GRAND JURORS REPORTS USELESS.
Chairman DaIe's Opinion of Roads
and Drainage Inspections.

The grand Jurors who wanted to know
the other day how they were going to Sc
cure transportation for the purpose Of in
speeding the county roads, as is required
Of them, may as well make up their minds
TO walk. provide carriages themselves, or
not TO do any inspecting at all. The
County Commissioners say they cannot
provide carriages for the purpose under
the law, and there is an end of it.
IF there has been any change in the
law, don't know it," Chairman ]. j. Dale
or the County Commissioners remarked
yesterday when asked about the matter.
We cannot make presents to the grand
jurors any more than to anybody else. If
there has been no change in the law l do
not see how we can provide the transpor-
tation. There is an Alabama Supreme
Court decision, which covers the case, the
conditions there being similar to ours. 1t
is not our business to make the laws, but
only to obey them. Our attorney gives US
the law and we have to follow it. Former
commissioners furnished the carriages be
cause, no doubt they were not aware of
the fact that there was no provision in the
law by which they could do it,
Mr.. Dale called attention to the fact that
a grand juryman receives 81 a day. A COM
mittee of four grand jurymen would re-
ceive So for a days work therefor. For
"a they could hire carriage for an after
noon which could carry the whole com
mite out on an inspecting trip, and still
leave each of them a profit of 81 on the
days work
That's more than we commissioners
make in an entire year" Mr.. Dale remark
ed.
The commissioners, it seems, have been
asking themselves too, what's the use of
II? They consider that they know where
the defects in the roads are and where the
defects in the drainage are, and say they
attend to those matters as rapidly as they
can do so. A case in point was mentioned
where chairman of the grand jury COM
mittee appointed to inspect three roads
called on one Of the County Commission
ers to ask where those roads were located.
The commissioners know all about the
roads and drainage they say, and give
them ali the attention they can.
Il have often remarked" said one of
them, that more would be accomplished
by putting a spade in the hands of the
grand jurors and having them do days
work instead of inspecting and making
report. As long as the law remains as it
is, | do not see how the county can af-
ford to furnish them transportation

MANY SENT TO THE CITY COURT.
Recorder Hartridge's Contribution
10 Tudpa NarxvoOa,s noo1-oS

Recorder Hartridge's Contribution
to Judge NorwOOd's Docket.
Recorder Hartridge sent a good part of
the prisoners arraigned in Police Court
yesterday to the City Court on various
charges.
Sydney Brown was among the number.
He was charged with stealing brasses
and other appliances from railroad equip
ment. The offense is quite a serious one
against the railroad because of the danger
from impairing cars by stealing the most
important attachments to them and TAX
ing the property in such a manner as to
make it impossible for the trainmen to dis
cover the loss until the train is in motion.
The consequences in many cases are fav-
orable for wreck, and the railroads are
anxious that such characters as Brown
be apprehended. The case was sent by the
Recorder to the City Court, where 1T will
be further investigated.
The case of Lemon iDoyal a suspicious
character, but thought to be implicated
in robbing George Brown, a countryman,
on the Ogeechee road Tuesday night, was
continued TO await further proceedings by
the detectives. Brown was attacked by
TWO negroes Whlle on MS way nome ana
robbed of about $50. The result of serious
graphing with his assailants disfgured
Brown considerably and he was taken to
the Savannah Hospital, where he is now
confined from wounds about the head. Doy-
al may be held until Brown ascertains If
he can identify him.
Robert Henry, colored, was given thirty
days on the chain-gang for assaulting
George Robinson, who lives at No. 62S
Jones street west.
A German named John Welsh was also
arraigned for assaulting his wife, Eliza
beth Welsh, at East Broad and Wright
streets. The facts were such. that the Re-
corder considered the case demanded Sc
we're punishment and a sentence of thirty
days in jail was given the accused.
There was quite number of other small
offenders who received sentences of ten
days. The most of them constituted wo-
men, however, charged with drunkenness
and disorderly conduct on the streets.

The insurance situation continues to be
discussed by property owners and by the
agents representing companies in the
Southeastern Tariff Association. At pres
ent, however, no solution has been offered,
and the situation remains unchanged re-
garding any agreement between policy
holders and the companies
AS has been stated in the Morning
News, the position taken by the compa-
MES is that writing Insurance here at the
old rate has ceased to be an investment
on account of heavy losses caused by the
failure of the fire fighting service to pre-
vent destruction of property. This is es-
pecially claimed to be the case with stock
companies which do practically all the
business, excepting that done by the
Southern Mutual, and possibly one or two
other mutual companies.
A statement of premium, receipts and
losses of stock companies in Savannah,
commencing April 80, 1894, and ending
March l, 1898, has been prepared by a
local agent. The amounts mentioned for
the three years of 1895 and 1897, inclusive,
are understood to be from the sworn state
ments filed with the state controller.
