THE BLAME ON THB EMPLOYES.
The Coroner’s Investigation of the
Eonaventure Accident.
Coroner Dixon held an inquest yesterday
morning on the dead bodies of Daniel Green
and Robert Green. A jury was impaneled
and the inquest was conducted in East Sa
vanna!), at the home of the dead men. Six
witnesses, three negroes who were on the
bridge, and the conductor, fireman and engi
neer, were examined.
The first witness swcrn was August
Green. He testified that Alexander Green
and himself were on their way to a fishing
ground, and when on the bridge
they heard a w histle, Kid the ti ain cauie
up at lull speed. A gentleman was at the
station trying to wave it down. The train
came ahead, and Green turned and pressed
himself close to the fence, and the tram
passed. He looked after the train passed,
and saw David and Rjbert Green lying on
the track dead. Green’s brother and him
self were on the same side of the track, op
p site from the side on which the men were
killed.
Saui’l Green was the next witness. He
testified that about 6:30 o’clock he, with
August and Alox Greeu, wa3 coming from
Thunderbolt. He he rd u train corning
when he got on the bridge. He stood close
to the fence auu the • rain passed. When
the train had gone by he saw the two meu
lying on the track dead.
’ Alexander Green said that he aud his
brother were on their way fishing. When
he heard the train coming he stepped back
against the fence, and the train passed. Ho
heard a whistle blow when the train was
about 150 yards from him. He called to his
brother to come back, and he aid so in time
to save himself. Ho saw Daniel and Robert
Greeu on the bridge, on the opposite side,
aud saw them, after the train passed, dead.
The train did not stop after it passed over
the men.
R. D. Owen, the engineer, was the next
one sworn. He said that he had only about
ten minutes to come from Thunderbolt to
the East Savannah switcn. Ho made tnree
or four short stops at Thunderbolt, and
came on down to the picnic grounds. There
he was waved ahead by the conductor.
After he got to the curve he tfiew two long
and two short signals for the road crossing.
He saw no signal at the sta
tion, but saw some men
ahead. When he come up he saw that the
meu were stunding still. He blew the dan
ger signal. The men wore backed up against
the fence, two on each side. The fireman
leaned out of the window and waved his
hand and nallored at the men. They did
not move, but the oldest looked up and
laughed. They had time to get out of the
way.
The engineer said that it was the corner
of the car that struck the men. Ho could
not have stopped the engine if he had had
air brakes. The engine was hot provided
with anything but common band brakes.
The engineer saw a lady and gentleman at
the station, but they did not signal him;
besides, ho had,orders from the superintend
ent not to stop.
James Brown, fireman on tho engine, tes
tified that he saw tho men on the bridge
ana he tapped his bell. He did so to follow
the rule, not because he thought the meu
would not got off. He said that a danger
signal was blown aud the meu on the track
turned to look back. They moved very
slow. He told them to got out of the way;
they then backed up against the fence and
he saw no more of them.
The jury took the case, and, after an
hour, rendered the following verdict:
“We, the jury, find that Robert and
Daniel Green came to their deaths by being
run over by a train on the Coast Lino rail
road through the carelessness of employes."

