next session of council.
The ordinance introduced some time
ago, giving the Seaboard Company the
eastern half of the island upon certain
conditions, is still Enacted upon, and its
consideration will probably be asked by
council z It's next meeting.

SOTTON'S GREATEST DAY.
The Heaviest Receipts at All the Ports
Ever known.

96,z72 Bales Yesterdays Record.
New Orleans Heads the List With

ond-Savannah's Receipts for the
Season, 364, o17 Bales-The Stand
ing of the Ports So Far, New Or
leans First, Savannah Second,
Galveston Third, and Charleston
Fourth.

were the heaviest yesterday in the his
tory of the country-SS,472 bales. The
next largest receipts for any one day
were 81, 943 bales, Tuesday, Oct. 81, 1892,
year ago yesterday.

were u, 1872 bales, more than any other
port except New Orleans, which received
"a, 1873 bales or 90 1914 bales more than the
total amount of all the other Atlantic
ports.
The enormous receipts at New Orleans
are greatly increased by the fact that it
was the end OF the month, when a reca-
pitulation Of the gross receipts are made
and the amounts which have not been
previously reported are added to the days
receipts. This amount is estimated at
about Il, eco bales.
Besides that, Tuesday is always the
banner day in New Orleans from the fact
that the greatest number of river steam
ers arrive on that day, and carry large
quantity Of cotton from the points along
the Mississippi and Red rivers.
Savannah has been holding her own
since the season began on Sept. l, and
is second on the list of ports.
New Orleans has received 49,, 252 bales
so far. Savannah follows with 364, OH
bales. Galveston is third in the list, hay
ing received 354, SAB bales. Charleston is
holding fourth place with 1879, S34 bales,

from 5000 to $1,000 bales. The total re-
ceipts of all the ports up to yesterday

PROMISES TO BE LIVELY.
The Next Meeting of the Railway and
Steamship Association.

StCaIlSnAp hS5OC46b1Ous
The meeting of the executive committee
of the Southern Railway and Steamship
Association in Atlanta next Tuesday
promises to be an interesting one 1t was
found necessary to postpone it a week on
account of the inability of some of the
members from important lines to be pres
ent, and for the reason that a full attend
ance is desired, it looks as ii some impOr-
tant matters are to come up.
1t is said that the question of reducing
the lumber rates may be one of the most
important issues before the committee.
About year ago the rates on lumber
were raised, and ever since the lumber
shippers have been clamoring for a repeal
of the rule passed making this raise
There has not been a meeting of the rate
committee since this rule was passed, but
the lumber shippers have made frequent
appeals for reconsideration of the action
of the association.
The cotton apportioument, it is said,
will also be another important issue be-
fore the committee. Some of the roads
are always making complaints about not
getting their full quota, and number of
these have been lodged recently. The
roads to the North Atlantic ports want
the diferential removed, while those com
ing south want 1t to remain as it is.
lhC question was raised at Ine ldSU
meeting of the rate committee as to
whether or not the roads should adopt a
rule by which no stop-oyer would be al
lowed on winter tourist rates. The rea-
son for allowing no stop-oVer was TO pro-
hibit the projects of scalpers with these
winter cheap rates in cases where stop
overs were allowed. Commissioners laugh-
ter has decided, however, to allow stop
over at intermediate points, the ticket
being good for twenty-four hours more
than the scheduled time
