Newspaper Page Text8 MAY REDUCE THE RATE. THE TAX ORDINANCE TA3LSD BY THE COUNCIL. To be Taken Up at a Called Meeting. Tte Plan for a New Water Works P! 3n i_The Estimated Coat of En larging the Present Wona and of Erecting New Works on the Spring field Plantation—The Special Com rulttoe's Recommendation Alder Myers" Ordinance to Extend the Sidewalks- The city council had a lengthy session last night, and to the general surprise the tax ordinance fixing the rate of taxation at t * percent., after a second reading, was, M motion of Alderman Myers, laid on the table, ana when tae council adjourned it was subject to the call of the mayor. This is taken to mean that the rate may possibly be reduced when tho ordinance is again taken up. One of the most important questions be fore the council was the water supply, and in that connection Alderman McDonough submitted a report, supplemented by some items of interest in connection with the nn jrovement of the water works, which wore referred to the committee of the whole. THE SEW WATER WORKS’ COST. The report estimates that a pump of 10, 000,000 gallons per day capacity, with toilers and connections, will cost about $62,000, but by the time the pump is placed in position and tho necessary charges made, should the city continue its rapid growth there wall still be but n very narrow mar gin beyond the supply required, and soon the shortage of water will be just as grext as at the present time. The committee recommended that a 15,- 000,000 gallon pump be substituted, which will cost $75,000. The erection of this pnmp at the present works on the river, the com mittee says, will necessitate the laying of new 42-inch main from the works to ihe city, which, in its opinion, should be laid through the water w orks tract 1 and Jasper •ville avenue to Bay street, thence through Bay street to the city, s" that it could be protected and controlled, and be at all times accessible to the water works department. COBT OF THE PROPOSED MAIN. This main laid will approximately cost $63,380 per mile, the proposed line being from two and a quarter to tw j and a half miles. To properly erect this pump and its belongings at the present works and to con nect it with the already proposed conduit and reservoir or cistern will require, in all probability, anew engine and boiler house, the basement. >d which should form tho dry well of the cistern and foundations of the pumps, leaving the wet well, from which the supply of water isdrawn, located in the center. The committee says mat the pres ent l Hiding is totally unfit for the purpose in many respects, and the pumps at present are located entirely too high above the water level. THE SPRINGFIELD, PLANTATION W^LL. The committee says to locate the small pump at the new well on the .Springfield plantation will requite one mure well li„e the present one, 1,000 feet deop, and casting ?5,00u; t* o new sets of boilers, $0,000; one surface condenser and circulating pump at a probable cost of $3,000; at least a 20-inch forcing mam to reach far enough across the city to distribute this body of water iu the system of mains already laid, which will require 3,700 feet of 20-inca mam to connect with the 12-inch pipj on Whitaker street, and then 1,100 feet of 16-inch main to reach aud con nect with the 16-inch pipe on Aborcorn street, making 4,800 foot of forcing main at an approximate cost, laid, of SIB,OOO. With the buildings and specials to put such a plant in operation the committee estimates that it will cost in the aggregate a sum considerably exceeding 140,000, which is ton much to expend upon what in the end ie only a temporary measure. STAND PIPE recommended. Tile committee recommend a stand-pipe on the very best and most approved plan, -.vith a capacity of *500,003 gallons, and of sufficient bight to anord, at ail tunes, a gravity pressure of from sixty to seventy pounds ;o the square inch, which the com mittee says would enable the fire depart ment, at ordinary fires, to dispense with the necessity of calling out the steam fire en gines. liie approximate cost of such a stand-pipe is placed at *45,000. Tbo committee in closing its reoort said "ln view cf the fact that the demand for a better supply of water is daily increasing, ar.a that the present pumping machinery is already performing un amount of labor in excess of tuat for which it was designed, and believing the water question one of paramount