WILL REPORT MONDAY.
MAJ. Blandford VIII Examine Thor
oughly the Situation at DUNDEE
swamp.

MAJ. Blandford VIII Examine Thor
oughly the Situation at Dundee
swamp.
Mai Blandford viii probably make a
report Monday on the situation Of affairs
in the Dundee USwamp where the
waters ofI the Ogeechee canal were
turned into it by authority Of the city
officials. The reports will be made at the
request Of Chairman Carson Of 1.-THE
drainage committee.
It seems that the sanitary board order
ed the canal company sometime ago to
drain the canal and put II in proper san
itary condition within mile OF the city.
The company, adopting the easiest method
damned up the canal Just above the Tel
fair bridge, and thus caused an accumu-
latiOn of stagnant water in the canal
above the bridge Last July it was
noticed that the stagnant waters were
plling up at this point, and Superinten-
dent Of Drainage Carmichael ordered a
trunk put in just at this point, which
threw the water of the canal into Dundee
swamp. The effect of this is seen from
the recent report made by Maj BlanfOrd
The stagnant water has been piled up on
private lands through which the county
has not vet obtained a right of way for
the Dundee canal. Mai Blandford was
requested by Commissioner Carson to in
vestigate the matter, and it is upon this
that he Will make his report.
Commissioner Carson says there is no
conflict whatever between the city cOun-
Gil and the commissioners in regard to
this matter, but that there is liable to be
some trouble between the city and the
land owners there 1t is intended in some
way to have the matter remedied.
Maj. Blandford thinks the city officials
should have conferred with the county
commissioners or the county engineer,
and they could have been directed what
action to take without producing the evil
results.
The result has been to pile up the wa
ter in Dundee swamp, and make the work
of draining it heavier, whereas it is said
that the trunks might have been put in
higher up the canal and portion of the
water thrown into other swamps Com
missioner Carson says that City Engineer
VIM has always held that as much of
this water should be moved away from
the city as possible, and that what has
been done is inconsistent with his posi-
ton

TO PUSH THE WORK NOW.
No Further Delay in Building the
Florida Northern,


Major Greene, chief engineer ofrthe Flor
ida Northern, left last night to inspect
the work along the line, after spending a
couple Of days in the city. He informed
a MORNING News reporter yesterday that
the work on the new line is being pushed
as rapidly as possible now, and he expects
to have the road completed by Nov /.
The continued heavy rains of the last
several weeks have interfered greatly
with the work, but it is being pushed as
fast as possible. A half mile of track
was laid at this end Of the line yesterday,
and more rapid progress will be made
from now on, il the weather permits.
Mai. Greene has just completed the re-
organization of the track forces, many of
the hands employed by the contractors
who had charge of this work until re-
Gently being worthless and untitled for
the work. AS the contractors were MAX
ing such slow progress, the railroad COM
pany, as announced in the MORNING News
some days ago, found it necessary
to take charge of the track laying
The Atlanta Supply Company is
still doing the grading. The company
will be urged to push its work and track
will be laid as fast as the line is graded
The bridge across the Ogeechee river is
ready for the rails to be laid, and Mai
Greene said the bridge across the st.
Mary's river will be completed by Tues
day. Maj. Greene says that unless fever
should break out in the camps there is no
doubt the line win be completed by
Nov l.
The denial by President Duval that the
road had been sold or that there had been
any attempts to sell it, is borne out by
the active manner in which the work is
being pushed. There need be no appre-
hension that Savannah will not be in the
enjoyment Of a new line to Florida before
the fall is half gone.
A connection will be made with the
Central railroad by the track from the
waterworl1s and the Savannah business
turned over to the Central railroad by
that route.

AN APPEAL FOR oHRIsToPHER.
His Brother Fruit Dealers Circulating
Petition in His Behalf.

The fruit dealers of the city are getting
up petition to Judge MacDonell, request
ing him to interfere in behalf of V.
Christopher, who was recently sentenced
to pay fine of $3.50, or spend six months
in Jail for keeping open his place on Sun
day, in order to secure a reduction of the
fine.
The fruit dealers urge that Christopher
was only doing what numbers of others,
fruit dealers, druggists and others, were
doing in keeping open his place and that
he had no idea of committing a serious
violation of the law. They do not think
he should be made an example of when
he was following a common custom. They
will urge that the fruit dealers are all in
debt becauss of the poor business this
summer on account of the scarcity of
money and that consequently they
are unable to help their brother mer-
chant who is in trouble. Christopher,
they say, cannot raise the money to pay
his tne because his place is already mort
gagged for more than il is worth. They
say too, that Christopher has a widowed
mother and three sisters depending upon
him for support.
II is said that nearly all the members
of the Jury which convicted Christopher
have signed the petition. There are a
great many people who think the penalty
imposed upon Christopher unnecessarily
severe and the petition will probably have
q number Of signers.

