PROGRESS OF THE DRAINAGE.
The Work That is Being Accomplished
Around the City.

Inspector Desvergers, of the Citizens
Sanitary Association, in his report to the
committee on public health of the associ-
alton for last week, in reference to the
drainage, says that the county commits
sioners are having excellent and most
beneficial drainage work done in the i'm
mediate vicinity of the city
The convict force is divided into three
detachments, one ofwhich has been work
ing west of the city and is now
southeast of it, and one south, and an
other southwest of it. All necessary old
drains are being reopened and new ones
cut where needed. On the south west the
work has been brought across Ogeechee
avenue up to the corporate limits. The
Minis swamp canal has been cleaned out
and deepened and widened from the city
eastward, embracing the system of old
drains which run through the tributaries
of the swamp into the Minis lands up into
the Baker tract, and land adjoining it,
and the old Sloan tract and the South
over lands.
All the couvicts which have been work
ing on the Dundee canal have been put in
camp on high, healthy pine ridge south
OF the city, between Southover junction
and the Ogeechee road, convenient to the
territory in which they are employed,
and they are progressing rapidly with
the work
The inspector reports in reference to
the Minis swamp canal, that the portion
OF 1t which commences at the point where
the convict force began its work, just
west of the Ogeechee road culvert, and
runs TO the Springfield plantation back
dam, is in very bad condition and ought
to be at once cleaned and widened and
graded in order TO render the part of it
upon which the county has been at work
efficient. This portion of the canal is
located on the city's property and the
county engineer did not feel authorized to
invade it with his force; and the inspec-
tor suggests that as it would require but
few days to do the work with the con-
Wet force, the city authorities should con-
slider the eXpediency of arranging with
the county commissioners to have the
work done by the convicts at once, as it
is matter which involves the health of
the inhabitants of the southwestern sec
ton of the city seriously
The inspector reports that very impor-
tant drains are being opened south of
Estill avenue, by the detachment now
working in that vicinity, but that it is
discouraging to see how rapidly these
drains are being impaired by the treading
OF hundreds of cows ranging daily over
the lands.
The inspector says that the citizens
would be surprised to see the amount of
drainage work accomplished since this
movement of the convict force around the
city. In his next report he will give
more detailed account OF the work.

THEY WANTED PROCESS"

Complaints of the Fruit Dealers
Against Whom Indiotm snts Were
Found.
Several of the fruit dealers, against
whom indictments were found by the
grand jury of the city court Friday after
noon, called at the Office of Solicitor Cen
eral Frazer yesterday to lodge their COM
plants.
A statement appeared in the MORNING
News with reference to those whose
names were before the grand jury, but
who were not indicted to this effect:
But they were given process and were
not indicted This should have read:
But they were green grocers and were
not indicted
The fruit dealers were indignant that
they should have been indicted for doing
business on the Sabbath day while the
others were not. The fruit dealers who
called on the solicitor, wanted to know
why those who were not indicted We're
given process while they were not
They claimed they had as much right to
process as the others. The solicitor gen
eral was not aware of the nature OF the
complaint, but explained the ma tter as
well as possible under the circum-
stances.

NAY CUT ON ALL LINES.
A Scent Fare on the City and Su-
buTbal System Probable.

Director Hartman Says It Is Con-
templated, But the Matter is Not
Yet Fully Settled-More Talk of a
Consolidation and Several Confer
ences Held.
Mr.. j. n. Hartman, managing director
Of the City and Suburban railway, says
that travel has nearly doubled on the
West Broad street line since the reduc-
ton of fare to cents. There was large
travel on that line yesterday and last
night.
''The experiment has been a very salts
factory one" said Mr. Hartman.
Mr.. Hartman was asked if the reduc-
tion would be extended to the other lines
of the system.
Il think very likely it will be-" he re-
piled. we have not fully made up our
minds yet, but it is possible that the re-
duction may be extended 10 all the lines
in few days"
If general fare of cents is made on
the City and Suburban lines it is very
likely that the Electric railway viii fol-
low suit. This will mean cheap riding for
the people of Savannah. The effect
would be to largely increase the patron
age Of the street railways.
Some informal conferences have been
held between the representatives of the
two systems, with the idea of resuming
the deal, but no steps to that end have
been taken as yet.

HARDsH1Ps oFYoUNo LAWYERS
Adversities They Sometimes Meet

Adversities They Sometimes Meet
When Appointed to Defend Grim
inals.
The hardships with which young at
torneys meet are proverbial Not the
least of these perhaps is the conduct of
pauper criminal cases which they are
often appointed to defend by the courts.
This work they must of course do gratis.
and while they are generally relieved
from all costs in such cases, the burden
sometimes falls on them on account of
some slight error which they may make
in drawing a paper.
Not long ago young attorney here was
appointed to defend a pauper charged
with cheating and swindling. The de-
PENDANT was convicted. A motion for
new trial was overruled. A bill of excep-
tons was filed and the case taken to the
supreme court. To relieve himself of all
costs in the case the attorney wanted the
prisoner to- sign a pauper affidavit
which is the proper proceeding in such
cases. The court refused to allow
the prisoner to be brought into the CITY to
sign the attidavit before notary public
No notary could be secured to 90 to the
convict camp for the purpose unless a
large fee were paid him. The attorney
had the prisoner sign the affidavit in the
who all signed il as witnesses of his sig
nature. In this shape. the case went to
the supreme court. The decision of the
lower court was sustained and because
the signature of the prisoner was not
witnessed by notary, the costs in the
case were assessed against the young
attorney.
Another case which was felt even
harder than this occurred not long ago
The attorney who was appointed TO de-
fend the case wrote in the pauper affida-
Wit which the prisoner signed that the
prisoner lis not able to give bond and pay
costs" Carrying out the strict prin-
ciples of the law, the supreme court held
that this statement should have
been in the distinctive instead of
conjunctive form, or in other
words should have read ais not
able to give bond nor pay the costs" For
this enormous and inexcusable" error
the supreme court decided that the costs
must be assessed against the attorney, as
the pauper affidavit was not in good form
These are some of the difficulties with
which young attorneys sometimes have
to contend, but the letter of the law is
ineXOrable.

