Tile Excursion to Dautuakle.
The excursion of the Anderson Street
Presbyterian Sunday School to Daufuskie
yesterday was a very delightful affair, and
a splendid success. The steamer Plant left
the wharf about nine o’clock with a goodly
party, and after a pleasant run reached the
wharf on the historic island, where all
were safely and rapidly landed. The
weather was charming, and the day wore
away most eojoyably. The party express
their highest appreciation of the courtesy
and kindness of Mr. H. M. Stoddard, In plac
ing his elegant house and beautiful grounds
at their disposal. About 4 o’clock the party
again boarded the steamer and started for
the city, hut owing to the low water she ran
aground near the island, and the result was
a vexatious delay. Iu consequence of this
the steamer did not reach the city until
about half-past seven o’clock, and was
therefore unable to make her regular trip to
Tybee at 6lx o’clock.
The Concert at the Cathedral.

seen that the programme embraces a
splendid selection of the choicest gems of
sacred and operatic music, and t.he reputa
tion of the singers who have
so kindly volunteered Is guarantee
of a delightful treat. A large number of
tickets have been sold, and the demand for
them continues. The concert will undoubt
edly be one of the grandest musical events
in the history of home musical talent, and a
very large audience wlil assuredly grace the
occasion with their presence.

to say that the firemen of Charleston are
anxiously awaiting to bear from the Savan
nah firemen on the subject of a tournament

Oglethorpe Barrack*.
The Secretary of War, with the approval

make the foundation perfectly secure. This
spot is some three huudred and fifty feet
south of the river front.

THE BIGGEST PLUM YET.
IMPORTANT ACTION OF THE
CENTRAL DIRECTORS.
Intense Excitement In the Market—
Fat Dividends for the Central and
Southwestern Railroads—The Port
Royal Controlled by the Lessee* of
the Georgia.
Tbe intense excitement which has pre
vailed in this city tbe past week subsided
yesterday on the announcement of the ac
tion of the meeting of the Directors of the
Central Railroad, which was held in the
morning. All uncertainty is now quieted,
and it may be assumed that operations
will settle down to a hard pan basis. The
foreshadowing of the probable action of the
directors In the Morning News of Wednes
day, In the article on the stock market,
proved pretty correct, land were clearly
shown not to be exaggerated.
While the directors were In session the
liveliest excitement prevailed among brok
ers, speculators and the business communi
ty generally, and tbe adjournment of the
meeting was awaited with feverish anxiety.
At last their patience was rewarded and
the report that the meeting was over caused
a general gathering of the anxious ones in
the vicinity of tbe bank, and as the direc
tors made their appearance they were eager
ly accosted. In a few seconds the news
was circulated that a dividend of 4 per cent,
and 40 per cent. 6crip had been declared.
On the strength of this announcement we
hear there was a sale of four hundred shares
to one party in the city at SIBO, which of
courge Included the dividend and 6crlp.
The most Important work of the meeting
having been discussed the previous day, tbe
attention of the directors was given to the
consideration of the amount of dividend to
be declared. We understand that several
were in favor of a 4V£ per cent, cash divi
dend and a 50 per cent, scrip, but the action
giving 4 per cent, dividend and 40 per cent,
scrip to the Central, and per cent, divi
dend and 32 per cent, scrip to the South
western was made unanimous.
The directors, we understand, were actu
ated in this course by the following rea
sons: The Central Railroad,during the vears
between 1872 and 1881, fell short 37 per
cent, of paying to the stockholders the
regular 8 per cent, dividend, the money
earned being applied to the purchase of
property and Improvement of the road and
its equipments, and new acquisitions. There
is new good and remunerative property in
the possession of tbe company, and tbe
amount to be paid out to them in cer
tificates is simply reimbursing the money
then withheld.
