which was forecasted in the MORNING

MIR. Calhoun T. Morel, who has been
the general accountant of the Plant sys-

Mr. George S. Haines, chairman of the
committee in charge of the fund sub
scribed for the relief of the family of the
late Policeman Neve, requests the MORN
ING NEWS to state that the delay in max
ing proper disposition of the money is
owing to the committee not having been
able so far to find a suitable and low
priced house in the lower part of the city
for Mrs. Neve, she having expressed a
wish to secure such location, where she
could earn livelihood
The committee is anxious to comply
with Mrs. Neve's wines as far as possible,
but at the same time desires to reserve the
larger part of the amount subscribed for
her future support.
Mrs. Neve is still receiving her hus-
bands salary, the law providing that
where policemen lose their lives in the
service, their widows shall receive their
pay for six months thereafter.

THE Law UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Coles Case Will Be Thrown Out of
Court by the Decision.

SOhAN ~ INC AS6OlSAOAs
The decision of the supreme court rem
dered yesterday declaring the law com
Polling railroad companies to give their
reasons for discharging employees, when
such reasons are demanded, under penalty
of a $4,000 fine, unconstitutional will be of
interest In Savannah, as it throws out of
court case brought by Cole against the
Savannah, Florida and Western Railroad
Company, in which he stated that he had
demanded the reasons for his discharge
which were refused him, and he claimed
he was entitled TO the $1,000 penalty,
The case was brought in the city court,
and the point Of unconstituti onality was
made by MIR. w. S. Chisholm, who ap-
peared for the defendant. Judge Mac
Donell overruled the motion TO dismiss
the suit on this ground, but later sus-
tanned demurrer TO the suit on other
grounds. The case has been filed again,
but has not been brought up on account
of the fact that the question of the con-
stitutionality of the law was pending
before the supreme court in case which
was carried up from the city court of At
Ianta.
From the account in the dispatch to the
MORNING News it seems that one of the
principal points on which the decision of
the supreme court was based was one
NAAcu w dS nOb iutO az 1CnRb0 De-
fore Judge MacDoneu. That is, that the
right of silence except under judicial
proceedings is collateral with the right of
free speech, and that person artificial
or real cannot be forced to give informa-
ton for private purposes by legislative
enactment.
Several other points were made bear
ing upon the constitutional question in
volved among which were the fact that
the caption of the act differed materially
from the body or substance, and that the
fine imposed for refusal TO give such
reasons when demanded was excessive.
Mr. Chisholm made strong argument on
these points, and at the request of some of
the attorneys in the case which was
carried before the supreme court he filed
with that court brief on the unconsti-
nationality of the law. Mr.. Cole worked
hard for his case but the bill is no longer
a law and he will have to give it up.

But 1t Didn't Prevent His Being

The negro Aleck Dorset, whose arrest
by Detective Wetherhorn on a charge of
suspicion of having been connected with
some of the frequent burglaries in the
southern part of the city was announced
in the MORNING News yesterday, was re-
leased yesterday morning on bond he
being his own surety, as there was no
good evidence on which to hold him in

The circumstances which led to Dor
sett's arrest were strong enough if any
one could have been found to Identify the
money that he had on. his person, and
which is now in possession of Detective
Wetherhorn. Dorsett had IS 40 in his
vest pocket, while in white cloth pouch
tied around his leg he had S17 in bills, to-
gether with Canadian half penny.
Dorsett was arrested as he started to
board car on Barnard street near the
market. Some parties stated that they
had seen him with about $40 on his per
son, and others said they had seen him
playing craps for 81 a shot. This was
enough to create a strong suspicion that
he had stolen the money, and the arrest
was made, Dorset claimed he had been
at work in a hotel at Grove City, Fla.
where he said he had been paid $50
month. Besides the money there was
found on his person what the negroes call
a 'con1ure" consisting of piece of red
flannel in which was sewed up lot of
roots, herbs, bones and similar rubbish.

haps, can be done only by the Canadian

ST. vINoENT,s ALuMNAE.
The Reunion of Graduates a Very
Pretty Affair.

