ALEX ANDRIA.
THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 10.

THE GAzETTE's valued correspondent,
"Catholic," in his yesterdays criticism OF
the GAzErTEs article of the day before on
the difference between the Canadian and
American cardinals on the subject OF the
Pope's recent condemnation of the knights
of labor, included many points to which the
GAZETTE had made no reference. The GA
zErrE said nothing about the right or wrong,
economic, political or otherwise, OF the
knights of labor, nor of the power OF the
Pope, of the liberty of opinion and action OF
the Catholic Church, of st. Augustlne's
maxim, nor of the time and consideration
the Pope devotes to question before rem
dering his decision upon it. The GAZETTE
merely stated that according to popular be-
lief one great difference between the Cath
olic Church and the Christian churches form
ed since the Reformation is that While the
former is unit in its faith, the same in Sit
ka as in Capetown, the latter are as divided
as it is possible to be, and that as the organ
ization of knights of labor is the same In
Canada as in the United States, and as the
Pope's decision is, according to Catholic
faith, infallible, the natural deduction Is
that as the Pope says the knights are wrong
in Canada they must, in the eyes of all good
Catholics, be wrong in the United States, as
what is morally wrong on one side OF line
cannot be morally right on the other side.
That the Pope has given the required time
and attention to the question is proved by
the simple fact that he has rendered his de-
cision upon it, and that that decision has
been communicated to Cardinal Taschereau.

HURRICANE OFF CUBA.
THE SIGNAL BUREAU UNABLE
TO GET IT'S DIRECTION.

1t Is Reported East of II avana on Thurs
day-Two Directions 1t May Have
Taken-One Into the Gulf and the
Other Up the Coast-No Indications
of a Storm Here.
The threatening weather Of the past
day or two and the pressure OF hurri'
cane south OF here caused some excite
meut yesterday. At II O'Clock Corp.
Graham, of the signal station, sent out
the following bulletin received from the
chief signal office:
WASHINGTON. d. c., Sept. Is, 9:56 A, N.
Obse1 U4r. SIrTnNdh:
A West India hurricane reported southeast
of Key West; was east OF Havana on the af-
ternoon of Sept. l6. It's present loo ltion and
movement are uncertain. HAZEN.
This IS all the information that has
been received at the signal station about
it. The announcement of the hurricane
and its location were cabled to the Sig
nal Bureau at Washington from Cuba
yesterday morning. Bulletins -were at
once sent out to all operators in the South
asking II there were any indications of a
storm movement. There were none
here. The barometer was slight
ly above normal all day,
Wit h the usual fluctuations. There was
no perceptible fall in the mercury.
bulletin sent out by the signal Office and
posted at the MORNING NEWS building,
thought when the squat came up about
O'Clock last hight that the hurricane was
close by. The storm, however, was purely
local, but the officers at the signal sta
ton think 1t may have been caused
by the hurricane. The trouble that ex-
ists until more definite information Is had
Is TO ascertain exact location and move
n aof nf Ia
vana the last that was heard of it. 1t is
not known whether or not it has reached
Its apex. II 1t has 1t is likely to pass
either into the Gulf, in which case
1t Is quite probable that it will sweep
around in this direction, or 1t may 90 of
into the Atlantic and pass east of here.
The ii O'Clock reports from the Gulf sta
tons last night did not give any indica-
ton of it's presence, and the officer on
duty at the station said it Is possible that
the storm might have taken an easterly
direction and gone up the coast, or it may
have broken up altogether.
The characteristics of the West India
hurricane are it's violence and its uncer-
tain movement. 1t may remain station
airy for several days and then sweep on a.
terrific speed. AS soon as the forma-
ton of the hurricane can be learned the
Signal Bureau will be able to predict its
course.
There were rains all along the coast
yesterday and last night. The New York
steamship Nacoochee, which arrived last
night, reported heavy weather outside.
The weather was fair from the time of
leaving New York until Cape Hatteras
was rounded, when a n0rtheaster set in.
The passengers were pretty well shaken
up. There are no indications of a storm
to-day, and at midnight the barometer
was rising.
There was slight rise last night at
nearly all OF the coast and Gulf stations,
indicating fair weather. A sudden move
ment Of the hurricane centre. however.
may cause rapid falling in whichever
direction it moves.

