LUND is DEAD.
Victim Of the Accident in Mclean
County Unable to Withstand
Necessary Operations.
Enfeebled by Exposure and Suffering
He Sinks from Secondary Shock
Of Amputation.
Herman Lund Dead.

Herman Lund, the. unfortunate young
man who met with an accident on the
road from Velva to Coal Harbor two
weeks ago, and lay out on the prairie
for sixty hours before rescued, died at
the hospital at about 5 O'Clock last even
ing of secondary shock, after an opera
ton for the removal of his right leg,
which was amputated just below the
hip. Lund rallied from the operation
and came out from the influence of the
anasthetic favorably, but two hours
afterward succumbed to a secondary
shock. At shortly before S O'clock he
began to sink, and although everything
possible was done for him, he died at
shortly after 5.
The case of Lund was one of the sad.
dest that has come to the attention of
the hospital authorities or physicians
for some time and the particulars of the
accident were recounted at the time of
the accident. He fell under a wagon
while freighting to Coal Harbor, and
his right leg was broken. Helpless and
unable to move he lay there from Satur-
day night until Tuesday morning before
he was found. The weather was cold,
and aside from the injury to his leg,
both legs and arms were frozen, so badly
that amputation was the only possible
hope of saving his life.
The first operation was performed
about a week ago, when the left leg was
taken off just above the knee, and the
right arm about two inches above the
wrist. The shock of the first operation
was such that it was necessary to delay
the second until the patient had recov-
cred in a measure, and Lund rallied
we'll from the first operation, and was
anxious for the second, desiring last
week that the second operation be per-
formed. Yesterday the second opera
ton was performed, Drs. Harcourt, Bal
lard, Stark and Goeschel amputating
the limb. The operation was quickly
and successfully PERFORMED, but the
secondary shock was too great for the
patient to withstand.
The long suffering and exposure of
the patient prior to his receiving medi-
cal attendance, the freezing of all ex-
tremities, and the consequent weakened
condition of the whole system has rem
dered the recovery of Lund very doubt
full from the first, owing to the number
Of amputations that were necessary to
give him a chance for life. Had be
lived, it would have been necessary to
take off the left hand also, SO that the
unfortunate man would have been prac.
tically helpless as long as he had lived.
The f ther and brother of the unfor.
tunate young mar were with him at the
time of his death, and the father will
drive with the remains to Eureka, S. D.,
a distance of ITO miles, where they
will be buried. The deceased young
man was % years Of age, and has severaI
brothers who have a ranch north OF
Washburn. He was a bright and ener
getic young man, and all during his SUI;
fering has been brave, courageous anc
patient.

FIRE DEPARTMENT. BUDGET.
The Commission Asks for 10000
for Next Year.

The Fire Commission completed its bud
get estimates of its needs for 1899 yester-
day and mailed it TO the Mayor last
night. The estimate calls for $4,000 for the
ensuing year, as against $65 600 for this
year. This is exclusive of the $500 still
due on the new fire engine.
This years budget was cut down TO S65. =
600 from $4,000 the previous year and the
commissioners state that the former
amount is insufficient in their Judgment
for the proper conduct of the department.
NO new improvements of Importance are
recommended, though several minor mat
ters are mentioned.
One of the commissioners said last night
that he had thought of urging an appro-
priation to erect residence on the lot at
fire headquarters for the chief. in order
that he might live at Headquarters. It
was not thought likely that Council would
make the appropriation, however a large
payment still remaining to be made on the
new fire engine, so the recommendation
was not made.

NEW ELECTRIC LIGHT PLANT.
Edison Company VIII Build on Low
er Rice Mill Site.

