BAKING POWDER.
A VERDICT FOR 81. 500.
James Foley Sues the Central Rail-
road for Being Put OF Train.

James Foley Sues the Central Rail-
road for Being Put Of Train.
The damage suit of James Foley against
the receivers of the Central railroad for
$4,000 for being putof a train just out
side Atlanta, April 4, 1894, was tried in
the city court yesterday
Foley. it seems, had bought a ticket
from scalper in Atlanta for sc. so to Sa-
vannah. The ticket had been sold by the
Chicago and Eastern Illinois railroad, and
was one of the ironbound kind, which is
good only for the use of the
original purchaser. The ticket was
signed by the agent of the railroad which
sold IT, but it seems that the signature
OF the original purchaser had been over
looked. 1t was bought by ticket sCalper
In Atlanta and sold TO another party 1t
was refused when presented for trans
portation on the Central, and was re-
turned to the scalper, who paid back the
amount that had been paid him for it,
MIR. Foley then bought the ticket and was
put on the train at station about
thirteen miles from Atlanta, as the ticket
was refused and he refused to pay his
fare
He then entered suit, through Hon.
Pope Barrow, for 50, 900 for his injured
feelings and the indignities which he
claimed were heaped upon him The
L
Cunningham, of Lawton & Cunningham.
Mr.. Barrow made the point that as
the ticket had not been signed by the orr
ginal purchaser, and it had been signed
by Mr.. Foley, this entitled him. to the
ticket. The jury was out on the case
about half an hour, after which it re-
turned verdict in the plaintiffs favor
for 81 300
The case will, of course, be taken
to the supreme court unless a new trial is
allowed, as there is great deal involved
IL 1t for the railroads. They have held
all the time that they have the right to
take up ticket sold by scalper when
the contract on the ticket requires it
shall be used by the original purchaser
who signs the contract to that effect.
Cases where tickets of this kind have
been taken up by conductors and the fare
demanded are frequent but this is per-
haps the first time that the refusal to
take the ticket has been looked upon as
an indlgnity, and the result has been a
suit for damages. 1t is usual, in such
cases, for the passenger who purchases
the scalper's ticket which is refused, to
pay his fare, and then get his money
back from the broker from whom he
bought it.
The principle involved is one which the
railroads, and especially the Central, can
not overlook. Attempts have been made
time and again to impose on the Central
with such tickets, but they are always
taken up by the conductors when thcy
are discovered. If a conductor fails to
take up ticket which, according to the
contract, the holder is not entitled to use
he is in danger of losing his position, and
such tickets are always very closely
scrutinized before they are accepted. The
railroads have lost great deal of money
through the selling of tickets to parties
unentitled to them and they are making
every effort to break up the business.

TO MEET THE BATTALION.
The stay-at-Homes to Turn Out as
an Escort.

an escort.
The special train of the Guards return
ing from camp will arrive about o'clock
tonight. 1t will probably run as the
second section of the regular passenger
train, in which case it will reach the city
some time between Z and s O'Clock If it
should run as the first section, however,
it may arrive as early as $50 O'clock
First Lieut.. H. I. Moore, the ranking
line officer of the battalion in the city,
has ordered out all the members of the
battalion in the city to meet at the arse
nal at o'clock and march to the depot to
receive the battalion on its return from
camp The stay-at-homes will turn out
in full uniform, whereas the men from
camp will be attired in the regulation
camp uniform. So many of the men who
went up to camp have already returned
to the city that the ranks of the battalion
have become corLiderably thinned out
and the home detachment could, if every
member in the city were to turn out in
uniform, probably equal the force from
camp.
The fact that the encampment was
held Just at the end of the month when
! the demands of business made it neces-
saPy that so many of the young men
should be at their desks in the city, put
ting their books in shape for the first of
the month, proved a great drawback
numerically TO the battalion. Many of
the members were prevented from going
up at all on this account.
The friends of the Guards will doubt
| less be out in full force to welcome the
boys on their return tonight. They have
been away from the city ten DAYS. and
their friends will be glad to see them
again. There will be no demonstration
at the armory, as the members will be
anxious to get to their homes as soon as
possible.

