A Muss About the Misters Of Mcclure
Street.

It is an off Sunday when Yamacraw can
not furnish an item for Mondays paper.
Yesterday was not an off Sunday. The
trouble this time was on Mcclure street,
and occurred at about $50 o'clock last
night, creating the usual excitement and re-
suiting in visitation by policeman ana
the arraignmeut Of Robert Finley at the
bar of the police headquarters hall hour
later Ten or fifteen minutes afterward
mulatto woman came in with very black
eye and deep gnsl across the bridge OF
her olfactory organ. The wreck OF her
face, she said was the work Of Finley, who
stood patiently listening to the details she
gave Of the assault. HIS face
was by no means thing of beauty,
for it bore traces Of having been well
scratched by the finger nails OF the irate
Angelo. In fact when Mary had her say
Finley said she had reached over the banis-
tiers and destroyed a 81 hat and then in
trying to scratch his eyes out had SCARED
his face all mp He wanted satisfaction.
Finley, 1t appears, had told the woman
that in speaking of a white friend OF his
she should say Mr., and not call him by his
given name. She gave Finley to under
stand that she had a handle TO her
name, and when Fineys friend addressed
her as Mrs Angelo she would skirmish
around and try and fad handle for his
name. Then the war began, in which Mays
statement to Sergeant Reilly was TO the
effect that Finley bclabored her over the
nose with rattan cane, knocked her down
and kicked her. She was covered with
blood when she reached tho barracks.
Finley, VINO is n white man, and next door
of Angelo, was locked up to await
a hearing in the mayors court this morning,
and the woma was permitted to return
home Hot weather has re1ched Yamacraw,
and solar wave in Yamacraw always
mean blood. An officer said last night that
a thermometer in Ynmacraw yesterday
would have melted.

PEOPLE WHO RENT HOMES.

They Do Not Have an Easy Time Find
ing Them in Savannah.
Interviews with the principal agents for
the renting of residences Indicate that there
is greater number of smaller tenements
for rent at the present time than for many
years.
The agents say there are very few desira-
Bile residences vacant, however, the demand
always being good for the better class of
houses. There are always some houses va
cant, and If there are greater number of
the better class of houses vacant. about
which opinions differ, it is largely due to the
fact that wherever a house is built in tho
southern part of the city, one is vacated
further down town. and a large number of
new residences has gone up in the growing
part OF the city the past year, many of the
homes being secured through the opportu-
mites afforded by the building associations.
Toe disposition is 20 build a better class
OF houses, although the growth OF the city
has been such As To warrant the building of
10th the better and the cheaper class of
houses, and agents expect to see very few
vacant houses in the city by the time the
cotton crops begin 10 come in and business
becomes more active. 1t would be better
for the tenant class II there was even less
demand for houses, said one gentleman, but
heretofore there has been very little sur
plasage Good houses have always found
ready tenants and whenever the demand
falls off TO any appreciable extent, revision
or the rent prices regulates matters
