ARRESTED ON A BAD CHARGE.
Lawrence Ward to bo Tried for
Attempted Murder.
Lawrence Ward (colored), was rearrested
yesterday on the authority ot Solicitor Gen
eral Fraser on a charge preferred by Samuel
Fraser for assault with inteat to murder.
The arrest is the result of a shooting affray
in Jones street lane, near Habersham street,
on the night of Feb. 22.
Thursday of last week Wnrd was arrested
oil a warrant issued from Justice Davidson’s
court, and after a preliminary examination
the prisoner was discharged. Fraser, who
was shot in the leg with a 38-ca fler re
volver, began to have some trouble with his
w< ur.d and bad to bo sent to the hospital,
and the solicitor general, after hearing the
statement of the injured man, t! ought it
best to have a fuller examination, and a
second warrant was taken out in Justice
Russeil’s court yesterday, the prisoner
giving bond for bis appearance.
Ward’s version of the affair is that he
went to the house of Peter Ryan, where the
shooting occurred, and found Sam Fraser
uuder the influence of rum and abusing
Sarah Barnes, a colored woman. When
Ward stepped in the door Sam left the
woman and grabbed Ward roughly, and
threatened to kill him, roacbing for a re
volver. Ward tays he took his own pl-.tol
from his coat pocket to protect himself,
when Fraser made a grab for it, and in the
souffle for the weapon it was discharged.
Fraser, however, managed to wrench it
from his hand and, as Ward fled from the
house, Sara fired two parting shots at him.
The testimony of Peter Rvan in Justice
Davidson’s court, Ward says," corroborates
this, and Ryan says that when Fraser came
back in the house he discharged the weapon
in the room. Sarah Barnes and Pendy
Washington, two colored women present,
are witnesses for Ward. Ward says that he
paid a doctor S3 to take the ball out of
I'rnser’s leg, and sent him $2 50 and was
willing to b wrd him until he recovered, as
Fraser had acquitted him of shooting him
and taken the blame on himself.
6UPT. HEGE RESIGNa
He Retires from the Central for a Bet
ter Place North.
Superintendent Levi of the Main
Stem division of the Central has resigned
to accept a position with a road in the
north. His successor is said to be a Vir
ginian, but General Manager Gabbett said
last u ight that the vacancy has not been
filled.
Mr. Hege went away from Macon a few
days ago on a five day’s leave of absence
and it was understood then that he would
not return. Yesterday the general man
ager received Mr. Hege’s resignation. He
Ims r ot had an opportunity to select a man
to fill the place, but the position will be
filled in a short time.
Mr. Hege came to the Central when Maj.
Belknap took charge of the road. His head
quarters were then in SavanDah. He met
the people and made many friends. When
Mr. Gabbett assumed the general manager
ship of the system the superintendent's
headquarters wore removed to Macon. The
superintendent made friends among the
business men in Macon, and they regret to
see him leave. Mr. Hege is now in Michi
gan, mid it is understood that’the new.po.4i
tiou which he nccep’s is a much better one
than t at which he held with the Central
railroad.
$3,500 FOR A BROKEN ANKLE.
Henry Cheeney Sues for SIO,OOO and
Gets a Third of it.
The damage case of Henry Cheeney (col
ored) against the Ocean Steamship Com
pand occupied the entire day in the city
court yesterday, and the jury returned a
verdict for plaintiff last night for $3,500.
Cheeney was a longshoreman in the em
ploy of the steamship company, and April
2, 1888, while stowi ig cotton in the hold of
the steamship Nacoochee, a bale of cotton
fell on him, breaking his right ankle, and
a compound fracture of the bone was in
flicted. He sued for SIO,OOO damages,
claiming that the cotton was thrown down
when it should have been lowered, and gross
negligence and carelessness was alleged on
the part of the defendant company in not
having someone at the hatchway to give
proper warning at the timo of the aceidont.
The steamship company, when the
plaintiff closed its testimony, moved a non
suit, which motion the court overruled.

POSTAL SERVICE IN CHINA.
How tbe Mall is Kent Over That Vast
Empire.
From the yew Yorle Sun.
A bent the most curious institution in
China is the postal service. It includes two
quite distinct system*, one for the govern
ment officials and the other for every one
else. The dispatches for the government
are carried by mounted postmen with toler
able swiftness. Their carriage and deliv
ery are under the direct supervision of
tae ministry of war in Pekin. The people
at large are not allowod to send mail bv the
official carriers. They are obliged to trans
act all their postal business through a much
slower medium.
In every Chinese city there are several
postoffices, which receive and deliver in
their respective districts the mail matter of
the general public. Each guarantees the
safe delivery of everything intrusted to its
care, and in case of loss of valuable papers
or goods reimburses the sender without de
lay. The contents of every package, how
ever, must be exactly declared at the time
of mailing, as the postage varios with very
trivial variations of value.