LAFAYETTE IN SAVANNAH.
"A Venerable Quitmanite Who Ke-
members the Occasion.


Editor Morning Ne,cS: 1t has just been
remarked by one of our inmates: "HoW
awfully warm it isl' This remark in
duced peep at the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
quite 80 deg. This does not indicate very
warm weather for the middle Of Septem-
Der, but notice that there is no rustllng
among the leaves on the trees. Everv-
thing is as "still as the breeze;" not even
a shaking, and therefore | conclude that
it is owing not 80 much TO the intensity
of the heat as the lack of wind, for do
not remember to nave seen so little WIND
in the month of September so far.
While l confess deep sympathy for the
citizens OF our neighboring city OF
Charleston in all her unparalleled suffer
Ings, l am grateful, too, that your city.
the emporium of the State of Georgia, has
suffered less.
The writer, though now so years of age,
has very distinct recollection OF Savan-
nah when but O little boy. Along with
his father, time and again, he visited the
city to obtain many of the necessaries and
Injuries of life. These were the days of
small things TO Savannah, compared to her
present grand Improvements. Then the
principal business OF the citv was
done around the market square and north
to the river. The wholesale houses were
principally from Nos. ! IN s Gibbons
buildings, and there was no such thing as
the Pulaski House, or the Marshall or
Screven House. The Planters Hotel was
at that time the hotel of the CITY.
Sometimes | have very distinct recOi-
lection OF the men with whom my father
traded at the time-such men as Gildon,
CupDee and Others-and the late Thomas
HolcOmbe was boy about my own age
and size.
Your stately printing and publishing
house was not there to acorn the corner
OF Bay and Whitaker streets, nor was
there any other important public building
save the old Exchange. 1t was there the
writer, happening to be in the city,
pressed himself along with the crowd,
when the procession was formed in
the long room Of the Exchange to look
upon the venerable features of Gen. La
tayette and shake his hand. ! have al
ways been proud of the occasion and the
act. The next day the corner stone of the
Greene and Pulaski monument IN Johnson
square was laid. Gen. Lafayette was the
Grand Master OF the occasion, and the
following words were sung. to wit:
"Thou art a man to honor true,
And round thv brow will Irvine
The tender leaf Of green which grew
In days of Aud Lang Syne."
And the wreath in the hands of one of
SaYannah's beautiful daughters was fit
tingly and gracefully twned around the
head of the venerable man whose name
will ever be dear to Americans. The
words were sung to the tune, "Auld
Lang Syne.'
Should you ever wander as far as Quit
man inquire for Tranquil Hall or the
Sharpe House, and you will fnd the house
presided over by two old people who will
ne glad to see the editor of the MORNING
NEWS, and will treat him kindly. Our
prayer is that both your city and your
sister City by the Sea will be relieved tor
the future of any further shaking up.

Attractions for the Week The
Black Flag TO Morrow Night.
Wilson 4 Rankiu's Minstrels closed
their engagement last night before fair
Saturday night audience. The company
Is one of the best minstrel combinations
that visits savannah.
The next attraction will be the "Black
Flag" in which Mr.. Edward Thorne will
appear tomorrow and Tuesday nights.
The flag was presented here very success
fully last season. The story of the "Black
Flag" is OF the we'll known melo-drsmatic
kind, although far better written than
most OF its predecessors, The varying for
tunes of the hero, the temporary triumph
OF vice over viE&ue, followed eventually by
lasting vic@fy OF the latter over the
former, are smoothly told and transpire
with strong and occasional thrilling
effect.
The next attraction following the
"Black Flag" will be "Flash Light on

