ARRESTED wAYCROSs CLERK.
Claimed That He Was Guilty OF
'Breach of Promise"

w. A. Dixon, a young white man,
pot, by Detective Murphy. upon the ar
rival of the train from Waycross yes
terday morning. Dixon, who is en-
ployed in Waycross, was held at the
station house until 10 O'Clock last
night, when he was turned over to
Sheriff McClelland of Ware county.
The detention of Dixon by the local
authorities, and his return to Way
cross at an early hour this morning,
on an alleged warrant for breach of
promise" make a rather peculiar COM
bination of facts. There is no criminal
offense on the statute books known as
breach of promise"
Supt. Reilly says that he received
telegram to arrest and hold the young
man, and he did so. When Sheriff Nc
ICELAND arrived he announced the un-
usual charge. The sheriff stated to the
superintendent that the arrest had
been made at the solicitation of the
young woman's father. She was fully
aware that Dixon was coming to Sa-
Vannah to spend Sunday with his pa
rents, and in fact, told him good-by
at the train.
She told the sheriff that Dixon told
ner tnat ne would return last nlBnl,
and the young man says that such was
his intention, and that he would have
kept his promise but for the fact that
he was arrested. He told Supt. Reilly
that he is engaged to the young wo-
man, and that he has no desire or in
tention, of leaving her. He was at a
loss to account for her fathers strange
act, and did not remember having
given him any ground for suspecting
that he would not do all that he had
promised to.
Dixon is a clerk in Waycross, but
his family lives in this city. AS soon
as it became known that he was de-
tanned at police headquarters he was
visited by his father and mother and
sisters. He was released from his cell,
and was permit ed to talk with his rel
atives. The meeting between mother
and son in the prison was effecting.
Mrs. Dixon remained with her boy un-
til the arrival of the Waycross officer,
and the father of the young man also
remained around headquarters. Sher-
if McClelland took young Dixon to his
mothers residence for supper, and they
remained there until just before the de-
parture of the train.

PATROIMAN USED HIS CLUB.
Negro ExcursiOnist Managed to Get
Whiskey and Fought.


c. w. Williams, a negro excursionist
raised trough house" on a West
Broad street trolley car yesterday af-
ternoon, and wound up in the police
station, with three charges of disor-
derby conduct against him. Williams
had accumulated good sized jag, and
turned loose any amount of profane
and obscene language in the presence
of ladies.
When called down by the conductor
the negro threatened to do some shoot
ing, but it developed later that he was
unarmed. He was turned over to Pa
trolman NJ. B. Fleming at West Broad
and Liberty streets, and put up a
vicious fight with the officer. Fleming
was forced to use his club, and the ne
gro landed in the patrol wagon with
several cuts on the head. and in a
more amiable frame of mind. He man
aged to get in several blows on the
officer. but did not leave his mark.
While 1t was generally believed that
the saloons were all cosed there must
have been something doing" some
where in the city during the day. The
excursnnists appeared to find no
trouble in getting what they wanted to
drink, and more than one was sent to
the police station on charge of drunk
enness. The down town bars were
closed, and the street corners were lin
ed with thirsty individuals who dis
Cussed the Good Government League
from every point of view. While they
were talking over the situation the
strangers appeared to be finding no
difficulty in getting what they wanted.

TRIO FOR PENITENTIARY.
Guilty Bennett Was in Party and
Didn't Like IL.

Joe Spann, William Smith. alias Joe
Simmons, and Guilty Bennett, have
been taken from the Jail to the state
camp at Fargo, where they will begin
terms in the penitentiary. Bennett is
the white sneak thief of which so
much has been written, and he was not
at all peased with the idea of going to
the penitentiary. Guilty has never at
tempted anything harder than a chain
gang sentence, and has never COM
pleted one. He would invariably be-
come displeased with his treatment and
found no great difficulty in making his
escape
Guilty pleaded guilty to two charges
OF burglary, and was sentenced by
Judge Falligant to two years in the
penitentiary. He has also several
months on the chaingang hanging over
his head, but It is doubtful II they
will ever be served. While the peni-
Tertiary officials have been notified of
Cutty's reputation. IL is doubtful II
they will be able TO hold him for the

CARLINE OFFICIALS HERE.
Vice Presidents Fall and Parsons
VIII Investigate Troubles.

First Vice President j. II. Fall and
Second Vice President Henry Parsons
of the Savannah, Thunderbolt and Isle
of Hope Railway Company are in the
city, and held a brief conference with
Director ]. S. Collins yesterday. The
differences between the motormen and
conductors and the management was
discussed, but neither of the gentlemen
would talk of the matter after the
meeting.
1t is claimed from some quarters that
the trouble has been greatly exagger-
ated. and that the situation is by no
means serious. Mr.. FAN and Mr.. Par
sons will meet the Executive Commit
tee of the company to-day and dis
cuss the situation as they have found
1t. 1t Is believed that matters will be
arranged satisfactorily, and that there
will be no trouble.
Mr.. Fail was summoned from Nash
Vile by telegram from the executive
committee and he was urged to come
at once. He had no time yesterday to
investigate the alleged friction, and
was not in "a position to discuss the
subject, when seen by a representative
of the Morning News. 1t may be that
a meeting of the board of directors
will be called for an early date, al
though it Is not believed that this will
be necessary. President George Par
sons is still in the North and is not
expected in Savannah in the near fu
ture.
1t will probably not take the officials
long to discover that something is the
matter with the car line service and
that it needs improving. The dis
charge of the old car men still con-
tinues. Three were dropped yesterday.
But two experienced conductors re-
main on the Abercorn and Barnard
belt. The others are all new men. The
motormen are green, too, and one con-
ductor admitted that he couldn't get
his motorman to stop at the proper
crossings.

STOLE SIXTY DOLLARS.
COIored Domestic Charged with
Grand Larceny.

Floro Law. a colored domestic. Is
held at the police station by Detective
Murphy on charge of grand larceny,
from Mrs. H. Auerbach of No .41O Park
avenue, west. The woman is accused
of stealing $50 from wardrobe, while
the members of the household were out,
Friday afternoon.
Three $50 bills were taken by the
thief, and the matter was promptly re-
ported at police headquarter. Detec-
tive Murphy made an investigation,
and learned that the woman was the
only one in the house at the time. and
that nothing else was taken. She
knew where the key to the wardrobe
was kept and knew, too. the officer
says. that there was money in the
place.
A pocketbook containing "a in change
was undisturbed, and the detective
says that the woman probably left this
because of the danger of the silver be-
ing found on her person. She stoutly
denies the theft, and will be given a
preliminary examination by Recorder
Myrick in Police Court this morning.
Nothing was found on her when
searched at the police station.
