Five Men Injured at the Old Water
Tower Yesterday.

Five men were injured yesterday, short
ly after noon by the collapse of the scat
fold inside of the old water tower in
Franklin Square.
OF the men who went down with the
scaffold, John Low, cOlored, was the worst
hurt, receiving a fractured thigh, while
Mr. w. H. Mann, white, the foreman in
charge OF the work was badly bruised.
and also got quite q bad cut over the
right eye. The other men, Miles Wnaley,
Robert Gibson. and James Smith, all CCl-
ored, were badly bruised, but received
no dangerous hurts.
The scaffold, upon which the men were
standing as they priced off the brick
from the wall of the tower, was about
twenty-three feet from the ground and
had been built under the direction OF Mr..
Mann. 1t extended from the wall Inward
to the column II at stands WITHIN the
center of the tower on a very narrow
shoulder of which the joists of the plat
fcrm rested. These supports were not
brared, and the pressure from above
caused them to slip from their position,
with the result that the platform went
down.
At the time of the fall there were Twelve
men at work on it, but some of these be-
Ing warned by the premonitOry freak
ing of the structure, jumped, some in
the small windows of the tower and
others on the outer wall, so that only the
five men who were injured went down
when the crash came.
The injured men were taken from the
debris by the other workmen employed in
demolishing the tower. Low and Mr..
Mann. the worst hurt. were taken across
the street to Shuptrine's drug store and
DR.. George NJ. Norton sent for. The po-
lice ambulance was also rung up and ar
rived in a short time when, with the ex-
ception of Mr.. Mann, the injured men
were taken to their homes. Mr.. Mann
was sent home in a carriage. The work
on the tower is being done by the Stew
art Contracting Company.

ARE RULED FOR CONTEMPT.
Oystcrmen Must Explain Apparent
Violation of Injunction.

The negro oystermen recently arrested
beds of Capt Gus Oemler are having a
hard road to travel. Not only were they
indicted yesterday by the grand jury of
the Superior Court, but an order was pass
ed by Judge Falligant requiring them to
show cause why they should not be at
tached for contempt of court
The order was granted by Judge Falli-
giant on the application of Mesers w W.
Gordon, Jr., and Gignilliat e. Stubs, at
torneys for Capt. Oemler. The petition
filed by counsel sets forth the fact that
in last December Judge Fallgant granted
a temporary injunction. that is still in
force, restraining certain defendants from
gathering oysters from the leased beds in
Shad river and Oyster creek. The de-
cision of Judge Falligant was afterward
affirmed by the Supreme Court of the
state and the judgment of that court
made the judgment of the Superior Court.
Notwithstanding these facts, the petit
ton continues, a number OF the defend
ants in the injunction case. among them
William Jones, Jasper Holmes and others,
have violated the mandate of the court
and-in boats of all sizes and with oyster
tools of all descriptions have gathered
the BIZ alves from the private property
of Capt Oemler. The men named for
prospective punishment for contempt of
court are those arrested by Deputy Sher-
ifs OConnor and Westcott a few DAYS
ago.
The order passed by the court directs
that the defendants show cause before
Judge Falligant, In the Superior Court
room. on the morning of April 7. why
they should not be held in contempt and
punished accordingly

NEW UNIFORMS ARRIVED.
Military Feel That the State Has
Rtlsn Geueroux

The long-eN X 0ected uniforms for the
Georgia state uoops have been received
in Savannah. Every captain. who sent on
requisihon has received his rorty uni
forms for his Command. 1t is thought
that not a singl e commanding officer in
this city failed to make requis1tion in the
proper form. That being tine case, every
command now has an additional forty uni
forms, and will be able to turn out for
psrades or drill with no lack of suits to
worry.
Commanding officers are rather well
pleased with the uniforms They feared
they would be of an inferior quality bur,
on the whole the suits are all that could
be expected. AS they are gifts, it is far
from the captains to be too critical, yet
they would like TO see their commands
properly equipped.
The blouses are lined, though made of
light material. They are or better quality
than those issued by the government to
the volunteers duri ng the' service in the
war with Spain. The tro users are Of a
quality inferior to the cloth in the
blouses, and 10 that of the trousers Of the
old uniforms, but when the stripes have
been added, it is thought the trousers will
look well enough
Stripes for the trousers accompanied
them, though they are yet to be sewn on.
That is because in the United States SER
vice the privates do not wear stripes on
their trousers. Ncn-co nnnissioned Off
GERS chevrons also came, as did light
caps. United States but tons are on the
bouses, and one captain. has said he will
let them remain there until the state
sends Georgia buttons TO replace them
Cap ornaments for the de signat ton of com
pany and regiment viii also have to be
secured elsewhere.
Officers and men of the state service feel
that there has been some appreciation of
the military shown lately. Expressions
are far more loyal than when the troops
were cut off with shilling, and there is
general feeling of sa tsfaction. Two
years ago it was scarce " thought that
the time was so near at hand when uni
forms would be supplied the companies by
the state.
Its gift of uniforms is n OF all the state
is doing this year for the companies The
military bin passed by the last Legisla-
ture provided that $3.50 a year should be
paid each company for arm DRY rent This
money has not yet been received by the
commands. but it will be forthcoming in
due time

TO ESTABLISH A SHOE FACTORY.
Meeting of Business Men Held and
Plans Under Way.

