SEEKING INCORPORATION.
Company VIII Deal in Timber Lands
and other Properties.

A petition for the incorporation Of the
Sessions Land Company was filed yes
terday in the Superior Court. The incor-
poration of the proposed company will add
new capital and a new interest to the bus
mess of Savannah.
The incorporators named are Messrs. w.
c. Powell, w. w. Beach, Alexander SEES
SONS, s. +. Billiard, D. s. Sinclair, John
H. Powell, Robert B. Powell, c. w. Deem
and John Mclean. Most of these are iden-
titled in one way or another with the
Southern Naval Stores Company, and it
is probable that the Seasons Land Com
pany will have a close community of in
terest with that corporation.
The principal office and place of business
of the new company is to be located in
Savannah. 1t asks the privilege of pur-
chasing, holding and disposing of timber
and other lands and dealing generally in
realty of this character, and this seems
to be the principal business in which the
company viii engage. 1t desires, however,
the right to manufacture naval stores,
lumber and similar products, to mine for
phosphate and olher minerals to carry
on agricultural andb horticultural opera
tons, to own and operate railroads, and
the necessary rolling stock and other APP
purtenances, and to carry on the business
of a common carrier of freight and pas
sengers.
The capital stock of the company, actu-
ally paid in before engaging in business.
is to be $4,000, but the privilege is asked
of increasing this to $500,O00 and decreas-
ing it to $4,000 al any time within the
period of Incorporation. in the discretion
of the company.

Who viii Testify.

B. Schwartz, the young white man who
has been in custody since Saturday, plead
led not guilty before Recorder Myrick in
Police Court yesterday morning and the
case against him was continued at the re-
quest of Capt Edward Daniels, the com
plainant. The prisoner is now charged
with the larceny of a gold watch and
chain in August 1898, and was crested
by Detective Stark when the case en-
tered against him by the Greek fruit
dealer was dismissed.
1t is charged that the tmepiece was
taken from Capt. Daniels room in the
Screven House. just after Schwartz rs-
turned to Savannah. after serving in the
United States cavalry The prosecutor
says that he has a witness who saw
Schwarb with the watch, although the
prisoner positively denies all knowledge
Of the larceny. The police endeavored 70
locate the alleged robber at the time the
crime was committed, but were unsuccess-
full. kilograms asking for his arrest were
sent to several places where he was sup
posed to be and not until he was arrest
ed Saturday on complaint of the Greek
did Capt Daniels know of his return to
the city. When he saw the account of
Schwarb's arrest in the Morning News
Capt. Daniels called at headquarters and
had Detective Stark detain the man.

KNOCKED HOLE IN FACE.
Tapped With "a Hammer a Foundry
man Assaulted Wrong Man.

" nAttAhs
Marcus Butler, negro 10 years old
and employed in Kehoe's Iron Foundry,
became angry yesterday afternoon be-
cause a fellow workman tapped him
playfully in the back with hammer,
and for some reason thinking Stepny
Johnson, also colored, the individual he
hurled a heavy iron nut at him. John
son was struck in the right side of the
face and was knocked down. At first
it was believed that the foundryman had
been seriously injured, and Police Sur
geon Osborne was summoned to attend
him. The physician found Johnson suf-
fering from a ragged hole in the right
cheek aend a lacerated confusion on the
right jaw. The mans wounds were dres-
sed at police headquarters after which
he was sent to his home in the ambu-
lance.
Butler made no effort to escape and
was placed under arrest and sent to the
police station, by Patrolman Mccarthy
He is held on a charge of assault and
battery.
According to the statements made by
the men employed in the foundry john
son had nothing at all to do with the
hammer pleasantly, and the assault upon
him was without the slightest provoca-
ton. Butler will be given preliminary
examination by Recorder Myrick in Po-
lice Court this morning.

FOUGHT ON TROLLEY CAR.
Conductor and Intoxicated Passen'
ger Passed Blows.

ger PaSseu bIOWss
Conductor B. f. Brant of the Abercorn
and Whitaker belt of the Savannah,
Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope Railway
Company had rather lively experience
at Fortieth and Abercorn streets about
o'clock last night with a white. man
named Owens, who was under the in
fuence of liquor. Owens was passen-
ger on Brants car and persisted in the
use of profanity in the presence of the
lady passengers. Brant expostulated
with him without inducing him to remain
quiet and the two got into a fight. Owens,
it is said struck the trolley man first
and then Brant started in to put his I'M
ruly passenger out of business. Another
passenger on the car went to the conduc-
tors assistance and Owens got the worst
of the encounter. He decided to get off
the car, although he remained in the
neighborhood for some little time. He
declared that he would have satisfaction
and with many oaths remarked that he
would go home and get his rifle and kill
the conductor on sight. The matter was
not reported at police headquarters, but
the street railway officials stated their
intention of placing the man on the infor-
nation docket.

BOY MAY DIE FROM BULLET.
Albert Green Shot in Yamacraw by n
COMPANION.

Albert Green. a colored lad living on
Bay street. between Lumber and Farm,
was taken to the Georgia Infirmary yes
terday morning in the police ambulance,
with pistol wound in the groin.
Green was shot at his home last week,
and when his condition became critical
he was removed to the hospital. The
shooting was not reported at police head
quarters, and when the ambulance driver
reported the matter to the desk sergeant
Detective Murphy was assigned to inves-
tigate the case. The officer learned thar
the shot was fired by Freddy Green, a
negro boy living at No. ST. Indian street,
and endeavored to locate that individual
The younger Green, who is not related
to the wounded boy. was located last
night in Yamacraw, and was sent to the
police station on a charge of assault with
intent to murder He gave his age as
Is years to the turnkey, and stated that
the shooting was an accident.
The youthful prisoner said that he was
in AlbertS room, watching him clean
revolver, when another boy, to whom he
had sold the pistol day or two before
came in and reported that the weapon
would not shoot Freddy says that the
boy told him that the weapon was not
loaded and that he took it for the pur-
pose Of showing the purchaser that it
was in perfect order, and with the proper
ammunition would shoot. The boy says
that he had no idea that the revolver was
loaded and pulled the trigger to show the
third boy that the hammer would strike
properly report followed, and with a
scream, the older Green fell to the floor
saying that he had been shot. Fred says
that Re did not run away and denies that
he renamed in hiding until picked up by
Detective Murphy. He says that he was
on intimate terms with Albert and had
no intention of inflicting a wound that
will probably cause his death.
The wounded boy is said to have told
Patrolmdn Collins. just before he was
sent to the intirmary that the shooting
had be IN done Intentionally. Albert, how
ever, told the night nurse at the hospi-
tai that the shooting was an accident
and that Fred had not intended to hurt
him. His condition at a late hour was
reported as serious. with only a slight
chance for his recovery. Fred Green Will
be given preliminary hearing by Re-
corder Myrick in Police Court this morn
ing, and ii his story is true, will be re-

faning circumstances as we'll as
in falling health and for some
time before his death the contrast
presented by the weak and helpless in
valid he had become to the strong, robust
and vigorous man he had been a few
years ago was a sad one. He signed his
claim for pension from the state only a
few days before he breathed his last and
then was so weak that he could scarcely
hold the pen.
