Savannah Electric COMPANY win
Begin to Do Business in Few Days.
The Savannah Electric Company win
be formally organized early during the
coming week. The prescribed period of
advertising has elapsed, and Mr. j.
Randolph Anderson of counsel for the
promoters of the enterprise, left for
Atlanta last night to receive the char
ter from the Secretary of State.
The company is to have $500, 900 Of
capital stock and will issue in addition
$2,500,000 of per cent. fifty-year gold
bonds. The bonds will begin to bear
interest on Jan. 1 and the organization
meeting of the new company will prob
ably be held before that date. On
Jan. the property and franchises of
the Edison Electric Illuminating Com
pany will be surrendered to it's sue
cessor in business and soon thereafter
the new company will take over the
franchises and property of the Savan-
nah, Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope
Railway.
The charter of the Edison Electric
Illuminating Company will be surren-
dered to the new company, but it is
probable that the trolley company's
charter will be retained for a time at
least. There are some legal considera-
tions that seem to make this course
advisable.

NAVAL MILITIA SORE
ARE DISSATISFIED WITH THE AC-
TION OF COUNCIL.
WANTED A SHARE OF MONEY.
SURPRISED BY STATEMENT THAT
THEY HAD ONLY SIXTEEN MEN.

Member of the Division Called on
| Acting Mayor Dixon, Who Told
Him That He Would Have to PEI
titiOn Council if He Wanted n
Protest Considered-such Petit
tion viii BE Presented-Lieut. A.
C. Carter Says There Are Forty
Ave Enlisted Men I'm the Division.
He Thinks the Board of Aldermen
Should Have Sought Facts, Instead
of Accepting Some Casual state
ment.
The Naval Militia were greatly sur
prised on learning from the Morning
News yesterday morning that the City
Council had excluded them from
| share in the city's appropriation for
the white military. They had no idea
that such action would be taken.
Boatswain's Mate ]. T. Carter, the
chief petty officer of the Third Division
of the Naval Militia. called on Acting
Mayor Dixon at the City Exchange to
expostulate against the exclusion of the
Naval Militia. The Mayor said that he
had no jurisdiction in the matter, as it
was an action of Council, but that the
Naval Militia might file any petition
they might see fit and that it would be
duly considered by Council. This the
boatsmain's mate said would be done.
Lieut.. A. C. Carter, who is in COM
mand of the division, was seen. He
| said that he had been astounded to
read that the Naval Militia had not
been allowed to participate in the APP
preparation. His establishment grew as
he saw that an impression had pre-
vailed among the members of the
board that there were no more than
sixteen enlisted men in the division.
Il think" said Lieut.. Carter. that
the aldermen might have informed
| themselves correctly upon that point,
rather than accept some hearsay evil
dence as the truth 1t is not right that
they should exclude our division and
make us suffer for the simple reason
that they considered we were in so
disorganized and defunct a state as
not TO be able to muster more than
sixteen men. We would have been dis
banded by order Of the Governor long
since could we not make a better
showing than that. The inspector gen
eral made an inspection of the divi-
sion, and it passed creditably. Had we
not had at least thirty-two enlisted
men at the time of the inspection we
would have been ordered disbanded.
THE fact is that we have 45 enlisted
men. 1t might be said that we have
fifty, for there are several more who
are intending to join the division. The
showing made by the Division on
| Thanksgiving Day. when the sham
battle was had. should, in my opinion,
have convinced any who saw it that
we had more than Is men,"
A member of the board was asked
if he thought that it's action would be
so altered as to include the Naval Mil
itia. He was inclined to the view that
it would not be, for the reason, he
said. that it would be necessary to
make a larger appropriation or to cut
down some of the other commands
| portions which would be followed by
a protest.

MURDERER BROOKS WAITING.
Not Yet Baptized. but VIII he Before
He Is Hanged.

There is a lack of harmony between
the jail officials and Rev. Prince Black.
who officiates at hangings in Chatham
county. Prince had announced his in
tention of appearing at the Jail yester-
day for the purpose Of baptizing Henry
Brooks, the murderer of Patrolman
Harry B. Fender, but failed to put in
an appearance.
The preacher had probably heard Of
the feelings expressed by the officers
at the Jail. and kept away. In his
stead Rev. Jackson, until quite recently
Blacks associate, appeared and admin
istered to Brooks. There was no bap-
tism, but a singing service was held
for the special benefit of the murderer
Prince and Jackson had some misun
derstanding. and Jackson is now work.
ing on his own hook Prince COM
planned some time ago that the graft
in his line was getting small. and he
asked for public subscription. Since
then he has not taken the usual deep
interest in unfortunates doomed to
meet their fate on the gallows.
When Prince went to baptize Brooks
he was accompanied by a half dozen
or more elders, and was not permitted
to enter with the crowd. He then an
nounced that the water offered him
was too cold, and that he would post
pone the service. All arrangements had
been made at that time for the bap-
tism, and the Jail officials were not
pleased when Black became angry and
passed the job up temporarily. They
determined that he should not conduct
the service if anybody else could be OBJ
tanned, and the matter was laid before
the prisoners mother.
The old woman secured the services
of Rev. J. w. Carr, her pastor, and he
will baptize Brooks very shortly In
the meantime the condemned man is
in excellent health and does not APP
pear to worry over his fate. He said
yesterday that because of Rev. Blacks
peculiar notions his mother had OBJ
tanned the services of another minister
who will baptize him very shortly.
Brooks says he is prepared and ready
to die. Evangelist Bush of Charlotte
held services in the Jail and conversed
with and offered comfort to Brooks,
who will hang next month, unless the
Pardon Commission interferes.

Plant System Clerk Knocked Down
Near Band stand I'm Park Extension.
James E. Connolly OF No. lis Duffy
street, west, and employed in the offices
of the Plant System, was knocked In
the head and robbed in the Park Ex-
tension last night. He was found by
two young men who were going home
and was taken to his residence.
The assault was committed near the
band stand on Waldburg street. and
the clerks pockets were turned wrong
side out when the attention of the
young men was attracted. He had
regained consciousness and called on
them to aid him in reaching his home
He stated that he had been struck in
the head, but was unable to say who
had committed the assault. or what
the highwayman had obtained. The
railroad man was only stunned by the
blow and his wound is not dangerous.
1t was stated at police headquarters
that no report of the assault and rob-
berry had been made.