This matter is further explained in the
preamble and resolutions,which were unani
mously adopted, and a copy ot which we
give below:
Whereas, The great depression in all
business throughout the country from the
year 1873 to 1877 caused so large a falling
off In the receipts of tbe Central Railroad
and Banking Company of Georgia as to ren
der it necessary to withhold for the time all
dividends from the stockholders, In order to
liquidate outstanding indebtedness and to
make such betterments as a revival of busL
ness would certainly demand: and,
Whereas, Renewed prosperity and strict
economy In the management of the com
pany’s affairs, and the use of profits with
held, have added to'these betterments, con
sisting of many miles of connecting roads
built and purchased, the substitution of
steel for Iron rails, the purchase of many
engines and cars, the establishment of effi
cient lines of steamships to Northern ports,
with the requisite wharves, sheds, cotton
presses and warehouses, which have added
much to the value of the company’s prop
erty, by enlarging Its working capacity and
by giving Increased facilities to the public,
as well as much economy in the execution
of all business connected with the road; and
Whereas, The stockholders have had
nothing to represent their dividends and
income, thus withheld and appropriated;
therefore, be it
Re*ob<ed, That certificates of indebtedness
be issued, bearing date July Ist, 1881, to the
holders of stock this day of the Central
Railroad and Banking Company, at the rate
of S4O per share, and to tbe holders
of stock of the Southwestern Rail
road at the rate of $33 per share,
the said certificates .to be payable In the
currency of the United States, at such time
as may be determined on by the Board of
Directors of this company, but no certifi
cates shall be called in for payment until
July, 1891. Interest at the rate of six per
cent, per annum shall be paid < n the certifi
cates of indebtedness on the first day of
January and July of each year until the date
fixed for their redemption, ad notice of
such Intention to pay shall firs: b s published
in one or more of the public gazettes in Sa
vannah, Georgia, three months In advance
of date fixed for such payment.
lUsdved, That the certificates of indebted
ness shall he for SIOO and the multi-pies
thereof, and when any number of shares
shall produce a fraction, that the fraction
be paid in cash, or If the stockholder de
sires he shail have the privilege of adding
to the fraction a sum of money sufficient to
make SIOO and receive a certificate therefor.
Retolved, That the certificate of Indebted
ness 6hal! pass only by transfer on the books
of the company and that the cashier have
prepared the necessary books, and that the
transfer books be closed during the months
of June and December each year to prepare
for the payment of interest due thereon.
THH PORT ROYAL KOAD.
The report which has been In circulation
for several days that the Port Royal Road
had been leased by Col. Wadley, is not
exactly correct. The lessees of the Georgia
Railroad, who are Col. Wadley and Col.
Alexander, representing the Central
and Louisville and Nashville roads, have
been purchasing the bonds of tbe Port
Royal Road, and have acquired sufficient to
give them the control of that line, which
will be run ia the interest of the grand
combination. This road is considered an
important link in the system, and hence
was secured.
THE STOCK MARKET.
The market, as was natural under the
circumstances, opened feverish at the clos
ing quotations of the previous day, Cen
tral 170 bid, 171 asked. Sales were made
during the morning as high as 175, and
after the announcement of the divi
dend there was one sale at 180.
Tne market closed with Central at 126 bid
127 asked, ex dividend. There were salee
of Southwestern at 148, but the close was
120 bid 123 asked, ex-dividend. Georgia
was firm and In good demand, closing at
180 bid 181 asked. Augusta and Savannah
123 bid 124 asked, ex dividend. Memphis
and Charleston 80 bid 82 asked.
Improvement* In tbe Central Prop*
erty at Macon.
The following article from the Macon
Telegraph of yesterday in reference to the re
cently completed car works building of tbe
Central Railroad at that point will be read
with considerable interest at this time:
“ * * * The car works are now In full
operation, and both freight and passenger
cars are being rapidly turned out. The
works are putting into service new freight
cars to carry 40,000 instead of the old 17,000
pound vehicles. Three or four combination
express and mail cars are in process of con
struction. They are being fitted up in the
most substantial manner, and will be su
perior to anything ever put upon the line.
The timber for four more lie at hand, aDd
only want of space prevents work upon
them being begun. A large force is busily
ergaged In putting higher trucks under the
old freight cars as fast as they come in.
