TRUSTEES IN A BAD PLIGHT.

Sold the Sanitarium.
Atlanta, June 28.—The legislative Joint
committee, appointed to investigate the
of;airs of the state sanitarium, or lunatic
asylum, which has been in session at the
capitol since Monday, filed its report with
Gov. Candler this afternoon.
Trustees Josephs and Hunt are severe
ly scored for their acts in obtaining money
from the institution by selling it goods
and otherwise, the report being in line
with tlie charges Intimated against these
trustees during the session of the legis
lature.
Senator rndertvood and Representative
Park of Green, Newton and Copeland
compose the committee, which began its
work at Mllledgevlile May 1, -taking testi
mony there and compiling the report since
reconvening at the capitol last Monday.
The following extracts from the report
wtil show the rather sensational state of
affairs at the sanitarium in connection
with Trustees Josephs and Hunt:
“We very much regret that the evidence
which we file with this report discloses
the fact that more or less friction of dis
agreement exists among the trustees of
the institution. The line of disagreement
seems to be well defined, separating three
trustees, long in office, from seven, whose
terms in office date back a few years
only. This we find to be unfortunate and
more or less hurtful to the state's best
interests.
Trustee Hunt'* Graft.
“The committee linds that in 1895 the
law relative to the state sanitarium was
compiled in pamphlet form, covering four
teen pages. A compilation was made by
Hon. W. H. Burwell of Sparta, Ga., Mr.
T. M. Hunt, then and now a trustee of
the institution, contracted with Mr. Bur
well to do this work for $66.66. On the
26th day of April, 1895, Mr. Hunt collected
the sum of $250 from the steward of the
sanitarium for this service, filing a receipt
Uierefor.
“We further find that Mr. Hunt paid to
Mr. Burwell $66 66 of said $250, and Illegal
ly appropriated the balance, namely,
$185.34, to his private use. We unhesitating
ly condemn this conduct on the part of
Mr. Hunt as trustee, and urge that legal
proceedings to compel the return of said
sum of money, namely, $183.34, to (he state
treasury, where it legally belongs, bo had;
and that the legislature lake cognizance
of said trustee's conduct in said matter.
The committee further finds that Mr. Hunt
as trustee received sums of money from
the Institution us follows:
“At one time for professional service, SSO;
on one other occasion, $25; and that dur
ing the year 1898 he was paid $25 for ser
vices and expenses in going to Macon, Ga.,
to purchase mules and wagons for the in
stitution. in view of these occurrences, the
committee recommends legislation making
it criminal fur any trustee, officer or agent
of the State Sanitarium to directly or In
directly accept or receive money or any
thing of value for services other than the
compensation or salary therein provided
by law.
Charge* Against Joseph*.
“The committee finds that Adolph Jos
ephs. of Baldwin county, who was ap
pointed trustee for the sanitarium in De
cember, 1894, has since his appointment as
agent for Fried & Cos., wholesale dealers
in merchandise, and for other merchants
who were frequently successful bidders for
the sale of goods to the sanitarium, shared
In profits on sali-s made by tha company
whose agent tie was. In several Instances
Mr. Josephs received 50 per cent, of the
profits from the merchants he represented
as agent. The evidence shows that in some
cases the successful bidders made profits
ranging from 20 to 25 i>cr cent., 50 per cent,
of which Mr. Josephs received.
“The evidence clearly shows that while
Mr. Josephs was in the employ of J. R.
Fried A Cos. of Macon, Go., on a salary
of $2,400 per annum, that company was
frequently successful in selling large
amounts of goods to the sanitarium. That
Mr. Josephs, as the agent of other bid
ders. made frequent sales of goods to the
institution, amounting in the aggregate to
thousands of do.lars. In the last named
Instances, the evidence does not disclose
the amount of profits made, but does dis
close the fact that Mr. Josephs received
a commission on the profits made by the
merchants he represented.
“The committee con.lemn* the practice
on the part of Mr. Josephs and recom
mends legislation prohibiting such conduct
In the future on the part of trustees of
the institution or other officers or agents
thereof.”
MOST OF THKJI REJECTED.
Savannah Criminal.’ Applications
for Pardon Did Sot Go.
Atlanta, June 23.—Gov. Candler's action
on a number of pardon applications was
posted at the executive department to
day.
Out of a batch of eleven applicants
only one received the clemency of the
chief executive. This was James Harris,
convicted in Glascock county of attempt
ed arson and serving a life term in the
penitentiary.
The pardon board recommended the par
don upon the application of the trim
Judge, the solicitor and the jury, the con
viction having been secured upon circum
stantial evidence, and it now appearing
that Harris wus not guilty of the crime
at all. The applies lions rejected, upon
recommendation of the pardon board, be
cause there appeared no good and suffi
cient reason, were as follows:
Albert Franklin, Will S. Moore, Simon
O'Neal, Carroll and Long Holts, J \
Brown, Oscar Turner. John Usher, Harry
Harris and George Groover.
DROWN WAS NOT INDICTED.
Commissioners Found Nothing i„
Charges Against Him.
Atlanta, June 23.—The grand jury had
CJpunty Commissioner 'Brown up for dis
cussion again to-day upon the charge of
having used the county’s material and
workmen to improve bis private property,
but no indictment was returned. The
grand Jurymen made a personal inspection
of < ommissioner Brown’s place, gnd it
appears that they found nothing there
to justify the sensational charges that
were made during the recent campaign
and out of which the Investigation before
the grand jury resulted.
Deul in Augusta Real Estate.
Augusta, June 23.—Another big real es
tate deal was closed to-day. Mr . Maurice

