Circuit Court reversed and cause re-
manded for further proceedings. In
this cause the victory is substantially
in favor of the appellees and against
Captain Jones.
The history Of this case is interesting.
Cant. Jones, who is a citizen OF New
York State. some years ago purchased
the Eliza Williamson farm at a judicial
sale. supposing he was purchasing 1t IN
fee simple. and the sale was confirmed
in due season. Capt. Jones proceeded
to develop the land for oil, and sank a
number of wells which turned out
heavy producers. About this time II
came to light that there were heirs VINO
had a legal claim to seven-tenths OF the
property. and that Capt. Jones, suppos-
ing he was purchasing the whole, IN
reality only purchased three-tenths.
Dr.. Gillespy succeeded in obtaining
control of most of the heirs interests,
litigation followed, and the case is now
in the Court of Appeals for the second
time. Yesterday the former decree was
reversed to allow Capt. Jones to make
certain charges and credits for sums
extended in the development Of the
land upon which there is now some
thing like eighteen or twenty produc-
ing wells. but he will have to account
to the owners of the adverse interests
for seven-tenths of the oil produced
during the last three and one-half
wears. less the amounts of the credits
above referred to. Something like
s4OO 600 is involved. The contestants
are represented by H. P. Camden, the

3ASE BALL NOTES.

Wheeling has found their "Hoodoo."
Manager Coyle was not in uniform yes
tcrday and they shut Mansfield out.
Campbell had Mansfield at his mercy
yesterday. They did not get a hit off
him until the fifth inning.
Taylor is the boy for Nellie, both in
the field and at the bat. Arson, of
the Chicagos. is watching Cool Duck,
as the players have nick-named him.
Curtis landed on one in the ninth in
ming for two bases, which went over
the watch sign in centre field. If it
had been two feet lower he would have
received a gold watch, or two feet
higher he would have gotten a fine
hat from Dinger Bros Hard luck.
Vetters, our new right fielder. showed
up nicely, having two doubles and field
ed like a Veter'n.
loft. our new catcher, caught an
elegant game and batted good as the
hit column will show. Wheeling has
two of the best catchers in the league
Lyons and OBrien played their usual
goOd game.
Whaley made three long drives to
left field. Katz, by fast fielding, got
two of them, but the other one was
hit too hard. Smith is coming around
nicely.
Strothers has a good team. and Lath-
am is the right man in the game from
start TO finish. and the crowd is after
him all the time, but he stays with
them.
Ely and Somers run together in the
eighth inning. and Ely had 10 retire
from the game. his shoulder being in
jured.
Pitcher Burnett will be in the city
to-day. and if he can come TO terms

MARCO COZ HIS COIN.
MIR. EichhoIz, Who He'd 1t, Had to
Pay the Costs of Court.

A Grecian gold piece was the central
figure in a lawsuit tried before Justice
Bev.ns yesterday, the parties to which
were Leo Marco, fruit vender at West
Broad and Congress streets, ana Emanuel
Eichholz, a groceryman a. the corner of
East Broad street and Liberty lane.
Marco is native of Greece and was
the possessor of coin, which was equiv
client in value, in the country Of his ma
tivity, to about So in Amer can money. AS
it was a rare coin in this country, Marco
used Il for a watch charm, but had the
misfortune 10 lose watch, chain, charm and

thief was not known, but in order 10 run
him down If poss BILE, Marco placed the
case in the hnnds of Detective Barrett

possession Of Emanuel Eichholz, who stated

negro boy for the sum of $3.50 Mr.. Elchholz

CAUSED MUCH SURPRISE.
The Report of Charges Against Capt.
ObcrIin Nj. Carter.

There was much surprise expressed in
the city yesterday over the announcement
that charges had been preferred against
Capt o. NJ. Carter who was for so many
years in charge of the harbor work here.
The dispatches to the Morning News, how
ever, put the matter in a somewhat DIFF
ferent light from what was presented by
the first reports.
Inquiries at the United States engineers
office yesterday disclosed no Information
with regard to the matter. Capt Cas-
sius E. Gillette, the officer now in charge,
is in Washington. called there. it is pre-
sumed, by this particular case. IT is I'M
derstood that the books of the Office are
all perfectly straight, and that there is
no irregularty there upon which any
such charges could have been based.
All sorts Of talk were precipitated by
the report, and the absurdity of the
charge that 81 100000 had been made away
with was freely commented upon. Capt.
Carter was highly esteemed here, and it
is believed by many of his friends that
the investigation contemplated will show
that there was no ground for the charges.

O'Clock. The passenger department knew
that the train upon which they were to
arrive would make close connection with
the sailing hour of the vessel and
that the detention of the passengers at
Aeldrim would cause them TO miss the
vessel and subject them 10 other incon-
veuiences. There would be no chance for
news of Savannah having quarantined to
reach the passengers at their homes in
sufficient time for them to secure health
certificates. The Central's officials conse-
quently sought out the health authorities
and secured permission for the passengers
to pass Meldrim even If unprovided With
certificates. The Plant system got out its
circulars in the afternoon.
The railroad officials accept the quar-
antine personally as a wise precaution
and commend the measures establishing
IT. They think it a good means to insure
the citYs safety, but when II comes to a
consideration of the railroads business
they are not 50 well pleased. The pass
enger business is sure to decrease while
the quarantine is on, but, as one of the
officials remarked. 1T will not run as
low as it would il we should allow
yellow fever 20 get into the city. Peo-
pie will not travel" he continued "as
they do ordinarily, when trip entails
the trouble of being always provided with
certificate. The establishment of quar-
antine has a frightening sound and the
public begins TO get all sorts of Ideas. 1t
is believed that TO get on a train Will in
sure the contraction of the disease and
that the traveller may never see home
again.
a falling off in the passenger receipts
is expected at once and this will continue
until the quarantine is raised. The Cen
tral railroad passenger department thinks
so little of the business prospects that it
has decided to withdraw an excursion
that has been on foot from Athens, Mon
tlcello, Eatonton, Macon and other points
TO Savannah. 1t is thought that under
the circumstances the excursion
would not be successful as the people
would not care to patronize it as long as
quarantine is enforced. The excursion
was TO have been run Sept q, but if the
quarantine continues until that time 1t
will not be run. The officials say that
they are anxious to aid the public in ev-
cry possible way, and that the conductors
and agents along the routes will lend all
the assistance they can to the quaran-
tine officers. They want 1t understood
that the railroads are DESTROYS of quar-
antine. or any measure tending to the pub
lie safety, even though its enforcement
may injure their business.

er having served the congregation three or
four months Rev. Harris was recalled bv
Bishop Turner, but having taken sides
with the congregation against the blshop
and with over 1C0 members of the congre-
cation continued to hold services at an
other place.
The representatives. of the Colored
Methodist-Episcopal church, being aware
of this state of affairs, were not slow in
extending the seeding congregation an
invitation to their fo.d. The Invitation
was accepted and Bishop r. S. Williams
of Washington, d. c., came to Savannah
for purpose of presiding at the reception
of the new flock.

road Improvement and road building will
be discussed in all their details. These
meetings of the parliament are being
pushed forward of late largely by the BIZ
cyclists, who have had much to do In al
most every section with the good roads
movement. Since Supt Chaplin Is large
ly concerned with road building for the
county, il was deemed advisable to send

interest and value. The proceedings of
these conventions, together with all of the
leading papers read there on road sub

ings in book form.
Supt. Chaplin will return on Sunday or
