WALKED OFF WITH HIS COAT.
Broker Fred NJ. Hull Loses a Coat,
Watch and Railroad Ticket,

Broker Fred M. Hull Loses a Coat,
Watch and Railroad Ticket.
The contagion of thievery seems to be
spreading in every direction. 1t has come
to the point where one theft a day is
a comparatively small average.
Yesterday afternoon about O'Clock, a
sneak thief boldly walked into the office
of Mr.. Fred M. Hull, the broker on the
second floor of the Provident building,
and walked off with his coat. With the
coat, the thief carried away MIR. Hull's
gold watch and chain, and a suburban
Communication ticket of the Central rail
road.
Mr.. Hull had been in his office for al
most an hour before the theft occurred,
and had stepped out for few moments
on business not thinking to close the
door. In fact this would not seem
necessary as there are half a dozen Off
ces on the same floor which are almost al
ways open and occupied. When he re-
turned, however, the coat and its con-
tents were gone.
Later IN the afternoon a tall negro,
about % years old, entered Muhlberg's
pawnshop and tried to dispose of the
watch chain. Detective Wetherhorn was
notified, and soon had the negro, who
proved to be William Williamson, from
Augusta, In tow. Williamson came down
on last Sundays Augusta excursion, and
has been loafng around Savannah ever
since. The watch was found in his pos
session. Williamson was committed to iail
by Justice Naughtin.

UP-R1vER IMPROVEMENTS.
The Government Work Done Above
the City.

the City.
Above the city where only those who
travel on up-river steamers have an oppor-
tunity to see what is going on, there
has been a great amount of work done
lately-on river improvement.
AT the northern end of Kings island,
which is the head Of that branch of the
river which flows in front of the city,
the width of the river has been in
creased about one-third by dredging off
the end of the island so as to give the
current wider opening for entering the
river.
At this point, which is known as the
"Cross-Tides, the government, about
forty years ago, built dam across the
back river, for the purpose of diverting
the current into the front, or Savannah,
river channel. Nothing further was done
toward perfecting this plan for increas-
ing the volume of water flowing in front
of the city, excepting some repairs to the
dam at the Gross Tides" until the pres
ent work was undertaken.
The dredging and ietties from Kings
island to Kinsey's mill have resulted in
removing the sand banks above the
Central railroad wharves, and have made
a deep channel as far up as McAlpins.
In dredging the river opposite the old
water works quite a find" was made in
the way of deposits of fossil bones,
sharks teeth and PEBBLES, indications of
phosphate deposits, which may lead to
important results in the future.

The Company Declares It's Regular
Semi-annual S1.75 per Share.
The board of directors of the Chatham
Real Estate and Improvement Company
yesterday declared a semi-annual divi-
dend of $1.75 per share on series A and B.
payable on and after July 10. This divi-
dend is equal to per cent. year. The
shareholders of series A will also receive
81 additional as part of the accruments
from the real estate investments of the
company.
The company is purely mutual, no
business being done except with mem
bers, who must be shareholders, and the
surplus earnings or the profits from loans
and investments are returned to the
shareholders in dividends. It's income is
principally derived from loans to mem
bers TO build or buy houses, and there are
now 1853 such loans in force.
Since its inauguration nine years ago
the company has paid back to its mem
bers Sl93, 400 in dividends, and it is safe
to say that no cooperative organization
has done more than the Chatham Real
Estate and Improvement Company to
build up Savannah. It's management has
been conservative and Just and at the

A colored longshoreman named G. G.
Allen was sent TO jail yesterday by Justice
Naughtin on a warrant charging him with
attempting to make criminal assault
upon Marian Harris, 10-year-old negro
girl who lives at 2414 St. Gaul street.
1t is charged that Allen took the girl
into the city Wednesday afternoon and
while away from her home enticed her to
his room on Pine street, where, according
to the girls statement, the assault was
attempted. She gave a graphic descrip-
ton of what took place in Aliens room,
and her account led to the charges being
preferred against him. She stated that
he bought her pair of shoes and some
stockings while down town, and accord
ing to her story he used this as an argu-
ment in his allurements. Allen stoutly
protested his innocence and was very in
dignant over his arrest. His case will
probably be token before the grand jury
this afternoon.
