New York, May 21.-Charles w.
Morse, banker. now serving a fifteen
year sentence in the Federal prison in
Atlanta, Ga, may be a free man in a
few days if opinions expressed by law
yerS in this city last night prove to be
correct. It was declared by them that

day III Boston in the sentencing of
George W. Coleman for a $3O9, 900
bank theft which will enable Mr.. Mar
tin w. Littleton, Mr. Morses lawyer,
to obtain his clients freedom on d writ
Of habeas corpus.
In moving for sentence of Coleman
in Boston, District Attorney French
read chapter 5209 of the Federal Stat.
utes, under which Coleman was tri~ d,
a. Under which Morse also was tried.
Mr. French pointed oat that the stat

establishing Federal penitentiaries it
is stated that prisoner can only be

1t was ccntended by friends of Mr..
Morse last night that as he was sent
to Atlanta for violation of chapter

made Mr.. Rothschild's stock being
one of the largest in this section, con-
sists of everything that can possible
be carried by jewelry store, and all

DAMAGE DONE
BY LIGHTNING
BRUNSWICK WAS VISITED BY
SMALL ELECTRIC STORM
LAST NIGHT.
Bolt Struck Electric Effects at the
Plant of the Mutual Light and
Water Company, Putting Street
Cars Out of Business.

Brunswick was visited by an cleo
trical storm last night, which, while
not very serious in its results, put the
electric cars entirely out of business
for the night, burning out an import
ant piece of machinery at the plant
of the company, frightened number
Cf people almost to death and caused
many negroes to think that it was a
forerunner of the beginning of the
end of the world because of the many
peculiar ideas which they are enter
tanning in regard to that now famous
HALEY comet.
The storm lasted for only few min
utes, but several bolts of lightning
struck various places over the city and
played around the electrical wires and
effects to such an extent that it was
feared for time that serious damage
was done.
One bolt played around the plant
of the Mutual Light and Water COM
pany for several seconds. finally ignit-
ing the electrical part of one of the
idl Sc IuuC4lluSS, lHuo putting IllC Cll-
tire system completely out of business.
The cars were not able to move after
the accident, and Though work of re-
Tairing the damage was started at
once, up to an early hour this morning
there was still no power. 1t is eX-
pected, however, that the cars will be
importation as usual this morning.
The various cars of the company
were scattered over the city and late
last night it. was decided to remove
them to the car barn. Horses were
hitched to the cars and with the as
sistance Of a number of negroes and
a block and tackle they were, one by
one, pulled to the shed, the work not
being completed until almost daylight.
Besides the damage to the plant of
the street car company, no other ser
ious damage was caused in the city.

CONF FERENCE BY
THE LUMBE RMEN
AN IMPORTANT MEETING TO BE
HELD IN WASHINGTON
ON TUESDAY.

meeting of deep Importance to
the lumber industry all over the south
will be held in Washington, D. c.. on
Tuesday next, and while Brunswick,
SC far as could be learned yesterday
will not be represented at the gather
ing, most of the other port cities of
the south will send large delegations.
The following from the Savannah
News of yesterday, will throw some
light on the subject and will be of
general interest in the lumber circles
of this city.
The lumber committee Of the board
of trade decided yesterday to send a
delegation to Washington next week
to attend a conference in that city next
Tuesday of the lumber interests of the
country relative to the PRONUNCIATION
of the rules and regulations governing
the inspection Cf short leaf pine.
The Savannah lumber trade will be
represented at the conference by w.
B. Stillwell of the Southern Pine Com
pany of Georgia, R. H. Knox, of the
!
Dixon CT the Dixon Lumber Company
J. L. Meredith of the Hirsch Lumber
Company, J. w. Newman of the Con-
solidated Lumber Company Of Georgia
w. F. Baker of A. S. Bacon & Sons,
J.. A. Calhoun of George F. Craig &
Co., and F. R. burden of the Burden
Pine Company.
In addition to the appointed dele
gates sereval others CT the Savannah
factors will be represented at the con-
ference by their Northern connections
who will appear as delegates from 9TH
er cities and interests.
The conference will be one of the
most momentous gatherings in the his
tory of the lumber industry. 1t is said
that heretofore there has been no reg
llar attempt to inspect short leaf pine.
One of the northern exchanges some
months ago issued set of tentative
rules which were rejected by the Sa-
vannah committee as insufficient. A
conference was then asked for. 1t is
probable that a general committee will
be appointed at the Washington con-
ference to draw up and submit for
adoption regulations covering the sit
uation.
This matter has been under consider
alton before the Savannah Board OF
Trade for some time Several of the
leaders in the moveent were in Sa-
vannah some weeks ago for the pur-
pose of going over The situation with
the lumber committee of the board.
1t is proposed to pat the short leaf
pine industry on a footing where an
authorized inspector will pass upon the
product when it is offered. for ship
ment at the ports.
