recorder Did Not Agree with Capt.
Haddon as to His Guilt.

recorder cartridge heard in the Police
Court yesterday morning the case of as
sault with intent to murder that had been
against John Sanders. as a result of his
EFFORTS to serve a subpoena in admiralty
upon Capt. P. H. Haddon of The steamer
Santee. The captain and the negro be-
came involved in a difficulty, and the
latter cut Capt. Haddon with a knife.
The evidence disclosed that after The
service of the subpoena Capt Haddon
mad started for Sanders with piece of
scantling and had struck at him once.
sanders lodging the blow Before an
other blow could be struck the negro had
drawn his knife and gashed his antago-
INST from his neck TO the middle of his
breast. The parties were then separated
Capt. Haddon stated in the Police Court
that Sanders had been impudent and
cursed him before he attempted to strike
him. and this the negro denied. The Re
corder evidently thought that Sanders
was Justified i'm pursuing the course he
old, and discharged him. The defendant
was represented at the hearing by Mr.. NJ
A. Connally.
John Williams, the horse thief that made
away with a trap belonging to Mr.. J. L.
Butter, who was arrested in Charleston
was remanded TO the CITY Court for simple
larceny, an indulgence which he had no
right to expect, and for which evidently
he had no liking. He told Detective Clarity
that he had rather be sent to the penl-
tentiary than to the chain-gang, and had
he been turned over to the Superior Court
for horse stealing, as might have been
done, he would doubtless have had his
wish.
James Argos arrested On tte uvorropt of
the Atlanta authorities for seHing mort
gagged property, was sent back to the city
in which the crime is alesed TO have been
committed under the charge of Detective
Shea. The effort to compromise the case
that it was said would be made evidently
fell through, probably because there was
no representative of the complaining wit
ness in Savannah with whom a compro-
mise could be negotiated

rendered, For the Seventh Street League
II was shown that Mrs. r. L. Weed. who
mas had charge of the help and charity
branch of the work, has left the city. IL
was stated. however, that something has
been done by the league for the relief and
assistance of the poor
Mr Christian reported that less than
usual was done during the past two
months in literary and social way For
Trinity he reported no eeing in that
department of the work for Nav. and
that the June meetings was only a partial
success. Nothing in a literary way was
done except to secure ten subscriptions
tor the Epworth Era.
Wesley reported that the literary and
social department united last month with
the charity and help department. and held
a meeting which was a great success So
cially and financially, about $40 having
been contributed for the poor. In Wes-
ley League there are about twelve sub
scribers 10 the Era and Mr. Parks. the
president, is advising The purchase of a
league library.
For Grace, 1t was reported that the lit
erary and social department is combined
with the business of the league, and that
meetings of profit and pleasure are held
monthly For the Seventh Street League
it was reported that not much was done
in the department., as there are branches
of church work that take up the atten-
ton of The young members. 1t was re-
ported that there Is junior league at
Trinity and one at Grace.
On the conclusion of the presidents re-
port he called on Rev. Ed r. Cook, pastor
of Wesley Monumental Church, for an ad-
dress. Mr. Cook talked on Moral Ele-
ments of Our Cannots," showing that the
"cannots" are most frequently will nots"
His talk was very beneficial.
Rev. Bascom Anthony. pastor of
Trinity Church, was called upon to address
the assembly on League Work" He
showed pretty clearly along what lines the
efforts of the young people who make up
the leagues should be directed.
1t has been decided that no invitation
should be extended the state conference of
Epworth Leagues to meet at Savannah
The matter was discussed at great length
some time ago, but too great objections
were encountered and ii was agreed to
await some more suspicious time for
bringing the leaguers to this city.

AGAINST SINGLE ROOFS.
Supt. Mcguire Is Having Them Re-
moved for Other MateriaI.

Supt. Mcguire Is Having Them Re-
moved for Other MateriaI.
Superintendent Mcguire of the fire de-
partment is enforcing the ordinance
against the building or existence of shingle
roofs in the corporate limits. The au-
thontes are fully aware of the danger
from this source, but like the ordinance
against encroachments, it seems that it
has been neglected so long the people have
forgot there is such a law.
Desiring TO know that he was fully en-
powered to docket persons who have built
single roofs on their houses. Superintend-
ent Mcguire referred the ordinance TO
Mayor Myers, with the request that he
be instructed as to his duty in the matter.
The Mayor replied by directing the super
intendent to docket all persons found vic
lating the letter of the law. This was the
signal for the start, and since then Super
intendent Mcguire and his men have been
busy.
Robert Jones' who lives on Bolton street
at the Collinsville end, was the first to go
on the docket He was fined SO by the
Recorder and directed to replace the shin
gle roof with a tin roof. Neither shingles
nor paper is allowed on houses, the inten-
ton of Council being to have only non
combustible material, such as tin and
slate.
1T is not my intention to work hard
ship upon people by pacing them on the
docket without proper notice" said Super
intendent Mcguire. II have sent out about
100 notices during the past few days and
am now waiting to see what the result will
be. II the property owners compel me
10 do my duty by putting them on the
docket, shall have to do IT, If any in
clination is shown to comply with the
law, however, l shall not take any action"

But Its Development May Not Have a
Very Far Reaching Effect.

The recent fertilizer combine has made
large purchases of lands near Charleston
for the purpose of conducting operations
there on larger scale. The Bradley fer
tilizer people are stated to be at the bot
tom of the DEAL which includes the pur-
chase of 5000 acres of phosphate land for
$4,000
A well-known fertilizer man of Savan-
nah said yesterday that whatever opera
tons are undertaken by Northern people
at Charleston will not have any material
effect on Savannah manufactures. The
gentleman had been over to Charleston,
and says he was told by the receiver Of
the property in question that such deal
would be made. Inquiries were made as
to the company's intended operations, And
while it was not d privileged converse
ton, the gentleman went far enough to
say he did not think any competitive con-
ditions would arise as consequence.
