THE BRISTOL IN QUARANTINE.
Her Owners Unable to Find Out Why
She Is Detained.


The tug Bristol was ordered to the
quarantine station early yesterday morn
ing. The order came from the quarantine
officer at Sapelo where the Bristol had
recently towed the Italian bark Santa
Fara. The order to go into quarantine
was a surprise to the captain of the Bris-
tol, as he was not aware that he had vio-
lated any of the quarantine regulations.
1t seems the Bristol was ordered to tow
the bark to sea from Tybee knoll, where
she had run aground in disobeying the
order of the pilot to go to sea one day
last week, and when at sea, the master
of the bark refused to sail to Sapelo, and
engaged the Bristol to tow him there.
The Bristol returned from her trip
Thursday night, and remained at her dock
In the city Friday. Capt. Avery stated
that none of his crew went aboard of the
bark, and he could not understand why
he was ordered to quarantine. Neverthe-
less the tug was sent down in the moIu-
ing, and was d.sinfected. She will be
compelled to remain there FIVE days.
Mr.. J. J. Cummings managing owner
of the Bristol, went TO the quarantine sta
ton to ascertain the cause of the deten-
ton. He was expected back last night,
but did not come up.

final Illness, in the employ of Hunter,
Pearce and Battey. Previous to that he
was with Conner. Hull & Co., and before
that with Hammond, Hull & Co. He

FIVE SEEKING REELECTION.
County Officers Formally Announce
Their Candidacy.

The county officers have begun to make
their announcements to the public. The
cards of five of them soliciting the votes,
Chatham county appear in the column of
special notices this morning.
Judge Hampton L. Ferrin of the court
of ordinary, who has served the county
long and ably in that capacity, announces
that he is candidate for reelection.
Capt. ]. j. MCGOWAN, who during his
many years of service, has known no fac
ton or creed, asks the citizens and voters
to support him for reelection to that Of
flee
Sheriff John T. Roman. who. has done no
less in the service of the county, soleits
the support of his friends and fellow citi-
zens for the office he now holds.
Mr. James K. p. Carr who for years
has filled with marked ability the office
of CLERK of the superior court, announces
that he will again be a candidate for that
Office, and asks the support of the voters
of the county.
Coroner John A. Goette has held office
but one term, but in that time has demon
strated his ability to fulfill in every respect
the duties of the office. He seeks the sup
port of his friends and fellow citizens for
reelection.
Announcements WILL no doubt, be forth
coming from others within a few days. 1t
has been known all along that these gem
tlemen would be candidates for reelection.
President p. w. Meldrim of the Liberal
Club, says the statement that the club
has selected candidates for the legislature
is wholly unfounded. The matter he states,
has never been discussed at any meeting
of the advisory committee attended by him
and there has been no suggestion what
ever as to who win or will not be candi-
dates. This matter, however, he says will
be given consideration very soon.

THREE YEARS ON THE GANG.
The Sentence Imposed on Margaret
Price For Her Infamy.

Judge Norwood held a busy session of
the city court yesterday morning and
cleared a docket upon which were all kinds
of misdemeanor cases.
Margaret Price, the mulatto woman
charged with keeping lewd house on
the neither emo of Indian street, near the
canal, was easily convicted under three
separate accusations, and for each conVic-
ton she was given good round year of
service on the county chain-gang, making
a sentence of three years for her persist
ent wickedness and violation of law. Her
only defense was that some of the wit
nesses against her were a good deal worse
than she was, a statement which could
hardly have been substantiated, for it
would seem she had about reached the
bottom of criminal depths.
Five young negro girls, from u to Is
years old, who were arrested in the Price
woman's house as Migrants, were SEN
fenced to spend twelve months each on
the poor farm. William Mills and Jack
Singleton, two of her alleged negro run
ners, were also charged with vagrancy,
but saved themselves by showing that
they had other visible means of support.
1t is doubtful if a story of such fearful
human depravity has been heard in a Sa-
Vannah court in years. The raid upon
the house was ordered by the city court
SIdnu JURY dIlGT Il lull lHN6SIlSdllOn OF
the matter, and with this result when the
case came before Judge Norwood.
Sidney Brown charged with the larceny
of some car brasses from the Florida Cen
trial and Peninsular railroad was sentenc-
ed to pay a fine of $25 and costs, or serve
twelve months on the chain-gang.
Sam Carter was found guilty of the lar
ceny Of a pistol from George B. Maher,
and was sentenced to pay $25 and costs,
or ,Snand tWa1Un rn0nths IN the hai in
gang.
Joseph Simmons, for assaulting and beat
ing Annie Miller, was sentenced to pay
fine of $50 and costs, or spend twelve
months on the gang.
Joseph Law, for assaulting and beating
Willie Smith, was sentenced to pay a fine
of $40 or spend three months on the gang.
Alex McCree pleaded guilty to the
charge of keeping a gaming house and was
sentenced to pay fine of $25 and costs or
spend six months on the chain-gang
Thomas Haskell who was charged with
whipping his wife, had the good fortune to
have his case nolle pressed because his
wife refused to prosecute him.
Judge Norwood turned three subjects of
the Emperor of Germany into citizens of
the United States yesterday. They were
John H. Murken, Herman Lange and Will
lam Opper.
Judge Hampton L. Ferrill of the court
of ordinary acted in the capacity of Judge
in the superior court yesterday, Judge
Falligant being absent on his vacation
He signed an order for the sale at public
cutlery of the stock and apparatus of Mr..
George Goebel on Saturday, Sept rs, I'M

erty was levied on several days ago and