Savannah Yonn* Ladles Honored at
St. Joeph'* Academy.
Washington, Ga., June 23.—For the
twenty-third time the spacious halls of
St. Joseph’s Academy were filled with
flowers, and the flash of organdies, rib
bons and laces; the shady piazzas re
echoed to. the sound of laughing voices
and sweet music.
On Tuesday morning an oral examin
ation was held, showing that the young
ladies were exceedingly proficient in their
studies. Bishop Becker complimented
them highly on their recitations.
In the art department, presided over
by Sister Sacred Heart, a most beauti
ful display of crayon work, paintings of
all kinds and embroidery was exhibited.
The china painting was especially at
tractive to all lovers of beautiful things.
Thursday afternoon followed the mu
sicule, with its wel! rendered music tail
ing. recitations and beautiful choruses.
Wednesday night came the graduating
exercises. The graduates of this year
were only two. making up in quality what
was lacking in quantity. They were Miss
Stella Gallagher, Savannah, Ga., and Miss
lallian Harris. Atlanta, Ga. Miss Harris
is a daughter of Joel Chandler Harris,
who was present to see his daughter grad
uate.
The programme of Wednesday night
was as follows:

Awarding of honors.
Bishop Becker then delivered the prizes
to a large class of girls. The list filled four
foolscap pages. The names of the Savan
nah girls who won prizes are as follows:
Miss Stella Gallagher, modal, diploma, and
crown, also honor for excellence in music;
Miss Winnie Moran, for scholarship, Guii
martin gold medal; Miss Fannie Dickinson
prize for improvement In writing.
Where all was so good, it is perhaps in
vidious to mention s|>eoial parts, but it
is allowable to say that the "Milkmaids
Song and Drill'' with its shining tin palls
and fancy steps, was specially taking.
"The Angels of Buena Vista” also was
very beautiful, with the groups of fair
girls, In antique costume, ln their various
graceful attitudes. Most striking of all,
however, was “The Wise and Foolish Vir
gins,” an adaptation of the parable of the
“Wise and Foolish Virgins,” and of Ten
nyson's “Late, Late, So Late, Ye Cannot
Enter Now.” The mournful plea. “Oh,
let us In, that we may kiss his feet.” an
swered by those who have entered in unto
the marriage, "Too late, too late, ye can
not enter now," haunts the memory still.
CAIN STEVENS HANGED.
He Killed Marshal Osborne, of
Clinnncey, Last January.
Eastman. Get., June 23.—Cain Stevens
was hanged here to-day for the murder of
Marshal Osborne of Chauncey, Ga., on
Jan. 31.
Seldom has a man ascended the scaffold
with such composure and calmness as did
Stevens. He talked freely, giving warn
ing to the colored people, saying that
cards, whisky and women had brought
him to the gallows.
The prisoner was taken from the Jail at
11 o’clock and escorted to the gallows, a
half mile distant, by the sheriff and guard.
The trap was sprung at 11:30, and the pris
oner was pronounced dead in thirteen min
utes from strangulation, as attested by
the attending physicians, J. D. Herman
and T. J. 1~.
Will Stevens, his accomplice, who was
convicted of the same crime, was respited
for twenty days. Great crowds of peo
ple came to witness the execution. It be
ing private, however, only a few were ad
mitted. Perfect order prevailed.
