Bix negroes were drownid jeflfrdfjr af ternoon abortly after 4 o’ckNk near Hie middle of the Savannah river and I moat direct l> opposite the East Broad street dock. The men were employes of the Naval Store* Yard Sea Board Air Line Pier No. 3. on Hutchinson'S Inland. They were on their way across the river to their homes in the city, when the boat. which were ten men, and whi h was In wvosequeine low in the wafer, wa- strtn k broadside on by a heavy swoll from the steamer Harry O. Day and swamped. Four of the men when they saw that the boat was going under Jumped overboard M id kept afloat until they were picked up by boats. The six men who were drown ed. however. w*ent down with the boat, so many of hem clinging to one side that tha lioat was turned upside down and drifted down the river In that position. The watchman on the Horry G. Imy w iio was aeeti left night by a Morning reporter, e*id that the slhimrr was on her pay to her landing place from the Gordon wharf. In passing the East ]trraid street dock, he saw a number of bateaus, nod on** of them w.s loaded with passengers.

The Hen Board Air Bine gives free passage in the steam launch to all of Its workmen lo*h coming amt going, but many of th* men. In fact the majority rather than wall a few minutes for the launch which would land #h*m at the Bui! street dock, prefer to cross in row boat# to the Hast Broad street dock which is nearer their homes In order to make 4 " 1 these trips back and forth as cheap ns possible the boats are filled as full ns i possible and a small pro rata is charged by the boatman.

Lu*h!ln-Rturtrv4nt receivership rase In Ihe Superior Court took a some what sensational turn yesterday, due lo the removal by Mr. Ouille Bourquin, who claims lo be the purchaser of the good* taken by Mr. Sturtevant from the store of Mr. last week, of a por tion of these goods In apparent della nee of the order of the court, placing all of Ihe goods and asset* of the firm In possession of either party In the hands 'of the tem porary receiver. The Issue, as stated In yesterday's Morn ing News, is over the settlement of a partnership between Messrs. McLaughlin and Sturtevant, which the latter attempts to bring io a focus by removing a large share of the goods from the store oc cupied by Ihe Arm. This action. Mr. Mc- Laughlin. contended In Ills petition to the issurt. to be unwarranted and illegal, and also Ihe further alleged action of his part ner In disposing of the goods at a figure named and refusing to turn over the re ceipts. He accordingly applied to the .■ourt and secured the appointment of Mr I. I > I Roe ho as temporary receiver, with a restraining order enjoining Mr. Slurle vani from further Interfering with or dl* posing of the assets pending the action of the court. The la'er trouble seems to have been due partly to a misapprehension on the isirt of the receiver, who agreed lo a sug gestion by Mr 81 unevsnl that he take •in Inventory of the goods to corroboraie the one furnished by Bturtevant lo Mr Meletughlin. and see whether there were any articles not included in the Inven tory or which were Ihe private proiwrty of Mr. McLaughlin. The goods removed by Mr. Riiirtev.ini ha.l been stored In the rear of No. 17 Fon gres.- streel, west, and Mr. larß-sne made an engagement to meet him there al 11 o'elork When he arrived at 11:30 o'clock he found Mr. Qullle Bourquin heeling the good- Into wagons for the purpose of mo\jng them to a store under Odd Fellows' Hall. He regarded (hi* pro ceeding as somewhat Irregular, hut was al loss how lo proeeed until hi* attor ney* arrived and Informed him that the order of the court positively forbade In terference and plaeed all the aasels In the possession of Ihe receiver. Both the attorney* and the re elver en tered a decided protest against Ihe re moval of Ihe goods, hut Mr. Bourquin an notinced that he had purchase.! the goods previous lo Ihe flilng of ihe |tellllon for a receiver, and that he had legit advice to Ihe effect lhal he had full right to make such disposition a* he pleased of them Mr. Stflricvant • pr/eent and apparent ly-consenting lo ihe temoval of the goods though he claimed at (he heating Itter lhal he was only present for (he purpose