This is the season your minds are
naturally drawn towards schools and edu-
cation. The subject as to what depart
ment of education would prove most bene.
fetal is being fully and deliberately dis.
cussed. In the majority of cases the de-
cisiOn is in favor of practical and useful
course of study, the fruits of which can
be early gathered-a course that enables
the possessor to conduct business success
fully, or fill clerkships acceptably and
proftably.
The school of photography, boOkkeep-
ing, type writing and penmanship, con-
Quoted during the past two years at ia
Liberty street as night school, is espe-
cially devoted to these educational pur-
poses. The increase in the number of
scholars, has made it necessary TO open
day school in connection with the old re-
gime Young men and women in search
Of these branches of educational useful
ness, should avail themselves of the oppOr-
tunity thus offered.
A limited number of students can pro-
cure apartments at the school. G.. 5.

BUSY POLITICAL BEES.
KNIGHTS OF LABOR AND LIQUOR
DEALERS CRY QUITS.

Alderman Myers viii Not Accept
PIsce ON the Legislative Ticket-rhe
Men Whom the Liq0ur Dealers VIII
support-Talk About Renominating
the Old Ticket.
Political interest centres chiefly now IN
the coming Democratic mass meeting
The situation is probably as we'll known
as it will be until the meeting has been
held and the nominations have been MADE
The legislative ticket agreed upon at
caucus between a committee OF hnlgnts
of Labor and the liquor dealers last week
did not suit both factions and two oil the
names on the ticket were dropped. Inc
third declined a nomination. On FRIDAY
Mr.. l.. =. Ashby was put on by the
Knights of Labor and said he would ac-
cept.
Alderman Myers, who was named
as possible candidate, and
who. it was understood, would
accept a nomination, SAID yesterday
that no nomination had been rendered
him, but that q committee, which he sup
posed was made up OF Knights OF Labor,
called upon him and asked him II he
would accept a nomination were 1t ten
dered him. The committee desired to
present his name at the mass meeting
next week. He told the committee that
IL would be impossible for him to accept
the honor were it rendered. Mr.. Myers,
who is President of the Liquor Dealers
Association, went on to say further that
the association. since his connection with
it, has not taken an active interest in
politics, and it will undoubtedly abstain
from politics in the future, unless cand1-
dates favorable to the passage OF sumptu-
ary laws are nominated.
1t Is pretty we'll understood that the
liquor dealers will withdraw from any
alliance that they may have formed with
the Knights, and that they will support
ticket that the knights Will not. There
is desire among influential Democrats
TO reuominate the old ticket.
The liquor men, 1t is under
stood, will support Capt. Gordon,
and perhaps Col. Reilly, but they
prefer either Capt. Falligant or William
Clifton for the third man. The Knights
are opposed to lawyer being on the
ticket. Some of them say that they are
willing, however, TO support the old
ticketl In preference to any yet named.
A prominent Knight, abiding to the
statement that when two men are candi-
dates for the same place and one is a
Knight and the other is not, the
order is sworn to support the
Knight, said last night that this is
not true. He quoted from Powderly's
law, which says: alt is not compulsory
to vote for brother for any public office;
In choosing members for the Assembly,
choose none but men whom it would be
an honor to vote for for any position"
A meeting of a committee Of Knights
was held last night, but it is understood
that no definite action was taken towards
filling up the ticket headed by Mr.. Ashby.