The Edison Electric Illuminating Com
pany. the new competitor-to-be of he
Brush Electric Light and Power Com
pany has purchased the site of the cd
lower rice mill and viii erect there It's
plant for furnishing light and power.
River street. it viii be remembered, has
been recently opened through this site,
and divides the property. The power house
VIII be erected on the River street side
ana will be 50 constructed as to allow Of
an increase of space and additions 10 the
plant with the growth of business.
President George J. Baldwin Of the Edi-
son Company, said yesterday that work
on the power house would begin in about
SIX weeks. II is expected to have the
power house and plant compete and in
readiness for operation about June !. The
company viii begin making contracts for
furnishing electric lighting and power
within the next six or eight weeks, how
ever.
AS has already been announced both the
Edison company and the Brush company
VIII place their wires in the business sec
ton under ground. This Will be a great
Improvement and one which will add much
TO the appearance as well as TO the safety
Of the business district.
The investment which the company Will
be required TO make in order to establish
its plant and place it in readiness for
operation is estimated at about $4,000
This will be Increased as the needs of the
business require. The company will do
general electric lighting and power bust
ness" said President Baldwin. 1T is rot
our expectation to live upon the business
of the other company. We believe that
the use of electric lighting and power is On
the Increase and that there is a large
undeveloped field here which We propose
to take advantage of. In the course of
competition we shah probably secure some
of the business now held by the Brush
company, but we have no intention Of in
augurating a general siashing of rates for
the purpose of securing business now held
by the other company We do not believe
that sort of business will be profitable,
either to us or the community"
The new company as was announced
some time since. is backed by Boston cap
italists. Mr.. George J. Baldwin of Sa-
yannah, Is president, Mr.. NJ. P. Clough Of
Boston, vice president; Mr.. w. Cameron
Forbes of Boston, treasurer, and Mr.. w.

CAME NEAR BEING A PANIC.
Cry of "Fiahf' at Thenter Mistaken
for "Fire."


Because some thoughtless and excited
person yelled fight at the theater last
night there came near being a panic. The
house was packed to the doors and had it
not been for the presence of mind of sew
eral people there is no doubt that there
would have been a serious loss of life.
The performance had not been in pro-
gress long when two soldiers in the gallery
became involved in a fight Some one
cried out fight" which the people in the
parquet mistook for a cry of fire and ev-
erybody in the front part of the house
started for the doors The noise of the
fight upstairs and the rush downstairs
naturally heightened the tension.
Only one of the doors leading TO the
foyer Of the house was open. The other
was closed and as the crowd struck IL it
gave way, but only after two colored pains
Of glass had been smashed. At this stage
Assistant Chief of Police owen REILLY,
who was in the back of the audience
jumped up and tod the people to keep
their seats. Lieut.. DoTrity of the One
Hundred and Sixty-first Indiana, who was
with Lieut.. Reilly, also helped to quiet the
audience. Many of the people went right
on out to the street, but returned in a
few moments.
Mr.. Baldwin went on the stage as soon
as he could reach it and explained the
cause of the trouble to the audience, after
which the play went on and the audience
became queted.
There was no doubt of people down
stairs being thoroughly frightened. Sew
eral ladies nearly swooned away from
fright.
Fortunately no one was hurt. One man
was slightly scratched when the glass was
smashed and many Of the men were jost-
led and mashed up considerably, but this
was all.

COL. BROWN HERE.
Men of First Battalion Sign Muster
Rolls.


