DIVORCE is GRANTED;
REMARRIAGE DENIED.
Unusual Verdict Returned by Trial
Jury in Superior Court.

Unusual Verdict Returned by Trial
Jury in Superior Court.
An unusual verdict was returned
yesterday morning by trial jury in
the Superior Court in the divorce libel
of C. A. Munster against Mary c.
Munster. The divorce was granted,
but both parties are barred from mar
rying again.
The verdict came as an entire sur
prise to everyone. The case came on
to be heard at the opening of the court,
and after the customary evidence had
been given, the papers were handed
to the jury. Counsel had prepared a
verdict ending with the usual phrase
that both" parties be allowed to re-
marry. The jury crossed out the word
both" and subs neither" before
the foreman signed his name.
The case has been before the courts
for some time. Mrs. Munster first got
alimony in the sum of $50 per month
from her husband He, shortly after,
instituted suit for divorce. A cross
libel was then filed by the wife and
on May 81 last a verdict was granted
her. The case terminates with the de-
cree given yesterday.

oLD-TIME RIVER CAPTAIN DEAD.
Capt. Martin Frederick Thirty Years
Master of Tugboat.

Capt. Martin L. Frederick. for thirty
years one of the best known steam
boat men of Savannah, died at his
home near Egypt night before last.
His funeral took place yesterday aft
ernoon.
Capt. Frederick was a native of
Philadelphia and was about so years
old. He came to Savannah in 1867 as
engineer of the tugboat John w.
Lynne, of which he was part owner.
When he retired from active service
in 1897, he was pensioned by the Pro-
peller Towboat Company, in whose
service he had been for many years,
and went to live on his farm near
Egypt. Capt. Frederick had been mas
ter of nearly every towboat on the
Savannah river during his long serv-
ice, and was known all along the coast.
There were few men on the river who
did not know Mart" Frederick. He
had been in failing health for some
time and his death was not a sur
prise. He leaves a wife and one son.
AS soon as the news of his death
was received yesterday morning the
flags on all the vessels of the Pro-
peller Towboat Company were placed
at half-mast in respect to his mem

CIVIL ACTION is ON.
Almost Entire Day Occupied I'm SUI
periOr Court.

Almost Entire OAy OCCUPIED IN SUI
periOr Court.
Almost the entire time of the SUI
perior Court yesterday was occupied
in the trial of the case of Walter Scott
was brought to recover money claimed
to be due the plaintiff and there was
little interest attaching to the case.
At 1880 p. m. the evidence was all in
and argument was postponed until this
morning.
The evidence consisted for the great
er part of statements by the plaintiff
and absolute denials by the defendant,
the two alternating on the stand for
the greater part of the day. Each
showed a tendency to give elaborate
and detailed statements of even the
smallest transactions and several times
the court was compelled to demand that
the witnesses answer the questions of
counsel in alternatives or negatives.
When the evidence was all in Judge
Cam asked counsel how much time
would be required for argument. Capt.
H. Emmett Wilson announced that he
would be guided in that matter solely
by the opposing counsel. Mr.. D. c.
Barrow. counsel for Scott. at once
jumped to his feet and stated that in
view of the proposition of opposing
counsel, he would consent to allow the
case to go to the jury without argu-
ment.
Capt. Wilson then stated that he
would like about five minutes for argu-
ment The prospect of the case con-
tinuing any longer, however, was not
relished by the court, and recess was
taken until $50 o'clock this morning.

