DIR. L1NLEY's RESIGNATION.
VIII BE Acted Upon by the Sanitary
Rnnrd To-Hny.

The resignation Of DR.. William j. Lin
ley as quarantine officer viii be, among the
matters to come before the sanitary board
this afternoon. 1t Is not known what ac-
lion viii he taken yet, as the members de-
sire to be informed of the fun facts before
making up their minds.
Health Officer LeHardy visited the quar-
antine station yesterday for the purpose
of attending to matters there requiring his
personal attention. lie was received very
kindly by DR.. Llnley, and their relations
were different from what they were when
he was last there. BY some it is believed
the APPARENT unfriendliness that recently
existed VIII heal, and that the board viii
have entirely different facts TO consider
from those which developed just after DR..
LeHardy's visit Of last Friday
In case DR.. Linley retires the belief pre-
walls that there may be some further
changes as to officials at the station At
least some members have stated they be-
lieved there should be two officers, one a
young man, who would remain there the
entire year, and the other a skillful and
experienced physician, who would remain
only few months, or during the busy
season. The first official would attend to
all mechanical matters, such as disinfec-
tons and Improvements, while the other
tons. Whether such a change will be
suggested is not known, though some
members of the board, as stated, favor
something of the kind.
1t Is understood also that the recent
resolution of the board not TO post plac-
ards where houses have cases of scarlet
and other fevers, will come UP for discus
sion. The resolution was adopted in or
der not 10 injure the prospects of rent
ing or selling property where the fever
had been. Some property owners claimed
il was difficult to rent houses where it
was known fever had been, and for this
reason, as well as the fact that it takes but
few piaeards to arouse unnecessary
alarm, the board dispensed with them.
Physicians claim this course is very in
expedient in case fever should develop in
Savannah, and on this account. as also
that opposition to the resolution exists IN
the board, Mayor Meldrim determined to
bring it before the meeting for further
consideration. Any action taken as to at

CHECKING UP TAXABLE GOODS.
Collector Basch Looking After Cigar,
Snuff and Tobacco stock.

Deputy Internal Revenue Collector The
odore Basch began the work yesterday of
ascertaining the cigars, snuff and tobacco
stocks carried by the wholesalers of Sa-
vannah which would be liable to the war
tax.
Blanks were supplied all the jobbers, on
which they make reports of the stocks
carried liable to the new tax. 1t is the
duty of the deputy collector to check up
these reports with the stocks and books
and ascertain if the statements are abso-
luAely correct. The job is not one that
is quickly done, as ii is necessary to find
how much stuff has been sold that is liza
BILE to the tax, as well as how much is
on hand from which the government will
get an additional revenue
The owners, dealers, agents or brokers
of cigars cigarettes and tobaccos are al
lowed 1000 pounds of tobacco and 10000
cigars or cigarettes which are not SUBJ
ject to the war tax. All other stocks
in hand on June IA, on which the regular
stamps were affixed after April IA, are La
BILE and must be accounted for. Under the
law all tho stocks on hand on the day
the bill became a law must bear the ad-
ditional burden. AS considerable stuff has
been sold since that time by jobbers. the
stocks on hand do not represent ali from
which the government will derive this war
revenue.
In the summer months the stocks Of
tobaccos are generally allowed to run
down. At the same time those carried
here are ample enough to give a very de-
cent return to the internal revenue de-
partment. The additional tax is as fol-
lows: Tobacco. chewing and smoking. 8
cents per pound; snuff, cents per pound j.,
cigars weighing more than three pounds
per thousand, 30 cents per thousand; ell
garettes, the same. Cigarettes weighing
not more than three pounds to the thous-
and pay % cents per thousand. There is
no additional tax on small cigars weigh

Temperature To-day VIII BE Like
That of Sunday and Yesterday.
1t is some satisfaction 10 know that yes
terday was three-tenths of a degree cooler
than the day before. But for the delicacy
with which the instrument at the weather
bureau measures the temperature the pub
lie would not have known this fact, and
would have gone on in blssful ignorance
of this difference in the heat.
The maximum temperature was 96 de-
grees, while the minimum was twenty de-
grees lower. Between SO and
76 degrees there is room for
various degrees of feeling, the
chief sentiment, though, being that San
tiago can't be much worse with its sea
breezes. AT 76 degrees there is ample
chance for the perspiration to flow freely
and for the sickness and uncomfortable
ness of summer to be constantly in mind.

