B Adams, when spoken to about the matter, said that he thought the city has authority to regulate the river traffic, or tha' at least It should hive It. 'lhere is no reason why the city should not have such authority," oi l Mr. \d-im>, "and If this has not leen gjvn it is due to an oversight. The R.i vannah river h Just as much a put of th* state of Georgia as any o*her of our territory, and any crime <ommltted there •an m* tried in our state courts. The na :iona; government has control of navigal)!* stream* for Interstate purposes, but ttd* do** not prevent the exercise of Juristic lion by the state " Mr. Adams manifested conai lerahle In terest in the matter and spent some time looking Into the subject. The result was to show that wffle the city has control of vessels and rafts in the river, not on ly In from of the wharves, but H || the way to Tybee, there Is nothing In th • barter w hich can be construed as apply ing to rowboats, we these will hardly com* under the head of "vessels." The Hy has a number of ordinance* regulat ing the movements of ve**e|a *n the river *nd the conduct of masters and crew* m regard to loading and other matters, but the rnwtK>at has evidently never been considered of sufficient Importance to be legislated upon. The section of the charter upon which the various ordinances applying to ves sels are based i* as follow*; "The said mayor and aldermen shall have Jurisdic tion over vessels and rafts lying in the river Ravannah between said city and Tybee and their respective crews." Mr Adam* eald this could hardly he applied to rowboats plying back and forth •••roes the river. "An amendment to the charter could doubtless he easily secured from the next legislature." said Mr. Adata*. * giving th** mayor and aldermen Jurisdiction over the small craft on the river, and I think it would b well to have sucji an amend ment, for this, as well as other question* which may arise. The over loading of boats on the river should certainly t*e put a stop to. as tt Is certain to lead to fur ther loan of life if persisted In." Coroner Goctte said yesterday thit all told twenty-one negroes have ihelr lives by drowning since the beginning of the terminal work across tho nv*/ Hi only counts five for the recent drowning, however, only that number of indies hav- Irg leen found. These arc all who have been drowned by the overturning of boats. The others were drowned by falling from Ihe wharves or from the bridge above the city while the work was In progress. <>n** negro was killed by b* tug < auc.it between a posher and a car. hut with this excep tion all the other fatal accidents since the beginning of the work have been Hue to drowning. Coroner Goctte Is of the opinion that Ihe negroes will learn caution from their re cent experience* and that they will not crowd the boats so freely hereafter. They will also be more on the alert to save themselves In case of an accident as was Instance*! in the second boot overturning last week when all the negroes scrambled ashore. Since the completion of the work across the river there hits leen on Increased movement of river craft of till kinds and hence the boat loads of negro workmen going book and forth arc more exposed to danger than was the race before the ter minals were put Into use. It t estimated that between Mo and 500 negroes make the trip to the Island dally. Including those employed by the naval stores and lumber men. as well s those tn the employ of the railway and terminal companies. CASK AA IS NUT Hi: Aim.