The men of the First Battalion of the
Second Georgia Regiment viii soon be out
Of the service of the United States. The
company clerks and their as
sstauts worked all Thursday
night getting the muster rolls
in shape, and the men were busy yester-
day and last night signing the rolls.
There was quite a crowd of the men
at the Guards Hall attaching their sig
natures to the muster-out rolls. The men
were notified at ron call in the afternoon
that those who did not sign the rolls by
last night would risk the loss of their pay.
The rolls were transferred to the Guards
armory as a more convenient place for the
work. Each man had to sign five rolls.
1t is intended to furnish the necessary rolls
to the paymaster to-day in order that
there may be no delay an paying off the
men next week. The paymasters always
require a day or two to hook over and
verify the rolls and figure out the amount
of money required.
Col Oscar J. Brown of the Second Geor-
gia Regiment arrived in the city yesterday
and is at the De Soto. Col. Brown inform
ed a Morning News reporter that he had
come here to see what progress the First
Battalion had made in the work of mus
tering out and to sign some necessary pa
pers. These papers could have been sent
to Atlanta for his signature, but as the
other two battalions are moi as well ad-
vanced with their work as the first it
was just as convenient for him to come
here.
Col. Brown received cordial welcome
from the officers of the First Battalion,
all of whom appreciate his interest in the
battalion as manifested by his visit. 1t
was also noticed that Col Brown had a
hearty handshake for every member of the
Second Georgia who approached him, Of
fcer or private. His fairness in dealing
with the enlisted men was one of the
sources of Col. Browns popularity with
his men. No private ever made a COM
plant to Col Brown that it did not receive
prompt attention and yet there was proba-
bly, no regiment in the service where so
few complaints were made. Col. Brown
has number of friends and acquaintances
here, both among army officers and citi-
zens, and he was kept busy last night ex-
changing greetings and "reminiscences.
The First Battalion will get out of the
service a week or ten days ahead of the
Atlanta battalion, being that much further
ahead with its work.

Savannah Bankers See No Need for
State Bank Issues.

ATSuCSs
The bankers in Savannah do not take
much stock in Representative Martin
Calvins bill, the intent of which is to Sc
cure test case of the federal tax of 10
per cent. on state bank issues.
The bill provides that the state shall
issue to any chartered bank of various
denominations, equal to 70 per cent of its
capital stock, and if any bank declines
to pay the 10 per cent tax the attorney
general shall test the matter in the United
States Supreme Court Mr.. Calvin says
he has assurances from several prominent
bankers 10 the effect that they will take
advantage OF the law to bring on test
case
According to the best Information the plan
is for a number of banks throughout the
state 10 subscribe $4,000, the smallest
amount with which bank can be char
tered, state bank notes will then be is
sued through this institution in accord
ance with the provisions of the Calvin bill,
and a test case made when the federal
authorities attempt to collect the 10 per
cent tax.
Savannah bankers will hardly go into
any such plan. Several of them stated
yesterday that they would not There is
no need, they say, for any state bank
circulation, when there is more money on
hand now in most of them than there is
any necessity for. Practically all of the
banks in Savannah have more money thad
they know what to do with, and ii is go
ing begging Any one who wants money
now will have no trouble in getting it
with good collateral and at a very rea-
sonable rate of interest. Under these cir
eumstances, the bankers of Savannah do

effort to get them in circulation. No Sa-
vannah bankers, so far as is known, will
take any part In the test case.

METEORs SCARCE SIGHTS.
Weather Has Been UnfavOrable for
Observing What Few There Were.


Observing What Few There Were.
The bad weather of the last few days
has prevented an observation of the me
teors that were expected to put in an ap-
pearance. Savannahians have not known
whether the darting masses were shoot
ing about in the earth's neighborhood or
not. as the clouds have prevented anyone
in the section from seeing them. The
weather conditions have been generally
cloudy all over the United States, so
that reports from other sections cannot
be taken.
1t is possible that a great deal was not
missed, as the meteoric belt through
which the earth passes every year is an
unreliable sort of an affair. Sometimes
there is a great display, while at other
times of the passage there are but few
meteors to be seen.
Mr.. Otis Ashmore, who is greatly inter-
ested in all matters pertaining 10 the heav-
ems and who is an astronomer of no mean
ability and knowledge, has been rather
disappointed on account of the veil Of
clouds having iuterfered to prevent a sight
OF the display. This disappointment is
tempered with the uncertainty, however,
of the mcteors, as it is possible that Moth
ing unusual would have been seen had the
weather been clear. The reports from
Lick observatory are that the display has
been a very meager and disappointing one
