As some of the blocks are more valuable -hati oth°rs the fixing of the minimum bids was a matter which required the exercise of considerable judgment and care.

FOGARTY'S BOND FIXED. He will bo Released on $3,000 Bail - The Case Argued by Attorneys. Font-o'clock yesterday aftemoon was fixed by Judge Adams a- the hour for determin ing the amount of the new bond to be given for the release of young Thomas Forgarty, who has been confined in jail since his trial. The original bond was for $2,500, hut it was dissolved when Fogarty went back to jail on last Friday night. When the matter came up yesterday Solicitor General dußig nou moved that the bond be increased. The first bond was given before an exami nation hail been held ill the case, he stated, and added that the court had the right to assume that if the defendant was not innocent that there might 1 some justifica tion. Since then an examination has l>een held and the facts showed that the shooting of Kieffer was entirely without provoca tion. The solicitor claimed that §2,500 was in adequate for the new bond. He did not de sire to impose any undue hardship on the prisoner's friends, but lie wanted to have Fogarty in court next Thursday. Mr. Meldrim, in opposing an increase of the amount of the bond, remarked that the salient features of the case were known to his honor before the examination as well as since. It is pretty well understood, he con tinued, that the first bond was for $2,500. To increase the bond now would be to indi rectly suggest that there is something more grave anil terrible about the case than was formerly believed, and the effect would lie to prejudice the public mind ugainst the defendant. The prisoner’s father is a poor hard-working man. counsel added, and to require excessive bail would be to keep the defendant in jail when he should lie at home where he could receive the attentions of his family when sick. Mr. Meldrim con cluded by saying that the defendant had not shown any reluctance to stand the trial, and it was not to be assumed tliat lie would run away. When both attorneys had finished Judge Adams said that he would require a bond for $3,000 to be given. The bond was drawn up, but Fogarty was not released last night. NOT THE RIGHT PARTY. Case Against the Western Union Tele graph Company Dismissed. A suit brought by Robert J. Nagle for SIO,OOO damages against the Western Union Telegraph Company came up in the United States Circuit Court yesterday. In March. 1884, a Western Union messenger boy re ported to Manager B. F. Dillon that he hud been knocked down and robbed of three dis patches. The boy gave a description of his assailant mid Detective Wetherhorn was em ployed to find the man, and after working on the case a while re|xirted that he thought Nagle was the party wnntod. Home time afterward the messenger boy ha<l Nagle arrested for assault and battery. The matter was taken before the grand jury of the Chatham County Superior Court at the next term and aNtrue bill was found. On the trial of the case the bov failed to identify Nagle and the State aliamjuiied the prosecution. Suit was brought in the City Court for SIO,OOO damages, but was removed to the United States Court by the telegraph company. When the testimony for the plaintiff was closed yesterday the defendant moved that tho court should direct it verdict iu favor of the telegraph company. The grounds for the motion were that the plaintiff had failed to show that Nagle’s arrest was made by direction of the defendant, and further that it had not been shown that the prosecution in the State Court was malicious. Before Judge Speer gave an opinion on the point the plaintiff’s coun sel consented to have the case dismissed. Mr. B. F. Dillon, formerly manager of the Western Union office in Suvaunah, hut now tho superintendent of the Florida division, was a witness for the defense, but was put on the stand by the plaintiff. IN JAIL FOR PERJURY. Simon Mann, of Laurens, S. C., Ar rested in Savannah. Simon Mann, Jr., a drummer for a well known business house in this city, was arrested yesterday on the affidavit of Mr. Max Zarck, of Laurens, S. C., and on a dis patch from Sheriff Ballew, of that county. The arrest was made by Detective Weather horn. The party was taken before Magis trate Waring Russell, Jr., who committal him to jail to await the requisition of the Governor of South Carolina on the Gover nor of Georgia. The charge against Mann is that during the years 1833 or 1884 he committed perjury in thecuso of Simon Mann, Sr., vs. Simon Maim, Jr., tried in the Court of Common Pleas of Laurens county. The prisoner was defended by Messrs. Garrard & Meldrim, and it is probable that u writ of halietis corpus will be sworn out to-day. ENFORCING THE SUNDAY LAW. Philip Schwarz Fined $250 for Keep ing his Barroom Open. Philip Schwarz, proprietor of a saloon on Bryan sti'eet, between Whitaker and Barnard, was convicted iu the Superior Court yesterday of keeping open a tippling house on the Sabbath. One Sunday, about throo weeks ago, a disgraceful assault oc curred in Schwarz’s place and Dan Vaden was liadly beaten. Schwarz was before Mayor Lester and was fined $lOO. In pass ing sentence Judge Adams stated that he hod intended to make the tine $350. It is his purpose, he said, to put a stop to the viola tion of the Sunday liquor law if severe pen alties will do it. Inasmuch as the defendant had already paid $lOO, ills honor said that he would make the flue $250 and costs or six months imprisonment. STEAMERS ON THE BLOCK.

