RIVER TRIP WAS
DECIDED SUCCESS.
League Visitors Inspected the Quar-
antine station.

League NtsitorS inspected the auar-
antine station.
With delightful trip on the steamer
Clifton to the bell buoy and back, via
Quarantine Station. the members of she
League of Georgia Municipalities were
entertained yesterday afternoon.
The weather was perfect and the trip
was thoroughly enjoyable. The Cliff
ton left the foot of Whitaker street at
/ o'clock and an excellent lunch was
served on board. The stop at Quaran-
tine Station was made on the return
trip. Here the workings of the sta
ton were explained by Health officer
Drummer and the marine officer in
charge.
The use of the various pieces of ma
chnery was explained by DIR. Drummer
and the visitors seemed greatly inter
ested. The short stay at Quarantine
was a pleasant one, and was an in
structive incident of the trip, partic-
ularly for the visiting physicians.
There were quite number of base
ball enthusiasts on the trip, and so
that they might see a part of the game
with Augusta, the Clifton was first
stopped at Salas' wharf, near the foot
of East Broad street. In the neigh
borhood of fifty of the officials caught
an f. & w. belt car and a record
breaking trip was made to Bolton and
East Broad streets. Just half of the
game had been played and the score
was 1 to 1.
on the boat Mr.. NJ. Ed. Wilson had
on exhibition some excellent pictures
he had taken of the automobile pa
rade, the laying of the corner stone
and other Incidents of the sessions of
the league, including a splendid group
picture of the members of the league.
The trip down the river was made
under the auspices of the committee, of
which Alderman Garfunkel was chair
man, and passed off without a hitch.

ONE CRIMINAL CASE
IN SUPERIOR COURT.
Variety of other Matters Disposed
of by Judge Cann.

Variety of other Matters Disposed
of by Judge Cam.
Edward Powers was tried yesterday
in the Superior Court for larceny aft
err trust and found not guilty by the
trial jury.
1t was alleged that Powers had been
entrusted with the fiat-bottomed sloop
Rover, by Peter Rowland, and that he
had converted it to his own use. The
evidence brought out by the state was
not sufficient. in the minds of the
jurors, to justify the conviction of the
man.
Attorney Gordon Saussy filed a mo-
ton for a new trial in the case of Joe
King, recently tried and convicted of
lnurderous assault.
An order was passed by the court in
cooperating the Brotherhood Union of
Savannah, a beneficial organization.
A first verdict was secured in the di-
vorce libel of Mollie j. Delegal, against
Joseph G. Delegal.

SAVANNAH WILL SEND
LITERATURE TO FAIR.
City VIII Be Advertised at st. Louis
If Mayor Has His Way.

Mr.. r. NJ. Martin, who is in charge
of the Georgia exhibit at the st. Louis
exposition, called on Mayor Myers yes
terdaY and urged upon him the neces-
sity Of having some Savannah litera-
tu~e at the fair for distribution
cir. Martin explained to the Mayor
that Savannah had a much battet eX-
hibit at the exposition than any city
in Georgia, but that other towns are
giving away attractive litera ture
while Savannah is not.
The Mayor instructed Secretary
Gamble to at once begin work on a
booklet, and the matter will be taken
up with Council at the meeting Wed
nesday. The Mayor thinks the city
should appropriate money to have the
booklet published, and this will prob
ably be done. Mr.. Martin will return
to st. Louis next week.