importance at this tune, vour committee would respoctfull v recommend that plans and specifications be made at once, ar and the work be promptly and vigorously prosecuted of erecting a first-clsss pump ing plant and station on the site of the new well on the Springfield plantation, with a 42-inch rr 48-inch forcing main, running east ou Gwinnett s reet to the park exten sion, there to discharge into a proper stand pipe, located south of the confederate monument. To carry out the provisions cf this recommendation will consume no more time, if promptly acted upon, than will required to make permanent and satisfactory improvements in the present works. PROVISIONS RECOMMENDED. The supplemental items are ns follows: “Should any danger menace the suffi ciency of the artesian water, or the wells at any time show any disposition to prove a failure (which is not at ail probable), the supply of water from the river is still ac cessible by n tunnel of from two to three miles in length. “Atlanta has decided to take the water supply from the Chattahoochee, a distunce of seven miles. “Macon depends upon natural springs which are as liable to fail as ._o artesian wellf. •'Jacisonville depends entirely on arte sian wells, and has no river to fall back upon, and a great many other cities are in the same condition, too numerous to men tion. “No permanent improvement so far as quantity of water is concerned can bo made at the present works without increasing the capacity of the forcing main leading to the city. “One 15,000,000 gallon pump set up at the proposed new station will require at least two seta of boilers, and later 011 sup plemented by another set of boilers and two more 15,000,0u0 gallou pump-'. THE CHANGES REQUIRED. “Safety demands three changes, viz: One pump and set of boilers in operation, one pump and set of boilers for repairs and cleaning, and one in reserve, ready at all times for immediate use. By being thus reinforced, two pumps could be used m extreme cases, should anv such arise, and fi0,000,000 or 26,000,000 gallons of wat-r de livered in the city without subjecting either l L’ . dangen.us strain. These facts should be borne in mind from the very commencement of the work, and ample room allowed and arrangements made for ns o Qitiou cf su h machinery and im provement* as the public wants may de mand lor several years to come, without leving to nmko radical change* in the wuiaings a..d permanent parts of the plant."

THE SOUTH BOUND'S RIGHT OF WAV. Ti e ordinance granting the right of way to the S. uth Bound, as heretofore referred to in the Morning News, was passed with an amendment of a character making it obligatory on the part of the South Bound to grant the right of way over its tracks oa Bay' street to any other roads, hereafter to bn built to this city, which council may de sire-, and optional with the South Bound to grant the right of way to any roods row built. The pries fo be paid the South Bound by the company using its track is to be tixod by the mayor and board cf aidcrmen if the roads are unable to agree upon the price. Tho ordinance seliiug the terminal grounds was also passed, amended so as to reserve the right of way to connect the water works with the proposed sito of the new plant at the deep artesian well on the Springfield plantation. An ordinance was passed authorizing the street and laue committee to pave Bull from Liiierty to Harris, and Harr.s from Bull to Dray ton with asphaltuin blocks. A DISINFECTING BOAT. A res olution by Alderman Harris author izing the purchase of a disinfecting boat, to cost not to exceed SIO,OOO, met with some opposition, and was referred to the committee of the whole. Messrs. Cann and Carson seemed to think that more extensive wharves are needed more than adisinfecting tug. Alder man Harris said that with 400 feet of wharves and the improved facilities con templated from one to two vessels can be discharged daily, and that the wharves will lie of ample length. The tug, he said, is needed to put tho quarantine station on a par with that of New Orleans and othor seaports of the importance of this port. A resolution was passed authorizing the filling in of Wadley street near River street. Also a resolution authorizing the purchase of 1,500 feet of sewer pipe. Also authorizing tho drainagecommittes to build a terminal brick sewer through the Ocean steamship’s property near the mouth of the Ogeechee canal, between