THE GEoRGIANA SEIZED.
The Vessel To BE LibeIed for Navigat-
ing Without License.


NEW YORK, Oct. 10.-Collector BidwelI
wrote to United States District Attorney
Barnett yesterday requesting him to take
immediate steps to collect the prescribed
$500 penalty from the steamboat Georgiana
for taking out passengers without proper
license. 1t appears, the collectors letter
said, that number of persons who were
on board the vessel had been assaulted and
robbed while the vessel was being navi-
gated in the lower bay. The Georgiana
is documented at Philadelphia, and the
collector suggested to the District Attor-
ney that immediate steps be taken to libel
her.
Collector Bidwell instructed the surveyor
of the port to seize the Georgiana under
section 4463 of the United States Revised
Statutes for carrying an unlicensed officer
This seizure was made this afternoon at
Communipaw. The customs officer on the
vessel detailed to see that the navigation
laws were enforced, particularly as to the
carrying of not more than the proper num-
ber of passengers, was Inspector Penfeld,
of the surveyors staff. This officer has
made verbal report to the effect that he
saw no rioting. He admitted, however,
that he saw gambling on board. Papers
of the vessel were shown to him which he
took to be all right.
Alexander Sterks. one of the captains of
the Georgiana, was arraigned before
United States Commissioner Shields yes
terday, charged with acting as master Of
the steamboats, Colchester and Georgiana
without a masters license. The punish
ment is a fine Of not to exceed $780, Com
missioner Shields held Sterks in $3.50 for
examination on Friday.

under the understanding that no
question will be before it except that
OF Jurisdiction; that decided in the

New Prospect Camp Meeting.

Vancleave, Miss, Got. "a. 1899.
Editor Democrat. Star.
Ii you will allow me a little space
in the columns OF your paper. | will
give you a sketch Of our meeting.
Our caInp. meeting opened at the
time designated. the first sermon he.
ing preached by Rev. c. J. Philips.
Every service was h0nOred by the
presence Of the Holy Spirit. All the
preachers seemed to be endowed with
supernatural power. l have never
seen so grand Il meeting In SO short a
time, as we had at our cam o. meeting,
which closed on the night Of the 22nd.
After the gregations were dismiss
Ell there was a lingering about the
tabernacle, and p%enitents would STAY
at the alter until they were converted.
We had 40 conversions and 8 acces.
siOns to the church.
The reason for no more accessiOns
tn the church than there was is be.
cause nearly everybody belongs to the
church.
The preaching was done by the fol.
towing brethren: Reys. G. j. Philips,
l.. r. Roberts, W. W. Simmons, our
beloved presiding elder, w. II. Lewis.
OF Ocean Springs, Geo. w. Huff. Of
Wilmington circuit and Louis JOr-
dan. They all preach with great
power and their work was honOred Of
God in the salvation OF many souls.
1t Is said that there was the largest
crowd at this camp.meeting than ever
before. Some have estimated the
crowd at about 1000. The behavior
was excellent, the best ever witnessed
mt this camp ground. The people have
again got the cam. meeting spirit"
aroused, and they say they are going
to tear down and build anew and Ell.
large their tents and tabernacle. Some
new tents are going to be built by par.
ties that never before have tented.
This camp ground is a desirable
place for a camp.meeting. 1t has two
spring branches, one on each side OF
the ground, that never goes dry; 50
water Is no object.
hope the canfpground will be built
up, and that the people will take the
proper interest In it that should be
taken, and make 1t a grand success,
which can be very easily done. And
may God put 1t into the hearts of the
people to build up the walls OF Zion.