CANTAL0UPE SUPPLY

mand Thus Far.
There was a considerable shortage
in the receipts of cantaloupes from
Florida yesterday. While the crop this
season is small, the supply yesterday
was not sufficient to last more than
half of the day. Local dealers were
not informed whether the crop was
playing out or whether shipments to
other points reduced Savannah's share.
The melons this season are smaller
than last fall, but of good quality, and
are commanding higher prices. The
demand has been good all along. The
Georgia cantaloupes are expected with
in ten days, and from present indica-
lions the Florida crop will be entirely
exhausted by that time. The Geor
gia melons will be somewhat larger
than those sent from Florida, and their
quality has been helped by the recent
rains, which fell too late for the Flor
ida growth.
There are more cantaloupes con-
stunned right here in Savannah than in
any city of its size in the country, or
than are eaten anywhere else in pro-
portion to population" said produce
man yesterday THE demand is al
ways good. The supply from Florida
has been so meager this season that
the number eaten so far is consider
ably under the record.
However, l think that when the
Georgia melons get on the market we
will be able to supply the demand"

Mr.. II. G. Cunningham, Represent
ing General Creditors, viii Take
steps hmm ediately to Protect Gem
eraI Creditors - MIR. George w.
Owens Will Present Case for Bank.
First Time Corporation Has Been
Made Trustee.
An application will be made before
Judge Speer at Macon to-day on behalf
of the Germania Bank in the Georgia
Car and Manufacturing Company case.
asking that an injunction heretofore
issued restraining the bank from fore
closing a mortgage for $51 900, be dis
solved. Mr.. George w. owens, repre-
senting the Germania Bank, left last
night for Macon, where he will make
the application.
Some time ago the car company
pledged it's entire issue of first mort
gage bonds with the Germania Bank
as collateral for a loan of over $4,000.
When the company went into bank
ruptcy one of the first acts of Judge
Speer was to enjoin the bank from
foreclosing.
Accompanying Mr.. Owens will be Mr..
H. C. Cunningham of the firm of Law
ton & Cunningham, attorneys for the
Savannah Trust Company, trustee for
the bankrupt company, who will as
sist in securing the dissolution of the
injunction.
In case the application is allowed by
Judge Speer, Mr.. Cunningham will
take steps to protect the interests of
the general creditors. One of the
steps which may be taken will be to
apply for leave for the trustee to ne
gotiate a loan, based on trustees GER
tificates, large enough to pay off the
mortgage.
Should the injunction be dissolved,
and the mortgage foreclosed, this
would force the property to a sale be-
fore it could be properly administered.
Such a course, it is believed would be
disastrous to other creditors as it
would prevent the realization of the
full worth of the assets. This would
be a great hardship on the general
creditors whose claims are unsecured
The appointment of the trust COM
pany as trustee is the first time such
action has been taken in this district

SOUTH CAROLINA CROPS
ARE IN GOOD SHAPE,
CaterpiIlars Have Been Driven
Away, Says MIR. Peoples.


Mr. H. H. PEBBLES has just returned
from a trip through the cotton section
of South Carolina. He found that rains
have been more plentiful in that state
tL,an in Georgia, and that the crops are
looking we'll.
There was danger to the trees from
the caterpillars for time" said Mr.
Peoples yesterday, but 1 think these
pests have about played out for the
time at least. The fruit trees were
badly afflicted with them, but the own
ers girdled the trees with pine gum
and paper, and the worms could not
get up.
Crops are very good in the section
of the state 1 visited, which included
parts of Hampton, Barnwell and Bam-
berg counties. There have been more
rains there than here. Corn. cotton,
rice and potatoes are getting along
we'll, though all are a little backward
from the dry weather. 1 saw a gem

told me that everything was looking
fine in his section"

TO DISCUSS CHANGE
IN TERMS OF COURT
Lawyers VIII Meet to Consider sug-
Eested Plan.

Rested Plan.
There will be a meeting of the Chat
ham County Bar at 10 o'clock this
morning to discuss the feasibility of
changing the terms of the court. The
idea of making a change was suggested
by Judge Cam.
Under the present arrangement the
June term, owing to it's great length,
makes the December docket unusually
heavy. Cases which were not filed for
the June term must go over until the
December term, and as a result there
is rush of business during the latter.
1t has been suggested by Judge Cam
that either the time of opening the De-
cember term be changed to an earlier
date, or that an additional term be add
ed. The suggestion has met with the
general approval of the bar and it is
probable that some definite action will
be taken toward effecting change to-
day.