One of the most interesting features of
after school life is the reunion of grad
yates at their alma mater, where they
are surrounded by the scenes of younger
days, which are always pleasant to recall.
No happier crowd of school girls, or
rather those who were once school girls
ever assem- bled than the score and ten
alumn@ of the ST. Vincent academy who
met last night to review the pleasant
memories of days spent within its walls.
A beautiful and appropriate programme
was prepared for their annual assemb-
ling, replete with literary and musical
features.
The hall in which the young ladies as
sem bled had been beautifully decorated
with palms and flowers by the sisters.
The meeting of the Alumnal Society was
called TO order at $3.50 O'Clock by the
president, Mrs. p. H. Rice, of Augusta,
who delivered an address of greeting
and welcome to the thirty young ladies
assembled. The address was written
with artistic taste and beautiful concep-
past school life which graduates love to
treasure.
An address by Miss Hefferman
was read in very creditable
manner. An instrumental solo by Miss
Hays, was beautifully and artistically
rendered. A vocal duet, sung by Misses
Savarese and Brennan, was one of the
prettiest features of the evening. Essays
on ''Our Association" and The Octavi-
ans" were read by Miss Mcmahon and
Mrs. Nelson. An instrumental solo by
Miss Goette and duet by the Misses
Smart, were both well rendered
The vocal solo, "Say Au Revoir, But
Not Good bye" was very prettily sung by
Miss Dooner. Miss Josie Mcmahon was
named by the president to deliver the an
pual address at the meeting in 1895.
1.-The presentation of the alumne colors
and the address by the honorary presi-
dent, RI. Rev. Bishop Becker was the
feature of the evening. The young ladies
then adjourned 10 the banquet hall where
an elaborate repast had been prepared
for them by the sisters, and most de-
lightful evening was spent.
The commencement exercises of st.
Vincent's will take place Thursday night
and an elaborate programme has been
prepared.

various kinds, most of which were suits
on notes and accounts, while among them
were several who want damages for in
iuries of one kind and another
L. w Beasley fled suit against James
Dorsey for 81 900 damages. charging him
with defamation of character. He states
that Dorsey made an affidavit before
Justice Andrews, of the Seventh district,
charging him with larceny after trust,
which charge was proven to be unfOunded
on his preliminary trial in that court. He
says the warrant against him was sworn
out maliciously and without any cause,
wherefore he wants damages to the ex-
tent of 81 goo.
Jacob Baum brought two suits against
the Commercial Union Assurance Com
pany, Limited, of London. He sued in
one for the use of the c. G. Grace Com
pany, OF Waycross, on a policy for $500,
which he states the company refuses to
pay, though the premises insured were
destroyed by fire Jan. 26, 1894. In the
other suit he sues for the use of Elijah
Asplnwall, of Paterson. Pierce county,
Ca, on policy for the same amount.
$500, on store and stock of goods in that
town, which was destroyed by fire Jan.
26, 1894
A suit against the Electric Railway
Company was filed by Frank Murphy.
VINO claims $1,000 damages, on account of
being, as he says, forcibly elected from a
car on that line. He states that he paid
Tor passage on the car, and that when he
attempted to get off he was assaulted by
the conductor and motorman without
cause and was beaten over the head with
brake handle: He is represented by
Messrs. Sea brook & Morgan.
Col. Charlton II. Way, as trustee for
Mrs. Francis M. Way, filed suit against
the Royal Insurance Company of England,
for the amount of an insurance policy on
his residence which was destroyed by
hre last February, in which he also asks
Tor damages and attorneys fees. The
policy in question was for $1,000, this
being the principal amount for which
he brings suit. His two-story res
idence at Beaulieu, on the Vernon river,
was burned down last February. He
states he has demanded payment of the
company, which has been refused. He
claims under the Georgia laws, in addi-
ton to the amount of the policy, $3.50
damages and $3.50 attorneys fees. q He is
represented by Messrs. Nicolson g. Nc
Kethan.
The suit of ]. ]. Waller, by his father,
George Waller, against the Savannah,
Florida and Western railroad for $4,000
for the loss of his leg, comes up for its
third trial in the city court this morning
The first jury gave the defendant YER
dict and new trial was granted by the
supreme court On the last trial of the case
young Waller received verdict of SlO,-
900, and new trial was granted by
Judge MacDonell. The case is one of
considerable interest and will doubtless
90 to the supreme court before it is de-
cided finally.
