EXPECT AN INCREASE
IN TAX RATES.
County Rate VIII Not Be AnnOunc-
ed Until September.

ed Until September.
The announcement of the state tax
rate is expected daily. Those
who have watched matters closely this
year and compared the appropriations
by the Legislature this year with those
of last. expect that there will be an
increase in the state tax. In speaking
of the matter yesterday one of the
County Commissioners said:
1.-The county tax rate will probably
not be announced until after the meet
ing of the commissioners on Sept. S.
Under the law we need not
annouce our rates util thirty
days before the books open and
it is not likely that the mat
ter Will be decided before the Septem-
Der meeting 1t maybe however, that
a special meeting Will be called to de-
eide the matter during the latter part
of this month.
The present board has labored to
reduce tax rates and so far they have
succeeded to great extent. This year,
however, we have been compelled to
make additional appropriations in GER
tain lines and it may be that we shall
be competed to increase the rate. EV
cry effort will be made to keep the rate
down as low as possible in order to
meet all demands made upon US.
The principal increase, as shown in
our budget, has been for schools. We
have made appropriations greater on
the general line and then later, upon
the recommendation of the grand jury
we made the additional appropriation
requested by the school boards finance
committee
A prominent county officer stated
that he believed that the state tax rate
this year will be mills on the dollar.
The increased appropriation for schools
and other purposes will bring the fig
ures close to five. Under the law the
rate of mills on the dollar cannot be
exceeded. The same county official
stated that he believed the county tax
would be close to mills.
Tax Collector Thomson when
asked about the matter stated that he
had received no information on the
subject from either the state or coun-
ty authorities and declined to make
any estimate as to what the rate would
be.
Mr.. Marcus Baker, receiver of tax
returns, is still busy on his books. The
work has not yet proceeded far enough
to allow of any estimate as to the to-
tai being made. AS published in the
Morning News heretofore. however, he
expects that a slight increase will be
shown.

NEGRO WITNESSES
RELEASED ON BOND.
Were Turned Loose by Commission
er Hewlett Yesterday Morning.

Were Turned Loose by Commission
er Hewlett Yesterday Morning.
Sam Ferguson, Charlie Brinson and
Willie People, the three negroes whom
it is claimed Messrs. John E. Foy and
j. H. Beach held in a condition of in
voluntary servitude, were released yes
terday morning on bond for their APP
pearance as witnesses at the prelimi-
nary hearing on Sept. 4, and before
the federal grand jury in November.
Bond was furnished in the sum of
800 each, and the negroes were turned
loose.
All of the men were under sentence
of six months Imprisonment on the
Ethngham county changing and
scarcely month of this sentence had
been worked out when Deputy Marshal
j. Ben Wilson brought them to Sa
vannah as witnesses against Messrs.
Foy and Beach.
The action of the commissioner in re-
leasing the men under bond apparently
means that the government has suf-
hciently strong evidence to prove that
they were convicted and sentenced
without due process of law. Other
wise the men would undoubtedly have
been returned to the bingham county
gang.
Besides the releasing of these wit
nesses on bond, there were no develop
ments yesterday in the latest peonage
case. The defendants will be given
their preliminary hearing Immediately
after the return of Attorney w. w. Os-
borne, who will represent them. United
State Attorney w. R. Leaken will ap-
pear for the government.

UNSUITABLE HOMICIDE
SAID CORONER'S JURY.
John Robinson, who shot Woman
at Tybee, Given His Liberty.

at Tybee, Given His Liberty.
John Robinson, the negro who shot
! and killed Lizzie Chaplin, the cook of
DR.. NJ. F. Dunn, at Tybee Thursday
was released yesterday morning by the
coroner's jury, which investigated the
homicide. Two witnesses were exam
ined and the jury in few minutes
made up its verdict of justifiabie homi-
eide.
1t was shown conclusively that the
chaplin woman was attempting to
stab Robinson with a carving fork
When he fired and killed her. One wit
ness, however, testified that Robinson
mad stated the day before the Shoot
lng that II the woman did not stop
curslng him as she had been he would
XIII her. This was the only evidence
at all damaging to Robinson's cause.
annie Rivers, a servant employed at
the Dunn cottage, was the first wit
ness examined. She was holding the
Chaplin woman at the time she was
shot. She testified that the Chaplin
woman had her arms free and was
staDblng at Robinson, when he fired.
Though she was holding her about
the waist, she was unable to restrain
her The mark on Robinson's hand
where the fork grazed him bore out
the statement.
Tom Farmer, a fireman on one of
the Tybee trains, testified that Robin
son had stated the day before the
shooting that he would kill the woman
if she did not stop cursing him. The
fact that the woman had followed
Robinson through the house and was
advancing on him with the fork evil
IDENTIFY outweighed this statement with
the jury, for they were only a few
minutes in making up their verdict.
Robinson was at once released from
custody. The inquest was held yes
terday morning at 10 o'clock at the
office of DR.. ]. G. Kellar, county cor

THREE CONVICTIONS
IN CITY COURT
Large Falling on in Number OF
Criminal Cases.

Large Falling on in Number OF
Criminal Cases.
Criminal day in the City Court yes
terday was marked by a heavy fall
ing off in the number of criminals and
also in the number of convictions.
There were only seven who faced Judge
Norwood on criminal charges, and with
three exceptions all escaped. Nolle
prosequies were entered in cases
against two others. The following is
the record of conviction:
Hector Francis was charged with
larceny of guinea hen. Hector's de-
Tense was that he had mistaken the
guinea hen for a wild duck and had
captured 1t. The court decided that
this excuse was mighty poor one, and
found the defendant guilty. He was
sentenced to pay fine of $50 or serve
twelve months on the chaingang.
Henry Smith was found guilty of
stealing ham and sentenced to pay a
fine of $40 or serve twelve months on
the gang. Andrew Ray, charged with
vagrancy, plead guilty. He must pay
$50 or go to the gang for year.

COUNTY MAY PAVE

Petition of City Referred to Roads
and Bridges Committee.


and Bridges Committee.
A special meeting of the Chatham
County Commissioners was held yes
terday morning. The only business be-
fore the commissioners was the pres
entation of a petition from Alderman
r. J. Davant, chairman of the City
Council Committee on Streets and
Lanes, asking that the county pave
Bull street with cement gravel between
Forty-scond and Fifty second streets.
The petition was referred to the Com
mittee on Roads and Bridges, with full
power to act.
The county is now paving Wylly av-
enue with the cement gravel. Bull
street, between the two streets men,
toned above. is merely a portion of
Wylly avenue that lies within the city
limits. The county now has its men
at work in that section, the carts and
materials are all on hand. and the
paving could be done at considerably
less expense than if the city were to
take IL up. There seems to be but
little doubt but that the petition will
be granted.