A Lesson in Hygiene.

Now that water supplies are recog-
nized as the chief vehicle for propagating
typhoid fever, medical and scientific au-
thorities throughout the world are con-
stantly dwelling on the necessity of
using water of known purity While this
has no bearing on medical waters which,
however valuable, cannot safely be made
part of the ordinary daily diet because of
the active chemical substances they con-
table waters. such as Apollinaris 1t is
little wonder, however, chat the use of
Apoilinaris is on the increase, for who
does not gladly take this beverage, which,
besides being pure aud healthful, is de-
lightful and refreshing2 -

A GOOD OUTLOOK.
All the Stock of the Tank Company
win Be Taken.

The Committee in charge of the Savan-
nah Tank and Supply Company organi-
cation is working quietly, but its mem
bers are much encouraged by the outlook
for subscriptions to the stock, as they
say they will succeed in placing it Just
where they desire to have it.
The amount Of the capital stock is to
be $4,000, and those interested desire to
have it all taken among the producers
and factors of naval stores. This is one
naval stores scheme in which the buyers
and exporters have not been asked to
take part.
The only reason for any delay in the
matter is that the committee is endeav-
oring to work the matter up thoroughly
among all the producers and to get the
stock we'll distributed among them, as
well as among the factors in Savannah.
The prospect seems to be that the in
vestment will prove to be handsomely
paying one.

TO Pay Bill.
Gustaf Foster filed libel suit against
the Portuguese bark Seriea in the United
States court yesterday for bill of $50

bark and of which he says the payment
was refused.

belonged to Foster without his permits

Foster found that the bark had made use
of the logs he presented bill for $50.

WHEAT GOES UP.
A Slight Advance on the
Call Board.
But the Mysterious Operator Still
Continues to Take Everything
That Is Offered.

Wheat is up on the call board, and yes
teTday, for the first time in number oil
days. no margins were demanded from
mclaughlin & Co. the stockholders VINO
have bought all the May wheat which has
recently been offered, and il was the bears
turn to put up little cash.
The market opened strong at the MORN
ing session, and the first sales made were
at an advance Of three-eghths over Fiji
DAVIS closing quotations OF 81 04R and the
price rapidlv Jumped up to 81 05$4, Nc
Glaughlin q Co. taking anything that was
offered. After reaching this point the
market slnmped little and finally closed
steady at 81 047s. being q little better than
the prices obtained on Fridays closing
sales.
The opinion is rapidysgaining ground on
the floor of the board that, perhaps after
all. there Is D attempt to corner the mar
ket, but that somebody is simply of the
opinion that wheat is bound to 90 up, and
that the ind vidual. whoever he may be.
is willing TO back his judgment to the ex-
tent of few millions OF dollars, condi-
tion which would indicate that the operator
is not only possessed of unlimited nerve.
but that his capital is almost as abundant.

which McGlaughlin's mysterious principal
has in hand aud on which he holds options

The situation seems to have resolved
Itself 10 this: That all of the other brokers
have turned bears and McGlaughlin is left
10 fight it out alone. Bet the serenity o.
that operator was in nOwise disturbed and
he kept on buying. But while the other
brokers are still selling there is beginning
10 be a feeling that perhaps wheat has
touched the bottom, and that the unknown
who has played for the big stake may.
after all, make a winning The unlimited
amount of confidence displayed by Nc
Gaughlin is growing contagious.
"Of course, it's only a question of
money" said a member of that firm yester-
day after the close OF the session, land we
think we can carry il through. There is
no legitimate reason for the price of wheat
being so low. 1t is not true that there is
such an over-productlOn as has been stated
There was more wheat IN sight year ago
and the price was higher than il is today
but the shorts all over the world have
taken advantage of the general want of
onfdence in commercial circles and have
undertaken to force the price away down
in order to cover their sales. But the very
same influences which are now operating
in that way will boost prices before many
days, and then the pc ope who are now So
