A Prominent Drummer Of Savan-
nah Has Fled From
That City.
HENRY HULSBERG OVER $500 SHORT
The Missing Man Is Supposed to Be On
His Way to His Home In
Germany.

Savannah, May 7.-Mr. Henry Huls-
berg. city drummer for M. Ferst's
Sons & Co., has skipped town. With
him he has taken between $500 and
5000 of the firms money. Hulsberg, 1t
is alleged, pocketed the money after
collecting it from customers of the
house, whose trade he also drummed.
The collector has been missing since
Monday, on which day he either sailed
on the steamship City of Augusta for
for New York or went to Charleston
and took a steamer for the metropolis
from that port. The presumption is
that he has gone to New York to take
the steamer for Germany to return to
his foreign home, where he no doubt
considers he will be safe beyond the
German about 80 years old and un-
married. He was we'll known IN Sa-
vannah and was frequently seen drIv-
ing through the streets while out So
Letting trade.
The police have his photograph and
are at work on the case and are trying
to have him arrested before he can
leave New York. In all probability
the fugitive will be apprehended and
returned to Savannah and if caught
the law will be strongly applied in
his case.

The HarbOrmaster's Claim For Fees Came up
In Court Yesterday.
The interesting attachment cases
which grew out Of the refusal of Capt.
A. F. Churchill to pay the Harbormas-
ter Dave Kellar his fees on the steam
ships which have been loaded here
since Mr.. Kellar took charge of the
office, were called in Justice Hitch's
court yesterday.
Col. w. E. Kay appeared for the
defendants, Messrs Robert L. Alex
ander G. Co., owners of the steam
ships, and Col. II. F. Dunwody rep
resented Harbormaster Kellar.
A settlement of facts was agreed to
by counsel for both sides. The ar
guments will be made today, after
which Justice Hitch will render his
decision.
Five or six steamships are involved
in the case, and the resistance of the
harbormaster's effort to collect his
fees, resulted in the attachment of
each of them by that official.

board of trustees, but the questions at
issue have been settled. DIR. u. 7.

morning there was regular pente-
costal time. Fine speeches were made
and all parties are shaking hands and
shedding tears in that the threatened
disruption among the Baptists had
been averted.

To Open 1t or Not to Open 1t Is Now Vexed
Question.

ton that is now affecting the safe of
r. E. BrIesenick, the Bay street mer-
chant who is now fighting the tempo
rary receivershlp provided for him by
Judge j. L. Sweat few days ago.
When Judge John G. Lehman. the
receiver aforesaid, took charge of the
business, he demanded the custody of
the safe. Mr.. Briesenick refused to
deliver the combination or the keys.
Judge Lehman, through his attor-
neys, then appealed to Judge Sweat,
reciting the state of affairs. The
Judge at once issued an order, which
was received yesterday, and gives Mr..
Briesenick until next Monday to open
the safe. The order recites that if
1T is not Obeyed by that day, Mr..
Briesenick will be held for contempt.
And so, the safe holds an important
position in litigation, and the result
of the order will be awaited with in
