Question Discussed but Not Acted
On. • ....
The Chatham County Truck Growers.’
Association held its regular monthly
8 ,. i iog in the city court room yesterday
, v . o'clock. Ip the absenoebf Ih-esidqnt
, 0. M K-. als the first vice president, Mr.
- C. ! • G. Fell, presided.
Chairman Henry Blun of the commit
jcc on latter roads laid before the asso-
C ia' ,a the resolution which the commit
had prepared, and it was then read
by the secretary of the committee, Mr. C.
p. liossignal.
After the reading of the preamble and
rev ,lotions there was considerable dis
cussion with regard to the needs of the
county for better roads and drainage.
Xht question of issuing county bonds for
the purpose of advancing road improve
ments and for speeding the work on the
drainage was discussed to some extent,
ami most alb of the members of
the association strongly favored in
cur!' rating something with regard to this
plan, in the resolutions. But it was con
sidered best for many reasons that such a
re. mmendatlon should not bo made by
the association, as it might more properly
come through other channels. The grand
juries, as is well known, are considering
acme recommendations on this line.
THE RESOLUTION AS APOPTBD.
After this discussion, which was en
tered into with much interest by all
present, tlio following preamble and reso
lution were adopted unanimously:
Ti t- committee appointed at your instineot
ltis to take Into consideration and report
upon the best plan tor improving our road
System and the necessary drainage, after
carefully considering the matter, beg leave to
report only upon the necessity for drainage
anu hotter roads, and present the following
pceaiuhleand resolutions to.vourassociation:
Whereas. It is shown by reports of the
surveyors and engineers that there are about
aw.ouo acres of land in the county of Chatham
which may be made subservient to cultiva
tion by drainage; and.
Whereas. The production of truck for the
markets ot the north is remunerative', and
the demand far exceeds the supply at certain
per,-.is of the year: and.
■ Whereas, it is desirable to add such pro
ductive labor to the population of our coun
ty; and,
Whereas. Hy drainago of the lowlands our
community will le much benefited in health
ahd our county in wealth: and.
Whereas. The force now in (he control of
the honorable board of county commission
ers is entirely Inadequate to ever achieve re
sults commensurate With no desirable uu end:
aud.
• Whereas. At the present time there are
large numbers of unemployed laborers ready
to work at low wages, it being lit to carefully
consider all benefits to be derived by under
taking public works of such value to our
community and so much desired by our peo
pie; thornier.*, be it
'Resolved, I hat this association do lav
those facts before the honorable board of
county commissioners ami the grand jury of
the superior court of Chatham county and
urge upon these bodies to devise the means
whereby shell good can I e accomplished,
and that this association pledge its support
to any measure that may be deemed proper
to carry out the work of draliax aud the
construction of good roads.
The resolations are signed by Messrs.
Henry iiluu, chairman; C. E. G. Fell. B.
b Wells, C. P. Kossignol, M. L. Exley.
ENTHUSIASTIC ON THE SCIMEOT.
The truck growers are in earnest and
are enthusiastic on the good road ques
tion. and they pledged themselves to sup
port any measure with that end in view
which is put forward by the grand jury.
On motion of Mr. C. P. Kossig
nol it was decided to furnish
a copy of these resolutions to the grand
juries of the two courts and to the county
commissioners. These bodies have for
some time been considering the matter of
road improvements and they will no
doubt bo interested to have the expres
sion of opinion from those who are most
deeply interested in the road question
from au economic standpoint. There is
no doubt that good roans and extensive
drainage mean a great deal to the truck
growers, and they arc all of one mind on
the subject.
Mr E. J. Kieffer was elected a member
of the association. Secretary M. E.
Fxloy of the association has received re
plies to his circular asking for the acre
age of truck planting in the county from
tanners operating about 2,500 acres. A
large number have not yet replied to tho
circular. On the basis of the replies re
ceived it is estimated closely that tho
acreage of truck plantod in tho county is
kluut 3,000 acres.

that the suit was brought to attack tneso
charters because they were granted bv
the legislature after the geueral act
authorizing the controller general to
issue such char.ers had been passed, has
settled the question of the charters of

helit the legislature had u perfect right to
graut them, even after the enacting of

that the legislature had no right to re
move from itself a power which the con

The Port. Royal and Augusta railroad,
it is said, is going to move its head
quarters in Augusta from the Georgia
railroad. It will return to its former

the losses is going to reduce oxpenses.
The Central has offered the Port Royal

figure than what the Georgia is willing to
accept, hence the change.

that President Cleveland had taken hold
of the matter, ordered Cedarquist’s re
lease, and that tho fine against him be
remitted, and that the officer who issue and
the order tor Sunday targot practico bo
himself arrested and tried for disobedi
ence of President Lincoln's order of No
vember. 1862, which has been the law of
the army over since.

