nah, Florida and Western Railway said
he had seen a large number of cars Of
Florida rock come in for the Atlantic Con-
tracing Company. 1t all appeared to be
good hard flint rock and there was not
more than per cent of 1t small rock.
Mr. j. H. Westerield civil engineer,
who was in this engineering district from
1881 to 1885, in the employ of the govern
ment, said he was first under Gen. @. A.
Gilmore. but Capt. B. D. Greene was in
direct charge. He saw engineering fas-
cines made of brush in 1885, made first I'M
der the direction of Capt. Abbott. These
fascines were not bundles OF
poles, but bundles of brush. The
phrase well trimmed" was in use
when he first came to this dis
trict under Gen. Gilmore. He understood
it to mean the cutting off of all branches
which projected from the fascines at right
angles.
Capt Thomas H. Laird, Jr., said he had
lived in Savannah since 1860. He went into
the service of Capt. Carter in 1886 as mas
ter Of the steamer Angler, and was in
that service almost continuously up to 1897.
Capt Laird testified upon several points
of interest in connection with the work.
He had seen and taken part in the manu-
facture of fascines. He considered them
well made and in accordance with The
specifca tons as he understood them. He
also gave some testimony for the defense
relative to The quarantine rock.
Charles Sweeney who has been a pilot
here since 1874, was master of the tug
Turner in 1882. He had seen mattresses
made and had walked over them and con-
sidered they were always well made. He
had frequently knocked mattresses off the
barge with the tug, the force frequently
damaging or breaking the tugs stem, but
not damaging the mattress. He had
heard Capt Garter tell Mr.. Cooper 10
keep the contractors up to specifications.
William NJ. Council, at present an under
taker. was in the employ of the Atlantic
Contracting Company at intervals during
a. period of five years He had worked IN
the brush and mattress camps for Greene
and Gavnor at Cumberland sound, at Skid
way Island and on Hilton Head. He tea-
titled as TO the general good quality of the
fascjnes and mattresses made while he
was in charge of the work. He had paid
as high as $3.50 day for labor, and then
again had paid 215 to 8 or 10 cents bundle
for fascines.
William Harris, another foreman In the
brush camps. testified as to the character
of the work done there. Good chokers were
used, either of chain or rope.
Clarence c. Cole, the next witness, had
been ia the employ of the Atlantic Con-
tracing Company since 1892. He was en-
ployed as foreman of a mat camp ana
saw that the fascines were well construct
ed and tightly choked. The court adjourn
ed until 1890 o'clock this morning.

The action Of the Mayor, the city engi-

additional work at the quarantine station
was ratified.
The chairman of the market committee
was authorized TO spend $50 TO pave the
sidewalk on the south side of the market.
The committee on harbor and wharves
reported that the telephone line TO the
quarantine station would be completed this
month. Considerable work has been done

The committee on streets and lanes re-
ported favorably upon the petitions of res
idents and property owners of Duffy and
Anderson streets for the retention of the
present track on Duffy street and against
the double tracking of Anderson street.
Mayor Meldrim inquired what would be
the effect of the adoption of their report.
Alderman Davis replied that il would be
to confirm the loop on Duffy and Ander
son street which had been asked for by
the railroad i'm preference to double
track on Duffy street.
A petition was received from merchants
and property owners on st. Julian street
asking for the pavement of that street
from jefferson to Franklin square with
vitri1ed brick.
Hunter, Pearce & Battey petitioned for
protection from the street railway com
pany as TO its track in front of their place
| of business on Bay street.
Alderman Davis said the matter had
been settled by the court, which had dis
solved its temporary injunction and de-
clined to interfere between the city ana
the street railway.
The matter was discussed by several Of
the aldermen, some of whom thought it
should be passed upon at once, as the rail-
road company is now laying its tracks at
this point
Alderman Krouskoff said 1t would be i'm
| possible to give relief without moving the
entire track to the north side of Bay
/ street.
| Alderman Davis contended that there
was no hardship. The petitioners had as
, much room in front of the store as they
| ever had, he said The railway company
had been given permission to lay the track
and had gone to the expense of purchasing
a curb
Alderman Hull said that when the con-
tract with the street railway company
was agreed upon it was understood that
in the matter of double tracks on Bay
| street the tracks should be so laid as not