Canal and Biver streets. INVITED TO A STEET PAVING EXPOSITION. An invitation from the Commercial Cl ub of Indianapolis to send a delegation to visit the street paving exposition to begiu there April 1 and to last a week was read. The invitation was referred to the committee of the whole, Alderman Bailey favoring an acceptance and the sending of Alderman Harman, chairman of the street and lane cor, milt-ftp. to the Axnnsitinn LUIi.IIIIUtfc, vv) LUt; J I -Si lIOiJ, The Commercial Ciub says that all kinds of material used iu street paving will be shown in blocks of one square yard, the ob ject in holding the exposition buing to enable the people of Indianapolis t ) see, by comparison, wbat system is best tor paving its streets, and it desires that other cities may share the advantage to be obtained in obtaining knowledge on a subject of such vital interest. The ciub be lieves that more can be Earned in a day at the exposition than by a visiting trip to a dozen of the best paved streets iu the coun try, as the leading contractors of the coun try wiil make exhibits of materials and work. FISH VENDERS TO PAY A LICENSE. On the recommendation of the market committee, it was decided to collect a mar ket foe from ail fish venders in the vicinity of the market. The street committee reported adversely to the purchase of tae Southern Vulcanite asphalt plant. The committee of the whole reported that it is not expedient at this time to dedicate the water works'tract as a park, es petitioned for recently. The Harmome club was granted permis sion to extend a bay window four feet on Bull .street, sixteen feet above the sidewalk. Alderman Cann opposed it vigorously, and demanded the yeas and nays. His vote was the only one iu the negative. His reason .assigned was that it marred the beauty of a main thoroughfare. TO EXTEND THE bIDEWALKS. An ordinance by Alderman Bailey was read the first time, providing for extending the paving of sidewalks to include all that portion of the city lying between Liberty aud Anderson streets, including the south side of Anderson street, and East Bread and Wost Broad streets, including both sides of East and West Broad. Tho ordinauco proposes to divide tho paving district in five divisions, and com pel paving, or the same to be done by the city at tho expense of the property hoidei s. The divisions and time in w h ch paving is requested to be done in the ordinance a i e as follows: Hirst Division—Between Liberty aud Jones, including tho north side of Jones, sidewalks to bo paved by June next. Second Division—Jones to Gaston, in cluding tile north side of Gaston. Paving to lie done by July 1 next. Third Division—Gaston to and including the north side of Gwinnett street. Side walks to bo paved by Aug. 1 next. Fourth Division—From Habersham to West Broad, both sides of the streets, and from Gwinnett to and includin : the north side of New Houston street. To be paved by Sept. 1 next. Fifth Division—New Houston to and in cluding both sides of Anderson street from Habersham to West Broad. To bo paved by Oct- 1 next. 'i he usual number of petitions were re ceived and acted upon, a great deal of rou tine work was done and bills aggregating $22,58158 were passed for paymeut. TAKING DOWN THE OHUBH3R. The Southern Vulcanite Company Disposed of Its Machinery. Contractor Devlin began dismantling the Southern Vulcanite Company’s stone crusher ou the northwest corner of Vest Broad aud Stone streets yesterday. Tho engine was loaded on a fiat car ready for transportation, and tho crusher will be re moved and placed ou oars to day. Secretary Wallace Cunning of the vul canite company said last night that the out fit had been disposed of and will be shipped away shortly. It is understood that the Baldwin Fertilizer Company is the pur chaser. The company will remove it, it is understood, to Port Koval, to be used in the phosphate factory there. The engine is a very large one. and the stone crusher is the largest size iu use in this part of the country. When tho equipment has been shipped away, the Central railroad ’Fill run tracks into that part of the yard where an Armour refrigerator will be built there. At present the beef cars are unloaded on the other side of the depot. The southern part of the yard, it is understood, will now be devoted to beef re frigerators, or repositories for all western meut shipped to this market. Savannah Loan Association to Be Or ganized.

