MAYS HEAVY TRAVEL.
The Hotels Doing a Rushing Business
and Where it Comes from.

and Where it Comes from.
The hotels are having a big run. and it lie
estimated by hOtel men that the increase in
the number OF guests over last May up TO
this time will range from % to 10 per cent
Sixty and seventy arrivals daily have been
registered.
Much of this travel comes from Florida,
aud the travellers are FlOridians who come to
Savannah to take passage by the Ocean
steamship line for the north, the magnifi-
cent steamers of the line being the attrac-
ton. 1t is beginning to be generally
understood that nc more elegantly ar
ranged, comfortable and swift steamships
are afloat than the vessels Of this line, aud
one instance yesterday was noted where a
party Of Fioridians, having purchased
tickets by another line &c New York. dis
posed of them aud bought ticket. over the
Ocean Steamship Line.
There is a large increa.e In the number oil
commercial travellers from the north and
west and many strange faces among the
number. Sample rooms are asked for and it
is learned that they have been well pleased
with the amount OF orders received. The
growth Of the city, its increasing commerce,
the enlargement of tributary territory by
the building of the Savannah and Western
and Alabama Midland, and the prospect of
the South Bound road being built in time to
move the growing crops OF rich agrlcul-
turai section, not hitherto tributary TO Sa-
vannah, have combined TO stimulate trade,
and have attracted the attention Of many
of the large wholesale houses of the north
and west, which have not heretofore looked
after trade in this section.
1t is claimed by many that the closing Of
the De Soto s. early in the season was a
mistake, and the thriving business done by
the other hotels is assigned as the reason
why the De Soto should have. at least. kept
open during the month of May.

.SNELSON'S CASE OFF.
THE PERJURY CHARGES AG AINST
THE PREACHER DISMISSED.

The Tutty Case Called at Hinesville
but Tutty and His Washington Wife
Fail to Appear and Their Bonds are
Forfeited-The Next Step in the Case
Now Looked For.
Judge Falligant returned yesterday
morning from Liberty county. The Liberty
superior court was in session Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday.
The business of the term was not as large
as had been anticipated Only three or
four indictments were found.
The perjury case against Floyd Snelson.
the colored politician and ex-minister to
Liberia, was dismissed on demurrer by
his counsel. Hon. F. g. duBignon. Mr. du-
Bignon demurred co the indictment on the
principal ground that the alleged perjury
was not committed in legal proceeding,
and to sustain charge of perjury the in
dictment must show that the false oath had
been uttered in a legal proceeding. The
perjury was also denied in general The
court sustained the demurrer and discharged
Snelson. The indictment grew out of the
Mclver contested election case
THE TUTTY CASE.
Charles Tutty and Rosa Ward failed to
appear to answer TO the charge OF
fornication, and rules absolute were taken
on their bonds given when the case first
came up in the superior court. Their bonds,
given when the case was taken by them to
the United States court in this city, were
estreated. William Tutty, a brother of
Charles Tutty, is surety on the bonds.
TuUty and the Ward woman were repre-
sented by William Posse, ESQ.,, as counsel.
Mr.. Pease informed MORNING NEWS re-
porter yesterday that his clients had prom
ised to be in court; and when he found they
had put in an appearance, he urged
Tutty's brother to telegraph TO Savannah
for them, which was done, but no reply
was received.
Mr.. Pease says that the Tuttys have not
helped their case, but, on the contrary, have
madeit worse, as the mere forfeiture of the
bonds does not release them from arrest and
prosecution, whereas by appearing and
pleading guilty to the indictment they
would not have had the bonds to pay, and
the fines only would have been charged
against them. They are also in contempt,
and bench warrant may be issued at any
time against them. Tutty and the woman
Rosa live on the Ogeechee road near Lavinia
street, in the southern extension, or did
last week.
THE CASE A NOTED ONE.
The case has become a celebrated one,
and the woman made a pilgrimage to
Washington city to invoke federal inter
ference, but unavailingly. Tutty and Rosa
claim to have been legally married IN
Washington city, but Georgia does not
recognize as valid marriage be-
tween the white and black race.
The case went to the United States
court in Savannah and Judge Speer
sustained the states position and remanded
the case to the superior court of Liberty
county. An effort was made to take it to
the supreme court of the United States and
the record was printed but it is believed
that the court of last resort refused to con-
slider it,and the effort of Tutty to enjoin the
collection of the bonds failed.

KIRKLEY IN YAMACRAw,
The Colored Preacher Boards Satan
In Coopershop Lane.

The Colored Preacher Boards Satan
In Coopershop Lane.
Walter Kirkley has undertaken hercu-
lean task, the conversion of the denizens of
Coopershop lane, and yesterday, bare
headed and earnest, he stood on Farm
street, near the entrances to the malodorous
lane. and like knight in armor challenged
the hosts of Satan, and pleaded eloquently
with the frail and fallen to turn from the
error of their ways, stop going to ruin and
gather round him and unite in prayer to
Almighty God to have mercy on them and
lead them in better paths than those of vice
and sin.
It was curious scene. and the evangelist
had an audience such as can only be at
tracted in such quarters. There were idlers
and loungers, crap-shooters, skin-players,
sneak thieves, wharf-ratsi and lewd and i'll
clad women of the evangelist's own race.
Some listened at a distance, and the philip
pics against drunkenness and the various
crimes which it engenders were received
with varying emotions. Some listened
with apparent interest, but others scoffed,
and remarks more vigorous than elegant
ran rouud.
There was quite sprinkling of curious
white listeners, and among them none paid
closer attention than Alderman Falligant.
He was returning to the city from an in
spection of the drainage work at Musgrove
creek, and, attracted by the oddity of an
open air sermon to the classes to whom it
was directed, stopped and listened with
manifest interest, and as he turned away at
the close of the meeting he remarked to a
