THE VERDICT NOT A SURPRISE
The verdict in the courlmartial case

The verdict in the courimartial case
growing out of the Sta esboro lynch
ing, as published yesterday, was no
surprise to the people of Georgia who
kept up with the evidence as adduced.
Captain r NJ. Bitch is adjudged guilty
and ordered dismissed from the mill
tary service of the state Lieut. Nell
of Company [ is adjudged guilty of
conduct prejudicial to the military
discipline and orderd suspended for
one year and publicly reprimanded.
Other officers received lesser SEN
fences. The finding of the courtmar-
tial will tend to restore the prestige of
the military arm of the stae, which
was severely reflected upon when 1t
failed to prote ct the lives of prisoners
it was ordered to defend, thus allow
ing the majesty of the law and the
dignity of the state to be trailed IN the
dust. The history of how the two
negroes were taken away from the
troops after they had been tried, con-
v1cted and sentenced by Judge DAILY
to be hanged, and then burned at the
stake nv the mob. is everywhere we'll
known. A court of inquiry appointed
to Investigate the conduct of the troops
at Statesboro was followed by a court
martial appointed by Governor Terrell.
With the presentation of its findings
and sentences to the governor, through
AdjuantGeneral Harris, the courtmar-
tial completed its work, and this has
been approved in every particular by
Governor Terrell. It now remains on
ly for the adjutant general to carry
out the sentence by the issuance ofthe
requisite orders. This verdict of the
Military court giver assurance that il
future when the military of the state
is called upon for such duty as in the
Statesboro affair that the guns will bt
loaded aud the NJ aiesty Of the law up
held at any cost.

CHEAP ICE PROMISED
FOR THE SUMMER.

Cheap ice and plenty of it is prom
ised Savannahians during the coming
summer.
While not much thought is being
given to ice just at this time the an
nouncement that it will almost be
given away in THE good old summer
time" is certain to be pleasant news.
Mr.. w. w. Aimar is going to put
in a plant at his sawmill and lumber
yard on Wheaton street, and stated
some time ago that he would be able
to freeze water and sell it at 8 cents
a hundred pounds. and still make
money.
Just how Mr.. Aimar will be able to
do It is a question that does not con-
Germ the consumers. so long as he
keeps his promise. Ice is a decided
necessity in the summer, and at 5
cents a hundred even the poor can
afford to purchase it. And. too, Mr..
Aimar Will not go into the ice busi-
ness for his health. He expects to
make money as we'll as make the con-
sumers happy.
Under what conditions the ice will
be delivered is not yet known. Mr.
Aimar is not in the city. and no au-
thoritative statement concerning 'he
proposed enterprise could be secured.
He Is at one of his mills at Aimar,
Ga, on the Atlantic Coast Line, and
during his absence from the city no
one at his place is willing to make a
statement about the plant that he in
tends operating during the coming

NO PLANS MADE FOR
VISITING OFFICERS
Lack of Definite Information Made
1t Impossible to Do So.

1t Impossible to DO So
The committee appointed by City
Council to prepare a programme of en-
tertainment for the army officers and
the officers of the War Department,
who are expected to reach Savannah
this afternoon en- route to st. Angus
tine, have heard nothing definite yet
from the party and are, therefore, un-
able to plan a programme.
1t was learned through a railroad
source that the party, which is sup
posed to number some fifteen persons,
will reach Savannah on train No. 81
due to arrive at 1920, Eastern time,
to-day, and will remain here until
train No. q leaves for the South to-
morrow morning at $50 Eastern time.
If further information as to the num-
Der OF the party is received to-day be-
fore the arrival of the train it is still
possible that something may be done
to entertain the visitors, though moth
ing elaborate can be planned because
of the short time that will remain at
the disposal of the committee.
Should the plan of having the visit
ors stop over in Savannah at this time
prove impossible it will be a great dis
appointment to those of the militia
and the representatives of Council,
who have been looking forward to the
visit, but it is very likely, in fact, quite
certain, that an invitation will be ex-
tended to the party to make a stop
over for a day, at least, on the return
trip northward.

MORE THAN $4,000
FOR SCHOOLS.
Board of Education at Once Paid
Out S16,5OO to Germania Bank.


Out $16,5OO to GermRnia Bank.
Supt. Otis Ashmore yesterday morn
ing received from the state the amount
of money still due from 1908. The
amount received was $16,060.S0.
With this nearly all the money which
Had been borrowed from the Germania
Bank, pending payment from the state
and county, was refunded and the ball
ance will be paid as soon as the county
hands over what is still due from it.
The schools of Chatham county are
by no means in debt, despite the fact
that $17, 500 was borrowed from the
Germania Bank at the opening of the
ever, to tide the school over
until the state sent in its
money and as an accOmmoda-
tion TO teachers and other officials who
would otherwise have been compelled
to wait until yesterday to receive full
payment for work done in 1908.
The resources Of the Board of Edu-
cation are pretty we'll known and he
expenses which are to be met with can
be figured out very closely. Though
the receipts are known and can be ac-
curately predicted, they come in very
1rregurariy and as a result money must
be borrowed to meet expenses prompt
ly. Arrangement was therefore made
with the Germania Bank whereby
SIT 500 was secured.
With the money received from the
state there was not enough on hand to
meet all this debt. A little more than
$1,000 was in the treasury of the board,
but not wishing to be entirely without
money, just enough was taken from
this to pay all but $1,000 to the bank
This note will hang over until the ooun-
ty pays the balance due.
The Board of Education" said Supt
AshmOre, lis not permanently in debt
as some may think from the fact that
we borrowed money from the Ger
mania Bank. We simply borrowed
that money in order that the teachers
and others drawing salaries from the
board would not be compelled to wait
until all our receipts were in hand
The money l received from the state
to-day was the balance due for the
calendar year 1903. Had we not bor-
rowed, some of last years salaries
would not yet have been paid"
