TO KEEP TRACK OF FUGITIvEs.
THE NEW LAW MARES IN FiiE Duty
OF THE SHERIFF..

He Must Look After Criminals and
the County 10 Foot the Bius-The
Trouble Heretofore Has Been a
Lack of AuthOrity-The New Law
Calculated to Bring About the Arr
rest of More Criminals.
The act passed by the last legislature
which provides for the bringing back Of
prisoners by the sheriff to the county N
which the crime was committed, is likely
to effect some changes in the admins
tration OF the sherif's office of Chatham
county. Heretofore Sheriff Roman has
contented himself with leaving such work
to the police department and to the solicl-
tor general
The attention OF County Attorney saus-
81 was called yesterday to the amend
ment to section 1886 of the code. adopted
by the last legislature, which provides
that the sheriff shall bring back prisoners
who have escaped to other counties or
states and specifying a fee of 81 per day
and all necessary expenses. Mr.. saussy
confessed that the law was a new one on
him.
Il have always contended,' he said,
that the sheriff had this right without
the need of any special enactment, but
now that a special enactment has been
passed the sheriffs duty Is plain"
The sheriff does not need then to Sc
cure a special order Of the court or Of
the county commissioners TO go after a
prisoner" Mr.. Saussy was asked.
No. under the present law all that the
sheriff needs is to be armed with a war
M srraf he MA raH IN,
hands of course and a requisition from
the solicitor general, If the prisoner desir-
ed is outside OF the state. He can then
go ahead and get the party wanted and
afterwards present his bill. as provided by
law"
Wouldn't it have put a different face
on the matter II this law had been pre-
scented when the county commissioners
were discussing the question of bringing
Abe Small back?" Mr. Saussy was asked
Il don't know that it would he re-
piled. THE commissioners were willing
to bring Small back. The question was
not on the expense, but as to who should
name the officer who should bring him
back. The county was willing to bring
Small back and pay the expenses, but
the city wanted the honor, and we let
them have 1t at their own expense. That
is ali there was to that"
Wouldn't this law have cut short the
whole discussion by putting the matter
into the hands of the sheriff." Mr.. Saussy
was asked.
yes. I think it would" he replied.
1.-THE sheriff would simply have taken
charge of the matter and the county
would have paid the bill. The sheriff
would have either gone himself or depu-
tized some one TO go in his place
Mr. Saussy said that in his opinion the
law makes it incumbent upon the sheriff
to take special interest in the matter OF
bringing criminals to justice, and espec-
tally those who have escaped TO other
sections after the commission OF serious
crimes, as in the Small case.

1Iandamus To-day.

County Attorney ]. r. Saussy viii file
his answer to the mandamus that was is
sued against the board Of county commits
sioners to force them TO build a bridge
and causeway sersss the river to the is
land, IN the superior court to-day.
This is part Of 'eaHse eeiebfe," ana is
OF long standing Mr.. saGsss, in looking
up the matter. had TO go way back ts
lSSS The matter as regards its being &
legal road is a disputed ems and there IL
ne data to prove that the road was legal
one or so accepted by the county.
In 1870 the legislature passed an act
placing al roads Of this kind In the hands
and eontrol Of the county commissioners.
But little data can be secured; however,
90 prove that this road was then a lesal
one IN that sense. The bridge must have
been destroyed at that time or just be-
fore it, At the January, 1872 term of the
grand jury ii made a long presentment
OF this matter, saying that ii had exam
ined into the proposed route for the new
road, across the river and to the island.
and thought that the cost was too much
for the county, considering the slight in
terests involved. It, however, recommend
ed that IL the road could be built for,
say 5000. that Il might be done, IL in the
opinion OF the ordinary IL was necessary
Other grand juries followed their own
sweet will in the matter after that. one
recommending II and another saying that
il was too great an expense for the county.
However. Oh the recommendation Of
the grand jury Of 1870 and later grand tu-
ries. an attempt was made to secure a
bridge for the amount recommended, S.
000. II was found, however. that with
that amount no bridge of sufficient
strength to Withstand the storms, ETC.,
could be put up That while the travel
would not be too heavy for bridge built
for that sum, yet the storms and heavy
tides would be dangers that could not be
guarded against for that amount. Hence
the county commissioners would not re-
commend the building of more expen-
sive structure and the matter has thus
been left in that shape.
The mandamus is to compel the county
commissioners to build the road, on the
ground that il was a legal road and high
way. This is denied by them and nothing
can be found 10 Justify that assertion Of
the Skideway people. Naturally they are
interested in having a road to the main
land, but the county commissioners say
that the few interests there would not JUS
tify them in building such an expensive
structure as would be necessary, as be-
sides the two bridges that would be re-
quired, there is a long stretch Of marsh
that would be necessary to causeway at
considerable expense
The outcome of the matter is awaited
with interest by the tax payers.

ton Of Dr. Graham was somewhat of a
surprise, but as 1t was evidently intended
to be final, it was accepted by the board

entire satisfaction, not only to the MEM
bers of the sanitary board and of the
city council. but to citizens generally who
have come in contact with him in his
work. DR.. Graham devoted his idle time
at quarantine to the study Of various
problems in the matter of sanitation and
disinfection, and has advanced some ideas
of his own on these subjects. He will
have the hearty good wishes Of his nu-
merous friends In Savannah in what
ever field he may direct his efforts here
after.
DIT. Graham secured his position through
a, competitive examination, and his sue
cessor will be chosen in the same man.
ner. An examination by board of med
zeal examiners will be held at the city
exchange Tuesday Sept. 3, for the pur-
pose of deciding upon candidate. AS in
the former case an examination will be
conducted at the same time at one of the
hospitals in New York. the papers at
which examination will be forwarded to

quarantine officer is $1,000 per annum, with
furnished quarters, fuel, lights and coal.
