RECEIVER APPLIED FOR.
Executor of Chisholm Estates Must
Turn Over Funds of Trust.

An application for the removal of
Mr.. Walter S. Chisholm, as executor of
the estates of the late Walter S. CHS
holm, the elder, and of the late Eliza
c. Chisholm, and for the appointment
of a receiver for these estates, was filed
in the Superior Court yesterday and a
temporary receiver was named.
The application was made by John
A. Chisholm, Edward Dec. Chisholm
and Frank M. Chisholm, brothers of
the defendant and co-heirs of the es-
tates of their father and mother.
through Adams Freeman, Denmark &
Adams. They set forth in their petit
ton to the court that by the terms of
Mrs. Chisholms will, the executor is
relieved of the necessity of making re-
turns to any corut and of filing any in
ventory of the estate and that as a
matter of fact no such return or inVen-
tory has ever been filed.
Mr.. Chisholms health has been bad
for some months and he is unable to
devote to the estate the attention that
it's conduct demands. The plaintiffs
express the regret they feel that they
have TO take such action. but state they
feel impelled to do so for the best in
tereStS of all
Mr.. Frank H. Miller of Augusta, who
was named as co-eXecutor with the de-
PENDANT. but never qualified, the plain
tiffs suggested as a proper person to
be appointed receiver, and the appoint
ment was made by Judge Barrow. The
receiver was directed in the courts or
der to take charge of the funds and as
sets of the estate wherever found, his
receipt to be deemed a sufficient quit
lance for all purposes. The defendant
and all others in present possession of
these assets are directed to deliver
them to the receiver upon demand and
without question.
The receiver is given express and
specific authority to open all safe de-
post boxes in Savannah and in the
Fifth Avenue National Bank in New
York city, in which any of the securi-
ties or other assets of the estate may
be deposited and in the event of re-
fusal on the part of those in charge of
these boxes to deliver their contents
to bring such legal actions as he may
be advised to bring by counsel
The receiver, in accordance with the
order of the court, furnished bond in
the sum of $4,000 for the faithful dis
charge of his duties. The defendant
was directed to appear in court on
Feb. Is and show cause why the relief
prayed for in the petition should not
be granted the receivership made
permanent and himself relieved of his
office as executor.

Signals denoting the approach of

10 o'clock and We're continued last
night in response to the following
warning sent from Washington: Hoist
northwest storm warning at 10 a. nj.
Storm center will pass off North Caro-

HOUSE DRAINAGE FINISHED.
Alderman Thomas, Chairman OF
Committee Has Filed His Report.

committee Has Filed His Report.
Alderman d. r. Thomas, chairman of
the Special Committee on House Drain
age, filed his report yesterday with the
Mayor. 1t is brief, though compre-
hensive, statement of just what has
been accomplished by the establishment
of the system, with an explanation of
how much of the expenditures above
appropriations for the work were rem
dered necessary. The report is as fol-
lows:
This years work has practically
completed the House Drainage work in
the city proper. The work on CASTOR,
Tattnan, Huntington and Forty-sec-
ond streets was very deep and in an
unstable soil, saturated with water,
making the work difficult and the eX-
pense greater than was expected. We
had a number of sewer breaks on these
lines after the work was completed,
which necessitated an additional eX-
pense of over SLOT 600 before we had
these particular lines ready for use.
The house drainage represents to date
over fifty 500 miles of sewers covering
the entire city, making it possible for
property owners to make sewer connec-
llOllS DIT a G6dScndDle NOSl.
During the past year more than COO
dry wells and vaults have been filled
and over 1900 connections made to
house drainage system
1T will only be question of a, very
few years when all closets and dry
wells will have been discontinued. In
addition to the great advantage to the
health OF the city, the doing away with
all surface closets and dry wells, which
has been accomplished by this sanitary
system of house drainage, the laying
of these different lines of pipe in all the
different streets and lanes of the city
at all depths, has lowered the water
level three to four feet. This has been
clearly illustrated in almost every por-
ton of the city. Where water used to
stand within three or four feet of the
surface we can now dig six to seven
feet without finding water
This system OF house drainage as is
now in use is in perfect working or
der. While the cost of work accom-
plished exceeded the appropriation in
1900 $40, 024.12 and in 1901 $40 993.99. much
of these expenses were made in repair
ing and rebuilding lines built strictly
according to plans and under the per-
sonal supervision of the engineer in
charge. When we recall the number of
experienced contractors who abandoned
this work after losing money, the city
is to be congratulated that so much
has been satisfactorily completed, the
more so since it has through it's depart
ment of public works accomplished
what experience proved was we'll nigh
impossible of attainment by contract.
We are still of the opinion that the
exceed three hundred thousand dol
lars"

WILL BE DOUBLE TAXED.
Many Failed to Make Returns to
City for Personal Property.

Many Failed to Make Returns to
City for Personal Property.
Yesterday was the last day for the re-
ceipt of tax returns upon personal
property at the office of the board of
city tax assessors and receivers Many
appeared to make their returns, having
put it off until the last day, but the to-
tai of returns made since Jan. 1 does
not run very much above 5000, while
last year, for the same period, there
were some 1890 returns made This
means that there will be a great many
double-tax impositions, as such is the
penalty for failure to make returns
within the specified time
The tax assessors were unable to ac-
count for the apathy of owners of per-
Sonal property in the matter of making
their returns. There was ample adverz
tisement of the fact that returns were
to be received up to and including
Jan. 81, and scarcely any other excuse
than carelessness or neglect could be
offered. When the time comes for the
payment of double taxes there will be
sorrow over the omission.

ARE DIFFERENT BURGLARS.
Negro Arrested for Entering Pnr-
sonage Remanded for Trial


sonage demanded for Trial.
The burglar arrested Monday night
by Rev. j. A. Smith, pastor of Ep-
worth Methodist Church. after enter
ing the parsonage. is not the man who
burglarized a house in the Tenderloin
district. and who attempted a criminal
assault upon one of the women. Supt.
Reilly says that from the report he
received of the TenderIoin burglary
the man who committed the crime is
going around with badly scratched
face.
The superintendent gathers the in
formation that in resisting the burglar
the woman badly scratched his race.
Supt. Reilly SAYS that the woman has
long finger nails and that the presence
of blood on the clothing makes 1t Ger
tain that she left her mark on the
burglar. 1t was because of this clue
the man with a SCARED face-that the
burglary was kept quiet and the super
intendent had hoped in that way to be
able to have the man identified. No
trace of him has yet been found, and
such a man has not applied at any of
the hospitals for treatment.
The negro, Seamore Brown, was given
preliminary examination by Recor
der Myrck in Police Court yesterday
and was remanded for trial in the Su-
perior Court Rev. Smith and Detective
Murphy appeared against the prisoner,
who stoutly denied that he had been in
the Methodist parsonage. He was
identified by the minister The man
ner in which Mr.. Smiths house was
entered was similar to the work done
at the other places by the unknown
burglar. Brown, however, has no scars
or scratches on his face and while it
was at first thought that he might be
the man who entered the Tenderloin
house because of the fact that his face
is not disfgured the theory could not
be credited by the superintendent. The
of the work of the men is
put down as a coincidence. The pris-
oner claims that his home is in Column
bia and that he has been employed as
a flagman by the Seaboard Air Line.
