TAR STALLED THE CARS.
Cut on the Current, Though Some
Thought IL stuck Them Fast.

The unusual sight of an electric car stall
ed and unable to move while the current
was stin in good working order was seen
at Whitaker and ST. Julian streets yester-
Jay. The trolley was not off and neither
was the fuse burned out The liberal
appliance of coal tar, which Director
Gadsden's assistants had been making to
the new brick pavement accounted for the
difficulty
In order TO prevent the bricks alongside
and between the rails from beng shaken
out of place by the vibrations caused by
the passage of the street cars hot tar had
been literally applied. Being in a molten
state the tar had run upon the rails. The
street car men were not slow in discov-
ering that coal car is frst-class non
conductor When the cars struck "a point
where the coating of tar interviewed be-
tween the rails and the wheels the cur
rent ceased to operate and the cars came
to a stop. This occurred several times
during the day
The conductors and motormen had the
idea that their cars had stuck to the track
and tried to sever the connection by bounc-
ing uD and down on the platforms, but
this had no effect Rightly holding the
city responsible for these accidents, the
street railway men called on the city Ia
borers, who were still at work on the
street to help them shove their cars along.
As soon as the wheels passed off the
tarred portion Of the rails the interference
ceased and the cars moved ahead. After
several experiences Of this kind the fore
man in charge had some OF the workmen
scrape off the rolls with shOVels, after
which there was no further trouble.

LACKED ONE OF 100 HERE.
But Charleston Reached the Century
Mark in Temperature.

Savannah was one of the hottest places
in the country yesterday. Judged by the
feeling of its citizens it was undoubtedly
the hottest, but the weather man reports
that the mercury reached 100 at Charleston,
while it only recorded 80 at Savannah.
There is very htt,e consolation in this,
however.
The day was the climax of the several
successive very hot days which have made
life uncomfortable for the homes.
The worst feature of the heated spell has
been the lack of the usual refreshing
breezes in the afternoon, the air remaining
close and sultry during almost the entire
evening.
AT s O'Clock last night the thermometer
at the weather bureau registered -. Luck
lily a pleasant breeze sprung up about mid
night and made s.eep possible for weary
souls. This was the reverse of the night
before which was hot and close.
AS the result of the heat many people
sought the suburban resorts In the after
noon and night and last night the street
cars wree crowded with people seeking n
breath Of air 1t Is to he hoped that the
mercury viii not make another effort to
get out OF the bulb today.

are John Bird, Willie Bell, Sam Jones Ar
thur Singletree. Elijah Shaw. Tom Rivers
Isaac Lewis and Charles Garter. They
were uabbed at various times during the
afternoon after the exercise of consider

part OF the officers.
The stolen property was recovered from
the house Of Morris Domonitz, a locksmith
at the corner of Oglethorpe avenue and
Bernard street, whom the detectives say
has acted as fence for the thieves. DO
MONTE IS in New York, fortunately for

BLAZE IN SHOW WINDOW.
Defective Electric Wiring Thought
TO Have Been the Cause.

Defective e.ectria wiring is believed TO
have been the cause Of a blaze In one OF
the large show windows of the Metropol-
itan Clothing Company on Broughton
street about $50 O'Clock yesterday morn
ing. The tapestry decorations of the win
dow suddenly burst into a blaze. An
alarm was sent in from box 10, to which
the depar,m responded. The employees
of the store were already at work with
buckets of water and the fremen com
pleted the work vita hand eXtnguishers.
An examination of the window showed
apparently that the blaze had begun at
one of the bracket joints holding the wire
which led to the arc light in the window.
The electric light people promised to make
an investigation This is merely another
evidence of the need of an electric wire
inspector" said Fire Superintendent Ma
guire, in discussing the incident.

fected by the severe storm on the Gulf

Carrabelle with the Florida capital is not

not more than eighteen miles distant
Notwithstanding, the operator al that
near point has made no report of any Un-

FINISHING up THE WORK.
Increased Facilities for the G. and A.
at f. C. and p. Yards.

The work incident to the enlargement
of the Florida Central and Pennsular
yards for the accommodation of the bust
ness of the Georgia and Alabama has about
been completed. The force of hands is
now engaged in putting the finishing
touches on the new tracks that have been
built 10 afford sufficient facilities for
handling the traffic of both roads.
Some three or four weeks ago the yards
of the Georgia and Alabama were trans
ferred from their old location nearer the
city to that of the Florida Central and
Peninsular, which offered better advan-
tages for enlargement and additional fac
ilities. Since that time the business of
both roads has been transacted at the
Florida Central and Peninsular yards, and
now that the facilities are increased,
there will be great satisfaction found in
working the freight business and hand
ling the cars.

IN another column we publish a

IN another column we publish a letter from A. B. Ellis, a promi- nent citizen of Glenora, relative to J. A Arment, Deputy collect or at Wrangel. This is but one of the many letters which we have received commenting THE JOUR- NAL for it's fearless attack on such officials as TuStin and Ar ment. The fact that this paper has refrained of late from pub fishing further facts about these law breakers must not be taken as an indication that these Otfic- ialS have vindicated themselves nor even ceased their nefariOuS practices. Such is not the case; on the contrary, we simply give them an opportunity to turn over a new leaf, and act within the law. This opportunity they have failed to grasp, and it is now the duty of the law abiding citizons of Wrangel to have the matter brought before the grand jury with a view of securing an indictment on a criminal charge. It is however altogether proba- ble that the authorities in Wash ington City will have acted in the matter before the grand jury cOnNeneS.
