Bob Jones, colored, was lodged in the

Jones made daring attempt at highway
robbery at the Central railroad depot on
West Broad street.
MIR. NJ. G. Shuman, who lives on Eighth
street stopped in front of The depot about
O'Clock with Grant Bevill, a l3-year-old
white boy who boards at the same house
with Mr.. Shuman. The latter
had double barrel shotgun which
he gave to the boy to hold
while he, Shuman went across to the Ar
mour Packing Company's Office to at
tend to some business.
While young Beyill was awaiting Mr..
Shuman's return Jones came up and
asked to have look at the gun. The boy
unsuSpectlngly handed it over. Jones
took the gun and darted down Railroad
street as hard as he could 90.
Bevill gave the alarm and started the
cry of stop thief" MIR. Shuman

saw man running down the street
with gun on his shoulder. He gave

beyond the end of the Central railroad
shed. He took the gun away from him,
and brought the man back A crowd
of negroes gathered around Shuman
and demanded that he turn his prisoner
loose The sight of the gun overawed

A Suit in Tennessee Postpones the
Sale of the III. and n. G. Railroad.
Mr.. B. A. Denmark returned yesterday
from Atlanta, where he went TO repre-
sent the Savannah bondholders of the
Marietta and North Georgia railroad.
There Is quite a large amount of the
bonds held in Savannah, among them be-
ing about 100000 Of the consolidated
mort gage and about S-ooO00of the first
mortgage. Savannahiaus. therefore, are
much interested in .ue progress Of the
case.
DJudge Newman, Of the northern dis
trict court, has been anxious for some
time TO have the matter disposed Of IL
mas been hanging fire for some time.
and he was rather averse to Dostl0ning
the sale but finally ga in when the
Iacts were presented and all parties in
IereSted came to an agreement that il
was the best thing to do
Inc reorganization committee desired a
postponement of the sale on account of
an unexpected decree for a lar-e amount
OF money rendered in the United States
court in Tennessee, which required them
TO put up large amount before the sale
OF the property could be confirmed by the
court. The reorgani alton committe and
It's counsel feel satisfied of being able to
reverse this decree. On account of this
decree and the chance Of reversing it the
counsel for the bond holders and all other
interests IS practically agreed upon a
postponement of the sale for thirty days
Judge Newman, on this showing, con
scented TO let the matter take that course.
IL IS probable that the sale viii take
place April ,, unless some new and I'M
toreseen complications arise The upset
price for the road is 81 10000. That is
the price at which it viii probably be
bought in by the reorganization commit
tee for the bOndholdcrs. nearly all the Sc
curlties of the property being in their
hands. The court has set this price
as minimum limit, and unless there is
some outside bidder it win probably 20
at that figure. Some money is needed, of
course, TO pay the expenses Of the receiy-
ership, and the underlying Indebtedness.
but the committee will arrange that if it
secures the property according to It's pres
ent intentions. The new securities will
be appOrJiOned according to an arrange
ment already made The consolidated
mortgage bonds, of which about $600,0O0
are held in savannah, are worth in the

The Sam Road Bound to Get Into Saw
anuah.

intention Of getting into Savannah as
early as possible.
The action of the bondholders in decid-
ing 10 extend the line at a,ost Of S6U0.OOU.
has been generally discussed among rail
road men, and II is decidedly probable
that their intention viii be car
rIed out. General Manager Cecil
GaDOett of the sam road was in the city
yesterday. lie Is enthusiastic over the
new movement ana says the extension is
certain to be made.
He was of the opinion that some at
tempt would be made to purchase the
Eden extension, a part of the Savannah
and Western, between Meldrim and
Lyons, from the Central railroad. TO
which it belongs. OF course if no salts
factory arrangement can be made by
which this road can be obtained, Mr..
Gabbett says the extension will be built
1t Is an open question as TO whether it
1t would be to the Centrals interest TO
part with the Eden extension. If it is to
be paralleled by the sam road extern
sion, 1t might as well be sold to the latter
as the large amount of traffic over this
branch comes from the Sam road
Mr.. Gabbett says the sam road is GER
tam TO get here in one way or the other,
and if it cannot obtain terminal facilities
from the Central he says they will be
furnished by the Savannah, Florida and
Western. The situation will be watched
with much interest by Savannahians
The Central's policy has been to hold all
the territory possible. and it remains to
be seen which road will be forced TO
terms, II either, or whether a competing
line to the Eden extension is TO be built.

Police Court.

The recorders court room was mcom-
fortably crowded yesterday morning by
spectators interested in the Lindsay case
continued from Friday. John Wade,
John kearney John Carr and John Nor
ris were charged with assaulting T. S.
Lindsay. 1t was u o'clock before all the
testimony had been heard.
A large number of the demi-monde was
present as witnesses and all testified
how badly the crowd had beaten Lindsay.
Some of the women, it seems. were in
their rooms aud saw the fight and told in
the best way they could that Wade had
struck Lindsay and that the others
crowded on him while he was down.
Other witnesses who where at the
corner of South Broad and Houston
streets during the fight told a somewhat
different story. The four men were rep
resented by counsel who asked that the
court take in consideration the fact that
the testimony was, to say the least, most
conflicting.
Recorder Wilson fined the men S25 each
for disorderly conduct and turned them
over to the city court for assault and bat