A warrant was sworn out yesterday at
the court Of Justice M. Naughtin.
charging A. J. Dearcey with personating
an officer. Dearcey was arrested by De-
tective Wcatherhorn, but gave bond for

pany authorizing him to make such col

He went to the house of Annie Ashby.
at 10 Lincoln street, to collect a bill which
she owed for furniture. She owed the
company, as she claims, SO. She asserts
that he asked her for this amount and his
fee of 50, stating that he was a constable,
to prove which he produced the GER
tlhcate given him by the A j.
Miller Company. When she asked him
where his Office was, he said
it was out on the Ogeechee road She
then told him she would pay him So if he
would come back for it at l o'clock, and
that she would give him the balance Mon
day. Not satisfied with this he levied on
the furniture, some of which had already
been paid for She says her husband was
sick in bed at the time but that he was
made to get out, and the bed, together
with her trunk, were taken away.
She made her complaint to Justice
Naughtin, who took out a possessory
warrant for the furniture. which was re-
turned to her after she paid the Sc due
Dearcey, however, was held until he had
given bond for his appearance to the

stable authorized to collect a fee and
make levy.

TOURISTS GOING RAPIDLY.
They VIII Have Pretty Nearly All
Gone in a Few Days.

zone In q Few Days.
The tourist season in the south has
practically closed already. For the last
ten or fifteen days the north bound vesti-
bule trains have been crowded to their
fullest capacity with people hurrying
northward who have been seeking health
and pleasure in South Georgia and
Florida
Nearly all the prominent Florida hotels
VIII close this week. The hotel at Rock
ledge closed last week and the hotel
people. about twenty in all, passed
through Savannah Friday, taking the
steamer Birmingham for New York.
Inc first hotel special train by the
Plant system win 60 north on April 10,
and a second special for hotel help will
follow on April Is.
There will not be many hotel people
left IN Florida after the latter date.
Inc season was not so good a one with
the Florida hotels as ii was last year.
Inc number Of guests was not quite so
great, but the chief loss was in the fact
thaI the tourists came later and left
earlier than they did last season. The
season Is closing about two weeks earlier
IMAM IL did last year, chiefly on account
OF the very warm weather that prevailed
during the greater portion Of March. The

manned Two or three weeks longer.
The De Soto has had a good season."
said MIR. Powers last night The season
was very dull in the beginning. and the
prospects were not encouraging. There
was decided change in February, how
ever and for the last several weeks we
have had all we could handle The peo-
pie poured in on US SO fast that
we could hardly place them.
Our register during March averaged over
100 names a day, occasionally reaching as
high as 200. If the season would keep up
at this rate as long as it did last year it
would make it the best season we have
ever had. The season lasted until April
20 with us last year 1t win probably
end fully ten days earlier this year The
crowds are already beginning to thin
out"
Il see that Savannah is promised tour
lst rates next year." said Mr.. Powers,
III this IS done ana the fact properly ad-
yertised by the railroads, the De Soto
will not be able to hold the people who
will come here. 1t would take ten hotels
like the De Soto to accommodate them.
Savannah is increasing in popularity with
the tourists every wear, and if the rail
roads treat US right the building of an
other hotel like the De Soto will be

WILL CONSIDER THE PRESENT
MENTS.
The County Commissioners Will Dis
cuss a Whipping Boss at Their Meet

The County Commissioners Will Dis
cuss a Whipping Boss at Their Meet
ing.
At the next regular meeting Of the
county commissioners, which takes place
a week from next Wednesday, the special
presentment of the grand jury of the city
court will be taken up for discussion and
probably for action.
Commissioner Charlton was asked for
an opinion about the matter Yesterday.
He did not care to express his opinion
about the presentments, but said they
would be taken up for a fun discussion by
The board at the next regular meeting.
The subject of the whipping of convicts
has been before the board before, but no
definite action has ever been taken on it.
Solicitor General Fraser was Of like
opinion with the grand jury. he thought
there should be a whipping boss for the
convicts sent up for misdemCanors TO the
county gang just as there is for the pene-
Tertiary camps. The whipping boss at
the state camps is appointed By the gov
ernOr, and the guards and lesees are not
allowed to have anything to do with the
whipping. The solicitor general said that
he is opposed to this promis-
cuous whipping of convicts by
any of the officers at the camp
as it left too much latitude for brutality
He said in answer to the objection that
there were three camps which would
probably require the appointment of
about five whipping bosses, that the cap
tain of each gang might be appointed the
whipping boss and no one allowed to adj
minister the punishment but him.
Maj Blanford, when asked about the
matter, interposed the objection also that
there are three camps at which the
gangs are so often divided that it would
require the appointment Of five whip
ping BOSSES al least 10 do the work. He
favored a remedy for the present situa-
ton, however, and suggested that it
might be well from time to time to APP
point some of the guards or officers at
each camp to do the whipping. He said
it would hardly do to appoint the captain
of each gang the whipping boss, saas
this work would interfere with his other
duties. He said the right of complaint is
given to each convict. When whipped if
he thinks he has been brutally treated
the convict can lay his case before Mai
Blandford and have it investigated If his
statement is found true the guard who
does the whipping is punished accord
ingly. Mai. Blandford says that in
Bunge's case no complaint with regard to
brutal treatment was ever made.
