BROKE HER ARM BIZ JUMPING.
Mrs. LavinIa r. Minis Injured in n
HunnMnN.

Mrs. L.avinia F. Minis was quite serious
y injured by jumping from her carriage
Yesterday afternoon when the horses. in
a moment Of excitement, began to run
away down Drayton street toward Bay.
Mrs. Minis. and her daughter. Miss Ma
ria Minis. were out driving. and were re-
turning home about $50 O'Clock in the af-
ternoon. From some cause the horses be-
came frightened on Drayton street, near
Gwinnett. and began a mad run straight
down Drayton toward Bay street. Both
the horses are spirited animals. and
one OF them is rather nervous ana ex-
citable. especially when touched suddenly.
1t is supposed the fright was caused by
the falling from above of a twig or some
other object.
The sudden start precipitated the driver,
Joe Manly, to the ground head foremost.
Mrs. Minis. who. in spite of advanced
years, is quite active, seeing the situation,
thought best to jump from the carriage,
and as she did so was thrown heavily TO
the ground near Hall and Drayton
streets People were soon attracted by
the accident, and Mrs. Minis was taken
up and carried into the residence of Mr..
l.. Kayton. Drs. Waring and Corson were
called in and did all in their power to re-
heVe her sumering. 1t was found thdt heF
right arm had been broken in two places,
between the elbow and shoulder, her lett
wrist was sprained and she received sever
al severe bruises. Except the severe shock
from the fall il is believed she was not
otherwise injured. She was shortly after
ward removed to her home, No. 81 Jones
street, and DR.. T. j. Charlton
was summoned. Mrs, Minis was resting
quietly last night and though quite Sc
we're, il is not believed the injuries Will
be attended by any serious results.
After Mrs. Minis had jumped from the
carriage, the horses kept on in their mad
run down Drayton street. Miss Minis,
who remained in the carriage, caught hold
Of the rein and tried to quiet them by
speaking to them. Seeing this was USE
less, she endeavored to make herself as
safe as possible in case of an accident.
They turned the corner at Bay and start
ed toward Bull street, running directly
toward a Barnard street car that was
coming up. The motorman stopped his
car, jumped off and caught the horses by
the bride and with the assistance OF
others who came up stopped them just
in front of the custom house. Miss Minis
was much disturbed about her mothers
fall, and apprehensive of some serious
accident She herself, fortunately, escap-
ed unhurt.
The driver, Joe Manly, was quite badly
hurt. He was sent medical attention. ana
it is believed his injuries will not result
seriously.

COOL WAVE MAY BRING FROST.
Probability of Freeze in This Sec
fion Tonight

Probability of Freeze in This Sec
tion Tonight.
The cool wave predicted by the weather
bureau put in its appearance on time last
night The heavy rain of Tuesday contin-
ued through the night. Yesterday it clear
ed off and early in the afternoon the tenn
perature began to fall.
The cold wave flag was hoisted at 4
O. clock and a bulletin was sent out pre-
dieting fall of Is to 20 degrees in tenn
perature by this afternoon. The highest
that mercury went during the day was IS
degrees. AT s O'Clock last night it had
dropped to 81 degrees. Information from
the weather Office at II o'clock was to the
effect that the danger from the storm was
past except from the cold northwest winds
which will, doubtless, cause a freeze as
far south as Augusta, and may cause a
damaging frost here tonight. The high
wind may protect against frost this morn
ing. The indications at midnight were that
the temperature would go to 40 degrees
perhaps 2 or 3 degrees lower.
The storm signals We're up all day on
the board of trade building.
The appearance of the cool wave was
not without warning. II was predicted
by Assistant Weather Observer Wam-
baugh night before last. The weather bu-
reau officials, for some reason, have not
issued authority to the Savannah observer
to make local forecasts. The forecasts
sent out are made in Washington, and
are often twelve to eighteen hours late
The unofficial forecast, which the Sa-
vannah office made night before last
twelve hours ahead Of the Washington
forecast, gave full information of the
approaeh OF the cool wave, and was fully

FINED UNDER THE MAGUIRE LAW
A Sailor boarding Housekeeper's
the First Case Here.

the First Case Here.
John Johnson, who keeps sailors
boarding house at No. 20 Bay street.
was fined $40 in the United States district
court yesterday for OBTAINING the clothing
of James Sharp, an American seaman
after demand had been made for it by
the owner. The highest penalty that can
be inflicted for this offense is 800.
Johnson was charged with a violation
of the act of Feb. IS, 1895, commonly called
the Mcguire act" 1t prohibits the at
tachment of a seaman's clothing and
contains other salutary features, all in
favor of the seaman. This case was first
brought before Commissioner NJ. A. Con-
molly, who held Johnson for the grand
jury.
The offense was committed in this city
on Jan. 81 last, and is believed to be
the first prosecution of the kind GER
tainly, in this section of the country
There is no doubt that the prompt and
vigorous measures taken for the relief of
Seaman Sharp by the officials of the
United States court viii prove beneficial
to the sailors frequenting this port
The boarding house keepers are warned
that it is unsafe to hold a seaman's
clothes after the owner has demanded
the same.

PORT ROYAL AND AUGUSTA.
The Case to Come Up Before the
South Carolina Court To-day.


The case involving the Port Royal and
Augusta railroad will come up for hear
ing before the South Carolina superior
court to-day. The question to be consid-
cred is a final decree and a sale Of the
property.
This has been rather interesting liti-
cation throughout. II. B. King. Kohn,
Pepper & Co, stockholders; r. NJ. ogden,
a bondholder, and the state of South Car
DINA, brought the matter into the state
courts. while the Central Railroad of
Georgia, which is a holder of a large
amount Of the securities, hold that il is
a case for the United States court and
that it has proper jurisdiction in the mat
ter. The question of jurisdiction has new
er been determined, and it is one which
has created a puzzle for those interested.
Mr.. J. H. Averill, the receiver of the
property, is the appointee, both of the
state courts and of the United States
court so the question of jurisdiction did
not come up in an argumentative way on
the appointment of a receiver. What may
ultimately be done on this point is yet
to be determined.
Capt H. c. Cunningham, representing
the Central; Mr.. Henry Crawford, repre-
senting Messrs. Thomas and Ryan. left
the city yesterday for Aiken to appear be-
fore the court tomorrow. Mr. Alex c.
King of Atlanta will go over for the
stockholders mentioned above, and other
attorneys will appear for the state of
South Carolina and the other parties in
tereSted The question comes up to-day
on the matter of final decree and sale,
but should final decree be secured un-
less satisfactory to all parties, which
would perhaps end the litigation in the
United states court, the matter would
probably be kept up in the latter court
until the question of Jurisdiction had in
some way been determined, and IL is fin
ally decided from which court the final
decree should come.
The final reports of Receivers II. NJ
Conner and r. Somers Hayes which were
practically filed in the United states
court two weeks ago, and which the
Morning News reported as filed at he
time, Will come up before Master in Chan
Gerry George w. Owens Esq, to-day for
a hearing, for the purpose of proving
them. Notice of the filing of these ac-
counts and of the hearing to-day was
gwen TO all parties interested on Feb 81
Unless some of the attorneys Interested
are unavotdably absent to-day the hear
ing will take place. As soon as the re-
port or the master in chancery is filed
in court, it Will so before the Judge for
approval, and an order will then be taken
finally discharging the receivers and di-
recting the clerk of the court to cancel
their bonds. The receivers, it is expected
viii be finally and formally DISCHARGES
