a complaint book, and anyone having
any complaint to make Of any neglect on
the part of any Of the officials, or asking

may belong. that is. provided the name
OF the person making the complaint is
signed in the book. Or il may be made
ia writing, and the Clerk will enter it in
the book, but no communication that is
not signed is ever read and is placed in
the waste basket. The City Commits
sioner, Chief OF Police and the Health
Officer are required to report each day
as to the work done in his department
for the past forty eight hours, and they
are required each day to look at the
entries made in the complaint book.

OBJECTED TO HARBoR FEE.
MIR. Howard Thought the Northtown
ShouEd Not Have to Pay 1t.


should Not Have to Pay II.
The Northwestern Steamship Com
pany was charged SIS as harbor fee
for the steamship INorthtown, the first
of its fleet to visit this port. This is
the fee that is charged a transient
word has it.
Mr.. G. w. Howard, agent for the
company at Savannah, thought. the
charge unfair. as his company has es-
tablished a regular line of steamships
to ply between this city and New York.
He accordingly protested to Alderman
Dixon. chairman of the Finance Com
mittee of Council.
Alderman Dixon told Mr.. Howard
that he would look into the matter.
He advised the agent to pay the fee
as charged by the harbormaster, who
was but doing his duty, and that the
amount paid, less that charged on each
vessel of a regularly established line,
would be refunded.
Mr.. Howard contends that his com
pany has the same rights as the Ocean
Steamship Company or the Merchants
and Miners Transportation Company.
The vessels of those companies do not
have to pay transient fees, but those
charged for regular trips. Each YES
sci has to pay $3.50, and Mr.. Howard
thinks those of his company are enti-
tied to the port privileges for the same
amount.
Four vessels. the Northtown, which
sails to-day for New York with car
go of lumber. the Northwestern, the
Northman and the Northeastern, are
to be upon the line.

FOR THE THROUGH TRAINS.
Union Station Will BE Ready for
RailrOads' Ust on Jan. is.

The Savannah Union Station will
probably be ready for the use of the
railroads that have combined for its
erection by Jan. Is, when the vestibuled
trains between New York and Florida
will be put on. Mr.. Charles Mckenzie,
of j. H. Mckenzie & Son, the con-
tractors putting UP the building, said
yesterday that he thought he could
safely say that the work will have pro-
crossed sufficiently by that time to adj
NIT of the use of the station by the
railroads
'The work has been impeded," said
Mr.. Mckenzie, because of the difficult
ty in getting material. The steel need
ed in the construction has come slow
ly. We now have all save that needed
for one section. ! have received advices
that the early arrival of this may be
looked for, however, and everything rs
now in shape to admit of operations
proceeding with a rush.
Messrs. Oliver & Co., who secured the
contract to build the approaches to the
station, will probably have their work
complete by Jan. l, finishing within the
contract time. Their forces are now
busy at the Ogeechee road, where a
vast amount of grading and construc-
ton work was needed for the elevation
of the dirt road to enable the railway
to pass beneath it.

REACHED THAT DECISION AT

Also Discussed the Erection of a

Renovation of Hall and Work ON
Transcripts to BE Begun at Once.
Rev. Father Aloysius returned yes
terday from Belmont, N. c., where he
was summoned several days ago by Rt.
Rev. Leo Haid, Bishop of North Caro-
lima, for the purpose of attending n
chapter at st. Mary's College, Bel
mont
A chapter is when the fathers of a
religious organization meet with their
superior for the purpose of discussing
or transacting some very important
matter. The object of the chapter held
wednesday, was to discuss the erection
of a new Sacred Heart Church in Sa-
vannah, and also the founding of a
Benedictine day college in Savannah.
1t was decided, said Father Aloysius,
that for the present the new church
will not be built, but that the present
one will be enlarged by the addition of
transepts on each side of the sane
tuary. These when completed will have
a seating capacity of one hundred and
fifty.
The chapter, he continued, was
unanimous in it's decision to establish
the college, which will be opened no
later than next September. For the
time being it will be conducted in the
Sacred Heart School Hall, which will
be thoroughly renovated and other
wise put in condition for that purpose
1t is the hope of Bishop Haid to send
four priests from Belmont as professors
in the college. They will be in no wise
connected with the Parish of the Sa-
cred Heart, though they will live with
Father Aloysius in the pastorate of the
Sacred Heart Church and will, it is ex-
pected, assist in the usual services of
the church.
The renovation of the school hall and
the work on the additions to the
church, will. Father Aloysius says. be
begun at once

HAD NO EVIDENCE.
Fritz HOfiing Had no Trouble In
Securing His Liberty.

Fritz A. w. Holding, arrested on a
charge of burglary on "a warrant
sworn out by julius Rosenthal, before
Magistrate 1. r. Nathans, was given
preliminary hearing yesterday after
noon. On the showing of the prose-
outing witness himself there was no
evidence upon which to base the
charge and the warrant was dismissed
and Hotiing was given his liberty.
The allegations had been that he
broke and entered the saloon of Cad
Bryan. on Congress street, between 2
and 5 o'clock on Thanksgiving morn
ing. and lifted 500 from the till. When
the case was heard Rosenthal stated to
the magistrate that he had no evil
dence against the defendant and Mag
istrate Nathans thereupon dismissed
the case. There was nothing upon
which the defendant could be held and
his attorney, Mr.. r. A. F'alligant, did
not introduce any witnesses.
Hofling protested from the first that
he had not been near Bryans bar at
the time of the alleged robbery, and
that he had no fear of the outcome OF
the preliminary examination. The
young bartender's wife was quite posi-
tive that he had retired early, and
could not have been out of his bed with
out her knowing it. Ho1ing says that
he intends to get satisfaction for the
inconvenience and expense to which he
has been put. Hofling says that he will
remain in the city with his wife, and
will secure employment.