of pointing out such goods as were the personal property of Mr. McLaughlin, The contention attracted a crowd, and there was quite a lively scene In Ihe lane for a time Seeing that there was noth ing to he seComptlshed by argument, ihe attorneys for Mr. Melaiughltn withdrew and prepared a statement to the court The result was that go attachment was Imtnedlaiely Issued for Ihe goods, and an order was Issued for the arr/si of Messrs. Bturtevant and Bourquin for con tempt ot court. The hearing was set for I o'clock, at which lime all of the parties appeared with their attorney*, Mr. W. F. Blater representing Messrs. Bturtevant and Bourquin Mr Blat*r freed himself of any suspic ion of contempt hv stating that while he had leen Ihe attorney for Mr Bturte vanl ho had not represented Mr Bour qtiln. and it was not hy his advice that the removal of the good* had b en undor tak n. He also stated that h* had not seen a copy of the restraining order until the affair In <".lngres* lane and had not had time to consider It. He asked for fur ther time on this ae ounl and alo to pre pare an answer lo the proere.llngs In be half of hls ellnt and requested a post ponement until in o'clock to-day. . Mr McFaugnlln's attorn y* preferr-d to go ahead with the case, hut were wining lo agree to a postponement provided Ihe Roods were plaeed in iwxsesslon of He eelver L.-Kocht To this Mr Slater was not dlp*“d lo agree, offering various object tort* as to why hls client should not surrender potßesslon of the gods. After a brief conference with hi* clients, how ever. he announced that lie would go ahead with Ihe hearing, ttnd was given until 5 o'clock to prepare th - answers of hls clients. In making rop y for Mr. Bourquin. Mr Slater stated that hls client had received no notice of the pending receivership, that no paper from the court had been served upon him and that he had not been made a party to the receivership: that he had bought certain personal property from Mr. Sturtevant fbpt. 7, and that this probably was in hls |M-ar*ahlc pose salon at the time the order w granted. Any Intent to violate the order " the court or to show contempt was denied. Mr Sturtevant'* reply and nied that he had disobeyed the order of th* court In any way and further denied the truth of 'he allegation* to this effect contained In Ihe attachment pro-eedings. The evidence was then begun. Mr La- Roche wns put on the stand and narrated the Incidents of**hc morning occurrence V take an Inventory of th( goods removed hy Mr Sturtevant under the Impression that Mr. Sturtevant was to remove the goods nnd turn over the money which he claimed to have received for them. He was Informed a llllle later hy hls lawyer* that the order of the court placed the good* In hls possession. He found Mr Bourquin removing the goods The latter declined either to erase removing the goods or to turn over the keys to the receiver. A cer tified copy of the receivership order was exhibited lo Messrs. Bourquin and fkurle vant, but they refused to let him have llie corals He saw three or four wagon load* removed. Mr. Bourquin made a very Interesting witness. He said he had bought the goods from Sturtevant expecting to enter Into a partnership with him Bturtevant. he said, expected to buy Mdaiughlin's share of the stock and then he and Bourquin were to go Into partnership together. "You expected to move everything out of the store -hen except Mr McLaugh- Itn?" humorously Inquired Judge Falll gant. !n arswer to que*(i-ms the witness said t*at he oily entered Into negotiations wltii Bturtevant for the purchase of the goods Monday morning, when Bturtevant came to hi* house about 7 o'clock Just as j he was getting up This was th* first time th* matter of the partnership had been broached to him They concluded the j trade In a few hours, th money being ! raid over In Mr, K, L Neidllnger's store He bough! the good* without looking at them, taking Bnirtevant's word that they were ** t prerentrd The purchase price was Mflh. to pny which he drew MW) from tlfe bank, lock MO out of hla pocket and **ve hie due bill f-r th* remainder. Mr Pttirtevsnt to:d him th* th* firm had dissolved. *nd that he. B'urterant. had taken hi* rhar of the goods.
