MAY STOP THE SALE.
An Equity Subpoena Served on the
Atlantic short Line People.

There was some doubt in the minds OF
Receiver John r. Young of the Atlantic
Short Line railroad and his attorney. Mr..
Walter @. Charlton, as to whether the
sale will take place to-day at SWANS boro,
when they left the city for that place last
night.
According to a former order Of Judge
Speer the sale was to take place to-day
before the court house at Swainsboro.
There were three or four prospective bid
ders for the property, and all sorts or
guesses have been made as to who might
buy It and what they would want with it.
A subpoena in equity was served yester-
day on Receiver John r. Young, however,
and this may be the cause of stopping the
sale to-day. though those interested had
no definite information on that point. The
subpoena read Leo Schlesinger against
the Atlantic Short Line railroad, John r.
Young individually and as receiver, and
John f. Hanson 1t was apparent on the
face of it that ii was issued on account of
some bill in equity filed before Judge
Speer in the United States court.
Schlesinger, who lives in New York. is
a stakeholder in the Atlantic Short Line
railroad, holding about thirty-seven
shares, and was one of the few stock
holders, who did not sell their stock at
the time II was being Dought up, as was
supposed by the Southern railroad, or
some other parties interested. 1t is sup
posed he has some complaint or other
that he desires to air in the
courts, as 1t is said collision and one or
two other things are alleged on the part
of those interested in the property. The
subpoena calls on the defndants to an
swer to the bill of complaint before Judge
Speer on the first Monday in January,
1897
AS nothing was learned yesterday about
the injunction or whatever the bill may
be it is supposed IL there is any intention
to stop the sale at this late day, the
papers will be served in Swainsboro to-
day, just before the sale takes place.
Such action would of course have the eff
feet of stopping the sale. The papers are
expected here within the next day or two
to be filed in this division of the district.

Disposition of the Property Left
Here by Judge w. GraysOn Mann.
Through their attorneys, Messrs. Erwin,
duBignon & Chisholm, the Savannah Bank
and Trust Company filed a petition in the
superior court yesterday, asking for ex
ira compensation in the matter of the cs-
tate of W. Grayson Mann, part of which
it has been handling for some time for the
trustees. The part in question was that
left under the will of George b. Cumming
and in which Judge Mann had only life
interest.
Prior to his death Judge Mann was the
trustee, and the property was managed bv
the Savannah Bank and Trust Company,
the compensation of that institution for
this work being only 800 per annum. Tn.
der the will of Mr.. Cumming, this prop
erty, after the death of Judge Mann, was
TO be divided between the heirs of Col.
James Hunter. of whom there are five
now livlns-Hatte Cohn, Cecil Berrien.
Kate Berrien Anderson, James Hunter
and Cecil Durand. The bank also asks
the direction of the court in the matter
of that portion of the property which goes
to James Hunter, all Of IL having been
conveyed at one time and another TO
Henry j. Thomasson, Adam Strain, Henry
Talmadge a. Son and others, to secure
loans amounting to about $4,000.
The property consists Of eighty-three
shares Of Southwestern railroad stock, 3i1

Commissioned Officers to Meet To-
night to Discuss Plans For 1t.

~ IDlSCuSS FOE
A meeting of all of the commissioned
officers of the Georgia volunteers in Sa-
vannah will be held tonight at S:15 o'clock
in Company AS room at the Savannah
Volunteer Guards armory.
The meeting was called by Col. A. X.
Lawton of the First Regiment Infantry,
Georgia volunteers, at the request of Capt
w. W. Williamson, commanding officer of
the Sea Grit team, and is to be held for
the purpose of taking into consideration
plans and ways and means for holding in
Savannah next spring is a target contest
between teams selected from this city and
state and from adjoining states. Such a
contest and meet between riffemen from
adjoining states viii be of great interest
and advantage to all the Georgia voIun-
teers, and every commissioned officer in
the city has been earnestly requested 10
be present.
The object is to get up a rifle meet SINH
lar to that held in Savannah last spring
during the May week military carnival.
The sharpshooters association still has the
handsome DeRenne and De Soto trophies,
and it is desired to get up contests for
these and other prizes.
Those Interested in target shooting are
going to work for the meet for all they
are worth, and the chances are there will
be larger number of teams here the com
ing spring than were here last May, If the
commissioned officers succeed in making
satisfactory arrangements for holding it.
and there is little doubt that this will be
done

At the recent conclave of the Sover-
eign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows, q
change in the funeral ceremony was
made, whereby the hat can be kept on
during the rendition of the last rites in
cases Of inclement weather or excessive
heat. Heretofore it has been the custom
to uncover, no matter whether in rain
or snow, hot or cold. The new rule is
an excellent and sensible one. and will
go great way toward preventing sick
ness, as it is hazardous to uncover the
head at the grave of IA deceased brother
in inclement weather. Cases of serious
illness have been frequent from expos
ure at funerals. In keeping the head
covered no disrespect is shown to the
dead. 1t is the duty of the living to
guard against any chance of serious
Illness in performing the sad rites for
those who are about to be placed in
their last resting place.
