A DEsPERA ATE ST Il UG0LE WITH
A FEENDs
A Young White Woman Found In.
sensible and Terribly Beaten I'm
Jones' Ffeld-Her Death Probable.

Yesterday morning about half-past eight
o'clock Policeman Russell, while patroling
his beat In Magazine ward, in the eastern
part Of the city, was accosted by lady,
who informed him that a white woman
covered with blood was lying unconscious
in Jones' old field, the commons east Of
Randolph street. He at once proceeded
thither, and found, short distance from
the fence enclosing the lumber yard,
the PROSTATE form of q young woman. Her
head was terribly beaten and bruised, and
her face was covered with blood. The APP
pearance of the ground for some distance
around indicated that there had been
fearful struggle between the woman and
her assailant. Her clothing was nearly torn
from her, and a number of severe bruises
on her person, in addition to the blow on
her head, which was Inflicted with some
blunt instrument, showed che had been
very roughly handled.
Policeman Russell at once obtained the
police wagon and had her conveyed to the
barracks, where DR.. Bulloch was summoned
to see her and responded very shortly. A
casual examination convinced him that the
woman was very seriously injured, and he
directed that she be conveyed to the Savan-
nan hOeplL2is Wnere sne was maue as COM
Portable as possible. Her condition was
very critical, and during the afternoon she
began to sink, and at midnight it was
thought would not survive until morning.
The woman was unable to give any ac-
count of the murderous attack, and after
searching inquiry only the following facts
could be elected: She was recognized
as Maud Taylor, who came here from Ohio
some months ago, and has been leading a
dissolute life, the name she was known by
being assumed.
Yesterday morning some parties living In
the vicinity heard a disturbance in the
field where the unfortunate woman was
found, but attached no particular import.
ance to it, thinking it was only a quarrel
between a man and woman, and so far as
could be ascertained, mo one proceeded to the
place to investigate the cause, but from the
meagre information CLEANED the supposition
is that the woman was crossing the commons
when she was attacked by some villain with
felOnious intent, and that she resisted his
assault, was overcome, and, after being
fearfully beaten, was left in dying condi-
ton in the field.
No clue whatever is had to the perpetra-
tor, but efforts will be made to ascertain
more concerning the crime.

SAVANNAH BOMBS.
The Meeting In Charleston - How
the Compromise was Effected.

SAVANNAH, January 15.-E7itor Morning
NeaUs: As a matter in which the public
may feel an interest at this time, / beg to
give you the substance of the meeting in
Charleston of the bondholders Of Savannah,
which / attended. Prior to the meeting l
introduced Mr. D. G. Purse, Chairman of the
Finance Committee, to Mr.. Fl. II.
DeLeon, for the purpose Of get
ting him, as the most suitable
and influential man in Charleston, to further
the compromise and act as the agent of our
city. Mr.. DeLeon heard Mr.. Purses propo-
sition TO act as agent, but declined to CON-
NIT himself to advocating a scheme that
might fail or be changed; and said that he
was not prepared to make the compromise
at that time for himself and those
he represented. The meeting took
place at the First National Bank;
was large, comprising the most prominent
and wealthy citizens of Charleston. All
Savannah bondholders or their attorneys
were present. Mr.. Robert n. Gourdin in
troduced Mr.. Purse to the meeting as
gentleman whom he had known for many
years, and said that the bondholders of Sa-
vannah In Charleston could rely upon any
statements made by Mr.. Purse looking to
the acceptance of a five per cent. bond
offered by the city of Savannah. Mr.. Purse
arose and opened with the remark that he did
not come to Charleston with the view of
laying the blame upon the shoulders of any
one connected in the past with Savannah's
administrative affairs, as to how our city
was brought to its then present condition,
but that he was there to give information as
to how the city might extricate itself from
It's difficulties, and forcibly urged upon every
man present to accept the offer of the
city of Savannah of the issue of per cent
bond, having the guarantees that 1t would
have, for their seven per cent. bonds.
He stated that, in his judgment,
when a sufficient amount would be
made up to make the compromise
binding, he firmly believed that the new
bond would sell at highsr price, IN time,
than the seven per cent. had cost any one
present.
Prior to Mr.. PURSES visit to Charleston.
IS | have already intimated, the feeling was
most decidedly adverse to an acceptance
of the proposition OF five per cent. bond
by the city, but after his remarks and ex-
plantations, fortified by statistics. general
acceptance of the citY's proposition was ex-
pressed, and Mr.. DeLeon, now himself con-
WINGED OF it's perfect fairness, consented to
become the agent OF the city; and | learn
has proven the most valuable and success
full OF all the cty's financial representa-
tives In the volume and satisfactory
character of his labors. The prompt ac-
ceptance OF the compromise by the Charles
ton bondholders was, think, due to Mr..
Purses statements and exertions. and
paved the way FOR its acceptance generally.
which rapidly followed.
Yours, truly,
A. UUTENHoTRR.

THE CITY ELECTION.
Meeting of the RTagistrates-Ar-
rangements for the Election.


In accordance with the request of the
Mayor, all the Magistrates in the city as
sembled at the Exchange Saturday, at
twelve O'Clock, to make the necessary ar
engagements for the election on Tuesday
next. They were invited into the Mayors
Office, when Mayor Wheaton, addressing
them, stated that as the law designated
them as the managers for the cleo ton, he
had called them together for the purpose of
consultation, and to decide upon the prop
er course to pursue. Under a resolution of
Council he had appointed to carry out GER
tain details of the election Magistrate Isaac
Russell, and 1t remained with them now to
decide upon the regulations, etc. The
Mayor then retired. On motion, Magis-
trate Isaac Russell was called to the chair
and Magistrate Zenos l.. Strickland elected
secretary.
A full discussion then followed, and it
was determined to have four boxes so placed
that they would be under the supervision Of
all the managers at the same time; that any
violation of the law in the way Of illegal
voting, repeating, etc, could be looked after
by one and ALL and that when parties were
challenged, the following oath, as pre-
scribed by section 4. 1877 Of the new Code.
ouOuiu 10 ounAAhlStSISuJ auu the party so
obligating himself should be allowed to
vote. 1t the circumstances warranted his
arrest for illegal voting, then he could be
ordered under arrest by any of the Magis-
trates, and the additional charge OF false
swearing could be entered against him. The
following is the oath:
You do solemnly swear that you are a cit
lien OF the United States, that you have re-
sided In the State of Georgia for one year
immediately preceding this election, and
within the corporate limits Of the city of
Savannah for the last four months; that
you are 81 years Of age ; that you have paid
all taxes due the city Of Savannah, or have
In your own right sufficient real estate to
satisfy any executions against you; that
you have made ell returns required by the
ordinances of the city that you have been
duly registered within the time prescribed
by law and that you have not yet voted this
day. So help you God"
