SAVANNAH October 3-Money, which
was sent here from Washington to pay the
poll taxes of the negroes, was appropriated
by the white Radical managers, who gave
the negroes bogus receipts. This swindling
deprived large number of negroes of their
votes. Great Indignation is manifested by
the negroes. Money was also collected from
the negroes to pay the poll taxes and the
same bogus receipts given.