IMMIGRANT3 COMING SOUTH.
Inquiries From Every Fart of the
North Pouring: in on tho Railroads
Baltimore, Md., Aug. 2.—The Manu
facturer's Record In its weekly review of
thebusinoss-condltions of tho south says:
“The railroad situation in the south
shows some improvement, and the re
organization and consolidation of many
lines into one strong combination, backed
bj- the strongest financial interests in the
country, is generally regarded as likely
to result in great good to the whole south.
No now lines of any great extent are
being undertaken, but a number of short
lines, as branch roads or connecting links,
are being pushed. Some of them will
open up very important mineral and tim
ber regions.
“Tho tendency of immigration to the
south from other sections is becoming
more pronounced, and one railroad re
ceives an average of 250 letters a dav
from northern and western people asking
for ioformation about the south, while
letters to the Manufacturer's Record and
Southern States Magazine show that even
as far west as California many people are
getting ready to move to the south. J. E.
Lockwood of the Kansas City, Fort Scott
and Memphis railroad, writing from Kan
sas City to the Southern States Magazine,
says: "Indications of a large emigration
from tire west to the south and southeast
are becoming plainer every day.’ ”
NEW INDUSTRIES.
“Among the leading industrial enter
prises reported for the week were a $300,-

A Poor Card and Threatening
Weather at Brighton Beach.
New York, Aug. 2. An exceedingly
poor card and threatening weather kept
the attendance down to small figures at

anything like a good contest, and only
four were in that to start with, while
the horse which was expected
to give Charade an argument.
Herald. was declared out early
in tho duy, leaving only Mary
Btone and Laurel to run against a
high-class animal. When the flag fell
Laurel too the lead and continued to the
turn into the stretch, where she was
passed by Mary Stone In the last six

ond race with Half Mine second choice,
but sho could do no better than third,
while Half Mine wan, w ith Wilmar sec
ond.
A lot of no account 2-year-olds were
seen in the third face, and they were
some time at the post before they got
away, which they finally did so an ex
cellent start. Red Top made all the run
ning and got the first place, with Van
brunt second bv a short nose from the
outsider, Fannie B. The fatorite, St.

AT SARATOGA.
Saratoga, Aug. 2.—Seven races wore on
the card to-day, and an extra one was
thrown in by some of tho jockeys them
selves. Owing to a peculiar error. Liza,
Dorga, Sallie Woodford and Necedah
broke away to a false start in the first
race. The others woro left staridingat the
post and the four raced around the
entire distance, five furlongs, the jockeys
apparently not knowing that the flag had
failed to go down Liza hail been tho fa
vorite. but when the horses went to the
post again there was a big hedge, Lux
getting most of the money. The wisdom
of hedging was proven by the fact that
Lux won easily.
Tho chief interest centered in the
fourth race, lor tho Montana stakes, in
which Lamplighter, Clifford aud Dr.
Hasbrouck and other cracks were
entered. Clifford mado tho running
to the stretch, with Dr. Has

FROM HOME.
Strange Story of the Disappearance of
a Millionaire.
From the Washington Post.
San Francisco July 31. —Among the pas
sengers who arrived on tho Belglc yester
day was 10. M. Byers, a rich iron manu
facturer of Pittsburg, who came in com
pany with Dr. Samuel A. Boyd, a physi
cian who has lately been traveling with
him. According to the stones circulated.
Byers had for some time been abroad tie
cause of ill health, sotno say because ho
was not in his right mind. But another
story lias it that Byers' brother, who is a
partner in the iron business in Pittsburg,
is Interested in keeping him abroad, there
being a couple of million dollars in it.
According to the story told by Byers,
he was shanghaied from his home two
years ago His wife was in great grief,
and bosought the brothor to give some
clew as lo tier husband's whereabouts.
This he would not do. She then engaged
detectives, supplied them plentifully with
money, and charged them to used every
endeavor to find hfai. They searched
throughout tho United States without
avail. A year ago they succeeded in lo
cating him in Japan. When the detec
tives arrived there, however.’Byers was
gone. Tho detectives seat to bring him
home followed him to Australia. China
and tho Hawaiian Islands. The sick man
was finally followed bn< k y> Japan.'
The wife’sdoteoftivu* discovered by this
time that Byors'brotber 'fjgii been using
detectives, and, filrtheruUiS* that he had
a detective engaged td travel with tho
missing man. Necessary legal papers
were procured and Mrs. Byers' detectives
took the invalid fa charge and started
buck with him All went well till they
reached Honolulu. There the detectives
employed by the brother attempted to
proiont them from coming any further.
They succeeded in getting away, however,
and there was no mare trouble until By
ers and tho detective arrived hero yester
day. After some, trouble betw ecu detec
tives repros nting the different interests,
Byers was taken east on lasi ißght’s over
land, thwarting the efforts of his brother,
who was trying to get out a habeas
corpus.
Mrs. Byers had her husband taken
from her in a peculiar way and by the
same brothor. He had been spirited away,
and she had found him and was attend
ing him in Ids illness. She stepped from
the room for a moment, and when she re
turned he was gone The doctor lit at
tendance had been brought over by the
brother, it Is charged, and ho, with the
attendants, disappeared with the patient.
Mr. Byers, the kidnapped man. is said to
be worth between 21,(310,000 and (8,000,-
000. He is interested fa extensive iron
works at both Pittsburg and Philadel
phia, and is tbo |>osacssor of much other
property.