The TelfaIr Academy is one ofthe sights
of the city, and to all visitors cause of
qualification to be able to inspect its beau
ties and pass pleasant hour or two
among the High Arts. But there are
other places in the city where our citi
Zens and strangers can while away a
passing hour and find 1t to their benefit
looking at Art goods, which, although not
classed as High Art, make beneficial
and lasting impression. The merchants
in our city are now making an unusual
display to attract the attention of BUYERS,
and a stroll through the streets Will prove
to any interested parties that the enter
prise and push of the merchants of Savau-
nah should be appreciated by the public
at large. | stepped INTO Emil A.
Schwarz's, at 125 and 127 Broughton
street, yesterday, and certainly | never
witnessed such display of Carpets and
Furniture as be has packed in his large
warero0ms. The markets of the world
seem to have been rausacked to furnish
novelties TO satisfy the tastes of buyers.
The English market is represented by the
largest manufacturer of Carpetings in the
world, viz: John Crossley & sons, whose
mandatory gives employment TO over
5000 employees, and whose goods are re
nOwntd the world over. The Scotch
Kidderminster and Turkoman Ingrains
win their twisted filling and Persian col.
0rings are as pretty a bedroom carpet as
can be found, and TIE prices are most
reasonable. In Madras, TambnuT, Bull
garian Lace, Nottingham and Turkoman
Curtains they seem complete. Also fuil
line of Shades are open for inspection.
By invitation | assembled to his Furniture
Warero0ms and MIR. Lane, his courteous
salesman, explained the many new novel
ties he has on hand. He mentioned the
fact OF his selling full line OF Bedroom
suits at cost, and If am any judge should
say that they are bargains for all VINO
wish any OF these goods. Mr.. Schwarz
informed me that he is always willing to
give liberal accommodations as to terms
OF payment to all responsible parties who
might wish them. Another fact he says
he wants to impress on the public is that
ne is tn only importer and seller OF Cross
iey's Carpets in this city, and he is max
ing a speciality OF these goods.

AN ENORMOUS SHIPMENT.
A special Train of Flour to Sa-
Vanuah Firm.


1 A few days ago, in our trade issue, we
drew attention to the growth Of Savsn-
nah's trade, her resources and the enter
| prise of her merchants, We now give
our readers forcibe illustration of some
OF Savannah's gigantic transactions.
Messrs. S. Guckenheimer h Son, Of this
city, few days since, received tele-
graphic information OF large purchases
OF -four made by Mir. S. Guckenheimer,
senior mem Der OF the firm, who is at pre-
sent visiting the milling districts of the
West. Last night at 7:40 o'clock
special train, consisting OF % carloads OF
20 barrels each, making the large amount
OF $500 barrels of flour, left st. Louis for
savannah. This train Is consigned TO
Messrs. ;. Guckenheimer d Son. Each
car is placarded on both sides, bearing the
following inscriptions: especial Train OF
Flour, % carloads, for 5. Guckenheimer
son, Savannah, Ga" The train left via
the Louisville and Nashville railroad and
Will come via Nashville, Chattanooga,
Atlanta and Macon. Officials of the va
rious railroads over which this enormous
freight Will come are taking spec al pride
In It's transportation, and 1t is pleasing TO
note the interest taken by them In the same.
The firm is kept informed, by telegraph,
Of its arrival at important stations along
JHe line. 1nrOuSn the courtesy OF JDe
officials of the Central railroad the tram
will leave Macon the following morning
after Its arrival there, so as to pass down
the line to Savannah in the daytime. A
representative of the firm Will meet the
train at Macon and escort it to Savannah,
stopping at the principal stations so as to
give the patrons and friends of the house
an opportunity of seeing the same. The
st. Louis Market Reporter, in comment
ing upon the business of the week, claims
it the only noteworthy transaction. Due
notice will be given of the arrival OF the
train and an effort will be made to have
1t remain solid tor at least day here, so
that the public may see it in It's original
state.
Messrs. S. Guckenh elmer & Son deserve
much credit tor their enterprise and for
bringing Savannah's mercantile adyan-
tages 80 prominently before the people,
Flour is one OF their specialties, and they
have made 1t study tor a great many
years. Their present stock in Savannah,
together with shipments in transit ire
spective OF this train, is between three
and four thousand barrels, thus making
their stock after the arrival of the train
between six and seven thousand barrels.
These figures alone should forcibly illus
trate the magnitude of their business in
this line.
