BRIDGES BADLY DAMAGED.
County Commissioners VIII Not
Drain the Vale Royal Section.

Drdlh the Nnie hOyRI section.
The County Commissioners held their
regular monthly meeting yesterday.
Sometime ago Messrs Joseph Hull, L.
w. Haskell and others, who represent
property just west of the city, wrote to
the County Commissioners asking them 10
attend to the drainage Of that section.
The commissioners considered that the
work should be done by the city and the
letter was referred to the city
The letter went to Mayor Meldrim's
hands, and he wrote a reply with Ie-
gard to 1t to Health Officer LeHardy
Mayor Meldrim stated In his letter that
only a small portion of the Vale Royal
canal which It was proposed to drain was
in the city limits, that there was no obli-
cation on the city's part to give the peo-
pie complaining, drainage facilities; that
the city was not backing any water upon
their premises; that hey should drain their
own premises and if they needed any es-
sistance they should go to the County
commissioners. He did not recognize any
obligation on the part of the city to en-
large any canal for the benefit of prop
erty outside the city. The Mayor stated
however, that the city was ready to work
In harmony with the county authorities
wherever necessary.
Dr. LeHardy sent this letter to the
County Commissioners asking their con-
sideration of the matter The commits
sioners consider that they are in no wise
obligated TO do the work, and 1t appears
that they will not undertake it. though no
definite action has been taken on that
subject The property owners in question
stated they would hold the county au-
thorities responsible if the drainage vas
not attended to. The commissioners feel
they are not legally responsible in any
manner, and a reply to DR.. LeHardy to
this effect will be sent at once by the
county attorney.
Superintendent of Public Works w. F.
Chaplin reported to the commissioners
that the storm of Aug. 80 had destroyed
the bridges over Black and Augustine
creeks on the Augusta road, over the Lit
tie Ogeechee on the Ogeechee road, the
tents used by the convicts on the Mid
dleground road, and that it had damaged
about all of the bridges in the county.
The work of repairing the damage, how
ever is progressing rapidly.
The petitions of William II. Prendergast
for relief from double tax, and of Rep
pard, Snedeker & Co. for a reduction
of the valuation of their property, were
referred to the chairman, with power to
act
The clerk was authorized to issue a pro
anus warrant III place Oh warrant NO.

The petition of the residents of Nicker-

to the committee on drainage.

fled as constable for the Third militia dis
trict the appointment being made at the
request of Justice Charles d. Kline.
Contracts for county supplies were
awarded as follows: General supplies, j.

SUPREME COUNCIL OF RED MEN.
Delegate Mnnucy Left for Indianapo-
lis Last Night.

The members of the Improved Order of
Redmen in this city, as well as those
throughout the country, are looking for
ward with great deal of interest to the
session of the great council of the United
States, the supreme head of the order,
which convenes in indianapolis Ind, for
the week commencing Sept 10.
The session will be one Of the most i'm
portant in the history of the order, as
there are several amendments to the con-
stituuon, offered at the last meeting.
which will come up for final action. One
of the most important is to prevent "sa-
Ioonkeepers or any one engaged in the sale
OF liquors as a beverage in any capacity
becoming member of the order
The great council of this state, at its
annual session held in the city of Angus
ia last May, unanimously adopted a reso-
tuition instructing the representatives from
Georgia TO vote In favor of and use all
honorable means for the adoption of the
above amendment.
There is considerable feeling relative TO
the wisdom of this proposed law, and a
hVely fight Is anticipated. 1t will require
two-third vote TO adopt 1t.
The order of Red Men is one of the larg-
est fraternal organizations in this coun-
try. There are over 1000 tribes with a
membership of upwards of 100000. In Geor-
gia there are so tribes with nearly 4O0C
members.
The Great Incohonee, the supreme head
OF the order, is a Georgian, Judge Robert
l. Daniel of Griffin His term of office, two
years, eXpires next week, and he win be
succeeded by Hon. George e. Green, may
or OF Binghamton, n. Y.
Inc order was founded in the CITY of
Boston, Mass, in the year IT'S by the
sons of liberty" those revolutionary pa
trlots who took part in that little tea
party with the British.
The Red Men" is purely an American
order, and seeks to perpetuate and keen
alive the manners and customs of the
primitive red man. In lis ritual is en-
grated great deal of the mythology and
characteristics of the aborigines race OF
people, who are fast giving way to the on
ward march of civilization. The members
OF the order at Indianapolis have arranged
very elaborate programme for the enter
tainment of the delegates.
Mr.. A. N. Manucy of Savannah, is one

property was merged into the Savannah,

GOVERNMENT OF CONvICTs.
Commissioners Suggest Two Changes
in Prison COmmissiOn's Rules.

commissioners Suggest Two Changes
in Prison Commissions Rules.
The County Commissioners had before
them at their meeting yesterday a copy
of the rules and regulations for the gov
eminent of convict camps as established
by the prison commissioners of the state,
and by which all county chain-gangs
must be governed
These regulations differ In some points
from those Of force in Chatham county.
There is little In them to which the COM
missioners find any objection, but the
prison commissioners have asked for sug-
gestions, and a few were made. The
clerk of the board was instructed TO write
the prison commissioners stating the sug-
gestions as offered by the board.
In the first place the regulations laid
down by the prison commissioners call
for wooden outer clothing. The convicts
here are furnished wooden Undertaking
which answers better in this climate, the
commissioners think, and they want to
be allowed to act in that matter in ac-
cordance with their judgment
The second request which the COM
n1issioners will make is that they be al
lowed TO furnish the Chatham county
convicts with corn bread instead of wheat
bread as prescribed in the regulations
The convicts here prefer corn bread and
thrive well on It, These are the only
changes which the commissioners desire,
so far as Chatham county Is concerned.

FREIGHT AND MAILS MOVED.

railroads Unable to Estimate the
Damage They Have Suffered.
To-day the railroads will all be moving
as though there had been no flood. except
that somewhat slower time will have to
be made over a portion of their lines.
The Central Florida Central and Pen
insular, and Georgia and Alabama are
rapidly catching up with their delayed
business. Freights were sent out of Sa-
vannah yesterday in large quantities and
there We're large arrivals of merchandise
which had been held from one to five or
six days by the washouts.
The mails are about righted, there be-
ing but one partly filed sack at the post
office last night for local point which
viii go out this morning. All mails are
now arriving. although somewhat late.
and the ltsadvautages business men and
the public generally labored under may
be considered as over.
No estimate of the damage done to the
railroads can be obtained All that can
be said Is that to each of them it was
quite heavy, running up in the aggregat ia
for all to many thousands of dollars.
While trains are now running the repairs
are far from being all made. Large gangs,
with much road-bed material, will be
needed for some days to put the roads
back where they were before the storm.
The Florida Central and Peninsular and
the Georgia and Alabama are now in posi-
ton to handle promptly all business com
ing to them. The Florida Central and
Peninsular has had its northern service
running over its own tracks since We'd
nesday