This has been rendered necessary by the
plans upon which the Western cars are
built. They stand seven Inches higher from
the ground than the Central. We learn
that President Wadley has always opposed
this change, believing that the nearer the
weight to the ground the easier it is pulled.
When the changes were begun, he remarked
to Mr. Raoul: ‘Well, you all have beat me
on the car question, but if I had been
younger I would have fought It out.’ He
would.
“In the front of the car works there Is
some of the prettiest specimens of work we
have ever seen. Two newly finished sleep
ers, built enrirely In these works, stand
there. The outsides have a bluish black
polish upon them equal to that on the finest
piano or buggy, while the insides, trimmed
with French walnut, butternut, cherry and
walnot, are marvels of elegance. Every
joint fit wiffi a precision and closeness that
renders tt almost Invisible to the naked
eye. The arrangements are all ad
mirable. In one end is the gentleman’s
department, where double stands and cool
ers, closets, seats for smokers and adjusta
ble card table may be found. Iu the other
Is the ladies’ department, fitted with equal
care and taste. A Baker heater, Invisible to
the passenger, with its ccil6 and lints of
pipe, preserves In winter a comfortable tem
perature everywhere. Convenient lockers
complete the end arrangements. Between
the two departments are the elegant sleep
ing Derths. Those two cars when complete
will cost together about $19,000.
“Beyond these car shops anew building
has sprung up. It Is the machine shop for
the car department. By its side an engine
room and a forty horfe power engine will be
placed to run the works. This will relieve
the pressure upon the machine shops. It Is
for these Improvements that the road re
cently obtained an encroachment upon
Seventh street. The new machine ehop is
55x155, and two stories in height.
“Passing out of the yard, the reporter
came upon a neat car, Just overhauled and
newly fitted. It was No. 37, a car which,
twenty years 6ince, was considered so fine as
to warrant Its being shipped out West to a
great fair for exhibition. It was too large,
however, to get through a tunnel on the
route, and was returned. The road would
scarcely ship it out now for exhibition.
“These works, and the Central Railroad
works generally—those enclosed in the yard
—furnish employment to about six hundred
men, including engineers, firemen and
wood passers. It Is estimated that nearly
four thousand people are dependent upon
the works for sustenance. No other fact
could show tbe Importance they possess.”
A CONVICT’S DEATH.
An Investigation Ordered The
Testimony at tbe Coroner’* Inquest
—A Divided Jury-Tbe Verdict.
Yesterday morning It became known that
the body of John Andrews, a colored con
vict, had been brought to tbe city on Tues
day evening from the camp at Cuyler
swamp, and was carried to the jail. There
were several reports In reference to his
death, but Inquiry developed the following
particulars:
Andrews, who It will be remembered was
lately tried in the Superior Court on the
charge of murder, having killed one Alfred
Shellman in a barroom on Brvan street,
and who was acquitted, went on an excur
sion in the early 'par l of May last and occa
sioned considerable rumpus on the steamer.
Several of the colored parties who were
threatened and assaulted by Andrews made
complaint to Magistrate Molina. Warrants
were issued against him, and he was arrest
ed and turned over to the City Court.
Oa the 16th of May he was arraigned for
trial in the City Court, and was found
guilty In three different cases, and was sen
tenced by Judge Harden to $25 fine and Ahree
months on the chain-gang in each case. He
bore the reputation of being a desperate
man, and had been In numerous difficulties
previous to the tragical affair with Saellman.
He was sent to join the brigade in Cuyler
swamp, and after two weeks’ 6tay there was
brought back to the city a corpse. His
character as a desperado was well known,
and It was thought that wholesome servi
tude ou the chain-gang would benefit
him, as it was not known that
his hands were too tender for manual labor.
The manner ot his death, and his conduct
previous to his demise may be gleaned from
the testimony taken by the Coroner, and
which we publish in full. If there has been
unnecessary cruelty or harsh treatment In
the case tbe law should severely punish the
offender, aDd although the Coroner’s jury
have under the evidence considered It their
duty to make a very serious charge
against one of the convict guard,
we deem this not the time to
make full comment upon the matter.
