emma Schmidt Valves .Examina-
ton on the Charge of Shooting
Durham.
Emma Schmidt. who shot Morris Dur
nam, was arraigned before Judge Ma
honey in the municipal court yesterday
upon the charge of assault in the first
degree. Emma looked pale and nervous,
and it was apparent that she had Suf-
fered considerable mental anxiety since
her confinement In the county Jail.
When the case was called Attorney j.
A. Kellogg waived an examination for
Emma, and said he was willing to have
the case go to the grand jury. AS
Emma was not able, Or, rather, did not
wish to give bail, Judge Mahoney said
that he would leave the matter of bail
with the district court. 1t is understood
that prominent business man offered
to so on Emna's bond, but for the pres
ent, at least, his offer was refused.
Simon O'Malley and Lou De Young
were arrested by Officer Haben in
a house at 1924 Thirteenth ave-
nue. south and locked up in
the central station on the charge of for
nication. When the prisoners were ar
raigned before the court it could not be
shown that the woman Was single, and
the case was dismissed. Frank Rogers
and Ole Larson engaged in fight near
the Lumber EXchangeWe night
and were gathered in by the police on
the charge OF disorderly conduct. AS it
appeared that Rogers was the aggressor
he was fined $40, and Larson was dis
charged. James Flood, who has been
before the court several times for
drunkenness, was sent to the work
house for sixty days on the old charge.
Mary Clark was given thirty days for
the same offense. James Mclean
pleaded guilty to stealing lot OF wear
ing apparel belonging to Gilbert Hagen,
Martin johnson and Olaf MOnsOn. and
was sent to the stone quarry for thirty
days.

"Were these two the only times when
he talked of money?'
Yes, think so.'
WHO came along when you and
Elliott were talking near the elevator?
MY brother, Peter MCGOWAN
What MCGOWAN afterward said to his
brother of the talk between him and
Elliott, which Benton tried to intro
duce, was ruled out.
''Did you see Elliott before the matter
came up in the councilr'

said no. He said he had no ground for
saying that Aid. Brueshaber and my

he had made no affidavits on that
matter. Charles Fox was with me.
| heard what Mr.. Shaw testified to to-
day. When | went to see him, he said
Mr.. Elliott was not going before that in
vestigating committee unless he had to,
and said | wished he would go before
the committee and tell the TRUTH
About $50 Mr.. Jamison began to
cross-examine the defendant. Nc
Gowan stated that Aid. Cole had intro
duced him to Elliott. and they said they
wanted to get street vacated in
his ward. Soon after MCGOWAN said
he went down on the river bank with
Shaw to look over the ground. They
did not tell him how much of the street
they wanted vacated. MCGOWAN also
denied that. when they went to look at
Water street, Shaw q Elliott had told
him they only wanted the southerly
half of the street. McGowan also re-
fused to swear that Emerson Cole had
told him that Shaw & Elliott only
wanted half of the street. He claimed
that he always was given to understand
that Shaw Il Elliott wanted the whole
/ street. and on that ground he had op-
posed them.
Court then adjourned, and Nc
Gowan's cross-examination will be fin
ished to-day. The case will probably
occupy two days more.

TRADE'SBRIGHTOUTLOOK
BETTER BUSINESS AND DIMINISH
ING DEBTS OVER TIE SOUTH.

Georgia Leads in Prosperity Fifty
one Less Failures Last Year than
the Year Before, and Debts Dimin-
ished Over 81 ,ooo,oOo-An Branches
of Trade Prospecting, and the Reason
Why Corporations Springing Up
Rapidly, and Resources Being De-
veloped.
Every pulsation of trade in Savannah and
in Georgia is felt by the mercantile agen-
cies whose headquarters are here. With a
view of obtaining facts and figures from so
reliable bureau of commercial informa-
tion, MORNING NEWS reporter called yes
terday on Mr.. c. o. Drummond. manager
Of Dun's agency, and in the course of an
interview Mr.. Drummond said that during
the year 1889 the amount of business done
in the city and state has been most salts
factory, and its results eminently so.
THE number of failures last year was
151, with liabilities of S1,627,945. This is
an improvement, in every way, on previous
years. Compared with 1855, the failures
show decrease of 81, and debts diminished
by over 81, 100000 while, if 1884 be taken
as basis for comparison, there is an i'm
provement of over so per cent. in the sum
total of liabilities. In point of fact, Georgia
leads all the other states, and her position
may be justly estimated when it is said that
in Rhode Island, which is neither SO popu-
lous nor so extensive, the failures last year,
though only 100 in number. were accom-
panied by liabilities of over $40, 000,0 900.
The cause of our prosperity said Mr..
Drummond, lilies mostly in this, that the
natural wealth of the state was never so
keenly appreciated nor SO skilfully utilized.
In turpentine alone very large sums of
money have been made, cotton has been
treated as merchandise and not as an object
Of speculation, and there have been great
advances in the development Of the mineral
resources of the state.
Among retail dealers there has been an
increasing appreciation of the value of
prompt settlements, and while the sharp
northern drummer has been abroad, i'll
many cases with results satisfactory to his
employers, still Savannah, Atlanta, Au-
gusta, and Macon have more than held
their own. The grocery trade of Savannah
has been good; retailers appear to know
that they can be as well served here as in
any other place, and their patronage is not
only we'll deserved, but likely to be re-
tanned.
Corporations are springing up rapidly,
and though such forms of association have
SOIl1SIllleo Deeu dDuseu, eAS yen 06OESld nus
sustained no injuries, and mas derived many
advantages from the organization of CAPT
tai and ability in corporate form"
Mr.. Drummond added that, though there
have been few failures at the opening of
the present year, these are by no means
sign of general weakness, and the places of
those who have fallen by the wayside will
soon be taken by strong and capable re-
cruits.
Tn conclusion Mr. nr,,p,Dopd cold That
in every department the tone of business is
good, and it appears certain that, with a
continuance of present conservative and
honorable methods this section of the south
will advance steadily and surely in amount
of business and of wealth.

