his best man, Mr.. John j. Archer, before
the chancel railing. they having entered
from the Vestry room. The simple and
solemn ceremony of the Episcopal church

most impressive manner.
The church was filled with the friends
of the bride and groom, and after the cere-
mony the bridal party went to the home of
DR.. and Mrs. A. G. Bouton, where, for
short time, the attendants and a few in
innate friends were entertained The we'd

To OPEN THE STREETS.
The Litigation Wanted out OF the
Way a. soon as Possible.

Way as soon As Possible.
Under Chairman Hudson Of the commit
] tee Of council on opening streets there is
/ a likelihood Of considerable progress being
MADE with this work. In the southeastern
section OF the city. THE members or
Chairman Hudson's committee are Alder
men Gleason, Lamotte. Bacon and Falli-
CANT.
Chairman Hudson has always been an
active advocate Of opening the streets
needed across the savannah. Florida and
Western railway. for access TO the prop
erty IN that section Of the city. and he
says he VIII get his committee to formu-
late some plan for the speedy carrying
out Of this work within A day or two. He
believes. he says. that the southeastern
section Of the city should be well opened
up. and his object is 90 push the opening
of those streets as rapidly as It can pos
sibly be done.
Some people have lots In the way OF
these streets" Chairman Hudson said,
''and If they viii treat with the committee
Ia a proper and reasonable spirit they can
easily make terms with the city. If they
do not the committee will be disposed to
have them appraised and condemned for
the purpose, as the value Of the property
ia that part OF the city requires that tbs
work be taken up and carried through as
soon as possible.
There is no doubt that we will go right
ahead with the work as soon as the COM
mittee can get together and formulate
some plan. The litigation between the
city and the Savannah, Florida and West
ern on this matter VIII be pushed 10 a set
Element one way or another as far as the
efforts Of counsel can be brought to bear
at as early a date as possible, and with
this out OF the way there is no reason
why we cannot push the work right ahead.
The southern section Of the city, south
from Duffy street" Chairman Hudson
said, should be made a division OF the
citys fire department, and put under an
assistant chief. Such a chief would, OF
course be under the head of the fire depart
ment, but he would have a territory under
his control. and one which Is in need Of
stronger fire protection. This has been
made an issue in the campaign and It
should be taken up az once. Il should be
done as early as possible, and there will
be even more need for such additional pro-
lection IN that section after the streets
across the Savannah, Florida and Western
railroad have been open Cd, ard ether build
ing out there is in progress"
There Ia a general sentiment among sew
ersl of the aldermen in favor Of increas-
ing the fire protection in the southern sec
ton of the city. as II is a long run for the
apparatus located in the heart of the city,
and often much damage Is done before il
can get out there. If such change is
made It is said that this may create a
position for ex-Assistant Chief Mouro of
the FIRE department, who was connected
with Il for a long time. and who Is Consid-
cred one of the best hremen in the city

ton of carrying out the original project of

Chairman Clemson Wants Paved
Streets for the Fire Department.
The question of what is likely to be done
in the limo Of street Improvements during
the year Is one that win interest a great
many property owners, especially those
towards the southern section Of the city,
where the majority Of the improvements
are now being made.
Chairman Z. c. Gleason Of the street and
lane committee Of the new courcil says he
will be somewhat handicapped in the work
from the fact that there is a shortage Of
funds. This shortage, he says, is due to
the fact that the last council went into
this years budget on the street and lane
matter. and the cost OF the work on JEFF
ferson street and on Drayton street came
out Of this years budget. This fact, he
says. Will prove a drawback to him in the
progress of the work. though he intends
10 push forward the most needed improve.
m pt- in his lin as 81 on - possible and
far as the means at his command Will per-
nit.
1--WE will go right ahead" he said. with
tho work IN r. v. on street as fast as the
weather will permit and push that to COM
pletion. The jefferson street work will
also be completed as soon as possible.
1T is my idea, and / shall endeaVor to
carry it out, to pave West Broad street.
probably with she'll from Henry street to
the extreme southern limits so as to give
the fire apparatus a paved street all the
way to the thickly settled portions in the
southwestern section of the city at and
around Brownsville One of the cross
streets in that section from West Broad
to Bun, probably Seventh street, should
be paved as soon as possible and the pave
ment on Jefferson street should be extend
ed out to it, with shells or some sub
stantial paving on these streets the fire
department would have easy access to
almost all of that section of the city, while
as it is now, it is a hard matter for the
downtown apparatus to pun out there over
the sandy streets.
THE walks in the park, too have no
ticed are in q bad condition, and shall see
that these are repaired and some suitable
material placed on them as soon as pos
sible. The work where there is most nee
essity for ii will be carried forward as
rapidly as we can do so with the means at
cur command.
Alderman Gleason has not yet appoint
ed his superintendent, but may do so with
in day or two. Within q short time he
says he will get his committee together
and formulate some well defined plan with
regard TO the further progress Of the
work The other members of the COM
mittee are Aldermen Tiedeman, Falli-
giant, Kolshorn and Hudson.

