to her parents, who were respectable peo-
pie, and had given her good education.
A hoodlum who gave the name of John
Downer had been threatening her if she
attempted to go back home. Downer was
in court The Judge called him up and
denounced him as a parasite and warned

girl was continued till tomorrow.

not be long with the new administration.
Mr.. Dreeson wiz not return 20 his old
place. Mr.. James Mcguire OF the First
district is sla ted to succeed Mr. Cooley.
"Aldy" has had his eye on this job for
a long time and il seems now that his
ambition is about to be gratified.
EX-Fire Chief Mcguire seems very con-
hdent that he viii soon be wearing his old
uniform and riding around the city in the
red buggy which is now used by Fire
Chief Hanly. Just how this is to be &C.
conplished has not been stated, but the
partisans seem 10 accept il as a fact.
Few people are aware that Mr. Charles

Is fire marshal of the city of Savannah.
The charter of the city provides for a fire
marshal but the Office had long fallen INFO
disuse. Ten years ago during the Schwarz
administration. Mr.. RossignOl called the
attention Of Council to The fact that fire
marshal was provided for by the charter.
Council a once recrcated the Office by or
dinance and elected Mr.. Rossignol mar
shall. The duties were nominal and there
was no salary attached. No successor has
ever been elected to Mr. Rossignol and he
is probably still fire marshal. It has been
suggested by some pardsans that the new
Council might elect MIR Mcguire fire mar
shall, fix the salary Of the office, ana IN
vest him with the control of the depart
ment. including the right to appoint and
remove his own subOrdinates. The first
removal would of course be Mr.. Hanly
II is evident that a determined fight Is
to be made for the removal of Chief of
Police McDermott Some Of the Myers
leaders have old scores to settle with the
chief and it is SAID that they are not en-
tirely satisfied with his conduct in the re-
cent campaign. The latest rumor has II
that Capt Thomas Screven VINO receiV-
ed the second highest vote on the Myers
ticket, is to succeed Chief McDermott as
chief of police. No authority was given
for the rumor however, and there may
be nothing in il. Should Chief McDer-
mott be displaced, however, Capt. Screven
would be an exceedingly popular man for
the place.
How the removal of the various officials
whose positions are desired by the victori-
Gus faction, is to be accomplished, has not
been stated. The leaders say, however
that they have considered the matter and
that there will be no difficulty.
The high tension under which a few
city officers are laboriug on account of the
change in administration has proven too
great for Marcus Loweuthal, sanitary in
spector, and to relieve his mind OF the
prospects of decapitation he has closed
his official career. Mr. Lowenthal sent in
his resignation TO Mayor Meldrim yester-
Jay. and has the distinction of being the
first martyr.
With the other officials there IS a good
deal of discussion as to what the new ad-
ministrauon viii do in the way of making
changes. Some have made up their minds
10 60, while others find comfort in the
fact the new Council is conservative. and
will not probably make many changes
among city Office-holders.

Three transports arrived yesterday, the
Minnewaska Michigan and Manitoba. The
AIinnewaska came up to the city on the
morning tide and Is at the Centrals dock
for transports. The Michigan and the
Manitoba waited below and will be at
their docks here this morning. BY
Thursday night all three of them will
probably have sailed for Cuba. Each Is
to carry cavalry, of which there is an
especial need in the island at present, it
having been found that the mounted men
are decidedly more valuable than infantry
for patroling and preserving peace in the
country districts.
The Minnewaska is to take off six troops
of the Eighth Cavalry now at Huntsville
These troops will arrive in Savannah
Tuesday afternoon and win go immediately
aboard the transport, which is expected
20 get off the next morning. The work Of
coaling the vessel will begin this morning
The Minnewaska goes from here to Neu-
vitas, and returns from that place to
Tampa to take horses and fresh meats to
Santiago.
The Manitoba is to take six troops Of

come back for the remainder of the regi-
ment This transport is expected to get
off Wednesday night or Thursday morn
ing. From Cuba the Manitoba is to go to
Porto Rico 60 bring back to the United
States regiment to be mustered out, eth
er the Forty-seventh New York or the
Sixth United States Volunteers.
The Michigan will take the five troops
Of the Fifth Cavalry, now in camp at
Savannah, to San Juan and Ponce in
Porto Rico All of the volunteer regi-
ments of infantry are either away from
that island or about to be removed and
these cavalrymen will be of immediate
service in patrolling. The Michigan Will
get away on either Tuesday or Wednes-
day.
The Chester, which left harbOr yester-
day for Cienfuegos, will go from that port
10 Porto Rico and will bring away one
of the regiments referred to above.
After these cavalry regiments are dis
posed of there is but one body OF troops
under orders for shipment. through Sa-
vannah, the Second United States In
fantry. There is no doubt, though, that
there will be one or more other regiments
to follow through this port.
In a few days the army live stock that
is to be put in corral here will begin 70

night there will be over 700 men employed
az the bag corral to be established near

neighborhood of $4,000 a month, and the

large proportions.