MRS. CAMPBELL DIVORCED. I She Gets Her 10-Year-Old Daughter and $BO a Week Alimony. After ten years of litigation the Campbell ! divorce ease lupt at last been settled. Mrs. Campbell was granted an absolute divorce from her husband in New York this week, l and was awarded the custody of her child, a daughter, now 10 years old and $BO a week [ alimony. The history of the case is well known in Savannah. Mrs. Campbell came here with her husband six years ago, and up to the past winter has spent much of her time here. Mr. Campbell is a wealthy wallpaper manufacturer on Forty-second street in New York. Twelve years ago he and Annie Louise Churchill were married. Mr. Campbell was reported to be worth half a million dollars, and the household expenses of himself and his wife during the first years of their married life were about $25,000 a year. In 1877'they had some trouble, w hich resulted in the breaking up of the household and the institution of a suit by him against her for absolute divorce. That suit was sent to a referee, who found in favor of ill's. Campbell. Then followed a reconcilia tion. Mr. Campbell and his wife lived together again until Decomber. 1881, when they came to savannah, and while here they quar reled and separated. Mrs. Campbell began proceedings against her husband here for abandonment and procured a judgment against him by which he was directed to give her $lO,OOO a year alimony. She had him arrested and compelled to furnish bail for his appearance. Mi's. Campbell re mained here for some time at the Pulaski House and her husband returned North and instituted proceedings for divorce. The case dragged along nnd appeals were taken from orders of the court until linaiiv the referee found that the husband’s charges had not been proven, but that those of the wife had, and that she therefore was entitled to a divorce and the custody of their child. The referee died soon after this, and another was appointed to decide what uniount of alimony should lie paid to Mrs. Campbell. He found that she was entitled to $BO a week. She appealed in order that this sum should he increased, set ting up the fact that her husband was a wealthy man, but the appellate court declined to change the amount. The court decided that Mrs. Campbell has the privilege of remarrying but denied the privilege to hei' ex-husband. A day or two ago there was recorded in the Registrar’s office in New York an in strument by which Mrs. Campbell releases her dower right to her husband’s estate for $2,500. Another instrument was recorded by which he in turn agrees to pay his wife for the support of herself and child the sum of $BO per week for their natural lives, and gives as security for such payment a mort gage to her on property on Forty-second street. In case of his wishing to sell any of the mortgaged property at any time, she agrees to sign a satisfaction mortgage after he has deposited SIIXI.OOO with the Union Trust Company as security for the weekly allowance.

ITS PURCHASE BY A SAVANNAH SYNDICATE FOR $25,000. A Stock Company with a Capital of SIOO,OOO to be Organized to Develop the Property What the Syndicate Proposes to Do-The Savannah and Tybee Road. A syndicate of capitalists has purchased from Capt. D. G. Purse the unsold part of Tybee Island formerly owned by the Scre vens, but which was 1 ought by Capt. Purse a little over a year ago. The syndicate is composed of 8. P. Hamilton, J. J. Mc- Donough, Herman Myers, John C. Row land, Henry Blun, J. 11. Estill, A. Vetsburg, J. P. Williams and others. The purchase, it is understood, carries with it certain interests in the Savannah and Tybee railroad. The price paid was $25,000. Although the iipers have not yet been perfected, the sale has been negotiated and the property will be transferred in a day or two. It is understood to be the intention of the new owners to improve the island by a thor ough drainage and by the opening of new roads. The Ocean House, which is included in the purchase, will either lie re built or anew hotel w ill be erected. To carry out the plans of the syndicate a stock company with a capital of SIOO,OOO is to be organized and the stock will be put upon the market . The purchase includes the King's landing tract on the north end of the island, but does not include the Tilton tract of ten acres, which is now owned by parties in New York, nor the Estill tract of about 300 acres. The United States government aLso owns about twenty five acres, making in ail about 350 acres which are not included in the purchase. The development of the island as proposed by its new owners and the completion of the Savannah and Tybee railroad will give to Georgia one of the most accessible and beau tiful seaside resorts on the South Atlantic coast. As soon as the property has been transferred and the company has been organized to develop and improve it, work will be commenced. It is probable that in stead of remodeling the Ocean House anew and modern hotel u ill he built. DUMB BRUTES’ FRIENDS. The Georgia Society for the Preven tion of Cruelty to Animals.