Ke Tries Savannah Under Another Name and Lands In a Charleston Jail. Charles H. Froster, claiming to be a de tective for the Savannah, Florida and Western railway, has got himself into trouble in Charloston. He went to the Arlington hotel there several days ago, and after spending two days he got out without paying hi3 bill. He leaded everybody up with his experience as aditective, and pro duced letters which he said were written by Supt. K. G. FTeming. One of the letters rend: To whom it may concern: That Charles H. Froster is an authorized officer at the Savan nah, Florida and Western railroad. He is given authority to arrest in any station of the road or on the road of this company’s prop erty. He is under orders of Capt. Murphy of Jacksonville, Fla. I remain, Yours respectfully. H. G, Fleming. It was written on ordinary note paper. Superintendent Fleming said yesterday he did not place his signature to such a docu ment Few railroad men will attach their signatures to papers of so broad a scope as “to whom it may concern.’’ They gene rally find out precisely whom it concerns, and they write direct to that person. This aroused the suspicion of the local detectives cf Charleston and they went to work on Froster. Froster’s first piece cf work was to run a negro in upon ja charge of trespass ing on the Charleston aud Savannah rail road, but the prisoner was promptly dis missed by the mayor, and after a con ference with the Charleston and Savannah railroad officials the fly detective was him self put in a cell. iu Feburary a stranger registered at the Screven as T. Robertson, “Savannah, Florida and Western railway detective.” The signature attracted bouib attention, and a good many wondered why a detective wished to make himself so conspicuous. - Robertson staid two dais, and his name was checked off. The clerk was unable to find where Robertson had paid his bill, and the presumption is that Robertson is Froster and Froster is Robertson, and a Savannah hotel as well as a Charleston house has been victimized by him. TO HAVE CHEAPER ICE. A New Factory to be Built and in Operation by May 1. Savannah is to have a uew ice factory. As the story goes the Gorie Company was to have taken the surplus of the Savannah Brewing Company’s ice plant. The new company is to be known r.s the Suvaunali Ice and Storage Company, and Herman Winter is to be its man ager. A 24-ton plant has boon built for tho new ice company by the Arctic Manufacturing Company of Cleve land, 0., and was shipped from Cleveland on the 14th. A force of skilled mechanics will come on to put it up, and Mr. Winter informed a Morning News reporter yester day that the plant will be in full operation by May 1. It is the intention of the new company to have ice delivered at about thirty-five cents per hundred. There are are two or three sit 93 in view for the factory, and by the time the men aud machinery arrive the site will have been determined. The ice is to bo manu factured from artesian water, and bv a process which, it is claimed, will make the product free from impurities. Death of William Franklin. William Franklin, clerk for Appel & Schaul. who was taken sick five days ago with pneumonia, efied night before lust. His remains were taken yesterday to Bul loch county for interment. Tiie deceased's father, Hiram Franklin, who canra down a day or two ago to see his sou, took the re mains back with him. Young Franklin was 22 years old.

Threrv Runs on Boston’s Errors In tfca Fit at Inning Give New York the Winning Hand—A Passed Ball in the Seventh Inning Brings in the Win ning Run—Fine Batting, Sharp Ease Running end Crack Fielding Mark the Features of tb9 Game. Those who failed to see yesterday's game of ball between the New York and Boston clubs are likely to attend many games be fore they see one so stubbornly contested, or with such brilliant features. The Giants won the game in the first inning by the three runs made on the Bostons’ errors, but the latter picked up later on and kept the score down. It ought to have been a white wash in the first inning, aud the Bostons could have then won, hut the grounds were slippery and new, and the boys didn’t get down to work until too late. The Boston* went to the bat first, and the first man flied out to left field. The second died at third, as the next two bat ters hit easy to second base. In this tuning the first man at the bat got his base on a fumble of the third baseman, another took first on a wild throw of the catcher after one man was out, aud a fumble at second base. A corking two-bagger to left field by Slattery brought in the three runs. AFTER THE GAME WAS WON . Both clubs failed to scote in the second inning, but in the third inning the second man at tho bat for Boston got first on a fumble at first, wus advanced to second, and came home on a passed boll. The New Yorks oculd do nothing in this inning, only one roan getting to first base, and on a fumble of a low ball, the next man at the bat being caught out by a long running catch in center field. In the fourth inuiug Boston got one man to first base ou balls, where he was left, the side being retired on the catch of a long fly in right field, Slattery, the right fielder, putting three out, ard one liner was caught after a long run, the play being cheered to the echo. The New Yorks were retired