DRAINAGE NEAR THE CITY.
Twenty-Five Men Now at Work and
Others to BE Added soon.

The County Commissioners have already
begun the work Of cleaning and slushing
the drains and bitches near and around the
city.
Nearly week ago the drainage commit
lee OF the board put gang of men 20
work on the drainage just south Of the
city on the White Bluff road. Work was
begun on the DeRenne property, and for
the present will be continued along in that
section. They are also working on the
Casey canal.
The gang on this work varies in num-
Der from twenty-five to about fifty men,
one OF the commissioners stated yester-
day. Whenever large shipment of Au-
gusta gravel is received for Dale avenue
part of the gang, about twenty-five men,
is taken out TO work on the road, and get
the gravel down. When there is a luil In
the road work these men return to the
drainage, 50 that the gang varies, AS
stated,
There are about thirty men at work reg
ularly on Dale avenue, and about as many
more at work regularly on the drainage
near the city. There are about sixty-ive
men at WORK in Buckhalter swamp. and
the balance of the convict force women,
boys and decrepits, is kept at the camps
or on the county farm.
There is a difference of opinion among
the commissioners as 10 the condition CT
the drains around the city, Commissioner
hehoe taking the stand that they are in
an unsanitary condition, and need prompt
attention, on account of the approach of
the not season. All of the other commits
sioners contest this position, and say that
the drains are not in such a bad condition
Com q
say there is no necessity at present of
putting all the convict force on the drains
near the city, for two reasons. The first
IS that these drains were all cleansed out
last September and October, at the time
or the yellow fever scare, and the second
is that the county has never heretofore
started the work of cleaning the drains
near the city until April l. They state,
therefore, that they have actually begun
the work this year some two or three
weeks earlier than has been the case in
other years.
Commissioner Kehoe thinks, however,
that in view of the yellow fever scare
last year, and the fact that all OF the
drains were not cleaned at the time that
immediate action should be taken as pre-
cautionary measure and for the purpose
of allaying all fears on the part OF the
people so far as the sanitary condition of
the surrounding country is concerned.
Tt is the purpose of the drainage COM
mittee, the other commissioners state, to
augment the force now at work on the
drains near the city just as soon as Dale
avenue is completed, which, they say, will
be within a short time. If found neces-
sary, the force will also be brought in
from Buckhalter, and the entire gang put
on the work. 1t was also announced yes
terday that an additional gang will be put
on the drainage near the city within few
daVS

JESSE DE LOACH ACQUITTED.
Jury Finds Him Not Guilty of the
Murder of Edward Foster

Jesse DeLoach, a 17-year-old colored how
was acquitted of the charge of murder
in the Superior Court yesterday. the trial
being concluded before the dinner hour
Boisey DeLoach and Jesse DeLoach, two
brothers, were indicted by the grand jury
for the murder of Edward Foster, anothe,
negro about the same age as Jesse De-
Leach, on Feb. is last. The killing tool,
place on the Pine Barren road, about fif-
teen miles from the city
The affair grew out of a row between
a lot of negro boys, which, as such things
sometimes do. took serious turn. The
evidence showed that the defendant had
nothing whatever to do with the killing
Whlch was actually done by his brother
Boisey DeLoach. The dead man. II seems
was slapped by Jesse DeLoach. as the re-,
suit OF the row. Foster then shot at De-
Loach' who began beating him with a
STICK. AS Foster fired at Jesse DeI,oach
a second time, Boisey DeLoach raised his
shotgun and fired, striking Foster In the
slde. roster ran short distance and fell
dying soon afterward as the result<of the
wound.
1t was held by the defense that the
killing was justifable. In behalf of the
defendant Jesse DeLoach ii was held that
even If Boisey DeLoach was culpable for
shooting Foster Jesse DeLoach could not
be held responsible since he had nothing
Whatever to do with the shooting. The
jury appeared to take this view of the
case and after consultation of nearly
an hour returned a verdict of not guilty.
Jesse DeLoach hobbled into the court
room yesterday on a. stick, and walked
with n1a Il
shot that was fired by Foster struck him
in the thigh, and 1t is said the bullet has
never been extracted. II is claimed that
Boisey DeLoach was defending his brother
when he fired the shot that killed Foster.
The state was represented by Mr.. d. G
Barrow, Jr., who made the argument for
the prosecution. DeLoach was defended
by Messrs w. P. LaRoache, e. c. RIVALS
and Bascom Myrick. Boisey DeLoach. the
brother who did the shooting made his
escape at the time and hes never been
captured

GUARDS RECRUITING RAPIDLY.
The battalion ON "A War Footing If
Trouble Comes


The March meeting of the Savannah
Volunteer Guards was held last night at
their hall. There was very little business
to be considered. and the meeting was ad-
journed a short time after 1t was called
to order by Col, William Garrard.
Those attending were impressed with the
large number of applications for member
ship. Just at this time, with the war cloud
looming up above the horizon. this was
taken as an indication that there would be
no difficulty in bringing the ranks of the
Guards up TO the fighting limit in case of
hostiltt!es
Many are asking to become members in
the face of possible trouble with Spain.
Many more than the usual number of new
members were received. 1t is not unlikely
that some of the applications were made
in order that young j;ngoes would not be
put to the trouble of enlisting in the event
of the strained relations between the two
countries being unable much longer to
stand the pressure.
The appointment of Privates L. w. walker
and A. p. Wright to be corporals 10 fill
vacancies in Company Is was announced.

REGISTRATION MOVING SLOW.
Those Who Come in Now Can Avoid
the Rush That Is sure to Come.


The registration of Chatham county's
voters is progressing altogether too slow
ly considering the fact that this is a po-
liucal year. and that besides a primary or
two there will likely be one of two cleo
tons, to say the least.
When the registration books were first
opened along in January and in the early
part of February there was quite a rush
in Capt. McGowans Office, and Registra-
ton Clerk Sullivan had about all he could
attend to during the registration hours,
but now it is different and the change
does not forbode any good.
The total registration at the closing hour
yesterday was only 1924, of which 1,490
are white voters and 1874 colored. The
total registration two years ago was some
thing like $500 or more. and If it is going
to he anything like that this year. 1t is
time those who want to vote were putting
I'm their appearance The number who
register daily runs now, and has for the
last two or three weeks, from something
like eight to fifteen, whereas six weeks or
more ago the registration was from sixty
to eighty a day.
Now is the best time for business men,
who do not want TO stand IN line ana
wait, to get their names on the list. IL rs
only a matter of two or three minutes at
the most, but when the time for the prim-
airy approaches In June, and for several
weeks before there will be paying Ct
taxes and a rush of those who always wait
until the last minute many of whom Of
ten get left out. It is believed the regis
tration this year will be finally pretty
near, if not quite, as large as it was in
1895 but it will not be IL voters continue
70 walt until the last minute.