McArthur went to pieces in the last inning, and the Gulf City team piled up 5 runs, taking the game completely out of Savan nah's hands.

Savannah was in better trim and piayed carefully, almost too carefully, wearying the audience and causing the game to be called on account of darkness. Campau played a good game, and his home run was greatly applauded. McArthur was hit pretty hard, but showed good work in other respects. Mobile kept one run ahead from the tim'd to the eighth inning. The Savannahs held their opponents down with a promise of success, but lively batting in the last inning gave the game to the home club. The official score is: MOBILE. A.B. R. B.n P.O. A. E.

Fine Work; at New Orleans. New Orleans, La., April 28.—Ladies’ day was a Jonah to the locals, who lost their first game to Charleston to-day. There were 3,000 people present. Neither side bunched hits, but the bunching of two errors in the seventh inning gave Charleston its only run. Before this Charleston could not even get to second base, pitcher and catcher watching Ivises so well. Four times the locals died at third and failed to reach the plate once. There was some magniti cent fielding on both sides, particularly by Glenn. The game was most exciting to the end. Charleston got four hits, stole five bases and made two errors. New Orleans made six hits, three being doubles, stole three bases and made three errors. There were no passed balls or wild pitches. Dronby and Cnilds and Powell and Wells were the batteries. Each pitcher struck out three men, and the only base on balls was made oil Dronby. The game oc cupied less than one hour and twenty-five minutes. Sharp Playing at Nashville. Nashville, April 28.—The feature of the game to-day was Maul’s playing—pitching, batting and fielding. He made four hits in five times at the bat, struck out seven men and had seven assists to his credit. The game, as a whole, was as interesting and exciting ns any ever played here, and great ly pleased the large crowd present. The score by innings was: Nashville 01021 130 o—B Memphis 2 1 0 0 0 1 2 0 0— 6 Nashville,Maul and Nicholas. Mem phis, Black and Baker. Base hits—Nashville 13, Memphis 8.

Matters of Money and Management About Various Lines. ICiernan’s Wall Street Summary says: “H. B. Hollins & Cos. are desired by Mrs. H. 11. R. Green to contradict the statement that she lias been or is a purchaser of Rich mond and West Point Terminal stock. The statement is wholly untrue.” A Palatka (Fla.) special says that it is rumored about town that Maj. O. W. Brorn well, general freight and passenger agent of the Florida Southern railway, has tendered his resignation, and that J. A. Larnerd, Su perintendent of the Florida Southern, will fill the position until Maj. Bromwell’s suc cessor is appointed. Mr. Sully’s Party. Alfred Sully, President of the Richmond and Danville railroad, will start from Rich mond on a tour this week, coining as far South as St. Augustine, Fla. The trip will be a compliment to a number of Richmond ladies and Mrs. Logan, the wife of Gen. T. W. Logan, Vice President of the line, will rhaj>erone the party. Among the ladies will be Miss Amelie Rives, of Aaberpiarle, the talented young authoress: Miss Katie Logan, daughter of Gen. Logan: Mrs. Millie Allen, one ol the married beauties of Richmond; Mrs. Caskie Cable, a sister-in-law of the lovely Mrs. Richie, of Baltimore, and, like her, a beauty. Mrs. Rosalie Pleasants and Miss Cyran Williams, both of Richmond, are also in the party. Russell Sage is a well-known operator in Wall street, who is generally considered as “up to snuff.” Hence, it may have been quite natural that a countryman who read the papers recently called at his office and asked for a package of Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy. He discov ered his mistake, but he made no mistake in the article called for. This remedy, when applied with Dr. Pierce’s “Nasal Douche,” will surely and rapidly eradicate the most aggravated case of catarrh, with "all its unpleasant and dangerous accompaniments.

A report was in circulation through the street the past few days that Appel & Schaul, the One Price Clothiers, were selling for an advertisement thirteen tvvo-cent postage stamps for one cent and a quarter. The report being quite freely circulated a great number of people called at their store, inquiring forNthe thirteen stamps for the above mentioned price, at the same time laying down 2c. on the counter and asked how they were going to make the change, whereupon they were informed that they could not of heard exactly right as the One Price Clothiers do not object accommodat ing any one by selling them thirteen 2c. stamps for lc. and a quarter, not 1 Li*, but Ic. ami a quarter of a dollar, but what they do object to is for you to go elsewhere anil pay more money for anything in the Cloth ing, Hats, or Gents’ Furnishing Goods line than they charge, especially when you get the benefit of getting as good a lit as any garment made to order, as they have a first class tailor in the houxo for that purpose.
