OLD CITY EXCHANGE ABANDONED
AFTER MORE THAN CENTURYS USE

Almost with the rising of the sun
this morning the first step towards
demolishing one of the most his
toric buildings in the South will be
taken.
While the city officials are NOV
ing from the City Exchange, work
men will begin dismantling the in
terror. The actual work of razing
the historic old building to the
ground will not be begun until the
contents have been transported to
police headquarters.
No building in the state Of Geor-
gia has more historic memories
clustered around it than this ven
cradle edif1ce. 1t has held a dane
ing hall and a harroom, an arsenal
and a banquet room 1t has been
the center of social life in Savan-
nah, and it has been the play house
of the struggling little city.
Give pride has demanded the
erection of more pretentious and
modern structure, but the lover Of
that which is antique, and of his
toric interest, cannot help but shed
a tear as the bricks of the old
building are ruthlessly rent asun-
der.
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1904-03-23

all of the distinguished visitors to Sa-
vannah have been received. The build
ing is more closely identified with the
eity's interests and advancement than
any other single structure.
With the stopping of the clock to-
day at noon, the building will be virtu-
ally abandoned. The clock is to be
taken down as fast as possible, as the
real work of tearing away the building
can not be commenced until the clock
is out of the way. John Rourke &
Sons have been given the clock to put
on their new building, provided they
viii keep it in good order. Robert
Schneider will take the clock down.
AS soon as Rourke's building is ready
for it. the clock will be installed there.
The actual work of tearing away the
Exchange is expected to begin Mon-
day.
Packed Up Their Belongings.
Yesterday all of the officials at the
exchange were busy packing up to
move. The city treasurer's office will
not be disturbed until after o'clock.
After that hour the treasurer's office
will be closed.
The portrait of Gen. Lee, which
adorns Councils chambers, is to be sent
TO the Georgia Historical Society,
while the new building is being erect
ed. Most of the other pictures at the
exchange will be taken to the office
at police headquarters. OF the relics
from the historic old building, the CO.
lonial Danes are to receive the post in
the stairway in which is imbe6ded
seal of the state. This had been given
to Chairman of Council Dixon, but he
gave it up when he learned that the
ladies desired it.

PE0NAGE CASES ARE
ASSIGNED FOR MARCH 81

Witness for the Government Cannot
BE Found by Marshals.
When the case against J. NJ. Cobb
and George P. Hart was called again
in the United States court yesterday
morning United States Attorney Aker-
man stated that he had not yet been
able to find the important witness need
ed to make out the governments case.
A special marshal had been sent
from this district to attempt to serve
the witness. and he learned that the
person in question had only recently
left home. All efforts to locate him
have thus far proved unavailing.
81 do not wish to establish a prece-
dent in this case" said Mr.. Alderman,
land so ask that be given time TO
find the man. If he is anywhere in
the United States 1 will find him ami
bring him here"
Judge Speer assigned the case to
March 81, this date being satisfactory
to the government and to the attorneys
for the defendants.

NAL DANES Get Post with Seal.
To-day at noon the clock on the old
City Exchange will be stopped, and
the work of removing it will begin.
The removal of the clock will take
several days and Mayor Myers issued
orders yesterday for the work to be
started to-day. so that the tearing
down of the building would not be
delayed. ?,
The moving of the city offices from
the Exchange will begin this morning
at o'clock. The director of public
works. who has the work in charge,
says the moving will be accomplished
in the shortest possible time. Satur-
day all of the city officers will be in
stalled in the temporary quarters at
police headquarters, that they are to
occupy until the new City Hall is COM
pleted.
Offices Close This Afternoon.
There will be practically no business
transacted to-day at the City Ex-
change after O'Clock The moving
of the effects from the treasurer's of
fee and the office of Mayor Myers will
not be started until the afternoon and
neither of these offices will be open
70 the public after that hour Though
the clerks or officials will be on hand
in almost all the other offices in the
afternoon, 1t is not thought that much
business can be transacted This aft
eFnoon everything will be in confusion
and practically no business can be
transacted in any department.
The moving will take a couple of
days. and possibly three. BY Saturday
night, however, all of the offices will
have been removed. For to-day and
tomorrow everything will be in con-
fusion because of the moving. All of
the city officers will go to police head
quarters, except the harbor master. He
will have an Office on East Bay street,
where he will be convenient to the
shipping interests.
Last Day in Old Building.
To-day really marks the last day
of the city administration in the old
building, a building that is very closely
identified with everything Of Importance
that has taken place in Savannah
during the last three-quarters of a
century. It was in this building that

Sentencing MOonshiners.
In the United States court yesterday
John Conner of Emanuel county plead
guilty TO making moonshine. Conner
had constructed his still from a piece
Of lead pipe and an old lard can.
In making his statement he said that
the whisky which he turned out was a

hardly worthy of the name of whisky
In many districts replied Judge
Speer. though it is not so in this one
making bad whisky is considered an
aggravation Of the offense."
He then imposed a sentence of one

prisoner be held in Jail until Saturday,
at which time the remainder of the
sentence will be suspended. during his
