FIVE MONTHS IN JAIL.
German Sailor Released Through
Efforts of His Embassy.


Efforts of His Embassy.
A man who has recently passed
through somewhat unique experience
reached the city yesterday morning.
He was George Gilman, a German of
considerable education. who has spent
the last five months of his life in Jail,
accused, he says, unjustly, of serious
crime.
On Sunday, May 25, Ottman arrived
in Albany from Jacksonville, Fla,
tramping through the country Being
very warm, he was exhausted, could
not proceed further, and about $50
o'clock in the evening got into an
empty freight car and went to sleep.
| EARLY next morning he was found there
by two policemen and arrested.
He was subsequently charged with
having broken into this car and to
have stolen goods.
The man is sailor, evidently of good
family and education. He has been
leading a seafaring life for about ten
years. After he was imprisoned he
communicated with the German en-
bassy in Washington, and the ambassa-
dor referred the matter to the con-
sulate in this city.
Emile Newman, attorney for the con-
sulate, communicated with lawyers and
authorities in Albany, but was inform
ed that the man was under bond of
| $500 and had to await the action of
the Superior Court at the october term.
| Mr.. Newman arranged to go to Albany
on Monday.
Yesterday morning, however, he re-
ceived letter from Gilman, stating
that he had been released uncondi-
tiOnally and would come to Savannah,
having been furnished with a ticket
to this point. He arrived here and
called at Mr.. Newman's office, who took
him to the consulate. Through the
| consuf he was given board and lodging
at the Port Society Home. Efforts will
be made to get him employment on
one of the outgoing German steam
ers.
| Altogether, the case seems to be a
very hard one, the man having been
kept in prison all the time and hav-
ing no redress. He committed no
wrong, but had it not been for the
pressure brought to bear, he probably
would have been kept still longer.

not accede to the request

ton for the memorial tablet which the
D. A. r. will place on the shaft over
Gen. Greene's remains was also con-
the matter with the regent. Mrs. Ka-
row, with instructions to prepare a
suitable inscription. The resignation of
Mrs. Julian B. Johnson as secretary of
the chapter was read and accepted,
with regrets.
Committees were appointed by the
regent to look. out for the entertain
ment of the delegates, and the prepar-
alton of all matters relating to the
conference. These committees were vas
follows:
On Arrangement Gilbert, Mrs.
Karow, Mrs. Woods, Mrs Charlton,
Mrs. Remshart, and Mrs. Barney; on