two days, and from indications flannel

neighborhood for some time to come.
Ii is always pleasant to know that other
places are hotter than Savannah. One
hardly realizes what really
glorious climate this city has until he
reads that at Americas yesterday the
thermometer registered 102 in the shade
while at Milien the temperature was 100
degrees. savannah S 96 takes on quite a
frgid feeling by comparison.

SHORT IN HIS ACCOUNTS.
Ernest II. Rickett Under Charges of
Larceny After Trust.


Larceny After Trust.
Earnest H. Rickett, five years bookkeep-
er for Mr.. Leopold Adler, was arrested
yesterday on three warrants charging him
with larceny after trust. The warrants
were sworn out by Mr. Adler, after being
convinced there was a shortage of about
800 on the books.
The detectives made the arrest about
noon, while Rickett was engaged at his
desk. He was astounded when the OH
GERS told him their business. and asked at
once to see Mr.. Adler, which was not
practicable at the time. After being con-
fined, however, Rickett sent for Mr. Ad-
Ter and admitted he had been taking
money in small amounts from the store
several months, but thought that as others
had been excused. he would be treated
likewise If his shortage were discovered
Ihis is the very reason, however, that
prompted Mr.. Adler to prosecute the case
Ihere are nearly $50 employees in his
stores, three or four of whom have taken
money belonging to the store within the
past year. In every instance, however. he
has overlooked the infractions, and allow
ed the hayward to go unpublished He he
IleVeS advantage is being taken of his
leniency, however, as is evidenced by the
TACT tpat young Rlckett asked to be ex-
cused on the ground others had not been
prosecuted Mr.. Adler determined there
fore, to take stand which will emphasize
to all employees that dishonesty will be pun
ished.
An effort is being made to have young
Rickett released on bond, which. II is I'M
derstood may be accomplished to-day. and
an effort wall also be made to settle the
case altogether. Rckett has number of
friends in Savannah who regret his en-
barrassment, and entertain hopes that he

Anti-LiberaIs VIII Remain on the

The twelve members of the Democratic
executive committee who are allied with
the anti-Liberal Club faction say they do
not propose to resign from the committee.
At least they have no such idea at pres
ent. There is no reason why they should
resign, some of them say, and there are
good reasons they think why they should
not to be hasty in taking such step. For
some time TO come, therefore, the Liberal
Club committee men will evidently have
no opportunity to fill vacancies caused by
the withdrawal of their opponents.

leaders yesterday, land we do rot propose

IL may be under the circumstances. There

1t is rumored that there may be another
primary called this time by the twelve

election of delegates to the senatorial CON
tentlon, and a contest be made before that
body for a division of the seats and votes
from Chatham. If this is done. and there
is no doubt that such a step is under con-
eideration, the senatorial convention may
develop into a lively meeting and lead to
two candidates being put out in the 6ls-

of the institution, they having completed
the two years course. Rev Alexander
Harris presented the diplomas. There
were music and songs on the programme,
ana the selections We're very attractively
rendered
Mayor Meldrim's talk dealt with the dis
proportionately large death rate amongst
the colored people, assigning as the prob
able cause of this state of facts the want
of proper sanitation and adequate ventila-
ton in their houses, which for the most
part are small and close. These evils,
Mayor Meldrim urged his hearers to en-
deaVor to correct, and recounted the adj
vantage of having trained nurses, who
are not only of benefit TO the sick but a
valuable help to the physicians
The Mayor complimented the McKane
Hospital very highly on its good showing.
and advised the colored people Of Savan-
nah to encourage all such efforts in this
direction, as it tended to their own ad-
vancement and promoted their self-re-
lance.
AT the close of Mayor Meldrim's speech
the audience arose in expression of their
appreciation for his friendly remarks.
The McKane Hospital is on Sixth street.
