AN ACCOUNT OF OPERATIONS.
That is What the Augusta and Sa
vanuah Directors Want.

That is What the Augusta and sa-
vanuah Directors Want.
The directors Of the Augusta and Sa-
vannah railroad, who held meeting here
Monday to take some action with regard
TO the amount of rental which was paid
to their president by the Central railroad,
have asked for a further accounting from
the Central railroad, and they viii bold
another meeting to consider the matter in
the near future.
1t is their opinion that some matters
have been charged TO their road which
wonld more properly belong elsewhere or
which ought not to have been charged.
They knew the southern roads have all
had a bad season especially during the
sumner and autumn months and
they consequently did not ex-
the order of the court, the full amount of
the rental according TO the terms of the
lease. But when they saw that the
amount coming TO them was not half of
what the semi annual rental amounted to
it is needless TO say they were very much
surprised. Some of them have not hest
tated to express their surprise.
WANT TO KNOW THE EARNINGS.
What they want to get al now is the ac-
count of operations. They want TO see
what have been the gross earnings and
what money has been charged to operat-
ing expenses. The road does not owe a
dollar of indebtedness, and has never be-
fore, in its history, failed to make the
amount of its rental. It is said, however,
in explanation by some that the Augusta
people have been working against Savan-
nah OF late, and have been turning all the
tratie possible down to Charleston and
Port Royal By the Port Royal and Au-
gusta railroad. 1t remains to be seen
what the directors Of the road will do.

THE KIND OF POLICE.
FOUR CASES TRIED.

The United States Court Has Some IL
lioit Distillers to Deal With.
The United States court had four
whisky cases to deal with yesterday. Jim
Sheridan, who lives near Herndon in
Emanuel county, was tried for keeping an
Illicit distillery keeping an illicit still set
up, and for working in an illicit still.
The case against Sheridan was a pretty
witnesses in the case that he had had
something to do with the still which he
was charged with operating and had also
admitted having something to do with it
on the occasion of his preliminary exam
ination. The jury, however, found him
guilty of working in a still only, which is
nothing but misdemeanor, the other of
fences being punishable by sentence to
the penitentiary. He was defended by
Mr.. Edward S. Elliott. Judge Speer re
served sentence until this morning.
Jefferson Holly was also charged with
working in a still in Emanuel county.
The evidence against him showed that he
had made only small amount of whisky
in tin can which he used for still He
was found guilty, but in consideration of
the smallness of his offense and for other
reasons, Judge Speer suspended sentence
indefinitely Holly was defended by Hon
Alfred Harrington.
j. j. Jones and Calvin Jones, charged
with running an Illicit distillery in Eman-
uel county, both pleaded guilty to work
ing at still, and fne of 500 and SEN
tence of one month in Jail was imposed on
each of them They were told, however.
that they would be given the right to ap,
ply for suspension of the sentences at
the end of one week. They were defended
by Mr.. William Clifton

ROBBED IN DAYLIGHT.
Thomas Cooley's Residence on Indian
Street Ransacked by Thieves.

Street Ransacked by Thieves.
The residence of Mr.. Thomas Cooley, at
No. 10 Indian street, was entered and
ransacked by thieves yesterday afternoon
between and 5 O'Clock
All the members of the family left the
house early in the afternoon, Mr.. Cooley
going to his place of business and Mrs
Cooley taking the children out for an arr
ing. 1t is SUPPOSED that the front door
was left unlocked. The thief, or thieves,
are believed to have been in
the neighborhood and to have
seen the family leave the neigh borhood
Having seen the family depart, they took
advantage of the opportunity TO enter and
ransack the house
When the members Of the family re-
turned to the house, late in the afternoon,
they were surprised to find the rooms in
a torn up and disordered condition The
bed clothing and furniture were scattered
about, and bureau drawers and trunks
open.
The thieves had gone through all the
bedrooms on the upper floor. The
search had evidently been for
money only, and a most thorough
search they had made of it. The marble
top of bureau, the center drawer of
which was locked, had been removed and

to the drawer. From this they obtained
several English sovereigns and several
dollars in silver, belonging to MIR. Cooley.
Some iewelry which was in the drawer
with the money was left. 1t was evil
IDENTIFY the intention of the thieves to
take nothing which might lead to their
detection. Nothing else was missed from
the house.
MIR. Cooley notified Detective Hanley of
the robbery, and the latter is now en-
gagged upon the case. The sovereigns are
about the size of 5-dollar gold piece, but
the difference in the lettering and en-
craving is readily noticeable. They may
lead to the detection of the thieves.

TO BRING MORE TRADE.
Retail Merchants Discussing a New
Plan@

The retail merchants who were inter
ested in the merchants excursions last
month are at work on a new plan to
bring the people from the country here to
trade.
An informal meeting was held recently
at which various plans were discussed.
One which is being considered is to create
a fund, out of which every person
who comes from the country
and trades a certain amount with those
merchants who are members of the Trade
Association, shall be refunded his railroad
fare.
Other plans are under consideration,
and will be discussed at the next meeting
of the Trade Association.
All of the subscriptions TO the trade ex-
cursions for January will be refunded to
the subscribers, as no excursions will be
run this month.