STILL HOLDING IT'S OWN.
Savannah Real Estate Not Affected by
Money Stringency.

''In spite Of the general prevalence of
dull times Savannah real estate is holding
its own, " said Mr.. G. H. Dorsett yester-
day
The people here all seem to be able to
hold what property they have aud as a
consequence very little is offered now.
They all name their price and say If you
can't get that don't SELL On account of
the fact that money is scarce and real
estate owners are holding their property
for their own price, there are very few
sales at present.
people are buying, however, when
they can find what they think is a good
bargain, and in fact just at present more
people are putting their money into real
estate than in stocks and bonds. know
Of man who had $50, 900 to invest in Sa-
Vannah real estate few days ago, but he
could ind no offers that he considered
cheap enough, and no sellers that would
come TO his terms. The fact is, consider
ing the circumstances, that real estate in
savannah is holding its own wonderfully
well "

yesterday. Mr.. Harveyis at the Savannah
hospital, where he is being attended by
DR.. Boyd His accident is a very serious
one, the thigh bone of the left leg being
broken.
MIR Harvey was recently appointed
assistant yardmaster Of the Central rail-
road and had only just entered upon the
duties of his position. He is a popular
member of the Guards and a number
of the members Of his battalion called to
see him yesterday at the hospital.
The report that Mr. Geo. w FAIRIES,
who fell from the porch with Mr. Har-
vey, had several ribs broken and remain
ed unconscious for several hours, was in

TOO MANY RoBBERIEs.
Residents of the Southern Portion of
the City Stirred Up.


the City Stirred Up.
House robberies in the southern part of
the city are becoming of too frequent oc-
currence. Every few nights some house
is entered by thieves, usually by an open
window or door, and is raided. Some of
these thefts are by negro women, but the
majority are by trained thieves The
police have captured a number of them in
the last few months, but have not by any
means broken up the robberies.
Some time during Thursday night or
early yesterday morning a house on
Henry street was entered by the smash
ing of a window blind opening into the
kitchen. The thief lifted the window
and crawled in and ran sacked the lower
part of the house
1t was evidently a hungry raider, for
very little besides food was taken The
refrigerator was emptied and a dozen
bottles of beer and several cans of fruit
were taken from the store room. The
silver in the china closet was untouched.
The thief unlocked the kitchen door from
the inside ana walked out.
A night or two ago a house on New
Houston street was robbed of three UNI
brellas, several hats and a coat taken
from the hall rack, it is supposed, while
the family was at supper. The hall door
opening on piazza was left open and the
thief slipped in and took everything the
rack contained

A SLAP AT THE AGENTS.
The Effort of the Committee to Secure
Lower Insurance Rates.

Lower Insurance Rates.
The New York Journal of Commerce
and Commercial Bulletin of Aug. has
the following about Savannah in its in
surance column:
II is rumored that the Savannah agents
have succeeded in persuading the executive
committee of the S. E. 7. A to vote
a salary of 81 800 per annum to a stamp
clerk of their own choice. Some
members think that the stamp clerks
should be selected by the manager of the
compact, or by the executive committee of
the association, as heretofore, and not by a
coterie of agents representing their own in
terests. The same agents who evolved this
scheme are, according to the Savannah
NEWS a committee to have the utterly in
adequate rates on cotton retained for another
year. The Savannah agents, strange to say,
want as their stamp clerk the same party
who was in charge in Birmingham when the
entire records were lost.
The insurance authority of the Bull
letin speaks in rather a spiteful strain,
and appears to regard the recent work of
Sayannah's committee in securing a re-
duction Of rates in an intirely different
light from that in which it is viewed in
Savannah. He appears to think the COM
mittee was too successful. The Savannah
business men, on the contrary, are claim
ing that the committee did not accom-
plish enough, and that the rates are not
at all satisfactory. 1t is true that
the Savannah agents have been
given the privilege of selecting
a stamp clerk at salary of 81 500 a
year, which is what they have needed for
some time
Mr.. Fred A. Williams, formerly of
Birmingham, has been offered the posi-
tion, but has not as yet accepted. The
Bulletins fling at Mr.. Williams is en-
tirely unjust, as he was in no way re-
sponsible for the loss of the records at
Birmingham.
