BAKING POWDER.

Mr.. Wilson," asked Mayor McDonough.
None whatever" answered Policeman
Godbold. THE only i'll treatment MIR.
Wilson received was caused by himself in
trying to jerk away from us
Mr. Osborne asked why he had not
placed Mr.. Wilson on the information
docket instead of compelling him to
submit to the disgrace of being arrested.
Because" said the policeman, II con-
sldered that any man who acted in the
manner in which he did should be ar
rested"
Policeman Davis corroboratcd Police
man Godbold's testimony. He said MIR.
Wilson was very exclted and used words
he ought not to have used. Policeman
Davis was positive no violence had been
done to Mr.. Wilson. The only thing he
saw at all violent was Mr. Wilson'S pull
ing away from Policeman GodbOld's grasp.
MIR Wilson said he was on his way to
the steamer Sunday morning to take a
trip down the river with his son, who had
been arrested the night before when he
met the policeman in Oglethorpe square.
The boy was complaining that his leg was
sore from his treatment and he was not
able to walk fast. He did not know God
bold, but was acquainted with Davis, and
he said to the latter: What rules are

the meantime and begged him to let me

Ed Wilson, another son of the DEFEND
ant, told how brutally, in his opinion, Pc
iceman Godbold had acted in arresting
his father, kissing at him through his
teeth and talking gruffiy. Mr.. Wilson
said that when he expostulated with the
policeman in the barracks Office he was
also threatened with arrest.
Mayor McDonough, in disnissing the
case, told Mr.. Wilson that he was salts
fed that he was at fault in the matter
and had acted entirly too hastily, and that
from the evidence the policemen were not
to blame
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Wilson filed
on the information docket charges against
Policeman Godbold for maltreating his
son. The case will be heard Friday.

THE TRACK WATERING CASES.
The Street Railways Appeal to Come
Before the Council Tonight.

Before the Council Tonight.
The appeal of the street railway com
| panies for modification of the ordinance
relative to watering their tracks and for
a remittance of fines for it's violation, will
come before the city council tonight.
The ordinance requires the street rail
way companies to water their tracks so
! as to effectually keep the dust on the same
laid, and provides penalty of $50 fine
| for every violation Mayor Nc
Donough determined some time
ago to enforce the ordinance,
| which has practically been a dead letter
since its passage. The companies were
put on the docket and were fined. Pend
| ing the hearing of subsequent cases
which were brought against the compa-
mics, an appeal was taken to the city
council, The mayor decided not to bring
up the last information docket cases. He
determined upon this course in view of
the fact that the question is to be con
sidcred by the council with a view to
modifying the ordinance.
The railways claim it is impossible to
effectually lay all the dust by watering
and run their schedules at the same time
without interference
From close investigation it does not
appear that the tracks need watering to
lay the dust A MORNING NEWS man
went over the Belt Line yesterday after
noon during the busiest part of the day
The car ran rapidly over the sandy
portions of the road. While a little dust
was created by the suction Of the car, it
was not enough to form any ground for
complaint
Manager Saussy says he has never had
any complaint in regard to the dusty
tracks. The plank street crossings are
the only points where dust can be picked
up by the cars, and these the company
keeps swept clean as il does the track
wherever sand aCcumulates. The COM
pany keeps o force of men out all the time
sweeping the crossings and the rails, so
there is no necessity for watering 4
Over most of the Belt Line, as with the
other lines, the space between the rails is
nearly sOdded over aud there is no dust
to fly from inside the track. The dust
from passing dray or carriage is four
times as great as from car. Last year,
Supt. Saussy says, the city ordered the
grass between the rails dug up and it was
done ON part of the Barnard street and
other lines
So far as can be seen the sprinkling of
the tracks would be a useless waste of
water and an Inconvenience to the rail
ways and the public
A strong effort will be made tonight
to repeal the obnoxious law A peculiar
feature of the Belt Line cases is the law
yers who conducted it, When the ordi-
nance was passed S. b. Adams Esq, was
counsel for the Belt Line and Capt. H. G,
Cunningham was city attorney Now Capt.
Cunningham is attorney for the Belt Line
and Mr. Adams is city attorney. A long list
of witnesses will be before the council to
testify as to the uselessness of track
watering
If the remission of the fines is denied
I . L
ordinance the matter will be taken into
the courts

MR.. CARTER WILL DO THE WORK.
Mr.. F. NJ. Jones Notifies Him that He
Has Given Up the Undine.

