The chorus did not know the music, and

Maria Farnei was the Iris, Schiavazzi

HAD NO RIGHT TO FEES.
Supreme Court Decides in Favor of
Terrell Estate.

supreme Court Decides In Favor of
Terrell Estate.
The Supreme Court of the state yes
terday reversed the judgment of the
City Court of Savannah in the case
of the Germania Bank against Maria
V. Demere, executrix of the estate of
Matilda G. Terrell. The question in
dispute was the right of George w.
Owens. attorney for the bank, to have
judgment for attorneys fees, and the
Supreme Court now says he was not
entitled to it.
Suit was brought by the bank on
note for 100000 made by Mrs. Terrell.
on which interest to the amount of
about $4,000 had accrued. No defense
was filed and judgment went by de-
fault, for principal, interest and attor-
ney's fees.
Subsequently the defendant, having
paid the principal and interest of the
judgment, moved to set it aside so far
as it related to attorneys fees, on
the ground that under the state law
a stipulation for attorneys fees as a
penalty for litigation. in case no de-
Tense to suit was filed, was void.
Mr.. Owens contended he had a
right to his fees, which amounted to
about $4,000, because the stipulation
was in the security deed on which
the loan was based, and not in the
note given by Mrs. Terrell. Judge
Norwood considered this distinction
valid and so ruled but the Supreme
Court does not seem to have thought
much of 1t. 1t has decided that the
stipulation was void and, that Mr..
Owens has no right to any fees what
ever.
An effort to compromise the suit was
made by the representatives of Mrs.
Terrell, who had died at the age of 80
years, while the case was pending, but
the offer was refused by Mr.. Owens.
The estate was represented by Adams.

ADAMS lover HOME"
BIGAsIIsT LOST NO TIME IN GET
TING OUT OF SAVANNAH.
LEFT ON FIRST TRAIN.
THEN WROTE HIS ATTORNEY TO
COME OVER AND TALK.

Adams Had Already Left the City
When Telegram From the Gov
ernOr, Directing That He Be Held,
Was Received by Sheriff Schwarz.
Effect Received Yesterday and
Sheriff Wires He Can't Do What Is
Asked-Case Now Up to South Caro-
lima COurts-RecOrder Gives His
Reason for Directing the BiEa-
mist's Release.
]. H. Adams, whose disappearance
from the City Court Friday created so
much CONSERVATION, succeeded in max
ing his way back to South Carolina
where he now is. A letter disclosing
his whereabouts, written by Adams to
w. F. Slater, his attorney, was re-
ceived here yesterday morning.
The letter was dated Vaudeville, S.
c., for which point he must have
taken the first train leaving the city
after mis- informal departure from the
jurisdiction of the City Court. In the
letter he asked Mr.. Slater to come over
to Scotia and have a consultation with
him about his case.
Under the circumstances it is not at
all remarkable that the deputy sheriffs
who were searching for Adams failed
to find him, as he had left the city
some hours before the telegram from
Gov. Gambler, directing that he be
held, arrived.
A second telegram from the Cover
nor, to the same effect as the first,
was received by the sheriff yesterday,
but he was no more able than he had
previously been to comply with it's
mandate. The Governor was so ad-
vised by wire.
The prosecution is now up to the
South Carolina authorities, as Adams
has left this state and the Georgia
courts no longer have Jurisdiction. Mr.
Slater left yesterday afternoon to ad-
wise with his client as to the defense
he will make when a prosecution is
inaugurated, as it probably will be, in
the town where he has lived for the
past year.
In explaining, his action in granting
Adams discharge Recorder Shelby
Myrick said:
Il signed the discharge more to pro-
tect the City Court officials who had
released Adams than for any other
reason. l knew at the time that Ad-
ans had been out of their custody for
more than three hours. Mr.. Slater
came to my office at 4 o'clock and rep
resented to me that Mr.. Oliver, as at
torney for the prosecutrix in the big
amy case, had consented to his re-
lease on the statement made relative
to the Governors position in the mat
ter in the Morning News.
Il would have released him under
the statement therein contained. had
no reason to expect that the Governor
would wire me his ultimatum in the
matter, and l thought that, of course,
Mr.. Oliver had received some COM
munication or else he would never
have consented to let Adams co.

FAST VISITING YACHT.

by the yachts of the Atlantic Yacht

ever, was protested by the Meta w.

of the May B., the judges have re-
Gently had such evidence brought to
their attention that they will recon

In addition to the boats of the club.
there will be one additional entry in
the race, the Elizabeth, a fast flyer
of Charleston, which was brought to
Savannah for the express purpose of
testing the sailing qualities of the To-
cal yachts and the seamanship of their
crews. Her performance this after
noon will be watched with much in
terest, as 1t is not improbable that
she may challenge some one of the To-
cal yachts for a race.