extremely common aud is not only em

many of the smallest t oads, either in addi

VETERANB PAY THEIR RESPECTS.
They Paaa Besolutiona In Honor of
Gen. Johnston's Visit.
The Confederate Veterans’ Association
held a meeting yesterday afternoon for the
purpose of taking some action in reference
to the visit to Savannah of Gen. Joseph E.
Johnston. President McLaws stated to
the mem bes, upon calling the meeting
to order, that as many of the
members were out of the city it would
be impracticable to call upon Gen. Johnston
in a body. He stated, also, that he had
been informed that Gen. Johnston preferred
no demonstration. Io view of this fact a
set of resolutions had been drawn up. The
resolutions were offbred by E. A. Silva, and
are as follows:
Whereas. The city of Savannah is honored
by the presence of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston;
and,
Whereas. His stay in our midst is of so brief
duration as to preclude such attention and
courtesies as this association would honor itself
in extending; and,
W hekeas. As wo glance back through the
years that have passed to the stirr.ng hays of
1361-65 and recall to mind this great leader,
who possessed a genius so comprehensive that
it grappled intuitively every detail of the mil
itary situation, comliined with a patriotism so
sublime, pure, and heroic, that no surrender of
principle on his part, pa3t or present, has ever
marred his colei’s.
Whereas, This matchless soldier, this dis
tinguished private citizen, no less great iu the
paths of peace than in war, was ours, and is
still onrs, and all Confederate veterans’ who
have felt the mspiratiou of his genius and valor
in time of trial, we claim tho privilege of giving
expression to the sincere emotions of our
hearts; therefore be it
Bi s lived. That time can never dim or efface
the affection in which wo hold within our heart
of hearts Gen. JosephE. Johnston.
Besolved, That n copy of this preamble and
resolutions, properly authenticated, be placed
in the baud of Gca. Johnston before his depart
ure from our city.
President McLaws was chosen a commit
tee of one to have the resolutions engris-od
aud to deliver them in person to Gen. John
ston. Gen. Johnston will leave to-day at
noon for Washington. He came to Savan
nah upon an invitation from Col. and Mrs.
William W. Gordon. Mrs. Johnston and
Mi-b. Gordon are very iutimato friends, and
the general’s coming to Savannah was
to visit his old friends. He and Mrs. Gor
don visited the Telfair academy yesterday
morning, and the general paid a visit to a
number of his old friends in the afternoon.
AT THE THEATER.
The MaeCollln Company’s Perform
ance of tho "Mascot.”
The Mac Collin Opera company gave a
very pleasing performance of the “Mascot”
at the theater last night, winning the com
mendation of a large audience. Tho parts
of “Lorenzo,” by A. W. P. Mac Collin,
“Beppo," by J. L. Apple, “Rocco,” by E.
P. Smith, and “Bettina,” by Miss F. D.
Hall, had plenty of merit. Miss Hall es
pecially was impressive and pleasi-ig
in the title role of the
“Mascot.” Her singing of the gobble
duet with Beppo was encored, and was
unquestionably the vocal success of the
evening. If anything, too many "gags”
were introduced into the dialogue parts of
the opera. The libretto has sufficient in
herent interest to command the attention of
an audience without these interpolations.
Miss G. Brosche was excellent in sustain
ing the dramatic demands of the part of
“Fiametta,” but she lacks in tho vocal
strength to emphasize her work. The
chorus voices ware well drilled iu their
parts.
To-night the “Beggar Student” will be
presented. This opera is excellent, both
from a musical and scenic standpoint.
Col. Huebler’s Benefit.
A testimonial benefit will be given the
midget comedian, Col. Albert Huebler, the
adopted son of Mr. Herman Winter, at the
theater next Tuesday night, May 6. Col.
Huebler has become well-known in Savan
nah during the time he has lived here, and
is as large in popularity as he is small in
stature. He is a wonderful delineator of
comic character, and as a female imper
sonator he has few equals. In stature he is
forty inches. His smallness readers his
stage appearance more unique than that of
a larger person. Col. Huebler will be
assisted in his performance by
Maj. J. A. McGuire, the champion
swordsman, assisted by Miss Thornton, in
their acts of swordsmanship, cutting apples
in two on the bare head aud neck, and in
other feats. Mis3 Camille Boettger, the
charming vocalist, character and chance
artist, will appear in her repertoire of origi
nal songs. Harry Herman will give an ex
hibition of prestidigitation, aud Mr. Robert
M. Fletcher will give his specialty, “Poor
Old Bum.” Mr. James McKee, the Irish
comedian, will also take part in the enter
tainment. A number of well-known sing
ers from the city will assist also. The sale
of reserved seats is now in progress.
If Your Liver Reminds You.
Of its existence by dull pain or sharp twinges in
the right side, or beneath the dexter shoulder
blade, accept the reminder as a warning and
regulate the organ without loss of time, by the
use of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. The above
symptoms are usually accompanied by yel
lowness of the skin, constipation, furred tongue,
disorder of the stomach, sick heaaaeiie ar.d
morning nausea. But a reform is p. omptly in
stituted by the Bitters, the best possible substi
tute for calomel, blue pill and other super
potent and hurtful drugs, erroneously desig
nated as remedies for biliousness. Appetite
and digestion are restored and the bowels re
sume activity, when an impetus is given to the
functions of health by this sterling anti-bilious
medicine, which also has the effect of enriching
and purifying the circulation and fortifying the
system against malarial infection in air or
water. It is also highly beneficial for rheuma
tism, kidney and bladder troubles.— Adv.
