Shipment Made by the Gran

Market—Savannah River Steam
boat I'o.'a Annual Meeting—Of In
terest to Seamen nntl Shipper*.
The steamship City of Memphis will
sail to-day with the record part cargo
of lumber for coastwise steamers. She
will carry over 700,000 feet of yellow
pine lumber for the Granger-Stubbs
Lumber Cos. Larger solid cargoes have,
of course, been taken by the coastwise
steamers, but probably none where
other cargo Is also loaded, as with the
Memphis this voyage. The last solid
cargo of lumber taken out by an Ocean
Steamship liner was on the steamship
Tallahassee.
Mr. Harvey Granger, the enterpris
ing head of the Granger-Stubbs Lum
ber Cos., reports a good demand for
lumber, and looks for an increase in
it steadily throughout the summer.
He believes building operations will
be upon a scale everywhere that will
call for large supplies of lumber. So
far during the calendar year steady
iiyjuiry, both foreign and domestic, has
been made for the product with the
promise that conditions are to continue
favorable. Asked as to conditions in
the country Mr. Granger said that ow
ing to wet weather milling operations
had been delayed some. Difficulty in
working was encountered in the woods
following the rains. With a spell of
dry weather this will be overcome soon,
however, when it is expected operations
will be resumed on their old time scale.
Local Sail Freight Market.
Sail freights are tending stiffer of
late. Owing to the better demand for
-tonnage it is reported that vessel
owners are holding for an advance,
and that charters cannot now be made
easily at old rates. Schooners Sa
vannah to New York want $5.25 to
$5.50. to Baltimore, $1.50, to Philadel
phia, $5.00, to Boston, $5.50 to $5.75,
and to Portland. $6.00.

KILLED bTwILLIAMS.
Ike Bearden Dead at Thnmnsvllle.
News of That City.
Thomasville, Ga„ April 14.—Ike Bear
den, negro, who was shot in a house
near this city Sunday night, died this
morning. The verdict of the corner’s
jury was that he had been killed by Jim
Williams, colored. Williams was ar
rested by Sheriff Hight and is in jail
now. There are three witnesses against
him.
Brice & Adams' store at Pavo, 18
miles from here, was entered yesterday
morning before day and the safe was
dynamited. The burglars secured SSOO
in cash. Three suspects were arrested
but as there was no evidence against
them they were discharged . The rob
bers are still at large.
Charles D. Smith, who married Miss
Tiny V. Turner in Thomasville on Aug.
12, 1900, and who deserted her and her
child in Valdosta in March, 1902,
after securing all her property, was
found guilty of bigamy at Monroe,
Mich., and sentenced to the penitentiary
for four and a half years. Since de
serting his wife in Georgia he has been
twice married, once in Monroe, and
thirty-six days later at Charleston. S.
C. The parties are well known here.
Mrs. Smith is of a good Thomas county
family. She is now in Moultrie with
her child and is working as a stenog
rapher.
NEWSPAPER SUSPENDS.
Stlllniore Enterprise Withdraws
from the Weekly Field.
Swainsboro, Ga., April 14.—The Still
more Enterprise has suspended publi
cation. Mr. E. W. Milner, who pur
chased the outfit from Baregron
Brothers a few months since, has sold
the material to the former owners
and quit the field of journalism. Edi
tor Milner got out quite a spicy and
interesting little sheet, and was liber
ally patronized by Stillmore's business
men. His reason for abandoning the
newspaper is unknown but it was
probably because he wished to enter
something more lucrative and less'
glorious. Stillmore is now without a
newspaper.
Mr. John A. Bell has been elected
chief of police of Swainsboro, and Mr.
A. L. Brown takes Mr. Bell's place as
health officer.
Dr. C. L. Samples, a prominent phy
sician of Stillmore, has written a card
for publication in the Wiregrass Blade
this week, in which he says that
smallpox has about disappeared from
that place and that anyone visiting
there would run no risk of contracting
the disease. Dr. Samples protests
against Swalnsboro’s keeping up the
quarantine against Stillmore, and says
that the postponing of Superior Court
on account of the disease having been
there was a mistake and will result in
loss to the railroads and merchants.
It is said that all smallpox patients
at Stillmore are recovering and that
there is no danger of a further spread
of th? disease. Swainsboro will prob
ably raise the quarantine in the course
of a few days.