CoRNERED AND ROBBED.
Two Women arrested for Robbing a
Couple OF street. Peddlers.

Two Women ARRESTED for Robbing q
Couple OF Street Peddlers.
A queer case of robbery came up in JUS
tice Sheftalrs court yesterday. Ella Malone
and Sarah McCracken, both white, were
charged with seizing goods from the baskets
Of two street peddlers. 1t was claimed that
they refused to pay for the goods or to re-
turn them. The queer part Of the charge is
that the women are the wives of an expo
liceman and an ex-COast Line conductor.
When they were brought into court their
husbands did not appear at the trial, and
the women were sent to jail. The peddlers
were robbed the same day, but at different
times. The prosecutors were Harris
Krayish aud n. L. Gordan.
The peddlers' story or the affair is that
the women were implicated with another
white woman, negro woman, and white
man, all of whom helped themselves to
whatever they wanted. KraVish, who was
the first victim. said that Tuesday morning
as he was passing a house at Waldburg and
Price streets, a colored woman came out Of
the gate, aud kravish asked her if she
wanted to buy anything The woman re-
piled that the people in the house might
wait something, and asked him to step
inside kravisn went in, and was
shown into a small back room,
where the women were sitting. He
spread his wares out on the floor and the
women began to help themselves right and
left. Kravish thought they were fooling at
first, and he paid little attention to them.
When he came TO leave, however, they re-
fused to give the goods back to him. He
began to remonstrate, when man came in
the door ana told him that if he did not get
out he would kill him.
Gordon came along half hour later. A
colOred woman was standing in the yard,
he said, and he asked her if she wanted to
buy anything. She asked him into the
house too, telling him that the
folks inside wanted something. Gordon
said that he went in, and was also shown
to rear room, where he met three white
women. He began TO show his wares, when
the women began to seize them. He threw
the articles back into the basket, and ran
out.
When served with the warrants the
women came to the magistrates office
quietly. They protested their innocence,
and while they acknowledged that the ped
dlers were in their house at the time
alleged, they said that they did not modest
them. The peddlers went out unframed,
and their baskets were as full as when they
entered. They claimed that it was a put
up job on them The women say that the
same story was told by both peddlers, and
it is plain that they are in collision.
When the arresting officer went to the
house pointed out by the peddlers he found
only two women. The colored woman was
not to be found, nor was the man or the
other woman. The peddlers did not
know the names of the two women before
they were arrested, but as soon as the officer
brought them out, Kravish and Gordon
recognized them. A warrant was sworn
out for the colored woman, the other white
woman, and also for the man. The man
was charged with pointing pistol at Kra-
wish. He will be arrested to-day.

Some days ago a colored woman from
Beaufort took lodgings at the lodging house
of J. j. Guerard, a colored barber, on
Bryan street. She left fine double-case
gold watch under her pillow, aud did not
miss it until she was on her way home to
Beaufort. When she reached there she
sent back word to her son-in-law to recover
the property aud send it to her. Guerard
was applied to, but he had heard nothing of
the loss nor the finding of the watch. Sus-
pecting Julia Moore, a colored chamber
maid in his wife's employ, he asked her
about the watch, but she denied any
knowledge Of it, He was provoked to learn
that any property left In his house should be
missing, and as Julia had made the bed
after the Beaufort woman had left the
house he put the matter in Detective Weth-
erhorn's hands, and he recovered the watch
from the suspected chambermaid yester-
day. The loser of the property is not in
the olty, and no prosecution has been insti-
tuted

Insane Missionary Powell Cuts the
Throat OF His Child.
Fronl &c Melo York IKorld.

FROM inc NelO IOfk " ora.
RALEIGH, n. c., Jan. 6.-News has been
received here that Carson L. Powell, indie
pendent Baptist missionary to Algiers,
North Africa, from Fair Bluff, n. c., had
murdered his daughter. He had been in an
insane asylum here before he went abroad,
and three months ago his mental condition
became so bad that ne was placed in q hos
pital in Algiers. He afterward appeared
TO be improved, and was released. He
went out distributing Bibles Dec. 81, re-
turned to his house, took up his Bible, and
began reading. Little Ruth, his 3-year-old
daughter. sat on MS knee, as was her Gus
tom, and was prattling to him, when he
suddenly took a knife from his pocket and
cut her throat. DR.. Leech Of New York,
who is also missionary working with
Powell, happened to be ia the house at the
time, and did everything possible to save
the life of the child, but without avail.
Powell is now confined in the French hos
pital in Algiers.
Powell had frequently given evidence of
possessing an unsound mind. Once at the
Baptist state convention here he demanded
that ne be sent to Africa as missionary, but
his application was refused. He procured
some gayly colored calico, ribbons and hair
pins, returned to the church, went iato the
basement, stripped himself of his clothing,
wrapped the calico and ribbons about him,
fastening them to his body by sticking pins
deep into the flesh, and then walked into the
auditorium while the convention was in ses-
sion. He secured some work as missionary
in North Carolina, and while travelling met
young woman in Cleveland. They became
engaged. The day preceding the one set
for the marriage he tried on his wedding
suit and found the coat too small. He re-
garded this as an indication from the Lord
that he shonld not marry, and positively re-
fused to fulfill the engagement. His hance
became insane over this and after ward died
in an insane asylum in Raleigh. He went
to Algiers three years ago. New York
friends paid hisI expenses, and two young
men of that city named Beach aud May
nard accompanied him. Maynard will