Mr.. F. M. Jones, the ship carpenter
who bought the sunllen Austrian bark,
Undine, and attempted to raise her from
the river channel, notified Capt. Carter
yesterday that he had given up the work
altogether and would make no further
attempt to remove the wreck.
Mr.. Jones was thought at one time in
fair way to succeed in the accomplish
ment of his object, but he seems to have
lacked the proper implements with which
to do the work. He and Mr. Cooley to-
gether, who made the first attempt to
raise the bark, spent somewhere about
s., 600 on the work
Other parties were talking of making
an attempt to raise the bark, but it is
probable that they have all given it up,
as Capt. Carter will advertise tomorrow
for bids for the removal of the wreck
from the channel The wreck has al
ready been in the channel for three
months, which is as long as such an OBJ
struction can remain in navigable chan
mel according to law, without the govern
ment taking a hand in it's removal Capt.
Carter has already received an appropria-
tion sufficient to pay for the removal of
the vessel, and within a few days the
lowest bidder will get the lob

TALK OF THE OIL DEAL.
The Manager Of the TideWater Com
pany Here.

He Says the New York Stockholders
of the Underwater are Interested in
the Standard-He Was Sent Here by
Them but Disclaims Connection
With the Standard-How the Field
Will be Worked.
The change in the management of the
Tidewater Oil Company, incident to the
Standard scoop, has already practically
taken place, and Mr.. r. 3. Backers, late
one of the New York general agents and
travelling men of the Standard company,
is in charge at the headquarters in Savan-
nah as general manager
Mr.. Backers yesterday admitted that
the same parties interested in the
Tidewater company in New York
are also interested in the Standard. But
this has been the case for some time he
added, ''and there is no reason now any
more than for several years to say that
the Tidewater Oil Company has been COB
bled by the Standard Oil Company The
Tidewater will continue business as in
the past"
MR.. HACKERS TALKS.
"But will not its output be controlled
by the Standard, ?" he was asked.
Il don't think So replied Mr.. Back
ers.
''You came here as a representative of
the Standard did you nOtl" was the next
question.
"No." answered the new manager 81
was offered the place, by the Tidewater
company and | accepted"
But the offer came from the New York
Tidewater people, who are also interested
in the Standard
Yes, | guess So" was the reply; "but
you know the Standard company already
has plant in Savannah, and it is hardly
probable 1t would continue to run two
separate concerns if it controlled the
Tidewater"
To a suggestion that combination of
the affairs could be made later Mr. Back
ers was not willing to give his consent,
nor would he make denial. He did not
know.
RISE IN PRICE MAY COME LATER.
Mr.. Bacl1ers was asked when the price
of Oil would go up. There is no indica-
ton of a rise now" he said, "but cannot
answer for the futuren
Such rise in the market would be
good indication that the Standard had
control of things, would it nOt?" he was
asked.
wen, IL mlgnJ, S4lu ne, "DuJ you
must remember that other conditions are
apt to arise to increase the price of oil
any time"
Mr.. Backers is very pleasant gentle
man to talk with, but he has evidently
been too long with the Standard, and too
closely identified with its interests to tell
everything he knows. He has a clever
style of parrying questions aimed too deep
at the internal workings of Standard mat
ters.
MAY REMAIN WITH THE COMPANY.
Mr.. e. B. Martin, the other Standard
oil officer, who came to the city with Mr.
Backers, is enjoying himself at Tybee
Mr.. Blodgett is in Charleston, but
is expected back tomorrow. Mr.
Backers said he thinks it possible both
Mr. BlOdgett and Mr.. Moore will remain
with the Tidewater company under the
new management.
1t is generally believed the deal has been
consummated, despite the denials of the
Standard folks 1t is admitted that Presi-
dent Burton of the Tidewater has become
interested in the Standard and, of course,
that means it would be folly on his part
to keep up a competition with a concern
in which he has made investments.

Gen. c. M. Sorrel, who has been in New
York for some days past, returned yes
terday morning on the City of Augusta.
Gen. Sorrel said that the present sched-

the business at this time of the
year and that the boats would be taken
off one at time for repairs. The Ma
coochee is now lying off for repairs, the
Tallahassee having recently been put
back on the line. After the work on the
Nacoochee is completed the City of Au-
gusta will go in the dry dock for touch
ing up.
The traffic on the ships going north is
very heavy at paesent, large quantities of
truck being shipped to northern ports.
The passenger travel in that direction is
also much heavier than it is coming south.
When work on the New York steamers is
completed the Boston steamers will be
taken off for little repairing.
