COMMITTEE MEETING
PASSED FOR PRESENT.
Railroad Commission viii Meet To-
day and Action is Awaited.

Railroad Commission viii Meet To-
day and Action is Awaited.
Pending a meeting of the Railroad
Commission in Atlanta to-day, no
meeting of the joint committees from
the city and business organizations
with the Chamber of Commerce, was
held yesterday. 1t was found impos-
sible to secure the attendance of the
city committee, which is, however,
working in perfect harmony with the
Chamber of Commerce.
Application has already been made
for the suspension of circulars No. 3O1
and No. 302 by the Railroad Commits
sion until a hearing can be had by Sa-
vannah business interests. 1t is ex-
pected that at the meeting in Atlanta
to-day a date will be fixed for the
hearing.
In the meantime the facts and fig
ures to be presented to the commits
sion will be compiled and put in shape
for presentation to the commission in
Atlanta. 1t is expected that the time
granted will be sufficient to allow the
full preparation of the case from the
standpoint of Savannah interests.
Should the temporary injunction al
ready secured by the Central trust
Company holding up the promulga-
ton of the rates contained in the cir
culars be sustained, Savannah WILL of
course. drop the matter. In the event
that it is dissolved, Savannah will be
ready to show cause for an adjustment
of rates which will restore the former
relative positions of Savannah and At
lanta in the matter of freight sched-
ules.
A telegram was received during the
day by Mayor Myers, from Capt D. G..
Purse, announcing his acceptance of
the position of secretary.

CHARRED STUMP MARKS
SCENE OF LYNCHING.
Judge Advocate Napier Visited
Place Whore NEGROES Were Burned.

Judge Advocate Napier visited
Place Where Negroes Were Burned.
Col. George NJ. Napier, judge advo-
cate of the court-martial. returned last
night from Statesboro. where he spent
yesterday in looking over the localities
connected with the trial and lynching
of the two negroes, Cato and Reed. At
10 o'clock he left for Atlanta.
Col. Napier will return to Savannah
the latter part of the coming week and
will make final preparations for the
accommodation of the court-martial.
I visited the place where the ne
groes were lynched" said Col. Napier
Mayor Johnson and 1 went out to-
gether We had no difficulty in find
ing the place, though he had never
been there before.
The tree stump beside which the
negroes had been burned still marks
the spot. We recognized it from the
pictures. In the ashes at the foot we
found what at first appeared to be
scales of fish. but on closer investiga-
ton they proved to be bits of the
bones of the negroes. The scene was
a desOlate one. The surroundings were
evidently identical with those on the
day six weeks ago when the burning
took place. A pine tree nearby was
charred thoroughly, having evidently
caught from the confagration which
consumed the bodies of the two ne
groes."
In speaking of the time required by
the court-martial for its task, Col
Napier stated there would be no delay,
as the sittings would be expensive to
the state, making the greatest expedi-
ton desirable. He thought it possible
that a night session would be the rule.
There will probably be three stenogra-
piers on hand so that each days pro-
ceedings can be presented to the court
the following morning.
Col. Napier, the judge advocate is
a lawyer, having offices at Monroe and
Atlanta.

BE DECIDED AT ONCE.

Held for That Purpose.

Meeting of Joint Committee Will BE
Held for That Purpose.
At noon yesterday a meeting of the
committee from the Savannah Racing
Association and the Chamber of Com
merce was held in the rooms of the
former.
The meeting was called by Vice
President B. H. Levy, at the sugges-
tion of Chairman A. b. Moore. In a
letter to Mr.. Levy, it was explained
by Mr.. Moore that Illness would prob
ably prevent him from taking any ac-
tive part in the preliminaries and that
some one else would have to head the
movement.
1t was stated briefly at yesterdays
meeting by Mr.. Levy that the question
must be decided at an early date, as
it would soon be too late to get up the
amount required in time to make the
arrangements.
After some talk it was decided to have
another meeting at 4.30 o'clock this
afternoon, at which time the question
of holding the fair will be definitely
decided.

City Council Has Granted Petition
Against n Landmark.
By granting a very prosaic petition,
giving permission for the tearing down
of the veranda at No. 81 Jefferson
street and the substitution of a covered
porch, City Council has decreed the de-
struction of one of the landmarks of
the city.
The veranda was built more than
fifty years ago, and is a familiar sight
to every resident of the West Side.
1t can be seen from long distance
north or south on Jefferson street, and
by it's awkward proportions mars the
house of which it is part, and which
is at present occupied by DR.. A. Jaslne

slightly, but an obstruction to traffic
as it jutted out into the street over the
sidewalk.
The petition to City Council was from
Mr.. Carl Mendel, agent of the property.
