The Law Evaded.

Yesterday afternoon in the Police Court
Frederick W. Dieste was given trial on
charge of being an unlicensed wholesale
liquor dealer. This Is the case which was
brought by a committee of the Drivers As
sociation, of which Dieste is not member,
and the case which resulted Indirectly from
the beer boycott. The defendant claimed
that he was in the employ of Mr.. Charles
Jacobson, the well-known bother, and sold
a salary and commission. 1t was claimed
that many of his patrons lived in the mile
limit, where he drove about selling beer,
and not delivering beer that had been or
dered from the bottling establishment. Wit
nesses also told of boxes of Pabst beer that
had been sold by the defendant, and the
latter explained that the Milwaukee beer
had been delivered as an accommodation.
For the District it was contended that this
way of doing business was an evasion of
the law, and the jury so found. When a
verdict of guilty was rendered counsel gave
notice of motion for a new trial.

FOUR INDICTMENTS FOUND.
GRAND JURY GETTING AT THE IL
LEGAL REGISTRATION.

William c. Girty, William Dempsey,
william c. Banks and Vincent
Thomas Indicted for MisdemeanOr
in UBIawfuIIy signing the Oath in
the Voters hook in the Tax Col
IectOr's Omce-Warrants Issued
for Five others.
The grand jury returned four special
presentments yesterday afternoon against
parties charged with Illegal registration.
The parties indicted are William
c. Girty. William Dempsey. Will
lam c. Banks and Vincent
Thomas. They are all supposed to be
members of the Citizens Club faction,
and were indicted, it is understood, on
evidence furnished by NJ. A. Buttimer,
representing the Liberal Club.
The parties indicted are charged with
misdemeanor in unlawfully signing their
names to the oath in the voters book,
kept by the tax collector for all persons
to sign who desire to register as voters,
being then and there not in fact qualified
as stated in said oath, not having paid
all taxes required since the adoption of
the constitution of 1871"
The Indictments were not returned by
the grand jury until late in the after
noon, and the fact did not become gener-
ally known around town last night. A
number of similar cases have been pre-
sented to the grand jury, and 1t is likely
that these are only a few of batch
of indictments for the same offense.
Mr.. Buttimer, who is the watcher OF the
registration for the Liberal Club, has
gathered evidence, similar to that. upon
which these indictments were found, in a
large number Of cases, all of which viii
be presented to the grand jury as rapidly
as possible. He was present in the super
Tor court room in the afternoon, with a
number of witnesses against parties whom
he desired to present 10 the jury.
For some reason or other the witnesses
were not called, very much TO Mr.. Butti-
mer's dissatisfaction. Mr.. Buttimer after
wards went before Justice Patterson and
secured warrants for the five men whom
he had intended to present He stated last
night that he intended to pursue this
course In the future and he would see to
1t that every man who is on the list ilie-
ally is placed under bond This will mean
the issuance of large number of war
rants, If this course is pursued.
The men for whom warrants were issued
are Nelson Jenkins, Joseph ]. Farris,
Charles w. Mackey, Benjamin o. Kersch,
Monroe j. Lee.

mt the Central shops.

IhonaS y. Rogers seriously Injured
mt the Central shops.
Thomas S. Rogers. who runs the norris
ing and boring machine in the Central

dent yesterday afternoon.
He had directed two negro workmen to
bring in some heavy wooden stills, and
place them on the machine. His back
was turned to the men when they brought
in the stills, and not noticing that he was
standing in the way they threw the heavy
timbers on the machine.
Mr.. Rogers saw them, and in his at
tempt to jump out of the way, slipped and
Tell heavily against the railing The force
OF the fall mashed his arm badly, and he
was rendered unconscious; when he re-
covered his injured arm was attended 10
and he went to his home on Jones street,
near West Broad
At supper he was seized with a hem
morhage. his condition became alarming,
and DR.. W. II. Elliott was sent for
when the doctor arrived he found Mr..
Rogers in such acute agony that he was
Obliged to place him under the influence
of morphine.
AT late hour Dr. Elliott said that the
man was severely injured internally, but
ne could not state how serious the inju-
ries were.
Mr.. Rogers has been employed in the
Central shops for the last eight months
ana was recently married.

ADDING NEW EXPERIMENTS.
improvements on the Ocean Steam
ship Co.'s Fleet.

General Agent ]. ". Barnard, Jr., Of the
Ocean Steamship Company. arrived yes
terday from New York. where he has been
looking after the company's interests He
says the company is making extensive i'm
proVements with a view TO handling the
vegetable and fruit traffic in a more ex-
peditious and satisfactory manner. Spe-
clal attention is being given TO ventilation,
and the company viii spare no expense in
hitting out its fleet with the most improved
system that has ever been introduced in
the coastwise trade.
While no care will be lacking in handling
per1SnaOle cargOes, the comfort of pasSen-
gers viii be looked after in the most thor
ough manner. The improvements to this
end will consist Of the most improved sys-
TEN of plumbing. and sanitary arrange
ments that can be provided. An innova-
ton VIII be the introduction of spray baths
of sea water such as are found in the up
to-date bathing establishments in large
cities.
This improvement will no doubt be high
~ appreciated by the patrons of the line,
as il will enable them to test the tenn
perature of sea water from Tybee to
Sandy Hook, and they can feel a keen
sympathy for the hot and dusty traveller
by train.
The City of Birmingham will be the
first of the fleet 10 have these improve
ments. She is in drydock, but will sail
from New York the latter part of the
week. The other steamers will be refit-
ted as rapidly as possible until the entire
excel that of any other line on the South
Atlantic coast.
An improvement which is sure to prove
extremely popular, is the new system of
electric lighting, whereby the current
will be continued all night, and the old
order of all lights out at IL o'clock will
be thing of the past. The company is
introducing improved propellers and ma
chinery with a view to increasing the
speed of its ships.
1t has not yet been decided what i'm
provements will be made to the compa-
ny's property in Savannah, but if any
thing suggests itself in that line it will be

THE COMPANY MATCH SHOOT.
An Important Change which Bars
Savannah Companies.

Savannah Companies.
The Savannah Rife Range Association
has made a most important change in the
company team match, a contest to be shot
on the Avondale range in May week.
Many companies. especially in neighboring
cities. protested that they could not be ex-
pected to compete with Savannah teams in
this contest, because the latter have had
the benefit of practice on the range and,
moreover, have had experience In the con-
test at Sea Girt, N. J., which would qualify
them to take the foremost stand The as
ISOLATION has for this reason barred Sa-
vannah companies from entering any
teams in this contest, and ii is now open to
teams of five men from any volunteer
military company of the national guard
tenlisted where the state makes such re-
quiremenD, and provides for only seven
shots each at the 200, 300 and 5OO-yard
ranges The prizes will be a handsome
trophy presented by a Savannah firm and
$50 IN cash, in case as many as seven
teams enter. but 800 If only four teams en-
ter. In this change OF arrangements an
important concession has been made 10
several teams who were DESTROYS of en-
tering, and these teams will also have the
privilege and right to enter any of the
other matches in which they see fit to
contest
