BURIED HIS PLUMBER.
Negro Burglar, However, Kept the
stolen Gold.

stolen Gold.
Moses Wilson. a coachman for Mr.
d. G. Morrison. was arrested yester-
day morning by Detective Stark and is
held at the police station house on a
charge of burglary. Although Detec-
tives Stark and Murphy recovered a
trunk of clothing and $25 in gold,
which had been stolen, Wilson denies
the charge. and says that his, brother
gave him the money He cannot ac-
count for the fact that the officers
found the trunk buried in hay in a
room over the stables, in which the ne
gro has been employed.
The complainant is Scipio Goings,
employed as a coachman by Mai II. p.
Smart, at No 701 Abercorn street. The
men had been chums, and this caused
the officers to first suspect the guilt of
Wilson Goings lives in the rear of
Maj. Smart's residence, and his room
was burglarized Sunday. The thief
entered the place with a key and be-
sides the trunk of clothing got $55 in
cash. The money was kept in the
trunk by Goings, and $50 was in gold
and the balance in greenbacks. The
fact that five pieces of gold were found
on Wilson when he was arrested, and
that the missing trunk was found in
his place are considered sufficiently
strong circumstances by the officers to
warrant them in presenting the prison
er in Police Court this morning

LEE COUNTY HAS OIL TOO.

A Leesburg correspondent of the Ma
con Telegraph says: The reported dis
covery of oil at Albany has started
surnises here to a large extent. 1t has
been known for years that wells in the
county have had to be abandoned be-
cause of this same greasy slime, and
at least a dozen places show this sur
face indication. Nothing was thought
of it and nothing done about 1t, how
ever. Now, the question arises. Lee
county is exactly the same formation
as Dougherty The artesian strata Is
not so deep, and if Albany has oil Lee
is compelled to have it. The writer
can find the scum floating on the sur
face in several places. Citizens are
skeptical about the value of the re-
puted discovery at Albany but the
same thing that is in Albany water is
in some wells around Leesburg, what
ever it is

forty years since a representative OF
this county was elevated to the
speakership of the House.

Central of Georgia.

From the Wall Street Journal.
The Cetnral of Georgia paid 5 per
cent. on its first incomes this year for
the first time since the company was
reorganized. We have had a good
many queries as to the bonds of this
company. and it is probable that a
statement of its present position will
interest a good many people
On July /, 1901, the company had
capital outstanding as follows:
Miles owned ......... 1886
Funded debt outstanding .$33, SAG. 900
Annual interest charge
(henceforth) .............. 1853 900
Annual rentals G901 basis).. 347, 9O2
Annual taxes (1901 basis ..... 2l3,41O
Total fixed charges ......... 2225. PIP
First income bonds ........ 1000 900
Second income bonds .... 1000. 900
Third income bonds ......... 100000
Total income bonds .......... Is, 900. 900
Annual interest on lists,
5 per cent. ............... 200, 900
Amount of net income. therefore. re-
quired to pay per cent on the first
income bonds is S2,425.212 less other
incomes" which may be taken at $780,
600 annually This makes the net fixed
charge against operations, including
FIRST income interest in round figures
S2,225,000 per amman.
AS the company is now operating
some 1874 miles of road this charge
amounts to about $1,000 per mile on
road in operation. The question Is
how much gross earnings per mile are
required 10 meet this charge Of $1,000.
The company probably needs about
$3.50 per mile for strict maintenance OF
way. For maintenance OF equipment.
2l2 locomotives 2lb passenger cars and
5.577 freight cars, IL should presumably
need about 500 900 annually or say 800

FROM WATER FRONT
TWO DAYS, EXPORTS OF COTToS
EXCEED $1,63S,799.
RUSH OF STEAMERS TO SAIL.
THREE PASS DOWN EARLY LAST
NIGHT OUTWARD BOUND.

The Rush of Steamers Accompanied
by IA Corresponding Hurry of Sail
ing Vessels to Get out-Harbor
Will BE Cleared TO-day-Capt.
Lewis virgins Critically III
Savannah's exports of cotton for two
days aggregate 1858 bales, valued on
the manifests at the Custom House at
81. 63S, 799. 1t is doubtful if any two
previous days exceed this record. The
steamships that will carry these large
exports are the Livland, FINLAND, Au-
relia, Sidra, Briardale and the st. Kill
da.
Since these vessels began clearing on
last Saturday shipping offices have been
busy with the rush there to wind up
the affairs of steamers to make ready
for their departure. Active scenes along
the water front were such as have sell
dom been witnessed in late years, all
due to the rush and hurry to have
everything in readiness for the steam
ers to pass the bar and out to sea be-
fore day breaks in the new month.
The steamers that proceeded out early
last night were the Liveland, Aurella
and Sidra. The FINLAND sailed Sun
day. While the first three may have
stopped at the blight they will proceed
out on the early tide to-day
BY a singular coincidence the haste
of steamers to sail is accompanied by
a corresponding hurry among large
number of sailing vessels, which have
been tied up at their docks waiting an
opportunity to be towed out, some of
them for several days. The threaten
ing weather caused number of them
to wait for more promising indications
a sto the weather they might expect
at sea, and while waiting the number
was steadily increased, until the fleet
is such as to tax the towing facilities
of the port 1t is predicted that the
harbor will be cleared to-day, however,
and that all laden craft will be taken
out.
The friends of Capt. Lewis Virgins,
the aged and respected port warden
who has filled this office most accept
ably for years, will regret to hear that
he is confined at his home with little
hope of recovery. He took to his bed
several weeks ago, and has grown
worse until hope of his rallying has
been abandoned. Capt. Virgins ca
reer is a romantic one. In his early
years he was a seaman and as such
visited practically every civilized coun-
try on the globe He is now in the
eighties, and until a short time ago
was in robust health, with every prom
Use of living many years. His only
near relative is a daughter who re-
sides out of Savannah, but is now at
her fathers bedside.