Pians Under Way.
The first meeting of a number of gen
tlemen who have been looking into the
establishment of shoe factory in this
city was held yesterday afternoon at the
office of Messrs. ]. E. Fulton e. Son.
Among those present We're Messrs. c.
f. Fulton. L. II. McLaws, B. H. Levy,
VIM. Kehoe, Charles Marks, e. Okarma,
J II. Estill, and others. Mr.. Okarma, who
has successfully carried on shoe factory
in this city for number of years, ex-
planned what would be necessary to estab-
lish a plant, and others who had exper-
fence in the shoe trade gave interesting
particulars as to the details and profits of
the business.
A committee of Messrs. Fulton, McLaws
and Marks was appointed to prepare lists
and solicit subscriptions. Among the en-
couraging facts presented to the meeting
was an offer of several sites of land near
the city for the proposed factory one of
which was a donation of fourteen acres
From the information presented at the
meeting there appeared no reason why a
shoe factory could not be run successfully
and probably in Savannah.

Amount for Personal Injuries.


The trial of the case of Martin Karchner
against the Southerdn Railway Company
was begun in the United States Circuit
Court on yesterday morning. The plaintiff
sues for $4,000 damages, for personal in
juries alleged to have been received by
him while in the service of the defendant,
and through the gross carelessness and
negligence of the compauys agents ana
employees
In March, 1897, the plaintiff was the en-
gineer of a freight train running between
Brunswick and Lumber City, Ga. He
claims that his train was given the right
of way through the yards at Brunswick
and that reposing confidence in these or
ders and Instructions he was passing
through at good rate of speed. He had
no reason to believe that any obstruction
was in the way.
The first indication he had of danger
was startled exclamation from the fire.

from the cab of the engine. AT the same
time the train rounded curve and direct
ly ahead and but a short distance away
were several fiat cars that had been moved
on the track. He tried to reverse his en-
CINE and jumped for his life. AS he did
so his foot caught in portion of the cab

to go, and his leg broken just above the
ankle.

placed on the stand and repeated the story
of the accident as given above. The intro
duction of evidence for the defense was
but barely begun and will be continued at
to-days session The contentious of the
company are that it was not TO blame and
that the accident to the plaintiff was due
to his own carelessness and disregard Of
both instructions and the commonest care
for his own safety

A Meeting of Council to. Introduce
One This Afternoon

A meeting of Council has been called for
this afternoon at which a compulsory
vaccination ordinance will be introduced
The last meeting being under recess,
Council can be called together at any
time. By introducing the ordinance this
afternoon and having it read, ii can be
read the second time and adopted at the
next regular meeting the following
Wednesday night. Should there be no OBJ
lection the ordinance may be read a sec
ond time and adopted this afternoon
Mayor Myers said yesterday that while
the special act of the Legislature making
vaccination compulsory in Chatham coun-
ty, appears to be sufficient, it was deemed
best to adopt a local ordinance in under
taking to enforce the provisions of the
act. IL this should be deferred until the
regular meeting Wednesday night unani-
nous consent to its passage might not be
obtained and this would compel the ordi-
nance to lie over until the next regular
meeting. BY placing the ordinance on its
first reading this afternoon it will be pos
sible to rass it Wednesday night, April A.
two days in advance Of the date named
by Mayor Myers in his vaccination pro-
clamation for compulsory vaccination to
be put in force

The Indications are now that Mr.. John

liams as member of the Board of Alder

agreed upon Mr. Horrigan, and there
seems to be no objection on the part of

Mayor Myers, when asked about the
matter yesterday, said that it was not I'M
likely that Mr. Horrigan's name would be
proposed for the vacancy, though, of
course, he had no idea what action Coun-
Gil would take in the matter The Mayor
admitted that the election of Mr. Horrl-
gan would be in line with the precedent
already established by the administration
of taking care of those who were candi-
dates on it's ticket but who failed of
election
Capt. Doyle, 1t will be rememb ared came
within a few votes of election. The resig.
nation of Maj. Screven to accept the SUI
perintendency of the police department

by the election OF Capt Doyle A little

organized, and M. Samuel Reynolds, who
was next to Capt. Doyle on the ticket
was made a member of the boaru This
left Mr.. Horrigan the only member of the
ticket who had not obtained official rec

natural that when The opportunity offers,
Mr. Horrigan should not be forgotten. Mr.
Horrigan is a popular young citizen, and
has a number of friends. especially on the