without a score in this inning, two out of three striking out to Daly, who was wildly applauded. THE BOSTONS’ SECOND RUN. In tho fifth inning neither side scored. In the sixth the Bostons got their second run cf the game, and but for the exc lleut field ing of Gore in center would have tied the New Yorkers, but he took everything that came in funning distance, putting two of theredlegsouton flies to his part of the field. The New Yorks started their half of the sixth inning hv haviDg two men retired on a double play at second and first base, and Gore retired tho side with a goose egg on a hit to Nash, who got the ball to first too quick for the great center fielder of the Giants. The New Yorkers couldn’t hit Daly with safety in this inning. In the seventh inning tne Bostons got one score and tied the game. With two men out Daly went to the bat aud rapped a two bagger, to the exo-erae delight of Gen. “Hi Hi” Dixwell, whose familiar cry of “hi hi” set the crowd i B thegrand stand to cheering wildly. O’Rourke’s fielding was the feature of this inuing, he being credited with two of the three put outs. The New Yorks got one run in the seventh inning by a passed ball, aud kept the lead to tho close of the game. RICHARDSON’S FINE WORK. Richardson, in left field, kept the score down, putting two men out oii long run ning catcher, one of which was said by old ball men to be the finest catch ever seen on the Savannah ground, and the “hi, hi,” of the Boston base hall enthusiast aud the cheering of the crowd was kept up for fullv five minutes. It was a run well from center to tho left field fence, and looked like it was good for a circuit of tho bases. No more runs were made. In the eighth inning the red-legs could get no farther than third base. One man got first on balls, stole second by a slide, and was caught napping A third. The New Yorks were retired in one, two, three order in this in ning, not a man beating the bail to first base. O’Day made short work of the Bostons in tho ninth inning, striking tho first two men out, and the third man Uiod out to Hatfield. The following is the score: NKW YORK. A.D. K. B. TB. HH. r.o. A. B.

Katie Putnam In “Honor Bound” Last Night—Two Performances To-day. Katie Putnam played “Honor Bound” be fore a good audience last night. Miss Put cam is a favorite in Savannah, and she re ceived an enthusiastic welcome. There must indeed be something extraordinary in this little woman to maintain, as she does so universal a hold on the affections of the people, which is especially marked among the ladies, whose pet she seems to be. It was the first time that she had been sem here in “Honor Bound,” and many were anxious to see the play. It is ontirelv dif ferent from her other plays. In it Miss Putnam makes the most of her part. Rhe is a bright, vivacious actress, with tender touches of womanly nature, and her acting, enthusiastic and genius-like, carries with it a power to control an audience. Hor sieg ing and dancing won for her enthusiastic applause. K.“ Honor Bound” will be repeated at to ilav’s matin o and to-night Miss Putnam will appear tu “Erma the Elf.” Little Adele Chaplin Dead. Adele, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Chaplin, died yesterday morning after an illness of a few hours' duration.

Billie Houston (colored) was arrested yes terday by Constable Coleman in Justice McDermott's office upon a charge of assault and battery ou Elizabeth Biker. The affray took place at a ball in the southern part of the city. Houston was released on bond. He said that the Baker woman and several other women j unified ou him, and what he did was iu self-dolense. He gave bond for examination to-morrow. A tramp entered the house of Justice Mc- Dermott, ou Indian street yesterday, and said that he was hunting his sister. lie said that she lived there and he was going to stay there. When told that his sister did not live there he became insulting, and was driven out. Ho got out on the street and armed himself with soveral large rocks, to hit the first person that came out. He re turned again at dinner, and walked into the dining-room, and had to be put out again. Mayor Fitler of Philadelphia has written a letter, in w-iich he says that ho is r.ot the vice president of the National Tool aud Lathe Company, aud is not in any way in terested in the company. The idea got out through the circulars sent out by Mr. Fitler, vice president of the company, to the newspapers and other parties that he was Mayor Fitler, and it was s> announced. The mayor requests the Morning News to say that he is not the man referred to, in asmuch ns be has received a large amount of c rrespondence from the south relative to the company, with which he is not identified. There is on exhibition at Thomas West & Co.’s, Broughton street, un oil painting, “The Spanish Cavalier.” Miss Katie Will iams of Atlanta is the artist, and her object in exhibiting the picture is to r cure its sale in Savannah, by means of a raffia, with the chances at $1 each. Miss Williams will make a personal canvass of the city, ami will undoubtedly secure the value of the picture, S2OO, She comes to this city highly indorsed by Gov. Gordon and the late Mr. Grady, and other prominent Atlantiar.s, and as an invalid father is deoendent upon her the chances will undoubtedly be rap idly taken.
