SUTHERLAND MILL IS
SCENE OF A BLAZE
Augusta was visited by another cot
ton fire yesterday afternoon between
4 and 5 o’clock. This fire was at the
Sutherland Manufacturing Company's
mill in what is known as the opening
room.
The opening room is just west of the
mill proper, and is adjacent to a ware
house that contained a large quantity
of cotton. It was a frame building and
contained about fifteen bales of cotton.
The fire, started in some of the ma
chinery.
When the department arrived they
found the mill hands fighting the blaze
but the fire was gaining headway, so
Chief Reynolds sent in a general alarm.
However, the fire proved not so very
difficult to handle, and soon the good
work of the firemen had the blaze un
der control, but it has destroyed the
warehouse and contents, which dam
age is put at b<#ween one and two
thousand dollars. Excellent work of
the fire department kept the fire from
the mill proper.
At 5:25 o’clock Wednesday after
noon the firemen attended a fire at
No. 26 Lewis Street, where sparks on
the roof had caused a blaze at the
house of Lucy Habersham, the dam
age being estimated at S2OO.
Box 76 was pulled at. 9:30 o’clock
last night, and the fire was found at the
house of Anna Greene, colored, 1505
Ellis Street. Sparks on the roof was
the cause and the damage was put at
$2.50.
At 10:40 last night somo one, un
known to the firemen telephoned that
a colored church near Walker was on
fire. The firmen had a run for noth
ing for no sign of a fire was at the
church, where services wero being con
ducted at the time, nor was there any
fire in the neighborhood. The fire
men have not the least idea who sent
in the phone call.
TO AUGUSTA FOR
SAFE-KEEPING
Sandersville, Ga. —Robert Kitchens,
a negro under sentence to hang here
on Friday, received a respite until June
2nd from Governor Harris yesterday.
This is the fourth delay in the execu
tion. Lawyers carried the case to the
supreme court of the United States,
claiming that, they could not get a fair
trial because negroes were not allowed
to serve tin Georgia juries but they lost.
Kitchens may be taken to Augusta for
safe keeping.
FEDERATION WANTS TO
ELIMINATE FLOATERS
The Augusta Federation of Trades
had Its regular meeting Wednesday
night and appointed a committee to
co-operate with a committee already
named by city council to work out
some plan whereby the floater may
be eliminated. The question of float
ers coming into a city to work, there
by keeping home people from securing
work, principally in the building
trades, Is a problem, and shortly after
the big fire advertisements appeared
in Atlanta newspapers for workmen In
Augusta, when all of the Augusta
workmen did not have situations. \
A great number have come without
knowing the conditions, for Augusta
workmen, so it Is stated, can handle
the situation at present.
The committee named by the Feder
ation Is composed of: Messrs. V. A.
Vawter, It. H. Jtanlel and Frank K.
Smith.