The postmen of this branch of the mail
service walk or ride on asses from station to
station. With some eighty pounds of mail
matter a postman covers a out three miles
au hour. The minute he arrives at the end
of his route he transfers his burden to tho
shoulders of another postman, who, what
ever the time of day and whatever the
weather hurries off to deliver it at the next
station.
To keep himself ready for emergencies the
Chinese postman never fuddles his wits by
overeating. He always takes very light
meals. “Eat himself only seven-tenths
full,” the Chinese say. He is usually a man
of fine physique and less afraid of ghosts
witches, etc., than forty-nine out of every
fifty of his fellow countrymen. In fact, an
applicant for admission to the service is
generally subjected tea kind of civil service
examination of his courage in withstanding
tbe horrors of supernatural phenomena. If
he stands the test without quailing and
proves that lib has not incurred the
enmity of any bad spirit which might
interfere with him in the discharge
of his duties. he has taken a long
step toward procuring his appointment.
This sigular condition for admission to the
service is universally considered t.. be quit®
proper, for the average Chinaman is so
afraid of spirits and the dark that the
slightest noise by the wayside at night
would cause him to drop whatever he was
carrying and dart off like a shot to the
nearest settlement.
An ordinary letter may be sent 150 miles
or more for about 8 cents. Thirty per cent,
of the potsage is collected in advance from
tbe sender. This amount covers the expense
of transportation, and is a guarantee
against fraud on the part of the sender. The
other 70 per cent, is collected from the re
ceiver and represents the profit ol the ser
vice.
The postmen often carry very valuable
mails. Traders intrust to thorn drafts and
silver bullion without hesitation. To pro
tect tbe most important mails smali guards
of soldiers are often used, or troops of fight
ing civilians who have especially trained
themselves to fight mail robbers. Three,
four or five of these civilians are always
ready to fight at least a dozen highwayman.
The manner in which they prepare
themselves for 6uch uneven combats
is an elaboration of a pugilist’s training in
punching the bag. From the roof
of the empty shed in which the practice is
taken hang on ropes ten heavy sand-bags.
The man who is learning to be a guard
stands in tbe midst of these bags, while his
instructor, on the outside, sets them to
swinging. The man am mg the bags then
strikes out right and left with his fists for
the purpose cf punching tho bags away
from him. As goon as he learns to keep all
the l ags in motion without letting them
touch mm he is pronounced ready to go on
the road to knock out mail robbers.
COST 70 CENTS EVERY TIME.
The Wear and Tear of Material Caused
by Stopping a Train.
From the New York Star.
Bitting in the Hoffman house last night, I
heard C. C. Rainwater, chief engineer of
the Wabash railroad, discussing the ques
tion of railroad management. “Did you
ever consider,” said he, “what is the actual
cost of stopping a train? I have been in
the railroad business since I was a boy, and
the question never seriously occurred to me
until the other day in a lawsuit at St. Louis
when the question came up. John C. Gar
rett, general manager of the Wabash, testi
fied on the stand that the cost of stopping
an ordinary passenger train at a way sta
tion was 70 cents.
“Being cross-examined, he admitted that
a certain train running between East St.
Louis and Toledo, was paying his company
about $1 per mile, and, being further ques
tioned as to the number cf stops made on
the road, it was established thatjif it cost 70
cents for each stop, this paying train, as
Mr. Garrett called it, lost money to the
extent of twice its operating expenses The
decision of the jury in the case was based
on the conclusion that it cost about 50 cents
in wear and tear and time to stop an ordi
nary passenger train at a way station, and
I believe they were about right.”
BAIL AND CROSBTIE.
The Atlanta Journal says that a corps of
engineers has begun surveying the railroad
between Dahlonega and Lulu.
There was no quorum at the meeting of
the stockholders of the Coast Line Railroad
Company yesterday. Mr. Parsons was un
expectedly called away. Another call will
be issued for a subsequent time of meeting
for the election of directors.
The agent of the Erlangers is now in New
York, and negotiations,aie proceeding in
the great consolidation of the Cincinnati
Southern and East Tennessee railway sys
tems. It is understood at the headquarters
of the Cincinnati Southern in Cincinnati
that the deal is a certainty, and' th3 only
contingency is the consideration to be paid.
Already the officials of the Cincinnati
Southern are looking about for soft places to
fall when the consolidation is formally an
nounced.
The Griffin Call says: Judge Speer of
the United States court at Macon heard the
Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama
railroad case last May, nearly a year ago,
but las never rendered a decision. The mi
nority has been anxious for a decision, but
having faith in its case has waited patiently,
expecting every issue of the press to contain
the desired opinion. It has been rumored
that the decision was held back in order for
the case to be settled, and there was a rumor
in Griffin a day or two that a settlement of
some kind had been made, and that the
settlement probably involves the purchase
of the Chattanooga, Rome and Columbus
railroad, and also th? extension of the
Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama rail
road to Decatur. Mr. Searcy was seen
about the matter, and be says no settlement
has been made by his consent. Still he does
not deny that some of the largest minority
holders have, in all probability, sold to the
Georgia Central people.