A more thorough Investigation
will be had before the grand jury of the
Superior Court of the county, and possibly
a trial before a jury will be tbe result.
Hence It were gratuitous to express any ex
parte opinion, and while deprecating and
censuring any unnecessarily harsh treatment
towards the unfortunate creatures whose
passions and frailties lead them to convict
camps, we deem It unwise to say aught that
might prejudice or bias public opinion.
As soon as Col. C. C. Casey, one of the
County Commissioners, who has taken a
great interest in the work done by the con
victs at the swamp, was apprised
of the death, he ordered the body
to be brought to the city, and, notify
ing the Coroner, requested that an inquest
be held and a post mortem examination be
made, in order that everything in connec
tion therewith might be learned. The con
vict system Is under the supervision of the
County Commissioners, and we are sure
that if there are any evils they will be
promptly remedied.
THE INVESTIGATION.
Upon being notified,Coroner Sheftall.with
his usual promptness, secured a jury and
proceeded to the jail, where the body of
the deceased was lying, and all the wit
nesses being summoned, the inquest was
opened. In view of the interest manifested
in the case we append herewith a copy of
the testimony in full:
TESTIMONY.
Charles Logan, sworn and testified: About
11 o’clock yesterday morning, May 31st, 1
was at work at the convict camp; I saw one
of the guards whipping John Andrews; he
was tied, lying on the ground, still chained.
The name of the guard who did the whip
ping is Sam Heeser; in my opinion I think
the deceased received about one hundred
licks. I went up the hill about four or five
times, and each time the whipping was go
ing on. The deceased was held during the
whipping by one Ed. Houston, also a con
vict. Tbe distance over the bill was about
seventy yards; each way and each time
I noticed that the whipping was
being continued. 1 have been at the con
vict camp about one month, during which
time never noticed the deceased have any
difficulty with the guards. I believe It was
on May 31st that deceased received a whip
ping; very frequently the prisoners are
knocked down with a hickory stick. I have
been knocked down several times myself,
as the lumps on my head at the present
time will show.
Cross examined: 1 saw the guards whip
John Andrews; 1 did not notice any signs
of blood on him; after the whipping he was
too feeble to do any work; he died about
ten minutes after receiving the whipping.
[The witness here exhibited some scars
on his person, which he asserted were the
result of whippings he had received at the
camp.] I was whipped because the wheel
barrow turned over ; the deceased cried out
loudly while being whipped. The strap
seemed to be a piece of harness about two
fingers wide and half an inch thick; the
strap will cut wherever it strikes.
Henry Whitehead, sworn and testified ; I
have been on the chain-gang about six
months. [Witness did not identify the strap
shown as the one used for whipping the
prisoners. There was another, something
like a hitching trace. The strap shown was
the one Mr. Friend generally carried, and
was not the one the whipping was done
wit,b.J I have seen two or three men flogged
since I have been on the chain-gang. Charles
Houston told me that the deceased received
one hundred and ten cuts with the la6h. The
Chief asked how many cuts he got, and the
above answer was given, whereupon the
Chief replied “It was all right.” The de
ceased was tied at the time of the whipping.
Charles Houstou told me this on my bunk
freelv on his own account, without my ask
ing him to do so; the deceased, I think, en
deavored to do his work. I have often
noticed the guards cutting the men during
the time they work. The strap I allude to
is about two fingers wide and one finger
thick, and had some wire at the end run
ning lengthwise. Houston told me this,
and also did Jerry Wright and John
Brown.
Charles Houston, sworn and testified:
On Monday, SOth of May, John Andrews
was sick; the guard told him to proceed and
do the be6t he could; the deceased replied
be would do so, but about an hour later he
again fell, and said he could not work any
more; the deceased was told to toll his wheel
barrow aside ; deceased replied to 8. Heeser
that he (Hesser) “thought it all right to
have meu out there at the camp to kill
them;” at the same time he said, “G—d
d—n you, I will get even with you.” On
Tuesday morning, about 10:30 o’clock, An
drews again complained of feeling
bad, when he was told to move
his wheelbarrow aside in the 6hade; Mr.