DEATH OF WARD M'ALLIsrER.
He Was Notable Figure in New

The announcement of the death Of
Ward McAlister, which occurred IN New
York shortly after o'clock last night
will be received with surprise in his city,
where he had many acquaintances, since
it was not known that he was III. This
city was his birthplace. and many stin
remember when he was quite a figure in
Savannah's social life. He was consLio-
uous in the social life of New York for
many years, and was regarded as an
authority on society matters. He devo-
ted pretty much all of his time 10 So
Getty in that city, and acquired distinc-
ton as one of its leaders. A look he
wrote few years ago on society rs he
had seen 1t in this country and 3urope
attracted considerable attention. For tho
last year or two he appeared as the writer
Of articles on society topics in one of
the leading New York papers. The pc
eullar place he filled in New Yorks social
life is likely to remain vacant, as there
are very few who have the qualifications

FIREMEN ON UNEASY BEDS.
The New Dismissal Ordinance a
Sword Over Their Heads.


Sword Over Their Heads.
The firemen are all feeling rather dubious
now, since the passage Of Alderman Will
links ordinance providing for the dis
charge of firemen without cause by the
mayor upon the recommendation of the
chief. Some of them feel that their tenure
upon their jobs is very slight and all of
them have made up their minds that they
must walk a chalk line in future.
The threat of the Southeastern Tariff
Association to make an increase of rs per
cent. in the rates Of fire insurance IN Sa-
vannah still hangs over the city. A well
known insurance agent informed a Morn
ing lJews reporter that the matter would
be taken up at the April meeting i'm At
lanta and the probability is that a much
larger increase would be made If the
promises to improve the fire risks in Sa-
vannah are not carried out. Nothing has
yet been done to the Bay street main
which it has been promised would be en-
larged. Mayor Myers was asked about
this yesterday. He said that as soon as
the new council gets well into harness
these matters will be taken up.
THE enlargement of the Bay street main
would be a step in the right direction"
he d. Il am afraid we will not have
enoush money to do anything just now,
though The main is working very well
and think will be found sufficient for
present needs until the city is better able
to make improvements of this kind"

THE CITY OF MACON IN PORT.
She Arrives Fortnight Hours Late
but Is Uninjured.


The steamship City of Macon, Capt
Lewis, arrived yesterday morning at
$50 O'Clock from Philadelphia, forty-eight
hours overdue, on account of being
ashore on Bulkhead shoals in Delaware
bay.
AS previously stated in the Morning
News, the City of Macon went ashore
last Sunday morning. while in
charge of coasting pilot,
the weather being clear at the
time. The steamship was heavily loaded
with a general cargo of merchandise,
and she struck hard on the shoal, and
was four feet fast at high water. Four
tugs tried in vain to haul her off, and it
was found necessary to tighten a part
of the cargo, after which she fioated. The
cargo was reloaded and she proceeded
Monday night.
Agent Anderson of the Ocean Steamship
Company said yesterday that the steamer
had APPARENTLY received no damage, and
outside of the two days delay and the
expenses incident to the accident, the
company sustained no losses.
Up to last night there was no survey
ordered on the vessel. She was appointed
to sail for Boston yesterday, but the time
consumed in discharging and loading oc-
casioned a delay. She will probably sail
to-day,
