LAST TOLL GATE To- GO
COUNTY AND CITY To PURCHASE
WHITE BLUFF SHELL ROAD.
PROPOSITION TO THE CITY
HAS BEEN MADE BY THE COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS.

Aldermen and Commissioners Held
Brief Session at Court House and
Discussed AdvisablIity of Purchas-
ing W hite Bluff Road for $11 800.
County Would Expend About
10000 in ResurfacinE and Inn
proving LELAND Would Be Bought
on Either Side and Road Would
Be Made as Wide as Bull Street.
Not only will the White Bluff Shell
road be purchased by the county and
city and converted into a free road,
but the county will eXpend in the
neighborhood of $4,000 in resurfacing
and improving it.
Representatives of the city and coun-
ty met at the Court House yesterday
afternoon and discussed the ADVISABLE
ty of purchasing the road. No decis-
ion was reached although it was
agreed that the road should be bought.
The meeting was behind closed doors
and lasted only a short while. pro-
position was submitted to the city and
will be taken up at the meeting of
City Council tomorrow night Just
what this proposition is none of those
who attended the meeting would say.
It had been agreed to keep secret the
few words that were said during the
session and not to make public the
proposition submitted by the county.
until Council has passed on the mat
ter.
The road has been offered by Mr.. D.
B. Lester, through Walter P. LaRoche,
Esq, for $11.5OO and there appears to
be no doubt, but that the purchase
will be made The question to be set
tied is just what part of the purchase
money the county will pay and how
much the city will agree to pay.
After the road has been bought land
on either side will have TO be pur-
chased to make the road conform with
the width of Bull street. Bull street is
IS feet wide while the shell road
is only about 40 feet in width. Under
the new city limits about half a mile
of the shell road will be within the
jurisdiction of the city and it is fig
ured that it is absolutely necessary
for the city to join hands with the
county and take the road off Mr.. Les
ter's hands.
The county will make extensive i'm
provements on the road and it will be
one of the finest in this vicinity when
the work has been completed. The
meeting at which the matter was dis
cussed was attended by Commissioners
Lathrop. chairman, Moore and Wylly,
and Aldermen Dixon, Schroeder and
Thomas. The aldermen represented the
Finance Committee and the Committee
on City Lots and Opening Streets.

Governors Horse Guard and the Can

this morning. At o'clock the regular

The first troop of volunteers to reach

They arrived in Savannah shortly aft

TO the camp grounds, where tents We're

spite this fact he received a number
of kilograms yesterday urging him to
accept it,
In order to have his position thor
oughly understood, Judge Barrow went
to Atlanta last night. He will remain
there to-day returning to Savannah
tomorrow morning. While in Allan
ia, he will call upon Gov. Terrell, Hon.
Clarke Howell, president of the Sen
ate, and others in an effort to definite
ly determine the matter.
In the event Judge Barrow still de-
clines to allow his name to be used, it
is said that the Governor will appoint
Hon. Henry G. Turner of Quitman.
Judge Bennett of Brunswick has also
been consideded. The friends of Judge
Beverley D. Evans of Louisville, who
is in the race for the Supreme Court
bench next year are, it is said, urg-
ing the Governor to appoint him.
In the event Judge Barrow should
accept the appointment, it is regarded
as foregone conclusion that the Gov
ernor would then appoint Col G. T.
Cam judge of the Superior Court in
his stead.

Bull and Congress streets, there is no
halt in the general work. Considerable
portion of the marble of the first story
is now in place and gives an idea of
what may be expected when the SPLEEN
did building is completed. The work
of putting in the terra Gotta floors con-
tinues steadily and all portions of the
building not held back by the delay of
material, are receiving attention and
show advance every day. A feature
that has not failed to attract attention
is the insistence of the builders in
having every detail exactly right. That
the building is intended to be fireproof
and stormproof and complete in every
respect is assured, for the closest in
spection will show that no undue haste
is permitted and nothing faulty, in ma
terial or workmanship is allowed to
enter into the structure.
Capt. Henry Blum, president of the
bank said yesterday that while he was
of course sorry that there was delay
in getting the material for the upper
story and roof that the contractor yet
assured him that the building would be
ready for occupancy at the time ap-
pointed, Oct. l. He was not disposed
to think that this could be done, but
from the reports made to him he be-
lieved that at least a number of the
tenants who had made arrangements
for offices would be able to move in
about that time.
In justice to others who had applied
for offices Capt. Blum said that he had
declined to make further contracts, as
he did not wish to disappoint anyone.
The building will have, besides the
quarters for the Germania Bank, near
ly one hundred offices, and it is under
stood that all of these could be rented
at once if the officers would undertake
to let them from Oct. l.

The Senate will confirm to-day the
reappointment of Judge Thomas M.
Norwood as judge of the City Court
of Savannah, which was made yester-
day by Gov. Terrell.
Gov. Terrelrs action in reappolnting
Judge Norwood was not a surprise.
BY many it was considered foregone
conclusion though the supporters of
Col. G. r. Cam. his opponent for the
place. maintained that the influential
the Governor to other action. Col.
Cam, it is thought by those familiar
with the situation, made a splendid
race, but he was unable to overcome
the considerations which moved the
Governor to reappoint Judge Norwood.
There was nothing else for the Gov
ernor to do said one gentleman in
speaking of the appointment. Judge
Norwood has proved himself learned
and able Judge. He discharges his
duties faithfully. He has long been
prominent before the country, and his
retention was urged by prominent citi-
zens of the county and state. The
charge against him was incomptency
This his adversaries could scarcely
have hoped to maintain"
Judge Norwood himself has never
been worried about the appointment.
Whenever approached about the race,
his invariable reply was always: Il
am not worried" Despite this fact he
frankly admitted yesterday after She
appointment had been received, that he
was glad that the matter was settled.
The news of the reappointment
reached Savannah during the morning
while Judge Norwood was holding
court. 1t spread rapidly, and in a
short time hundreds of his friends were

Gov. Terrell has taken no action as

he will make an appointment within
the next day or two.

the hVeliest commands in camp, and
made things CHEEKY with their singing.

night at the camp, ready for duty this
morning. During the day general or