McCrohan ordered John Andrews to be
brought into the shade; when going from
the planks to the tree he recognized Mr. 8.
Hesser bringing prisoners from the jail; he
became very passionate and made angry
gestures at Mr. Hesser; after this Mr. Hes
ser ordered Andrews to be whipped; he
gave the deceased twenty lashes; he was
not tied at tbe time of tbe whipping; John
Andrews . died with his shackles
on; the spot where the whipping oc
curred was covered with stumps; at the
time when Andrews was carried over to the
shade trees he made several threats at the
guard, Hesser, and on the strength of this
received a lashing. It is not customary to
strike the convicts with a switch durlDg the
time they work. The deceased did not at
tempt to rise during the time he was being
whipped; have not spoken to anybody about
this matter; Charles Logan was whipped on
Saturday. The time between the
whipping and the time ot his
ddhth was, 1 think, about an hour and
a half. The deceased was whipped with his
clothes on. Monday evening, during one of
his fits, Andrews rolled down the bank and
surged himself on the root of a tree at the
bottom; he then came up to the top of the
hank and laid down, whereupon two hands
(Frank Jenkins and myself) were ordered to
carry him to the camp.
Jerry McCrohaD, sworn and testifled-
The said prisoner was taken with the
fit on Monday, May 30. I cannot state
the nature of the fit. He would stagger and
Irequently fall over stumps; In my opin
ion he did this to avoid working. Mr. S.
Hesser frequently upbraided him for his
conduct. Although called upon to do his
work he would uot perform the same until
Mr. Hesser threatened to whip him. I sent
the boy to camp, thinking he was sick. I
believe Mr. Patterson gave him Borne medi
cine. Yesterday morning I went back to
work, I found the deceased at work. Some
time after my arrival he asked me to allow
him to leave off wheeling and to
give him a hoe and permit him to dig.
I would not permit the change, fearing the
deceased might cut the chain and make bis
escape. Mr. Fennel, who was in charge,
noticed during the morning of Tuesday,
the 31st, that the prisoner continued to fall.
He called him under a tree, and as the pris
oner showed no signs of a willingness to
continue his work he gave him about
twenty two strokes with a leather strap. I
then had him brought under the shade of a
tree, made him lie down, and shaded his
body with a wheelbarrow. About the time
the hands were through eating their dinner
the boy who was with the prUoner at the
time of the whipping reported that John
Andrews was dead. This occurred about
two or three hours after the whipping.
Whenever a man is sick It is the duty of the
overseer or guard to report the case to the
County Physician, Dr. Bulloch. The doc
tor always visits the convict camp twice a
week. If a man is very sick the guard com
municates the fact immediately to the pby
syclan. We generally take the work off a
man If he Is sick In our opinion and act as
above stated. This man was only a short
while In the camp. The exact time can be
learned by referring to the records. The
deceased threatened to have a fit. We
judged that he was feigning. The County
Physician had visited the camp
once or twice during the time.
Nothing was said to Dr. Bulloch abOQt the
deceased. He would take his meals just as
regularly as any one in the camps. The de
ceased might have been whipped once or
twice thU week with a brier. I
account for the wound on the right side
on the theory that the prisoner fell down
several times, and that he rnc’t have In
jured himself during one o 1 these falls.
This wound was never noticed until atten
tion was called to it by the attending physic
ian at the Coroner’s Inquest. The deceased
was whipped the last time with
out clothing, on the bare back.
The deceased, John Andrews, died with
shackles on. He was changed to the wheel
barrow. The chains were about six or eight
feet long.
STATEMENT OF HESSER.
Simon Hesser, the guard referred to in
the testimony, made the following statement
voluntarily:
To-day two weeks ago I took the deceased
out on the road and thoroughly Instructed
him regarding his duties; 1 always do so with
every prisoner; having given him a wheel
barrow, he complained that his hands were
too soft, and requested other work; I then
gave him a grub hoe and took him to
my own squad, so as to allow him
an opportunity to get accustomed to work.
Friday, after he entered the convict roll, he
again complained of not being able to stand
the work; he would frequently drop off of
the run, pretending to be sick; I noticed
him as he fell off the run; I
thereupon jumped from the planks
and gave him several cuts with a rod ; he
jumped up, grabbed the SDade and made
several strikes at me; I jumped aside; by this
time the Chief came along and took the spade
from him ; I then struck him with a strap;
upon his promising to work the same as the
rest, let him go; several days after the
above occurrence the deceased complained
of being sick, when Mr. Fennell gave him
some medicine; he (Andrews) would pass
out of the ranks about fifty times a day,
and I several times found out that
he Was trying to kill time, and that there
there was no necessity for his leaving the
ranks. * * Last Monday afternoon he
started his old capers again; several times
he fell In a grubbing hole; I thought he was
pretending to play 6ick, whereupon I or
dered him to move off the run. I went In
town that night to bring out some prisoners
in the morning; as soon as I arrived at the
camp again In the morning I was informed
that Andrews was attending to his work;
Immediately upon his noticing my return he
again began to stagger and fall down; the
Chief called to him to come over
to where he was; Andrews
replied he was unable to do so. I ordered
Houston to bring him to where the Chief
was; after consulting together, we con
cluded to try a few lashes. I gave the
deceased about twenty or thirty lashes with
this strap; I had him carried over on the
other side and laid him down; this was
about 11 o’clock. [ had tb* deceased shaded
with a wheelbarrow. He died about half •
past 2 o’clock Tuesday afternoon.
This was all the testimony taken, and the
jury retired for consideration. After due
deliberation upon the facts presented, the
jury returned the following
verdict:
We, the undersigned Jurors, flud that the
deceased, John Andrews, colored, came to
his death from cruel treatment at the con
vict camp at Cuyler swamp, Chatham coun
ty, Ga.. and, in our opinion, at the hands of
Simon Hesser, and, moreover, respectfully
request the County Commissioners to make
such change in conducting said camp as to
ensure the bumaDe treatment of prisoners.

A BERIOV9 AFFRAY.
A Party Shot with His Own Pistol
in the Hands of a Constable.
Yesterday morning application was made
to Magistrate Molina for a warrant against
Robert Wall, lately appointed a Constable,
living on the White Bluff road, about six
miles from the city, on the charge of as
sault with intent to murder. The warrant
was issued and placed in the hands of Con
stable Endres, who immediately started for
Wall’s house, but, on arriving there, found
that Wall and his wife had come to the city,
and up to dark no arrest had been made.
The particulars of the case are these:
Adjoining Wall’s premises lives Theodore
Raderick, a young man well the
city, who is keeping a grocery store
at that point. Wall has no fence
around his premises, and some cows be
longing to Raderick, finding the foraging
good there, have naturally been trespassing
upon his grounds. This incensed Wall,
who, it is stated, beat and ill used the
cows. Raderick on several occasions
remonstrated with him, and urged him to
put up a fence,but to no purpose. The result
yesterday was a difficulty. Wali abused
Raderick and threatened to cut his heart
out, and finally made an assault on him
with a pistol (which had been previously
loaned him by Raderick). As Wall ad
vanced with the pistol, Raderick,
who is a much more powerful man,
closed on his antagonist, and seizing him
by the arm, endeavored to wrench the
weapon from his grasp. In the struggle
the pistol was discharged, poln ing down
ward, and the bullet entered Mr. Raderick’s
leg just below the groin, ranging towards
the knee, inflicting a painful and serious
wound. A messenger was at once dis
patched to the city for a physician, and Dr.
Fernand responded. He probed for the
ball, but was unabie to find it, and made the
patient as comfortable as possible.
The wound is not considered fatal or dan
gerous, but is very painful. The affair is
regretted, as the parties are neighbors, and
had formerly, it la stated, been on pleasant
terms. Mr. Wall will probably be arrested
to day and placed under bonds to answer
the charge.
